Abstract :

In the poultry sector, the use of antibiotics as a growth promoter is widespread but these cause antimicrobial resistance in both humans and animals. The use of phytobiotics as an alternative approach is increasing as they are natural, harmless, and pure rather than synthetic antibiotics. They have positive effects when used as growth promoters, antimicrobials, antioxidants, and immunomodulators in poultry.
