Potensi Suplementasi Nira Aren (Arenga pinnata Merr.)Terhadap Performa Ayam Broiler

Abstract

Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat efek penambahan nira aren yang disuplementasikan dalam air minum terhadap performa ayam broiler.Digunakan sebanyak 100 ekor DOC strainCP 707 yang dipelihara selama 32 hari. Rancangan yang digunakan merupakan rancangan acak lengkap dengan 5 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan (setiap ulangan terdiri dari 5 ekor ayam). Perlakuan suplementasi nira aren dalam air minum terdiri dari P1 (Ransum Basal + Air minum dengan suplementasi nira aren 0%), P2(Ransum Basal + Air minum dengan suplementasi nira aren 5%), P3 (Ransum Basal + Air minum dengan suplementasi nira aren 10%), P4 (Ransum Basal + Air minum dengan suplementasi nira aren 15%), P5 (Ransum Basal + Air minum dengan suplementasi nira aren 20%). Variabel yang diamati adalah performaayam (konsumsi pakan, pertambahan bobot badan, konversi ransum). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa suplementasi nira aren pada air minum berbeda nyata (P<0,05) meningkatkan bobot badan dan menurunkan konversi ransum. Kesimpulan penelitian ini bahwa suplementasi nira aren pada air minum dapat meningkatkan performa ayam broiler. Abstract The research aims was to know the effect supplementation of nira aren in driking water on performance broiler. A total of 100 DOC of CP strain were used, the observation was conducted for 32 day. Designs were a completely randomized design with five observation and four replications (5 birds each). The treatments consisted of P1(control diet), P2 (control diet + 5% supplementation of nira aren on driking water), P3 (control diet + 10% supplementation of nira aren on driking water), P4 (control diet + 15% supplementation of nira aren on driking water), P5 (control diet + 20% supplementation of nira aren on driking water). The variabel observation was performance (feed consumption, body weight, feed conversion ratio). The result showed that supplementation of nira aren on driking water produced significantly (P<0,05) increased body weight and decreased feed conversion ratio compared to those without nira aren supplementation. The concluded that supplementation of nira aren on drinking water increases performance of broiler.
