PENGARUH SUBSTITUSI RUMPUT GAJAH (PENNISETUM PURPUREUM) DENGAN PELEPAH DAUN SAWIT TERHADAP KECERNAAN PROTEIN KASAR DAN KECERNAAN SERAT KASAR PADA KAMBING
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this
research was to determine effect substitution of elephant grass with palm leave
sheat fermented and unfermented feed on the digestibility of crude protein and
crude fiber in goats. The research lasted
from October to November 2015 in Animal Husbandry Departments, Faculty of
Agriculture, University of Lampung. The
research used a Randomize Complete Block Design. The group based on the body weight of goats. The group amount in 3 and each group
contained 3 goats, an average body weight 9--21 kg/head. Treatments : R1 (80% concentrate + 20%
elephant grass); R2 (80% concentrate + 20% unfermented palm leave sheat); and
R3 (80% concentrate + 20% fermented palm leave sheat). The data obtained were analyzed using
ANOVA. This was followed by Duncan
Test. The results showed that the
substitution of elephant grass with palm leave sheat not significant (P>
0.05) on the digestibility of crude protein, but it was highly significant (P
<0.01) the digestibility of crude fiber.
