Status DCAD Pakan dan Hubungannya Dengan Produksi Susu dan Gangguan Metabolisme Pada Sapi Perah Laktasi di Peternakan Rakyat Bogor

Abstract

Ketosis merupakan gangguan metabolik yang sering menyerang sapi perah laktasi dan berpotensi menurunkan produksi susu. Gangguan ini dapat dicegah dengan mengatur DCAD (Dietary Cation Anion Difference) ransum. Penelitian ini bertujuan mempelajari manajemen DCAD pada sapi laktasi yang dipelihara di wilayah Bogor (Kebon Pedes dan KUNAK) serta mengevaluasi hubungannya dengan produksi susu dan kejadian gangguan metabolisme dari 15 peternak di setiap wilayah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan DCAD ransum 100% positif dengan kisaran wilayah Kebon Pedes 4,2

Ketosis is a metabolic disorder that often affects lactating dairy cows and can potentially reduce milk production. This disorder can be prevented by adjusting the DCAD (Dietary Cation Anion Difference) in the diet. This study aims to investigate DCAD management in lactating cows raised in the Bogor area (Kebon Pedes and KUNAK) and evaluate its relationship with milk production and the incidence of metabolic disorders among 15 farmers in each area. The study results showed that the DCAD in the diet was 100% positive, with the range for Kebon Pedes being 4.2±187.4 100 kg-1 DM and for KUNAK 54.52±217.06 100 kg-1 DM. A positive DCAD is necessary during the lactation period. Milk production in Kebon Pedes was 13.67 day-1 cow-1 , while in KUNAK, it was 15.87 day-1 cow-1 . The incidence of ketosis was observed in 13% of cows in Kebon Pedes and 6% in KUNAK. ANOVA analysis of both areas showed that livestock performance and production in KUNAK (landbase) were better than in Kebon Pedes (landless). Based on these findings, it can be concluded that DCAD management in KUNAK is better, thus feed management improvement is needed, especially in Kebon Pedes, to increase milk production and reduce metabolic disorders
