“…Therefore, it is necessary to develop suitable technologies to produce ruminant feed which is more durable, easier to handle, more convenient to distribute and are available in all seasons [2]. During the rainy season, forage is abundant, but during the dry season forage very little or none so that the local calves can decrease its productivity [3].…”

The aim of this research was to determine the nutrient content, digestibility on wafer of feed supplement and productivity of Bali calves. This research had two steps experimental, the first steps experiment to determine the nutrient content and digestibility on wafer of feed supplement. The composition wafer of feed supplement i.e. T1 = wafer containing lamtoro leaf, T2 = wafer containing lamtoro and papaya leaf, T3 = wafer containing moringa leaf, T4 = wafer containing gamal leaf, T5= wafer containing corn leaf and corn. Nutrient content and digestibility of T1 had highest compared among the others, i.e. crude protein (32.34%), ash (7.24%), crude fiber (16.85%), crude fat (4.52%), NFE (39.06 cal/g), digestibility of dry matter 82.87 %, digestibility of organic matter 81.78%, NH 3 9.33% and VFA 164.55%. The second steps of this research was the best result of the nutrient content and digestibility of wafer of feed supplements tested to bali calves. Level of wafer containing lamtoro leaf ,i.e R1 =0%, R2 =5%, R3 =10%, R4=15%. The result indicated that treatments had significant effect (P<0.05) on daily weight gain. It was concluded that bali calves were fed by wafer of feed supplement with level 10% had 69% higher than conventional.

“…Ukuran wafer bervariasi, ada yang mempunyai ukuran 37 x 24 cm atau 47 x 35 cm dan wafer ukuran jumbo berukuran 70 x 35 cm (Manley 2000). Adapun wafer yang dibuat oleh Retnani et al (2010a;2010b;2014a;2014b; dan 2016) mempunyai ukuran panjang dan lebar 5 x 5 cm dengan ketebalan yang bisa diatur sesuai yang diinginkan. Perbedaan antara bentuk fisik cube, blok, dan wafer pakan dapat dilihat di Gambar 1.…”

“…Peningkatan kadar air dapat menimbulkan ancaman terhadap kualitas pakan, karena merupakan kondisi ideal untuk pertumbuhan jamur dan perkembangan mikotoksin yang cepat. Rata-rata kadar air dari wafer berkisar antara 9 hingga 15% (Retnani et al 2010b;Retnani et al 2014a;Retnani et al 2014b;Barkah 2019). Selain itu, adanya proses pemadatan saat…”

Feed is one of the important factor that affect livestock productivity, so the availability of good quality feed is a requirement for livestock development in an area. In the tropical area, providing forage as a crucial feed for ruminants was hampered by fluctuating seasons. Likewise, the availability of agricultural waste as an alternative source of feed material experiences the same constraints, easily damaged, and bulky (voluminous). Therefore, feed processing technology is needed so that it is become durable, easily stored, and easily provided for livestock. One way to overcome this is to utilize technology for making wafers. Information regarding technology for making animal feed wafers in Indonesia is still limited. This paper reviews a number of studies that discuss the development of wafer processing technology, types of wafers, the main components of wafer compilers, wafer manufacturing processes, reactions that occur during wafer manufacturing, nutrient quality of various wafers, and the results of research on the use of wafers for feed livestock. Wafers are feeds that are processed using heat and pressure, so that a solid, compact, and high density product is formed. Feed wafer technology is a modification of cube and block feed. Wafers are divided into feed wafers, feed supplement wafers, and complete feed wafers. Feed wafers can be used instead of concentrates. Feed supplement wafers are high in energy and protein. Complete feed wafers contain energy, protein, fiber, and complete minerals that have been adapted to the daily nutritional needs of livestock. Feed wafer processing technology can be one of the strategies to provide feed with a constant composition of nutrients throughout the season and increase production and feed efficiency.

“…Development of cattle farms is not enough just to increase the population with the government's efforts to provide assistance cattle or business capital. The application of technology has to be initiated in order to obtain production efficiency and production cost efficiency (Retnani et al, 2014). One of the factors that affect the productivity of livestock is feed.…”

“…The wafer feed must contain energy; Mineral; Vitamin and protein that are needed by animal to increase productivity (Retnani et al, 2010). Wafer of feed supplement is made of fiber, especially, fresh green forage as a replacement for ruminants in order to utilize the fiber when the quality and quantity of forage decreased (Retnani et al, 2014). Composition of wafer feed supplement containing lamtoro leaf.…”

Sub-sector of livestock has an important role in the life and development of human resources in Indonesia. An important issue on agribusiness beef cattle is a continuous population decline every year. The application of technology has to be initiated in order to obtain production efficiency and production cost efficiency. One of the factors that affect the productivity of livestock is feed. The major constraints of ruminant feed are low quality of forage, the low level of palatability and digestibility. To solve this problem is making forage waste into wafer feed supplement. The aim of this experiment was to determine the nutrient content on wafer feed supplement and productivity of local calf that were given by wafer feed supplement. This research was conducted at Laboratory of Feed Industry, Bogor Agricultural University and the performance test at Karya Anugrah Rumpin Corporation on March-April 2016. To determine the nutrient content of wafer feed supplements used proximate analysis. The experiment of productivity used 12 heads of male local calves (Sumba Ongol calves) with average body weight around 136±22.46 kg with ages around 12-18 months. The experimental local calves were maintained individually. The experimental design used randomized block design with four treatments and three replications. The treatments were feeding patterns of wafer feed supplement i.e., T1 = 0% by feeding wafer supplement+concentrate+king grass, T2 = 10% by feeding wafer supplement+concentrate+king grass, T3 = King grass+10% by feeding wafer supplement+concentrate, T4 = Concentrate+king grass+10% by feeding wafer supplement. The parameters measured were productivity of local calves, i.e., daily weight gain, final body weight, consumption, dry matter and organic matter digestibility, blood cholestrol, blood glucose, blood protein. It was concluded that feeding pattern wafer feed supplement can increase consumption and not influence condition of local calves. It was concluded that daily weight gain by feeding wafer supplement feed 42-45% higer than conventional feed. High crude protein of wafer feed supplement is good supplement for ruminant in the tropic.
