Pengaruh Imbangan Hijauan-Konsentrat dan Waktu Pemberian Ransum terhadap Produktivitas Kelinci Lokal Jantan
Abstract: This research was
conducted to study the effect of ration with certain ratio of
forage-concentrate and the time of feeding on productivity of male local
rabbits. Eighteen rabbits were used in Completely Randomized Block Design with
factorial pattern 3 x 2. The rabbits was devided in three groups based on its
body weight. Body weight of the first group, the second group, and the third
group respectively 1.085 -1.185 g, 1.200-1.365 g, and 1.380-1.530 g. There were
two factors in this design. The first factor were ration with certain ratio of
forage-concentrate (R). In that factor there was three treatmens, ration with
ratio of forage-concentrate 60%:40 as the first treatment (R1), 50% :50% as the
second treatment (R2), and 40%:60% as the third treatment (R3). The second
factor was the time of feeding (W). There were two treatments in this factor,
the time of feeding on day (at 06.00 am. up to 06.00 pm.) as the first
treatment (W1) and on night (at 06.00 pm. up to 06.00 am.) as the second treatment
(W2). The result indicated that there was no interaction (P>0.05) between
ration with certain ratio of forage-concentrate and the time of feeding on feed
consumption, average daily gain, and feed efficiency. The factor of ration with
certain ratio of forage-concentrate affected (P<0.05) feed consumption,
however didn’t affect (P>0.05) average daily gain and feed efficiency. Feed
consumption of the rabbits that got treatment ration with ratio of
forage-concentrate 40:60% (R3) was the lowest. The time of feeding didn’t
affect (P>0.05) feed consumption, average daily gain, and feed efficiency.
