Pengaruh Penambahan Tepung Gaplek dan Isolat Bakteri Asam Laktat dari Cairan Rumen Sapi PO Terhadap Kualitas Silase Rumput Gajah (Pennisetum purpureum)
ABSTRACT: The objective of
this study was to evaluate the effect of cassava meal as carbohydrate source
and inoculums of lactic acid bacteria
incubated from PO cattle’s rumen liquid on the quality of Napier grass
(pennisetum purpureum) silages. The research was conducted at Ujung-ujung
village Pabelan District Semarang Regency. Feed analysis was carried out in of
Biochemical Nutrition, Animal Feed Science, Animal Science Faculty, Gadjah Mada
University. This study was assigned into Completely Randomized Design with 4
treatments and 3 replicated. The treatments were addition of cassava meal and
inoculums of lactic acid bacteria level into the Napier grass; 0, 1, 3 and 5%
(w/w) and incubated for 30 days. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance
(ANOVA) and the significant effect was tested by Duncans Multiple Range Test. The results showed that
the addition of 1 – 5% cassava meal significantly affected (P<0,05) lactic
acid content, pH, and NH3 concentration. Should be revised However, among the
treatment groups of 1, 3 and 5 % of cassava meal was not significantly (P<0,05) different on the lactic acid
content, pH and NH3 concentration.
