Abstract

This experiment was conducted in the poultry field belonging to the Agricultural Research and Experimentation Station at the College of Agriculture / Karbala for the period from 10/6/2022 until 11/9/20123. The current study aimed to demonstrate the effect of using different levels of aqueous extract of clove powder added to drinking water and its effect on some productive traits of broiler chickens. A cage with dimensions of 1.5 x 1 m, with 30 chicks for each treatment, with three replicates of the treatment (10 chicks for each replicate), and with four treatments, namely T1, the control treatment without any addition. As for treatments T2, T3, and T4, aqueous extract of clove powder was added to it in three concentrations (10, 20, and 30). ml/liter of drinking water, respectively. The results of the experiment indicated a significant improvement (p≤0.05) in the productive characteristics of the clove powder aqueous extract treatments. Treatment T4 (30 ml/liter of drinking water) witnessed a significant improvement (p≤0.05) in body weight and weight gain and an increase in the food conversion factor with a decrease Significant (p≤0.05) in the percentage of deaths, compared to the control treatment.
