PENGARUH PEMBERIAN ISOLAT BAKTERI SELULOLITIK RUMEN KERBAU MELALUI AIR MINUM SEBAGAI SUMBER PROBIOTIK TERHADAP KARKAS ITIK BALI UMUR 8 MINGGU
Abstrak: The use of probiotics
in the ration can increase the activity of enzymes and absorb of feed nutrient.
Probiotics is a feed additive that can be given in ration or drinking water in
the form of microorganisms that can live in the digestive tract, in symbiosis
with the existing micro-organisms, is particularly useful and able to promote
growth as well as the feed efficiency without undergoing the process of absorb.
Based on the above, this study aimed to determine the effect of buffalo rumen cellulolytic
bacteria in drinking water as a source of probiotics on the carcass weight of
the 8-week aged Bali ducks. This research was conducted at Dajan Peken Village
of Tabanan, Bali. The design used was completely randomized design (CRD) with
three treatments and six replications.The variables measured were the slaughter
weight, the carcass weight, the carcass percentage, consumption of rations and
drinking water consumption. The three treatments namely: drinking water without
cellulolytic bacteria as the control (A)
drinking water of 0.20% cellulolytic bacterial culture (B), and drinking
water of 0.40% cellulolytic bacterial culture (C). The results showed that the
administration of bacterial culture of cellulolytic of 0.20% and 0.40% through
drinking water significantly (P <0.05) could increase the slaughter weight,
the carcass weight, and the carcass percentage. Based on the research results,
it can be concluded that the administration of probiotic bacteria isolates of
cellulolytic buffalo rumen through drinking water at the level of 0.20% and
0.40% could increase the carcass of the 8 week aged Bali ducks.
