APLIKASI PREBIOTIK PADA PAKAN KOMERSIAL UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KINERJA PERTUMBUHAN IKAN NILA (Oreochromis niloticus)
ABSTRACT: This research aimed
to evaluate the effect of prebiotic to promote the growth of tilapia. Fish were
fed four times daily in ad satiation. The Feed used were commercial feed pellet
dry with 32% carbohydrates, 7% lipids and 30% proteins. The prebiotic used was
extracted from sweet potato varieties sukuh. The experiment were done with
three treatments and 3 replicates, namely control A (0% prebiotic), B (1%
prebiotic) and C (2% prebiotic). The results showed that application of
prebiotic in feed can promote better tilapia growth compared to control. The
treatment with the addition of 1% prebiotics showed the best result on
promoting tilapia growth, feed efficiency, bacteria population in
gastrointestinal tract, apparent digestibility and nutrition retention among other
treatments respectively.
