Increase in body weight and protein retention on meat chicken due to the addition of probiotics and digestive enzymes in fermented diet containing maggot flour and local materials

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the growth response of meat chickens due to the addition of probiotics and digestive enzymes in the fermented diet containing maggot flour and local materials. The research was carried out at Field Laboratory of Animal Science, University of Syiah Kuala-Banda Aceh, Indonesia for 66 days. A total of 100 meat chickens were designed using a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments, namely P0 = 100% fermented ration (control), P1 = 0.5% probiotic + 0% digestive enzymes + 100% fermented diet, P2 = 0% probiotic + 0.5% digestive enzymes + 100% fermented diet, P3 = 0.5% probiotic + 1% digestive enzymes + 100% fermented diet, P4 = 1% probiotic + 0.5% digestive enzymes + 100% fermented diet with 4 replications. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of variance) and significant difference of data was analyzed by Duncan’s multiple distance test. The results showed that the addition of probiotics and digestive enzymes with different levels of administration in the fermented diet had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the increase in final body weight and percentage of protein retention. The best results were obtained on chicken fed on fermented diet contained 0, 5% digestive enzymes by increasing on final body weight, protein retention, feed conversion and feed efficiency which were higher than fermented feed containing probiotics. In conclusion, it was well known that digestive enzyme effected synergistically on fermented diet in increasing protein retention resulted a higher final body weight of meat chicken.

Providing feed containing fermented fish waste and phytogenic feed additive on the performance of male quail

“…This shows that fermented fish waste and phytogenic feed additives are very efficiently used by quail. Feed1conversion is a benchmark for assessing how much feed is consumed to produce quail body weight [9]. The1smaller the ration conversion number indicates the1more efficient the livestock is in using the ration.…”

The use of fermented feed containing black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) and azolla sp on egg production and egg clutch in hybrid chickens

“…Chickens that are fed with commercial feed at 100% have the highest egg production value and are significantly different from chickens fed fermented feed 90% + black soldier fly 5% + azolla 5% (P1) and chickens fed fermented feed 85% + black soldier fly 5% + azolla 10% (P2), fermented feed 85% + black soldier fly 10% + azolla 5% (P3), fermented feed 80% + black soldier fly 10% + azolla 10% (P4). Feed provided with good quality and quantity will increase egg production and quality because it can meet the nutritional needs of chickens based on the rearing system and genetics [2].…”

“…The black soldier fly larvae contain IOP Publishing doi:10.1088/1755-1315/1297/1/012043 2 40-50% protein and 29-32% fat. [2]. Black soldier fly is a highly nutritious alternative to poultry feed, containing high levels of protein, amino acids, fatty acids, and minerals.…”

Pemberdayaan Kelompok Peternak Melalui Diversifikasi Limbah Pasar Ikan Sebagai Bahan Pakan Ayam Kalasan

“…Kualitas ransum yang diberikan akan memengaruhi pertumbuhan ternak. Nutrien yang terserap sempurna dalam tubuh akan meningkatkan konsumsi pakan sehingga pertumbuhan dan produksi akan semakin baik (Yaman, Nasution, & Daud, 2022). Bentuk limbah pasar ikan dan ransum komplit serta ayam kalasan hasil pengabdian ditampilkan pada Gambar 1.…”
