Preliminary investigation on the chemical Composition of local medicinal herbs (curcuma longa l., persicaria odorata l. And Eleutherine palmifolia l.) as potential layer Feed additives for the production of healthy Eggs

This study was carried out to determine the phytochemical and proximate compositions of the three selected local medicinal herbs: Curcuma longa L., Persicaria odorata L. and Eleutherine palmifolia L. as potential layer feed additive for the production of healthy eggs.
