Pemanfaatan Tepung Daun Cabe-cabe (Lepidagathis javanica) dalam Ransum Terhadap Performan Ayam Broiler
ABSTRACT: This study was
conducted to determine the effect of using cabecabe leaf (Lepidagathis
javanica) into the ration on broiler performance. Design of this experiment was
assigned to Completely Randomized Design (CRD) in 4 treatments and 5
replications. Each replication contained 5 chickens. The treatments were R0 =
basal ration (as control), R1 = 97.5% of basal ration + 2.5% of cabe cabe leaf,
R2 = 95.0% of basal ration + 5.0% of cabe cabe leaf and R3 = 92.5% of basal
ration + 7.5% of cabe cabe leaf. Basal ration composed by corn, rice bran,
soybean meal, coconut meal, fish meal, coconut oil, mineral mix and premix.
Parameter measured was feed consumption, daily weight gain and feed conversion
ratio. To determine the effect of treatment on the parameter was analyzed by
analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the significant effect of treatment on the
parameter was analyzed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Result of this
study showed that using cabe cabe leaf into the ration significantly
(P<0.05) decreased feed consumption. Daily weight gain and feed conversion
ratio. Duncan’s Multiple Range Test showed that feed consumption and daily
weight gain were significant (P<0.05) different between control and all
level of cabe cabe leaf, however, feed conversion ratio was significant
(P<0.05) different only between control and 7.5% of cabe cabe leaf in the
ration. It is concluded that using 2.5% of cabe cabe leaf into the ration
reduced feed consumption and daily weight gain but not influenced feed
conversion ratio up to 5% of using cabe cabe leaf into the ration.
