Palatability Level of Dried Rice as an Alternative Feed Ingredient to Subtitute Corn and Rice Bran

Abstract

| Indonesia is among the highest organic waste-generating countries, with an average of 12 × 106 t yr–1. After being processed, organic waste is highly potential to contribute to animal farming, and “aking rice” is one such product. After cleaning and rinsing, rice remains are sundried to reach a water content of < 14 %. However, no literature or findings are yet to discover whether “aking rice” is palatable for poultry. Therefore, this study is focused on determining “aking rice” palatability to see its chance to substitute corn and rice bran with an experimental design of three replications employing three treatments of corn (T1), “aking rice” (T2), and rice bran (T3). Broiler chickens aged 35 d with an average body weight of 1 870 g were involved – each treatment unit was of three, making a total of 27 chickens. Data gained from the experiment were run through one-way ANOVA, followed by an LSD test should any differences in the treatments occur. The result showed that consumption on T2 (59.89 g) was higher than on T1 (42.19 g) and T3 (9.22 g). As of feeding duration, T2 (680 s) was also higher than T1 (610 s) and T3 (140 s). Conclusively, “aking rice” has a better palatability rate than corn and rice bran, making it feasible for recommendation as a substitute for the other two base feed materials.

Dried Rice for Alternative Feed as a Waste Management Product for Sustainable Bioeconomy in Rice-Producing Countries

“…The ash content in dried rice ranges from 0.3% to 3%. These results are strengthened by the findings of previous studies [21,30,36,50]. Since the crude protein contents in the samples were detected alike-10.64%, 10.30%, and 10.64% in T1, T2, and T3, respectively-the difference can be assessed as insignificant.…”

Stability of the Broiler Antibody Under Heat Stress Using Dry Rice

“…The application of dry rice under heat stress by sowing method at 10 a.m will suppress the stress level in chicken as shown by the immune level which is not decreased. The same statement conveyed by Tonda et al [24,25] that dry rice is good for broilers. Low calories in dry rice caused the body's calory production would not be excessive, thereby it would reduce the stress level in broiler, reduce painting, and avoid the wet dropping.…”

“…Dry rice has some advantages because it has low calories and contains high resistant starch [21]. The previous research as reported by Tonda et al [24] showed that dry rice has advantages such as high palatability. Dry rice not only has high palatability, but it can also be used as a substitute for corn and rice bran [25].…”
