Abstract
The aim of the research was to study the effect of complete feed contained different level of buffalo rumen content as probiotic on feed fermentability of Balibul local sheep. Materials used in this study were 16 heads male local sheep under 5 months of age (Balibul), average body weight 11.58 + 0.77 kg. Experimental design used was completely randomized design (CRD), consisting 4 treatments and 4 replications. Treatments used were T0 (complete feed without buffalo rumen content supplementation), T1 (complete feed supplemented with 5% buffalo rumen content), T2 (complete feed supplemented with 10% buffalo rumen content) and T3 (complete feed supplemented with 15% buffalo rumen content). Parameters observed were VFA, NH3 and total proten production. Collected data were tested statistically using analysis of variance at 95% confidence interval. Result of the research showed that complete feed supplemented with different level of buffalo rumen content had significant difference (P<0.05) on total VFA and total protein production, but no significant difference (P>0.05) on NH3 production. Total VFA production of T0, T1, T2 and T3 treatments were 80.00; 112.50; 105.00 and 107.50 mM, respectively. NH3production of T0, T1, T2 and T3 treatments were 5.35; 6.29; 5.76 and 6.47 mM, respectively. Total protein production of T0, T1, T2 and T3 were 403.70; 471.44; 419.76 and 464.00 mg/g, respectively. It was concluded that 5% buffalo rumen content supplementation in complete feed resulting the best feed fermentability.
