This study aimed to examine the effect of lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) and cardamon (Amomum compactum) essential oils under nanoemulsion on duodenum morphology in broiler chickens. Lemon grass and cardamon essential oils contain phytochemical compounds that can inhibit the growth and development of harmful microbes in the gastrointestinal tract to maintain intestinal tract health, improve intestinal morphology, increase the efficiency of nutrients, and increase the productivity of broiler chickens. This study used two hundred eighty-eight broiler chickens (eight treatments and four replications). The treatments/formula consisted of F1=negative control, F2=25 mg/l antibiotics in drinking water (positive control), F3=25 µl/l lemon grass essential oil (LEO) in drinking water, F4=50 µl /l lemon grass essential oil (LEO) in drinking water, F5=100 µl/l lemon grass essential oil (LEO) in drinking water, F6=25 µl/l cardamon essential oil (CEO) in drinking water, F7=50 µl/l cardamon essential oil (CEO) in drinking water, and F8=100 µl/l cardamon essential oil (CEO) in drinking water. A completely randomized design with a unidirectional pattern was used in this design, and the data from statistical analysis that differed between treatments was continued with the new Duncan’s new Multiple Range Test. The results showed that adding nanoemulsion of lemon grass and cardamon essential oil increased the ratio of duodenal villi height to crypt depth (p<0.05) in 35-day-old broiler chickens.
