PROPORSI PEMBERIAN RANSUM YANG BERBEDA PADA PAGI, SIANG, DAN MALAM TERHADAP RESPON FISIOLOGIS DAN PRODUKSI SAPI PERANAKAN SIMENTAL
ABSTRACT: The objective of
this research is to know the influence of the proportion of the distribution of
feed in the morning, afternoon, and night toward physiological and production
response of Simental Cattle Grade. The parameters measured is respiration rate,
heart rate, body temperature, dry matter intake, average daily gain, and feed
convertion ratio. This research is implemented by using Randomized Block Design
(RBD) with three treatment and four group. Beef cattle used is bull of Simental
Cattle Grade with body weights 330—420 kg.
The treatment that used is proportion of the distribution of feed 33,3%
morning, 33,3% afternoon, 33,3% night (P1);
50% morning, 25% afternoon, 25% night (P2); and 25% morning, 25%
afternoon, 50% night (P3). The data from this research is tested by using
analyzed of variance and continued with Least Significance Difference
(LSD). The result of this research shows
that by the proportion of the distribution of feedin different in the morning,
afternoon, and night have positive influence (P<0,05) toward physiological
response on the respiration rate, and heart rate, but have not positive
influential (P>0,05) toward body temperature and response of production on
the dry matter intake, average daily gain, and feed conversion ratio. The
proportion of feed (P3) is the best treatment to the physiological response of
cattle and no treatment that gives the best production response.
