The author described the researches and presented the results of the effect of Phellodendron amurense bark upon productivity and quality of meat of broiler chickens at the poultry farm "Nadezhdinskaya bird". The author described the effect of Phellodendron amurense bark which was used in experimental groups of broiler chickens. The influence of biologically active additives upon the main zootechnical indicators of broiler chickens and meat quality was studied. The results of the experiment show the positive impact of Phellodendron amurense bark upon the growth and development of broiler chickens. Feeding as a part of the diet of biologically active additives produced from Phellodendron amurense bark helps to improve the productive index and conversion of feed, increasing the profitability of the poultry production. The best results were obtained in the third experimental group of chickens, which received 1.5 g of the active additives of the Phellodendron amurense bark in replacement of the main di
