Abstract :
Considering the benefits of phytoadditives in livestock production, they are increasingly
being used, opening new favorable perspectives in efficiency of farm growth species. Given the
diversity and relatively safe effects of the impact (side effects) that it had phytoadditives on production
increase, improving products quality and increasing resistance to disease or to reduce losses, their
usage seems to be a growing and a suitable for several species, including those from aquaculture.
Given this situation, this paper presents the results obtained from research that focused on analyzing
the impact of two phytoadditives, Salt cedar (Tamarix ramosissima) and Dog rose (Rosa canina)
respectively, on growth performance and stock losses (mortality). Studies was conducted on a stock
consisting of 800 Brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) individuals, during six months (185 days).
