Abstract

Natural liquid probiotic products have the potential as an alternative feed additive to laying quail which is given through drinking water. This probiotic product can be obtained from pineapple peel waste that has undergone a silage process. The aim of this research was to determine the effectiveness of natural liquid probiotics derived from pineapple peel silage (SKN) on the quality of laying quail eggs. The research method was experimental with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments with 4 replications. The treatments applied were: The treatments given were S0 (drinking water without probiotics); S1 (0.5% commercial probiotic via drinking water); S2 (1% SKN liquid probiotics through drinking water), P3 (2% SKN liquid probiotics through drinking water); P4 (3% SKN liquid probiotics through drinking water). The parameters measured are egg weight, egg white index, egg yolk index, and haugh units. The results of the study showed that giving SKN fluid at different levels did not have a significant effect (P>0.05) on egg weight (10.48-10.57 grams/piece), egg white index (0.055-0.056), egg yolk index. (0.41-0.42), and unit height (106.26-107.19). The research conclusion was that the addition of SKN probiotic fluid up to a level of 3% through drinking water was able to maintain the physical quality of quail eggs which included egg weight, egg white index, egg yolk index and haugh units.

Abstract

Palm frond leaves have the potential to be used as ruminant feed in the form of silage with the addition of tofu and corn pulp flour as an effort to improve the quality of silage products. The purpose of the study was to assess the fermentation quality and invitro digestibility of palm frond silage supplemented with tofu and corn bagasse flour. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) method with 4 treatments and 5 replicates arranged, namely: P0 = 100% palm fronds; P1 = 100% palm fronds + 5% molasses; P2 = 100% palm fronds + 5% tofu pulp + 5% corn f bran + 5% molasses; P3 = 100% palm fronds + 10% tofu pulp + 10% corn bran + 5% molasses and P4 = 100% palm fronds + 15% tofu pulp + 15% corn bran + 5% molasses. Parameters observed included NH3 production (mM), total VFA (mM), DMD (%) and DMO (%). The results showed that supplementation of tofu dregs flour and corn flour with various proportions affected the rumen fermentation value and invitro digestibility (P<0.05) of palm frond silage. The higher the addition of tofu dregs flour and corn bran had an effect on increasing rumen fermentability and overall invitro digestibility. The conclusion of this research is that treatment P4 = 100% palm fronds + 15% tofu dregs + 15% corn bran + 5% molasses is able to improve the quality of rumen fermentation and invitro digestibility of palm frond silage
