The present research was conducted to evaluate the effect of incorporation of Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) root powder (SRP)in the diet on the performance and carcass yield of Japanese quail. 150-day old quail chicks were randomly allotted to 5 dietary treatment groups with 3 replicates of 10 birds for 7 wk. The SRP was ground and included at 0% (Ts0; Control), 1.0 (Ts1), 1.5 (Ts2), 2.0 (Ts3) and 2.5% (Ts4) levels in isocaloric and iso-nitrogenous quailchick’s diets to meet the nutrient requirements as per NRC (1994).There was a significant increase (P<0.05) in BWG, overall feed intake and improved (P<0.05) FCR with incorporation of SRP at 2.5% in the diet compared to the control group. There was a significant difference (P<0.05) in the carcass traits with respect to dressing wt, eviscerated wt, edible wt and giblet wt(i.e. liver, heart and gizzard). However, incorporation of SRP at 2.5% level had higher carcass yield (P<0.05) compared to the control group. Thus, it is concluded that SRP can be safely incorporated at 2.5% level in quail diets without any adverse effects.
