Abstract
A study was conducted to investigate the effect
of dietary supplementation of neem leaf powder
on growth performance of Japanese quail. A
total of 200 day old Japanese quail chicks were
utilized for this study. Dietary treatments
consisted of 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1% Azadi-
rachta indica powder added to the basal diet.
Highly significant difference (P<0.01) in body
weight was observed upto fourth week of age.
Fifth Week body weight, feed conversion ratio
and livability of quails at different periods were
not influenced by the dietary treatments. It is
concluded that dietary supplementation of 0.5%
neem leaf powder induced significant improve-
ment in body weight upto fourth week of age of
