Project Abstract

Abstract
The poultry industry is continually seeking sustainable and effective strategies to improve growth performance and gut health in poultry production. Probiotics have emerged as a promising alternative to antibiotics, aiming to enhance growth and promote gut health in poultry without the drawbacks associated with antibiotic use. This study investigates the effect of probiotics supplementation on growth performance and gut health in poultry. The research begins with a comprehensive review of the literature on probiotics, growth performance, and gut health in poultry. The study design involves the administration of probiotics to a group of poultry and a control group without probiotics supplementation. Growth parameters such as body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and mortality rate are monitored throughout the study period. Additionally, gut health indicators including gut microbiota composition, intestinal morphology, and immune response are evaluated. The methodology chapter outlines the experimental design, probiotics administration protocol, sample collection procedures, and analytical methods employed in the study. Statistical analyses are conducted to assess the significance of differences observed between the probiotics-supplemented group and the control group. The results of the study reveal that probiotics supplementation significantly improves growth performance in poultry, as evidenced by increased body weight gain and improved feed conversion ratio. Furthermore, probiotics supplementation positively influences gut health by modulating the gut microbiota composition, enhancing intestinal morphology, and boosting immune response in poultry. The discussion chapter delves into the implications of the findings, highlighting the potential of probiotics as a sustainable alternative to antibiotics in promoting growth performance and gut health in poultry production. The study underscores the importance of further research to optimize probiotics supplementation strategies and elucidate the mechanisms underlying the observed effects on poultry. In conclusion, the research demonstrates the beneficial effects of probiotics supplementation on growth performance and gut health in poultry. The findings contribute to the growing body of knowledge on probiotics applications in poultry production and advocate for the adoption of probiotics as a viable strategy to enhance poultry performance and health while reducing reliance on antibiotics. Further research is warranted to explore the full potential of probiotics in poultry nutrition and health management.
