Abstract

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of commercial feed compared with non-concentrate formulated feed on the productivity of laying hens. The experiment was conducted at PT Sitinrola Organik, Bone Regency, for 14 days using 64 laying hens divided into two treatments: P0 (control/commercial feed) and P1 (non-concentrate feed), with 32 replications each. The observed parameters included feed intake, body weight gain, and egg production percentage. The results showed that feed intake in the P1 treatment was significantly lower than in P0 (p < 0.05). However, body weight gain did not differ significantly between treatments (p > 0.05), although a slight increase was observed in P1. In contrast, the egg production percentage in P1 decreased significantly compared with P0 (p < 0.05). The reduction in feed intake and egg production in P1 was likely influenced by the low quality and palatability of the feed due to the absence of concentrate as well as feed storage factors. In conclusion, non-concentrate feed was not able to fully replace commercial feed in supporting the optimal productivity of laying hens in the short term
