Analisis Finansial Pemberian Fitobiotik Kunyit (Curcuma longa) dan Daun Salam (Syzygium polyanthum) dalam Air Minum Ayam Broiler

Abstract

Phytobiotics are all types of plants that contain bioactive compounds that are useful for living things. Phytobiotics made from turmeric and bay leaves can be used as feed additives in broiler chicken drinking water. This study aims to determine the effect of turmeric and bay leaf phytobiotics on Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC), as well as to provide an overview in the form of projections related to the Break Even Point (BEP), Revenue per Cost (R/C) ratio, and Benefit per Cost (B/C) ratio in the maintenance of 5,000 broiler chickens. This study was conducted at the Rio farm on Jl. Gugur Rimbun-Diski, Telaga Sari, Deli Serdang for 3 months. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replicates. The treatments used in this study consisted of P0 = control; P1 = 5% (turmeric + bay leaves); P2 = 10% (turmeric + bay leaves); P3 = 15% (turmeric + bay leaves). This study also used a socio-economic approach with a quantitative descriptive method to project the business. The results showed that the administration of turmeric and bay leaf phytobiotics had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the IOFC value. The administration of turmeric and bay leaf phytobiotics was also able to provide better IOFC, production BEP, price BEP, R/C, and B/C values when projected. The treatment with the best numerical trend in this study was P3 with a treatment level of 15% (turmeric + bay leaf).
