POTENSI CA, P, MG, DAN ZN PADA BERBAGAI BAGIAN TANAMAN KIAMBANG (SALVINIA MOLESTA) DI BENDUNGAN BATU TEGI KABUPATEN TANGGAMUS
ABSTRACT: The increase of
population in Indonesia has caused farmland increasingly narrow. In contrast,
the more limited availability of green feed and causing feed prices continue to
rise every year. Therefore, alternative
feed resources needed are cheap, readily available, abundant in nature and
highly nutritious. Expected to be
sufficient alternative feed feed shortages due to narrowing of agricultural
land and reduce production costs. This
study aims to determine the elemental content of Ca, P, Mg and Zn in plant
parts Kiambang (Salvinia molesta). This
research was conducted at the Batu Tegi Dam Tanggamus Lampung regency and
Animal Nutrition Laboratory Department of Dairy and Nutrition Faculty of Animal
Science, Bogor Agricultural University.
This research used Completely Randomized Design 5 treatments with 2
replications. Treatment consists of young leaves, old leaves, old roots, young
roots and whole plants Kiambang. The
data obtained in this study were analyzed on a variety of real level of 5% and
1% Test, BNT used as a means of comparison between treatments in the real level
of 5%. The results showed that. (1) Kiambang contain elements Ca, P and Zn in
the roots of the old site, while the largest element Mg on older leaves. (2) Kiambang (Salvinia molesta) has potential
as a source of essential minerals (Ca, Mg and Zn) for organic ruminants.
