The chapters cover a wide range of topics, including the latest research on novel plant extracts, essential oils and herbal formulations that are being integrated into aquaculture systems. The book also covers phytobiotics influence on fish digestive physiology and biochemistry, reproduction success and overall health management. It further highlights the potential of phytobiotics to reduce dependency on synthetic chemicals, thus mitigating negative ecological impacts like pollution and the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. This work offers an overview of the challenges, future prospects and sustainability of phytobiotic applications in aquaculture. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is a resource for researchers, entrepreneurs, planners and advisors who are dedicated to implementing sustainable and health-conscious alternatives in aquaculture. It is particularly relevant for those involved in disease management, growth promotion and overall aquatic animal health. By providing cutting-edge insights and practical guidance, this book equips readers with the knowledge needed to advance sustainable aquaculture practices and contribute to a more environmentally responsible industry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDr. Shivendra Kumar\u003c\/strong\u003e is a \u003cspan data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eFormer\u003c\/span\u003e Professor and Head at the Department of Aquaculture, College of Fisheries, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Bihar, India.
