Abstract

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects supplementation of urea-molasse multinutrient block (UMMB) on the weight gain of heifers peranakan ongole beef cattle based diets with rice straw. Urea molasse multinutrient block were made with different formulations (A and B). A total of 15 heifers Peranakan Ongole beef cattle were divided into 3 groups. Control group animals were daily fed rice straw as a basal diet without UMMB, group A were daily fed rice straw as a basal diet with UMMB (A), group B were daily fed rice straw as a basal diet with UMMB (B) respectively. Weight gain were measured with Lambourne method weekly. Data on the feeding trial were collected during 4 wk, and were subjected to the Paired T-test analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results of this experiment showed that the UMMB supplementation had no significantly influenced of weight gain average (P > 0.05). With regard to the weight gain average of heifers, the group A showed a highest (9.52 kg), group B (9.38 kg) and control group (6.98 kg), respectively. Based on statistical analyses, it can be concluded that supplementation of UMMB had no effects on average weight gain in this study.
