Effect of Additional Feed Supplement Fermentation Shrimp Waste Extract on Digestibility in Sentul Chicken Growth Phase

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of adding feed supplements of fermented shrimp waste extract in the ration on the digestibility of local chicken rations in the growth phase. The research was carried out in Jatinangor District as well as the Laboratory of Ruminant Animal Nutrition and Animal Feed Chemistry, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Padjadjaran University, Sumedang. The method used in this study was experimental with a Complete Randomized Design (RAL). The data were analyzed by fingerprint test (ANOVA) with further tests using the Dunnet test. The object of this study consisted of 20 Sentul chickens raised from the age of 1 day to 12 weeks, divided into 5 treatments and 4 tests. The treatment consists of P0 = Basal ration without the addition of feed supplement fermented shrimp waste extract, P1 = Basal ration + 0.5% feed supplement fermented shrimp waste extract, P2 = Basal ration + 1.0% feed supplement fermented shrimp waste extract, P3 = Basal ration + 1.5% feed supplement fermented shrimp waste extract, and P4 = Basal ration + 2.0% feed supplement fermented shrimp waste extract. The changes observed are the digestibility of dry matter, the digestibility of organic matter, and the digestibility of proteins. The results showed that the addition of feed supplements for fermented shrimp waste extract had a significantly different influence on the digestibility of dry matter, the digestibility of organic matter, and the digestibility of protein. This study concludes that the addition of a feed supplement of 2% fermented shrimp waste extract in the ration can produce a high ration digestibility value for Sentul chicken in the growth phase.
