Amelioration of Reproductive and Productive Performance in Animal and Poultry by Moringa Oleifera Free or Nano-Encapsulated

Abstract

Improvement of reproductive performance is an honorable goal and is closely associated with increasing productivity. Therefore, as the reproductive efficiency improves, the herd net return and national income increase. The high cost of animal forage especially in dry or semi-arid countries, is a main limitation to animal production which is raised under extensive systems. Hence, utilization of alternative feed resources may be a reasonable and appropriate approach in low-input systems. Moringa Oleifera is a natural plant referred to as a nutrient, which contains substances that might have a favorable influence on animal reproduction and production. Leafy Moringa is considered a virtuous origin of proteins that are very consumable. Moreover, they are rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin A, iron, and Calcium which are necessary for the growth of livestock animals. Moreover, they include the percentage of fatty acid which is greater as compared to any woody plant fodder. Principally, almost all of the fatty acids present in Moringa are unsaturated fatty acids which are highly susceptible. Nowadays, nano-encapsulation technology is considered a promising strategy for drug delivery and is efficient in preserving bioactive components in products rich in nutrients. So that this review affords a collection of significant data and enlightens the information on the development of Moringa Oleifera Free or its nano-encapsulated form in amelioration of animal and poultry reproduction and production performance.

Germinated Wheat as a Potential Natural Source of Antioxidants to Improve Sperm Quality: A Canary Trial

“…Wheat sprout extract is also known to be rich in zinc [ 28 ]. It was emphasized that selenium and zinc addition increased sperm motility and concentration in farm animals and poultry [ 78 ]. It was stated in a previous study that the addition of 60 mg/kg Zn-Met in diet positively affected sperm quality in roosters [ 79 ].…”
