Herbal non-conventional feed resources (NCFR) may serve as safer alternatives as growth promoters due to their suitability and preference, lower cost of production, improved feed efficiency, fast growth, reduced mortality, reduced risk of diseases, minimum health hazards and environmental friendliness [24]. Feed alone contributes to 60 to 70 percent of total cost of rearing of livestock and poultry. Protein is the most expensive nutrient, by introducing new protein source in breeder and their post hatch diet, we can certainly decrease the cost of production [1]. Therefore, the production economy can be improved mainly by minimizing the feed cost by herbal feed supplementation or utilization of NCFR. Now days, One such plant which can be exploited as NCFR in India and worldwide is "Sea buckthorn" (Hippophae rhamnoides L.).
