Abstract: 

The experiment is done in a private poultry farm located in Al-Jalaa Which Is 30 KM East of Dier Ezor. The experiment studied the impact of the addition of garlic powder on the production parameters of broilers, in a private poultry farm east of Deir-Ezzor in 2020. the research was conducted on (240) chicks from the commercial Hubberd. The experimental birds were divided randomly into four groups, each group containing (60) chicks. The first group was the control. It was given an approved fodder mixture without adding garlic powder to it. The second, third and fourth experimental groups were given the same feed mixture that was provided to the control with the addition of garlic powder in proportions of (1 – 2 – 3) kg per 100 kg of feed, respectively. The following productive indicators were studied: (average live weight – average gain weight, average amount of feed – feed conversion coefficient – mortality rate). The results showed a significant superiority in the average live weight in the fourth group added to its feed mixture 3 kg of garlic per 100 kg of feed, as the average live weight was (2631.1) g. The differences were also significant with regard to the weekly weight gain and the rate of feed consumption, which led to a significant superiority in the feed conversion coefficient, reaching (2.34) in the control group and (2.12) in the fourth group. Witness This is evidence of an improvement in the productive and immune status of birds when garlic powder is added to their feed mixture.
