Abstract:
There has been success with the use of plant ingredients in aquaculture as they are cheaper, biodegradable, biocompatible and growth promoters. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of adding Carica papaya leaf to the diet of Labeo rohita on growth and feeding parameters. Feeding the fishes with different concentrations of C. papaya leaf diet had an impact on the growth rate of the fish. Incorporation of 10% of papaya leaf in the feed enhances the assimilation and conversion efficiency of Labeo rohita. This finding confirmed C. papaya leaf as a growth promoter.
