Abstract

<p class="abstrak2">In this experiment, we investigate the effect of modified banana tuber meal (M-BTM) to substitute dietary maize in growing-finisher colored-feathered hybrid duck. One hundred and ninety six hybrid ducks (Pekin x Khaki Campbell) with 421.31 ± 0.183g body weight (BW) were allotted to 5 dietary treatments with 9 ducks (unsexed) per pen and 4 replications per treatment. These dietary treatments were: NC (negative control; maize-soyabean-meal based diet), BTM25 (25% maize was replaced by M-BTM-), BTM50 (50% maize was replaced by M-BTM), BTM75 (75% maize was replaced by M-BTM), and BTM100 (100% maize was replaced by M-BTM). The experimental design applied using completely randomize design (CRD). Data of this experiment were statistically analysed by one-way-analysis-of-variance of SAS University version 4.0 red hat (64-bit) University Online Edition. Result demonstrated that M-BTM improved significantly (p&lt; 0.05) digestibility of dry matter and crude protein. It is concluded that M-BTM enhanced apparently growth performaces and digestibility parameters of colored-feathered hybrid duck (Pekin x Khaki Campbell).</p>

Highlights

Demand for poultry products have raised every year, according to Sjofjan et al (2021) the poultry protein needed raised year to year

There were curve linear decrease in the growing phase 1, 2, and finisher phase in feed intake as the level of modified banana tuber meal increased in formulated diet (Figure 1)

Summary

Introduction

Demand for poultry products have raised every year, according to Sjofjan et al (2021) the poultry protein needed raised year to year. One potential feed to replace maize were banana tuber meal since this root meal had similar energy content and low protein but high in crude fiber. This study was carried out to investigate the effect modified banana tuber meal to promote replacement of maize in growing-finisher rations of colored-feathered hybrid.
