Abstract. In the conditions of an intensively developing livestock and poultry industry, the search for new sources of not only nutrients, but also compounds with pronounced inhibitory characteristics against pathogenic and opportunistic strains of microorganisms and viruses is the key criterion. The main direction in this area of scientific research in recent decades has been the alternative use of phytobiotic preparations that have a pronounced effect on antioxidant and immunological activity, which in turn has a positive effect on the dynamic characteristics of growth. Numerous studies indicate that the use of herbal ingredients, such as plant extracts or their powder forms, provides higher rates of feed intake. Along with this, many of them have a positive effect on the digestive system, stimulating the intensification of the growth of villi, which in turn ensures the maintenance of resident microflora and higher characteristics of parietal digestion with indirect positive growth dynamics. It should be noted that numerous studies provide data on a significant decrease in the feed conversion rate against the background of the use of preparations based on plant materials in the diet structure. The material presented in this literature review indicates a high dose-dependent level of biological action of various phytobiotics on the body of broiler chickens. The positive degree of influence, according to many authors, is due to the complex action of phytochemicals on organs and systems that provide metabolic processes and resistance to various stress factors.

Keywords: broiler chickens, feeding, phytobiotic preparations, feed conversion rate
