Introduction. The development of poultry production is associated with high productivity and growth rate of broilers, as well as their excellent digestibility of feed at low production costs. In addition, poultry meat is the most affordable and recommended by nutritionists in all countries. Russia has been self-sufficient in poultry meat for more than two years, exceeding 100 % of the demand for this product. Materials and methods. The study of the effect of the immunostimulating feed additive “Butofan” on the body of birds was carried out on the basis of the farm of Alimchuyeva Z. Sh. of Medvedevsky district of the Republic of Mari El. For this purpose, three analogue groups of broiler chickens of the Ross 308 cross were formed. To determine the most effective dose of the substance, the first experimental group received 200 g/t of water, the second group ‒ 300 g/t of water, and the third group served as a control. Results and discussion. In the first week, there was an excess of the average daily gain of the 1st experimental group over the control group by 25.13 %. Then, by the 25th day, a positive growth of 26.40 % was recorded in the same group. By the end of the seventh week, that is, by the 35th day, both experimental groups significantly exceeded the control in terms of average daily growth. The safety of poultry population over the entire growing period in the 1st and 2nd experimental groups was 100 % and 95 %, respectively, while in the control group the safety was 92 %. Conclusion. Based on comprehensive studies, it can be concluded that the meat of broiler chickens grown using the “Butofan” feed additive in a dose of up to 300 g/t of water is of high quality and safe. Therefore, this additive can be used without restrictions.
