Abstract | ||||
Recently, in Egypt, poultry production has become an industry, rather than an agricultural activity. Increasing consumer demand for affordable animal protein has led to a rise in broiler meat production. However, there are many Challenges facing the poultry industry. To face these Challenges, we will need to increase the efficiency of primary production of higher food quality and quantity. Using some herbal plants, such as ginger or cinnamon, has been rapidly progressing in different scientific areas, particularly in poultry breeding, in order to increase performance and production. Studies showed that medicinal herbal supplements, ginger, and cinnamon have favorable effects on both human and animal health due to their active components, medicinal and antioxidant ingredients. It can be concluded that using ginger or cinnamon as ration supplements for broilers with various levels will have an excellent impact on growth performance, especially in terms of body weight gain, feed consumption, and feed conversion ratio, and also the overall performance of broilers | ||||
