THE EFFECT OF YEAST (SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISAE), GARLIC (ALLIUM SATIVUM) AND THEIR COMBINATION AS FEED ADDITIVES IN FINISHING DIETS ON THE PERFORMANCE, RUMINAL FERMENTATION, AND IMMUNE STATUS OF LAMBS

Four groups of male lambs (seven animals/ group) were used to study the effect of natural (garlic powder; Allium sativum) and biological (dry yeast; Saccharomyces cerevisiae) additives and their combination in finishing diets as compared to control diet on feed utilization and animal performance. Animals were 8 months of age and 35.8kg ± 0. 41 as average body weight.
