Pengaruh Penggunaan Fermentasi Dan Amoniasi Kulit Singkong Dalam Ransum Terhadap Pertambahan Bobot Tubuh Dan Konversi Pakan Pada Ternak Domba Jantan

Abstract

This research intended to determine the effect of using fermented and ammoniated of cassava peel on body weight gain and feed convertion in male sheep. This research was conducted in June until August 2019 in a cage unit located in the Animal Husbandry Department, Agriculture Faculty, Lampung University. The research used Completely Randomized Design with 3 treatments and 3 replications. Experimental unit of this experiment were nine sheeps. The treatment used were P0 (Ration + 15% cassava peel without processing), P1 (Ration + fermented cassava peel), and P2 (Ration + ammoniated cassava peel). Variable in this study were feed intake, body weight gain, and feed conversion. The data obtained were analyzed for variance with significance level 5%. The results showed that the use of fermented and amoniated of cassava peel was not significant (P>0,05) on feed intake, body weight gain, and feed conversion. Conclusion of this research is that fermented and ammoniated of cassava peel use in ration did not significantly increase body weight of sheep.

Palatability Test of Urea Molasses Multinutrient Block (UMMB) Based on Cocoa Pods Fermented with LMO (Local Microorganisms) in Sheep

“…In the study, it was observed that the feed consumption of sheep subjected to fermentation and ammoniation of cassava peel exhibited greater results compared to the feed consumption of sheep without these treatments. The feed consumption value recorded for sheep subjected to fermentation and ammoniation of cassava peel was 666.52 grams per head per day, as reported in reference [13].…”

“…Hence, the quantity of easily metabolizable protein ingested by ruminant animals plays a crucial role in their overall development and growth. According to the findings presented in reference [13], the body weight of sheep is affected by their beginning body weight when entering a treatment. In cases where the sheep have a low body weight, their level of feed consumption is equally low, resulting in a limited growth in body weight.…”

Studi performa Domba Sapudi pada berbagai umur di UPT Pembibitan Ternak dan Hijauan Makanan TernakJember - Jawa Timur

“…Ekor besar domba Sapudi betina biasanya akan menutupi vulva dan menyulitkan bagi domba Sapudi jantan untuk melakukan perkawinan. Dibalik potensinya sebagai penyumbang suplai daging nasional, domba lokal mempunyai kelemahan yang kurang diminati peternak, yakni rendahnya performa pertumbuhan khususnya pada pertambahan bobot badannya yang menurut Jaya, et al, (2020) rerata pertambahan bobot badan domba lokal yang dipelihara di peternakan rakyat hanya berkisar 30 g/hari. Beragamnya informasi performa domba lokal yang belum tentu tepat menunjukan performa domba Sapudi, menjadikan hal ini sangat penting untuk diketahui mengenai performa domba sapudi berbagai fase umur dalam rangka program pemeliharaan dan atau pembibitan yang akan dijalankan.…”
