Kecernaan Protein Kasar Dan Serat Kasar Serta Laju Digesta Pada Ayam Arab Yang Diberi Ransum Dengan Berbagai Level Azolla Microphylla

Abstract

The study aims to determine the effect of A. microphylla in Arab hens rations on digestibility protein phase layer, crude fiber digestibility and rate of digesta rations. The benefits of research can provide information on the utilization of A. microphylla as a phase Arabic chicken layer ration. This research used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications. Each repeat experiment using 4 units of livestock. The treatment given is the gift of Azolla microphylla different levels (0%, 3%, 6% and 9%). Parameters measured were protein digestibility, crude fiber digestibility and rate of digesta. The materials used are 80 Arab laying hens (age ± 8 months), rice bran, yellow corn flour, A. microphylla, poultry meat meal, CaCO3, Fe2O3 indicator, 0.2 N HCl, vitachick. Equipment that will be used is battery cages, where food and drink, egg tray, hygrometer, thermometer, scales, sprays, cardboard, plastic. The research method used 3 stages, the preparation and adaptation of livestock for 1 week, during the 6-week treatment phase and the retrieval phase for 4 weeks. The results showed that hens fed rations treated Arabs have no real effect with the provision of A. microphylla to ration consumption, digestibility of crude protein, crude fiber digestibility, digesta rate and body weight gain
