Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLippia multiflora (Verbenacae, Mold.) Leaves Dietary Supplementation Effect on Broiler Chickens’ Growth, Hematological Parameters, and Serum BiochemistryKelemin Awa Koné, Tagouèlbè Tiho, Yapo Magloire Yapi, Vama Etienne TiaThe continued overuse of synthetic antibiotics has led to microbial resistance, responsible for numerous therapeutic failures in both animal and human health. This resistance has prompted the search for natural alternatives to the use of synthetic antibiotics in the poultry sector. The essay evaluated Lippia multiflora (Lm) leaves’ effects on chickens’ growth, health, and fatty acid profile. The rearing lasted … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2026 · 429 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydroponic Fodder in Broiler Nutrition: Effects on Economics of Production, Environmental Impacts, Productive Indices, and Health StatusChristian Anayo Mbajiorgu, Ifeanyichukwu Princewill Ogbuewu, Monnye MabelebeleThe projected global population of 9.7 billion by 2050 will escalate the demand for animal protein, intensifying food insecurity. Broilers, being highly efficient in converting grains into protein-rich food, are crucial in meeting the ever-increasing demand for animal proteins. However, broiler production, especially in developing countries, is constrained by low quality and unavailability of conventional feed grains utilized in poultry … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,694 accessesView PDF Cite
