This study aims to determine, evaluate and analyze the effect of Chromolaena odorata (CO) silage levels in concentrate ration ingredients on the consumption of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, metabolic energy, pH, NH3, and VFA of rumen fluid and animal body weight gain, in vivo. This study used a Latin square design (RBSL) with three tre...

Context 1
... gain is a reflection of the accumulation of consumption, fermentation, and metabolism processes as well as absorption of food substances in livestock. The average value of the effect of the treatment ration on body weight gain can be seen in Fig.1. It is evident in the table that the western mean of livestock body resulting from the level of CO, namely (RCO30) is 0.511 kg/head/day, then followed by rations with a level of CO of 40% (RCO40) of 0.411 kg/head/day and the lowest by rations with a level of C. odorata of 50% (RCO50) which is 0.355 kg/head/day with the overall average was 0.43 kg/head/day. ...

Graphically, the effect of treatment rations on the bodyweight of research livestock can be seen in Fig. 1. The results of variance showed that the treatment had no significant effect (P>0.05) on the weight gain of livestock. This means that all treatments have the same effect on the experimental livestock used. Although the treatment did not show a difference in the effect of the level of CO on body weight gain, it could be explained that ...

The vegetation and ecosystems of the Paracel Islands are extremely fragile and very difficult to restore after destruction. Chromolaena odorata is one of the most common invasive plants as guano phosphorus input constantly decreasing for islands, which has caused substantial harm to native vegetation on the Paracel Islands in recent years. In the c...

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh lama waktu biofermentasi Chromolaena odorata dengan sumber karbon tepung putak terhadap konsentrasi VFA persial dan produksi gas metan. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode percobaan dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 4 kali perlakuan dan 4 kali ulangan sehingga terdapat 16 unit percobaan. Adapun taraf perlakuan adalah sebagai berikut: LB21 = Lama biofermentasi selama 21 hari (sebagai kontrol), LB14 = Lama biofermentasi selama 14 hari, LB7 = Lama biofermentasi selama 7 hari, LB0 = Lama biofermentasi selama 0 hari. Variabel yang diteliti adalah konsentrasi Asetat, Propionat, Butirat, Valerat dan produksi gas metan. Hasil penelitian sebagai berikut : LB21: asetat sebesar 12,06 mM, propionat sebesar 2,98 mM, butirat 1,22 mM, valerat sebesar 0,35 mM dan produksi gas metan sebesar 2,80 mM; LB14 : asetat sebesar 10,60 mM, propionat sebesar 3,04 mM, butirat 1,39 mM, valerat sebesar 0,33 mM dan produksi gas metan sebesar 2,48 mM; LB7: asetat sebesar 10,89 mM, propionat sebesar 2,83 mM, butirat 0,82 mM, valerat sebesar 0,28 mM dan produksi gas metan sebesar 2,51 mM; LB0: asetat sebesar 14,03 mM, propionat sebesar 3,02 mM, butirat 1,59 mM, valerat sebesar 0,30 mM dan produksi gas metan sebesar 3,45 mM. Hasil analisis statistik menunjukkan bahwa pengaruh lama waktu biofermentasi Chromolaena odorata dengan sumber carbon tepung putak berpengaruh tidak nyata (P>0.05) terhadap konsentrasi asam asetat, propionat, butirat valerat dan produksi gas metan. Disimpulkan bahwa lama waktu biofermentasi dengan sumber karbon tepung putak tidak meningkatkan konsentrasi asam asetat, propionat, butirat, valerat dan produksi gas metan.
