dc.description.abstractAntibiotic are called antimicrobial growth promoters used in poultry feed. It has been proven that supplementation of antibiotics in the diets reduces morbidity and mortality. Turmeric also improved the feed efficiency and overall growth performance in chickens. However the routine use of this antimicrobial growth promoteris being curtailed in view of threat to public health occurring through microbial resistance to antibiotics. Antibiotics are banned by the European Union during 2006 due to the consequences of antimicrobial resistance. As a need of these antibiotics in poultry industry, the industry is in the stage to find new alternative for the antibiotics. One comparable alternative is natural sources of herbs and medicinal plants known as phytobiotics. For last twenty years this alternative have been increasingly claimed to increase the gut health and stimulate digestive system and enhances the performance and health status. In this review responses of poultry diets supplemented with turmeric on growth performance, blood parameter and carcass character were briefly discussed.en_US
