Pengaruh Pemberian Vitamin C Dengan Kepadatan Kandang Yang Beerbeda Tehadap Produksi Karkas Ayam Broiler

terhadap Produksi Karkas Ayam Broiler The Effect of Vitamin C Supply with Different Cage Densities on Broiler Chicken Carcass Production

Abstract

This study investigated the effect of vitamin C supplementation on broiler carcass yield at the Undana Dryland facility at the Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Marine Affairs, and Fisheries, Nusa Cendana University. PT. 192 day-old chicks (DOC) of CP707 brand were used. They were fed commercial feeds CP11 and CP12 produced by Charoen Pokphand Group. This completely randomized design (CRD) experiment used a 3 x 3 factorial model with nine treatment combinations and four replications, for a total of 36 treatment units. The first factor was stocking density, which varied from 3 birds/0.5 m2, 5 birds/0.5 m2, and 8 birds/0.5 m2, respectively. The second factor was vitamin C, which was added at concentrations of 200 mg, 250 mg, and 300 mg. The study found an interaction between vitamin C and stocking density on final body weight, but not on non-carcass percentage and abdominal fat percentage (P value < 0.05). The cage density significantly affected the final body weight (P > 0.05), but not significantly affected the carcass percentage, non-carcass percentage, or abdominal fat percentage. The results of the study were that cage density and vitamin C significantly affected the final body weight, but not significantly affected the carcass percentage, non-carcass percentage, or abdominal fat percentage. Birds treated with K1C1 (3 birds/0.5 m2, vitamin C 200 mg/L) and K3C1 (8 birds/0.5 m2, vitamin C 200 mg/L) had the highest and lowest body weights, respectively

ABSTRAK

Studi ini menyelidiki pengaruh suplementasi vitamin C terhadap hasil karkas broiler di fasilitas Lahan Kering Undana di Fakultas Peternakan, Kelautan, dan Perikanan, Universitas Nusa  Cendana. PT. 192 anak ayam umur sehari (DOC) merek CP707 digunakan. Mereka diberi pakan komersial CP11 dan CP12 yang diproduksi oleh Charoen Pokphand Group. Percobaan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) ini menggunakan model faktorial 3 x 3 dengan sembilan kombinasi perlakuan dan empat ulangan, dengan total 36 unit perlakuan. Faktor pertama ialah kepadatan kandang, yang bervariasi dari 3 ekor/0,5 m2, 5 ekor/0,5 m2, dan 8 ekor/0,5 m2, secara berurutan. Faktor kedua ialah vitamin C, yang ditambahkan pada konsentrasi 200 mg, 250 mg, dan 300 mg.Hasil studi ialahadanya interaksi antara vitamin C dan kepadatan kandang terhadap berat badan akhir, tetapi tidak terhadap persentase non-karkas dan persentase lemak abdomen (nilai P < 0,05). Kepadatan kandang signifikan nyata terhadap berat badan akhir (P > 0,05), tetapi tidak signifikan nyata terhadap persentase karkas, persentase non-karkas, maupun persentase lemak abdomen. Hasil studi ialah  kepadatan kandang dan vitamin C signifikan terhadap berat badan akhir, tetapi tidak signifikan terhadap persentase karkas, persentase non-karkas, maupun persentase lemak abdomen. Unggas yang diberi perlakuan K1C1 (3 ekor/0,5 m2, vitamin C 200 mg/L) dan K3C1 (8 ekor/0,5 m2, vitamin C 200 mg/L) masing-masing memiliki berat badan tertinggi dan terendah.
