Abstract
In conclusion, this small scale study provides additional evidence that phytogenic efficacy in broilers depends on the feed inclusion level used and the broiler growth period with most of the PFA overall beneficial effects seen mainly in the finisher growth period. Further work is warranted in order to evaluate phytogenic efficacy with different basal diets and under commercial production conditions.
