Kecernaan Bahan Kering dan Bahan Organik Pakan Berbasis Limbah Batang Pisang Kepok Fermentasi dengan Eko-Enzim pada Ternak Domba Lokal Jantan

Abstract

Banana stems have good potential as a feed ingredient as an energy source in ruminant livestock ration supply systems. This study aims to determine the digestibility value of dry matter and organic matter based on kepok banana stem waste fermented with ecoenzymes in male local sheep. This research was conducted at Alvino Farm for 12 weeks, using 20 male local sheep aged 10 months. The design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications. The treatment consisted of P0 = 80% field grass + 20% concentrate; P1 = 70% field grass + 10% fermented banana stems + 20% concentrate; P2 = 60% field grass + 20% fermented banana stems + 20% concentrate; P3 = 50% field grass + 30% fermented banana stems + 20% concentrate. Parameters observed were dry matter consumption, organic matter consumption, dry matter digestibility, and organic matter digestibility. The results showed that the use of fermented kepok banana stems with ecoenzymes had a significant (P<0.05) effect on dry matter consumption with an average of 269,63-368,45 g/head/day, organic matter consumption with an average of 226.79-306.18 g/head/day, dry matter digestibility with an average of 36,13-50,45% and organic matter digestibility of local male sheep with an average of 39,90-54,74%. The conclusion of this research is the utilization of fermented kapok banana stems with ecoenzymes can increase the consumption and digestibility of dry matter and organic matter for local male sheep with the best level being 50% field grass + 30% fermented banana stems + 20% concentrate
