Abstract

The present review evaluates the comparative efficacy of Moringa oleifera and Ocimum sanctum (Tulsi) leaf powder as natural growth promoters in Sonali layer chicks under Agro-climatic conditions similar to the Chitrakoot region. With increasing restrictions on antibiotic growth promoters, phytogenic feed additives have gained attention due to their safety and multifunctional benefits. Both moringa and Tulsi possess bioactive compounds that enhance growth performance, immunity, gut health, and feed efficiency. This review synthesizes findings from recent studies and discusses their applicability to Sonali poultry production systems. Evidence indicates that moringa improves nutrient utilization and immune response, while Tulsi enhances growth rate and stress resistance. Comparative analysis suggests that while both herbs are effective, moringa shows superior performance in nutrient enrichment, whereas Tulsi excels in antioxidative and immunomodulatory effects.
