Description features of pharmacology of the drug Kufestrol in increasing productivity of broiler chicks
Abstract
This scientific article presents the effects of kufestrol, a phytoestrogen drug extracted from the Ferula Kuhistanica plant, on the poultry organism. As a result of the use of Kufestrol drug, effects on the live weight, absolute, average daily growth and food consumption of broiler chicks were determined in the experiments. Morphological (erythrocytes, hemoglobin, leukocyte) and biochemical (total protein, albumin, globulin, calcium, phosphorus, glucose) parameters of the blood of chicks treated with the drug were determined. The information that Kufestrol, used through experiments, has a positive effect on the physiological condition of broiler chicks is cited. As a result of the use of the Kufestrol drug in broiler chickens, their viability was 98%, and meat productivity was 25.8% higher than in control groups.
