Abstract

Forage consisting of grass and legumes is an important aspect of ruminant but availability is often dependent on the rainy season so preservation technology is needed, namely silage. This study aimed to determine the nutritional content of silage made from a mixture of Pennisetum purpureum and Sesbania grandiflora with different doses of fermentation additives. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used, consisting of four treatments with five replications. They were P0: (75% Pennisetum purpureum + 25% Sesbania grandiflora), P1: (75% Pennisetum purpureum + 25% Sesbania grandiflora + 0.1% additive), P2: (75% Pennisetum purpureum + 25% Sesbania grandiflora + 0.2% additive), P3: (75% Pennisetum purpureum + 25% Sesbania grandiflora + 0.3% additive). Each treatment was added 2% molasses and incubated for 21 days. The results showed that the addition of fermentation additives had no significant effect (P>0.05) on DM and OM content but had a highly significant effect (P<0.01) on increasing CP, EE, and TDN content and reducing CF content. The highest average DM and OM values were observed in P0 (21.02% and 89.27%, respectively), while the highest average increases in CP, EE, and TDN were found in P3 (15.31%, 2.85%, and 50.32%, respectively), and the greatest reduction in CF was also recorded in P3 (27.89%).

Abstract

In tropical areas like Indonesia, the presence of forage feed is significantly impacted by seasonal changes, resulting in abundance during the wet season and scarcity during the dry season. Agricultural waste is a solution as an alternative animal feed, one of which is corn stover. Research aimed at determining the nutritional composition of corn stover fermented with different fermentor was conducted at the Nutrition and Animal Feed Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Science, University of Mataram. This research was organized based on a completely randomized design with four treatments and five replications. They were T0: 1 kg corn stover (CS) without treatment, T1: 1 kg CS + 40 g Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC); T2: 1 kg CS + 40 ml MA-11; T3: 1 kg CS + 20 gr SC + 20 ml MA-11. The variables observed were physical properties such as colour, texture and aroma and nutritional content (Dry matter (DM), Organic matter (OM), Crude Protein (CP), Crude Fibre (CF) and Crude Fat (CFa). The results showed that the addition of SC and MA-11 not give a significant effect (P>0.05) on CFa. However, the addition of them had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the decrease of DM, BO and SK content and the increase of PK content. The highest average BK and OM contents were obtained in T0 (control) at 81.44%, and 82.20%, the highest average CP and CFa contents were obtained in T2 (MA-11) at 9.36%, and 1.90%. The lowest average CF content was obtained in T2 (MA-11) at 26.40%.
