Abstract

  The continuous impressive growth in poultry sector is due to the technological intervention and breakthrough in terms of scientific feeding, breeding, management and health care by use of non-conventional feed and fodder resources to reduce the feeding cost as well as alternate feed resources for poultry. Sea buckthorn leaf meal is one of them, which is extensively used as non-conventional feed resources especially in the North western Himalayan regions. Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.), an ancient shrub belongs to the family Elaeagnaceae has recently gained worldwide attention and popularity mainly due to its nutritional and medicinal value as the leaves, berries, pulp and seed contains different kinds of essential nutrients and bioactive compounds including vitamin A, B₁, B₁₂, C, E, and K; flavonoids, tocoferols, lycopene, carotenoids, and phytosterols. The sea buckthorn leaf meal is rich with various types of potent growth promoters, antioxidants, and antibacterial, antiviral and immuno-modulation properties. Dietary supplementation of sea buckthorn leaf meal leads to improving quality and quantity of egg production performances, immune-modulation, and longevity, health performance, breeding performances, while improving the growth rate, carcass quality, immunity, health status and longevity in broiler birds.
