English Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of using different levels of Ginger rhizome powder (GRP) and Turmeric rhizome powder (TRP) on production performance in laying hens.

Ninety 103-week old laying hens were divided into 5 treatments in a completely randomized design with 3 replicates and 6 birds in each cage.

The birds were fed a corn-soybean meal based diet containing different concentrations of GRP (1 and 3 %) and TRP (1 and 3 %) and control (0 %).

During 9 weeks of experimental period, the data of production parameters were collected.

The results indicated that the inclusion of GRP into the diets increased egg production percent, egg mass, feed intake.

As a result of this study, supplementation with ginger (GRP1 %) might have some positive effects on production performance of laying Hens.
