Kecernaan Nutrien pada Kambing Perah yang Diberi Ransum dengan Penambahan Daun Ginseng Jawa (Talinum Paniculatum Gaertn)

Abstract

An experiment was designed in order to study the nutrients digestibility in dairy goat offered diets containing java jinsom leaf. The research was conducted in a dairy goat barn in Animal Research Center, Ciawi, Bogor from May until July 2012. This study used 9 cross breed dairy goats with average weight of 32.96 ± 3.14 kg. The goats were on the 2nd lactation periode and had an average milk yield of 1 liter/day. The dietary treatments were: G0= forage ad-libitum (3000 g – 4500 g) + concentrate 43% dry matter intake + gliricidia 12% dry matter intake G1= G0 + java jinsomleaf 3% dry matter intake; G2= G0 + java jinsom leaf 6% dry matter intake. The treatment were allocated in a completely randomized design with 3treatments and 3replications. The Parameters measured were feedintake, nutrients digestibility, total digestible nutrient (TDN), and milk yield. The different among treatments tested by Contrast Polynomial Orthogonal. The result showed that treatments did notaffect the parameter observed. Feeding grass adlibitum and concentrate 43% dry matter indicated low quality, but fulfilled protein and fat requirements for maintenance and production of the animal. Feeding java jinsom leaf until 6% dry matter did not increase milk yield of sapera dairy goat offered low quality feed.
