Broilers are getting treatments P1 (1,64 kg) a higher ration consumption when compared with the treatment of Po (1,61 kg). Body weight gain in the Po treatment (1.26 kg) was lower when compared with P1 treatment (1.34 kg). Conversion ration in the treatment of Po (1.28) higher when compared with P1 (1.23).

Based on the results of the research has been done can be concluded: Gedi leaves extract can be used as additives in broiler chickens; Gedi leaf extract in drinking water can increase the ration consumption, body weight gain and ration efficiency and reduce the conversion ration andmortality.Key words : Extract Abelmoschus manihot, antioxidant, performance broiler
