Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of adding concentrated feed containing fermented banana corm meal included into Bali cattle rations fattening farmers’ patterns on their feed consumption, digestibility of dry matter and organic matter. This study used 12 Bali cattle with the age ranged from 1.5 - 2 years and their body weight of 105-120kg. The research method used was a completely randomized design with four treatments and three replicates. The four treatments were: T0 = basal feed breeder pattern + concentrate without fermented banana corm meal; T1 = basal feed breeder pattern + concentrate with 10% fermented banana corm meal; T2 = basal feed of breeder pattern + concentrate with fermented banana corm meal 20%; and T3 = basal feed of breeder pattern + concentrate with 30% fermented banana corm meal. The statistics analyses showed that the treatment had no significant effect (P> 0.05) on the consumption digestibility of DM and OM from Balinese cattle fattening farmers’ patterns. The conclusion was the addition of concentrated feed with fermented banana corm meal with different levels offering the same effect between treatments on feed consumption, digestibility of DM and OM from Bali cattle fattening farmers’ patterns.
