Uji Penerapan Wafer Suplemen Mengandung Prill Fat Terhadap Konsumsi Nutrien dan Kondisi Tubuh Sapi Perah Pada Peternakan Skala Kecil

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji pemberian wafer suplemen pakan mengandung prill fat pada konsumsi nutrien, pendugaaan bobot badan sapi perah, body condition score dan manure score. Penelitian ini menggunakan 20 ekor sapi perah laktasi dengan rataan bobot badan 433 ± 41,92 kg, periode laktasi 1-5, dan bulan laktasi 4-9 bulan. Rancangan percobaan terdiri dari 2 perlakuan dan 10 ulangan, yaitu P0 = ransum kontrol dan P1 = P0 + 400 gram wafer suplemen. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan uji T-student. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian wafer suplemen mengandung prill fat sebanyak 400 gram mampu meningkatkan body condition score. Konsumsi bahan kering (BK), protein kasar (PK), lemak kasar (LK), serat kasar (SK), bahan ekstrak tanpa nitrogen (BETN), total digistible nutrien (TDN) dan pendugaan bobot badan harian sapi perah tidak menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda nyata. Manure score sapi perah pada penelitian ini berada pada skor 2 dan masih dalam kondisi normal.

This study aimed to test the feeding of supplementary wafer containing prill fat on nutrient consumption, body weight estimation of dairy cows, body condition score and manure score. This study used 20 lactating dairy cows with an average body weight of 433 ± 41.92 kg, lactation period 1-5, and lactation month 4-9 months. The experimental design consisted of 2 treatments and 10 replicates, namely P0 = control ration and P1 = P0 + 400 grams of wafer supplement. The data obtained were analyzed using T-student test. The results showed that giving wafer supplements containing prill fat as much as 400 grams was able to improve body condition score. Consumption of dry matter, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, extract material without nitrogen, total digestible nutrients and daily body weight estimation of dairy cows did not show significantly different results. Manure score of dairy cows in this study was at score 2 and still in normal condition.
