Abstract :

[en] Aquaculture is a crucial food manufacturing sector in the world and it is also of economic importance in many countries. Disease outbreaks reduce aquatic production, prior chemotherapeutics and antibiotics treatments are supportive to manage the infections. In this method, residues cause side effects on humans and aquatic animals. Researchers find out pro- and pre-synbiotics methods used to enhance the feed quality and aquatic production. Herbal dietary feed supplementation development is eco-friendly, non-toxic, cost-effective, and easily handled for the preparation of feeds for aquatic animals in aquaculture. This review provides some information regarding herbal dietary feed supplements that help to improve aquatic animals’ health and also the quality of aquatic feed in the aquatic sector. This review reports on the upcoming investigations and progress of novel applications in aquaculture.
