Abstract
This study aims to determine the growth performance, and lipids profile of meat native chicken fed substitution fermented banana peel in feed. Using a completely randomized design, male native chickens (n=200) were randomly distributed into four treatment groups (5 replicates with 10 chickens per replicate). The treatments consisted of T1 (basal diet without substitution). T2, T3, and T4 substitution of fermented banana peel 5, 10, and 15%, respectively. The results showed that the nutrient digestibility of the feed was not affected by the substitution treatment of fermented banana peel in the feed. The performance of native chickens increased significantly (P<0.05) in the feed treatment with fermented banana peel substitution by up to 10%. Dietary substitution with supplementation of banana peel in native chickens decreased the total cholesterol, triglycerides, and HDL levels. It may be concluded that the fermented banana peel can be used as an alternative nutrient in native chicken feed, increasing productivity.
