PEMBERIAN SUPLEMENTASI PROBIOTIK DAN JUS NANAS TERFERMENTASI DALAM AIR MINUM TERHADAP PERFORMA AYAM BROILER

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pemberian suplementasi probiotik dan jus nanas terfermentasi pada ayam pedaging dan pengaruhnya terhadap performa ayam, seperti konsumsi pakan, pertambahan berat badan, rasio konversi pakan, mortalitas dan income over feed and chick cost (IOFCC). Ayam pedaging yang digunakan berumur 4 hingga 28 hari. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif dengan tiga perlakuan yaitu P0 (air minum 2 L tanpa suplementasi (kontrol), P1 (air minum 2 L + 10 mL suplementasi probiotik dan jus nanas fermentasi), dan P2 (air minum 2 L + 20 mL suplementasi probiotik dan jus nanas fermentasi). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa antara perlakuan kontrol dan penambahan probiotik jus nanas fermentasi cenderung serupa terhadap konsumsi pakan, bobot badan, pertambahan bobot badan konversi pakan dan rasio mortalitas. Nilai IOFCC tertinggi pada perlakuan P0 (Rp 2.188/ekor), P1 (Rp 2.050/ekor) dan P2 (Rp 1.997/ekor). Biaya suplementasi tidak diimbangi dengan peningkatan performa ayam yang dapat meningkatkan pendapatan

This study aims to evaluate the provision of supplementation fermented pineapple juice and probiotic in broilers and its effects on chicken performance, such as feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, mortality and income over feed and chick cost (IOFCC). Broiler used were aged 4 to 28 days. This study used a quantitative descriptive method with three treatments, namely P0 (2 L drinking water without supplementation (control), P1 (2 L drinking water + 10 mL probiotic supplementation and fermented pineapple juice), and P2 (2 L drinking water + 20 mL probiotic supplementation and fermented pineapple juice). The results showed that between the control treatment and the addition of fermented pineapple juice and probiotic tended to be similar in terms of feed consumption, body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and mortality ratio. The highest IOFCC value was in treatments P0 (Rp 2.177/head), P1 (Rp 2.050/head), and P2 (Rp 1.997/head). The costs of supplementation are not offset by the increase in chicken performance which can increase income.
