Uji Sifat Fisik Ransum Ayam Broiler Bentuk Pellet yang Ditambahkan Perekat Onggok Melalui Proses Penyemprotan Air
ABSTRACT: Pellet is a kind of
solidified and mechanically compressed feed. Problem frequently rise is that
pellet shape is easily damaged, brittle, and broken during production,
transportation and storage processing. The purpose this study was to know the
influence of onggok addition as binding agent with 5% water spraying on the
physical characteristic of pellet form ration.
The data were analyzed by analyzed of variance and the significant
experiment results would be examined by orthogonal contrast test. The
treatments consist from the first experiment were: A1 = basal ration + 0%
spraying water, A2 = basal ration + 5% spraying water, A3 = basal ration + 10%
spraying water and A4 = basal ration + 15% spraying water. The best result from
the first experiment would be used for the second experiment, the treatments
second experiment were: R1 = basal ration + 5% spraying water + 0% onggok, R2 =
basal ration + 5% spraying water + 2% onggok, R3 = basal ration + 5% spraying
water + 4% onggok and R4 = basal ration + 5% spraying water + 6% onggok.
The parameters were water content, water activity, specific gravity,
loose bulk density, compressed bulk density, angle of repose, modulus of
fineness, average particle sizes and the durability of pellet form. The
conclusion of the experiment that added of onggok as binder significant
influenced of the characteristic physical pellet, i.e.: increased loose bulk
density, compressed bulk density, modulus of fineness, average particle sizes,
and durability of pellet, but decreased specific gravity, water content, angle
of repose and water activity.
