Effect of neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf powder supplementation on haemato-biochemical parameters in broilers

The experiment was conducted for 6 weeks on 120 day old broiler chicks, divided into four groups T0, T1, T2 and T3, which were supplemented with neem leaf powder @ 0gm, 1gm, 2gm and 3gm/kg of broiler ration, respectively. The haemato-biochemical studies were conducted from 3^rd to 6^th weeks of the experimental period. The study revealed significant increase in Hb, TEC, TLC, lymphocyte count, total protein, serum albumin and non-significant increase in the serum globulin values, while SGOT and SGPT levels decreased significantly in the treatment grpups as compared to that of control group.
