Kajian Level Kadar Air dan Ukuran Partikel Bahan Pakan Terhadap Penampilan Fisik Wafer
ABSTRACT: This study attempted
wafer manufacturing technology development of conventional feed ingredients.
The benefit of wafer increase feed consumption and feed efficiency, increase
the metabolizable energy content of the feed, kill pathogenic bacteria, reduce
the amount of feed scattered, extending the storage time, ensure the balance of
feed nutrients and vitamins to prevent oxidation. Research was continuing
several research activities on wafer manufacturing technology that has been
done and continues to be developed by the researchers. The long term goal of a
series of research is to obtain basic information to the wafer manufacturing
optimum quality and measurable. Specific target is to obtain basic information
about the quality of the wafer on the level of water content and the use of a
certain particle size. The research method used was experimental and analytical
methods in the laboratory. The results showed that based on the test of
physical qualities (moisture content, density, water absorption) showed that
the use of the level of moisture content up to 8% with a particle size of 10-20
mm feed material provides the best physical appearance of wafer.
Keywords: wafer’s water
content; wafer; physical appearance of wafer
