Title: Effect of organic acids and essential oils on growth performance of commercial broiler in Bangladesh
​Abstract: A total of 990 Cobb 500 straight run day old chicks were housed on March 18, 2016 and reared up to April 1, 2016 to examine the effect of organic acids and essential oils on growth performances and health status at a village farm in Companigonj upazila under the district of Noakhali in Bangladesh. Body weight at 7 days of  age and at 14 days of age were significantly higher for feed type two (159.99±0.16 g and 442.22±0.38 g, respectively). Average daily body weight gain at 8 to 14 days of age in feed type one was higher (41.09±0.03 g/d/b) than feed type two but higher feed conversion was recorded with feed type two (1.141) for the broiler birds of 14 days old. This study demonstrated that organic acids and essential oils supplementation in the broiler ration (feed type two) might help to increase the body weight and decrease mortality rate up to age of 14 days. It also revealed that feed to meat conversion might be increased through organic acids and essential oils supplementation. But to learn about the individual effect of organic acids preparation or essential oils preparations further study designing two feed types with similar nutrition in which one will be supplemented with organic acids  and the other one with essential oils supplementation would be worthwhile.
