| Abstract | ||
| This study was conducted to determine the effect of using an aqueous extract of local fenugreek seeds and olive leaves on some of the productive performance of Iraqi Awassi sheep. Twenty Awassi sheep aged 11-12 months with an average weight of 48.50 kg were used in this study. The ewes of the experiment were divided into five transactions. The duration of the study (70 days). The animals were randomly distributed into five equal groups with four repetitions in each group as follows: the first control treatment dosed the ewes with distilled water only, T2 the second treatment was dosed with fenugreek seed aqueous extract at a concentration of (25 mg/ ml/ kg), T3 the third treatment was dosed with fenugreek seed aqueous extract at a concentration of (50 mg/ ml/ kg), T4 the fourth treatment was dosed with olive leaf aqueous extract at a concentration of 25 mg/ ml/kg. T5, the fifth treatment, was dosed with an aqueous extract of olive leaves at a concentration of (50 mg/ml /kg). The statistical analysis showed that the results of productive qualities showed a significant improvement (P≤0.05) in the treatment of fenugreek 50 mg/ mL/ kg compared to the control group throughout the experiment. As for the treatment of aqueous extract of olive leaves (50 mg/ml /kg), represented by group T5, a significant decrease in their rates was recorded in the fourth week and the total period of the experiment. As for the the T2 and T3 coefficients recorded a significant decrease (p≤0.05) ،food conversion coefficient in the third and fourth weeks compared to the control group. , transaction T3 recorded a significant increase (P≤0.05) ، As for the average significant increase , and a significant decrease was observed for olive ،in the second week and the total period transactions T4 and T5 for the same period mentioned above. Also, all the coefficients of the experiment recorded a significant decrease (P≤0.05) combined, and for the experiment, a significant decrease is observed for the olive coefficients T5 compared to the coefficients T2, T3 and T4 | ||
