Pengaruh Berbagai Bahan Litter Terhadap Konsentrasi Ammonia Udara Ambient kandang dan Performan Ayam Broiler
ABSTRACT: The study was
conducted to observe the effect of ammonia concentration of broiler chicken
coop air to the treatment various types of litter. High ammonia concentrations
would interfere with performance of broiler chickens and become a problem for
the environment. A good litter quality is expected to address the problem of
ammonia that occur in the broiler chicken coop. This study uses a completely
randomized, with 5 litter treatments. T0 without treatment repose only black
plastic as litter, litter composition T1 100% bran, 50% T2 litter composition
husks and Charcoal Shell 50%, T3 50% 50% husk litter composition and zeolite
50%, T4 25% husks litter composition, 25% charcoal, 25% zeolite and 25% of the
land. Each treatment was repeated 3 times, each test consisted of eight
chickens. Parameters observed in the form of ammonia concentration of air cages
at week four, weekly feed intake, weight gain per week, the final weight, feed
conversion, and mortality. The results indicate different types of litter
treatment was very real influence of ammonia concentration of air enclosure. T4
treatment with a 1:1 blend of each component of the litter that is used
successfully absorb such a large aerial ammonia, which indicates the ammonia
content of the air is the smallest compared with other treatment 4. While the
treatment without litter showed a very large aerial ammonia compared with the
treatment. Feed consumption results also showed that the treatment that
produces a small value causes ammonia to be markedly higher consumption. Values
for weight gain, final weight, feed conversion, and mortality are not
significantly affected by various types of litter treatment.
