Abstract
Stocking broilers at a high density has been a strategy to optimize the area of the cage and hence increase the efficiency of broiler production. If the environmental (microclimate) conditions and rearing management are not properly managed, stocking broilers at a high density may, however, result in stressful conditions that are harmful for the production, health and welfare of broilers. To ameliorate these unfavorable effects of overcrowding stress, dietary interventions have been conducted. Probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, plant-derived products, vitamins, propolis, amino acids, fatty acids, etc. have been supplemented in diets to deal with the harmful impact of stress induced by a high stocking density of broilers. This review covers the detrimental effects of overcrowding-induced stress on broiler development and attempts to ameliorate those negative effects by dietary interventions.
期刊介绍：
Archives Animal Breeding is an open-access journal publishing original research papers, short communications, brief reports, and reviews by international researchers on scientific progress in farm-animal biology. The journal includes publications in quantitative and molecular genetics, genetic diversity, animal husbandry and welfare, physiology, and reproduction of livestock. It addresses researchers, teachers, stakeholders of academic and educational institutions, as well as industrial and governmental organizations in the field of animal production.
