Abstract

A study conducted at Zagazig University evaluated the use of Moringa leaves meal (MLM) as a growth promoter and immune stimulant for Nile Tilapia fish. The study found that including MLM in the fish diet at levels of 3.0% or 4.4% significantly enhanced growth performance, including body weight gain and feed conversion ratio. However, fish fed a diet with 7.4% MLM had lower growth performance. The study also observed improvements in immunity and antioxidant capacity with MLM inclusion in the diet. Overall, the research suggests that MLM has high nutritive value and can benefit Nile Tilapia fish. [Extracted from the article]
