Pengaruh Formulasi Pakan Hijauan (Kaliandra, Gamal dan Rumput Gajah) Terhadap Distribusi Protein dalam Saluran Pencernaan Domba
ABSTRACT: It was assumed that
feed formulation given to animals has an effect on digested nutrient of the
animals. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate nutrient contribution
mainly protein in digestive tracts of sheep by forage formulation treatment
(Caliandra calothyrsus, Gliricidia sepium and Penisetum sp.). Thirty (30) sheep
tails with the average body weight 15,42 kg (SD 2,68) were fed forage with the
following formulation: A. Fresh Penisetum sp. (FP) and fresh Caliandra
calothyrsus (FC) (7 : 3 or 70 % + 30 %), B. Fresh Penisetum sp. (FP) and fresh
Gliricidia sepium (FG) (7 : 3 or 70 % + 30 %), C. Fresh Penisetum sp. (FP),
fresh Caliandra calothyrsus (FC) and fresh Gliricidia sepium (FG). The
experiment was conducted for 90 days and water was provided ad libitum.
Parameter recorded in this experiment were distribution of protein in sheep digestive
tract, covers by protein rate in rumen, omasum, abomasum, small intestine,
caecum, large intestine and rectal. Data recorded were processed by covariant
analysis with body weight of sheep at the early experiment treatment as a
covariant. Continuation test with Tukey test. The results of this research
indicated that treatment had no significant effect on protein distribution of
digestive tract. It was shown by protein content in digestive tract had no
significantly difference among treatments ( P < 0,05), except for rectum
part.
