Abstract :

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of parsley (Petroselinum sativum)on growth factors of Rainbow trout. Therefore, from August to October 2014  6,000 Rainbow trout fish of 100 grams of weight in 3 treatments and 1 control group with 3 replications were fed.  Diets consisted of 3 levels of parsley powder at 1%, 3% and 5%, respectively. In general, the highest weight was found  in the last day of  treatment number 3 samples with an average weight of 269 ±  24 g  and the lowest on the first day of the control samples with an average weight of 146 ± 29 g  The greatest increase in length was noticed in the treatment  number 3 samples with an average length of 24/95 ± 2/12 cm  and the least growth in length was observed in the samples from  treatment number 1 with an average length of 23/4 ± 1/941 cm. One-way ANOVA test with Tukey HSD test showed strong significant difference among different treatments for weight gain and growth in length (P <0/05). Pearson correlation test showed a strong linear relationship between the increase in weight and length with the increase in the concentration of the parsley powder the whole period (P <0/05). Dried parsley (Petroselinum sativum) used in the study, showed significantly strong ability to influence growth performance and be used as feed for Rainbow trout. Therefore, we can probably say that dried parsley can be a good supplement to fish diet. Finally, it was diagnosed that parsley powder at 5.0 percent in the diet, is the optimum dosage for use in feed for trout in the long term.
