| dc.description.abstract | This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of feeding PKC-cassava byproduct mixture fermented by Aspergillus niger in ration on broiler performance. This research used 96 DOC broiler. The birds were reared in litter floor pen and were fed 0 (P0), 10 (P1), 20 (P2), and 30% (P3) of the fermented PKC-cassava byproduct mixture in the ration. Feed and water were given ad libitum and reared for 6 weeks. The experiment used Completely Randomized Design with 4 ration treatments and 4 replications and each replication consisted of 6 birds. Data were analyzed statistically using ANOVA and continued with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. The result showed that diet treatments did not affect ration consumption, gain, ration conversion, carcass percentage, meat crude fat, and blood cholesterol, but affected abdominal fat percentage, and IOFC. Utilization of fermented PKC-cassava byproduct mixture untill 30% in the ration was comparable with the control diet. | id |
