Pengaruh Tingkat Protein Dalam Ransum Terhadap Performan Entok Lokal (Muscovy Duck) Pada Periode Pertumbuhan

Suatu penelitian untuk mengetahui pengaruh tingkat protein dalam ransum terhadap performan entok local (Muscovy Duck) pada periode pertumbuhan telah dilakukan di desa Wetan Kecamatan Garut Kota Kabupaten Garut dari bulan Mei hingga bulan Oktober 2005. Penelitian menggunakan 50 ekor DOD entok local yang secara acak ditempatkan pada 25 kandang. Penelitian menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap dengan lima perlakuan ransum mengandung protein 12%, 14%, 16%, 18% dan 20%. Peubah yang diukur meliputi konsumsi ransum, pertambahan bobot badan dan konversi ransum. Data dianalisis dengan Sidik Ragam dan untuk mengetahui perbedaan antar perlakuan dilakukan Uji Duncan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat protein ransum sangat berpengaruh terhadap performan entok lokal dan performan yang paling baik diperoleh pada entok yang diberi ransum yang mengandung 18 – 20%.

A research to find out the effect of protein level in diet on performance of local duck (Muscovy Duck) on growing period has been carried out at Desa Wetan, Kecamatan Garut Kota, Garut Regency from May to October 2005. The research used fifty birds of local duck which were placed randomly into twenty five cages. The experiment used Completely Randomized Design with five treatments of diets containing 12%, 14%, 16%, 18% and 20% level of protein. The observed parameters were feed consumption, weight gain and feed conversion. The data analized by variance analysis and to find out the difference among treatments used Duncan Test. The result indicated that the level protein in diet had significant effect on performance and the best performance were gained by local ducks which were fed by diet containing 18-20% protein level.
