Efek Pemberian Wafer Suplemen Pakan Mengandung Daun Lamtoro (Leucaena Leucocephala) terhadap Konsumsi dan Kecernaan Pakan Domba Lokal

Abstract

Feed is an important aspect for productivity of livestock. Low quality feed can reduce the productivity of the livestock, so wafer of fed supplement is one of alternative. Wafer lamtoro supplement is one of the feed processing products that have high nutritional value that can help increase the production of livestock. This research aimed to assess the effect of wafer fed supplement on nutrient consumption and digestibility of local sheep rations. This research used Randomized Block Design with 4 treatments and 3 blocks as replicate and used 12 heads of local sheep with initial body weight 24.54±10.51 kg. Treatments were P0 = basal diet + 0% wafer of feed supplement (control); P1 = basal diet + 5% wafer of feed supplement; P2 = basal diet + 10% wafer of feed supplement; P3 = basal diet + 15% wafer of feed supplement. The Results showed that wafer fed supplement had significantly effect (p<0.05) for nutrient consumption, crude protein digestibility, final body weight and feed efficiency but not significant for dry matter digestibility, organic matter digestibility and crude fiber digestibility
