Performa Kambing yang Diberi Kulit Buah Kakao Terfermentasi

Abstract

Utilization of cocoa pod husk (CPH) as feedstuff needs pretreatment to increase its nutrients availability. Bioconversion with Phanerochaete chrysosporium changes its structure by breaking down the linkage between lignin and structural carbohydrates. This experiment was aimed to evaluate the quality of fermented CPH biomass as feed for goats. The experimental treatments i.e.: A= 30% of fresh napier grass (RG) + 50% of dried RG + 20% of concentrate; B= 30% of fresh RG + 30% of dried RG + 40% of concentrate; C= 30% of fresh RG + 30% of CPH + 40% of concentrate; D= 30% of fresh RG + 30% of fermented CPH + 40% of concentrate and E= 30% of fresh RG + 50% of fermented CPH + 20% of concentrate. The treatments were allocated in a randomized block design with three replications. Feed intake, body weight gain and ration effi ciency were measured. The use of fermented CPH at the level of 30% had higher (P<0.05) feed intake (560.33 g day -1 ), body weight gain (101.79 g head -1 day -1 ), and feed conversion (5.50) compared to other treatments. In conclusion that the use of 30% fermented CPH in the ration showed the best body weight gain and feed effi ciency.

Performa Domba Yang Diberi Complete Feed Kulit Buah Kakao Terfermentasi

“…Apabila tingkat konsumsi BK pada ternak tinggi maka tingkat konsumsi BO tinggi pula, juga sebaliknya (Kamal, 1994). Konsumsi BO pada ransum complete feed lebih tinggi jika dibandingkan dengan konsumsi BO pada penelitian Suparjo et al (2011) Hartadi et al (2005) 6,99±1,50g/kg BB 0,75 seperti tersaji pada Tabel 3. Analisis statistik menunjukkan perbedaan yang nyata (P<0,05).…”

“…Nilai konsumsi protein absolut ransum F sebesar 88,73 g/ekor/hari pada penelitian ini melampaui hasil penelitian Suparjo et al (2011) pada ransum berbasis KBK difermentasi dengan bakteri Phytopthora palmivora sebesar 72 g/ekor/hari dengan PBBH sebesar 93,44 g/ekor/hari yang disebabkan karena bakteri Phytopthora palmivora tidak dapat merubah nilai PK KBK, akan tetapi konsumsi PK pada penelitian ini lebih rendah dari konsumsi protein penelitian Puastuti et al (2010) dengan KBK amoniasi suplementasi Zn organik sebesar 15,04 g/KgBH 0,75 . Perbedaan konsumsi PK tersebut disebabkan penggunaan bahan pakan dan kandungan PK pakan yang berbeda dengan penelitian.…”

“…Nilai konversi pakan yang diperoleh pada penelitian ini menyamai angka konversi pakan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Suparjo et al (2011) pada kambing yang diberi 50% KBK terfermentasi dalam 20% konsentrat dan 30% rumput gajah sebesar 6,77. Dari bobot badan dan konversi pakan yang dihasilkan, pemberian fermentasi KBK dan konsentrat dalam ransum complete feed sebagai pakan subtitusi/pengganti rumput raja dapat memenuhi kebutuhan hidup dan produksi domba.…”

Legume Wafer Supplementation to Increase the Performance of Post-Weaning Ettawa Grade Goats

“…Therefore, the dry matter intake in this research exceeds the needs for basic maintenance and hence allows growth. Previous studies showed varying dry matter intake, such as 434-560 g/head/d (Suparjo et al 2011) and 556-603 g/head/d (Lee et al, 2014). The variation was due to the difference of nutrient content in the ration, the physiological status, sex, and ingredients of the ration.…”

“…Legume wafer seemed to fulfill the deficiency of protein of the goats. Protein intake is closely related to body weight gain, as protein is utilized for basic maintenance, production, and reproduction (Suparjo et al, 2011).…”
