Pengaruh Lama Intensitas Cahaya dan Frekuensi Pemberian Pakan terhadap Performans Kelinci Lepas Sapih

Abstract

This research was conducted to determine the light intensity and frequency of feeding on the performance of weaning rabbits. This study used a factorial complete randomized design (CRD) with 2 factors (3x3), namely factor I with 3 treatments used, namely V0 (feeding was given 1 time), V1 (feeding was given 2 times) and V2 (feeding was given 3 time) with 3 replicates. For factor II with 3 treatments, namely L1 (12 hours of light duration), L2 (14 hours of light duration) and L3 (16 hours of light duration) with 3 replications. The parameters of this study were feed consumption, body weight gain and feed conversion. The results showed that the frequency of feeding had no significant effect on feed consumption, body weight gain and feed conversion. The length of light intensity given has a significant effect on body weight gain and has no significant effect on feed consumption and feed conversion. The best results were obtained in the V1L1 treatment with 2 times the frequency of feeding and 12 hours of light intensity.
