Urtica Dioica, often known as stinging nettle, is a plant with pointed leaves and white yellowish

flowers and it is typically 2-4 meters tall.


Urtica dioica (stinging nettle) is a perennial plant in the Urticaceae family that belongs to
the genus Urtica. Although nettle's usage in folk veterinary medicine is extensively documented,
U.S. Today, dioica is an underappreciated and frequently overlooked plant, regarded by modern
agriculture as a weed to be eradicated. This brief overview focuses on recent research on the
administration of U. dioica, either alone or in combination with other herbs, has been shown to
boost growth and boost immune in farmed fish, making them more resistant to bacterial illnesses.
This new trait, together with the herb's cost-effectiveness, ample availability, and ease of
processing, could make nettle a great, low-cost, and extensively utilized dietary supplement on
intensive fish farms. (De Vico et. al, 2018).
