Abstract

The success of poultry business can be determined by several factors, one of them is feed. Feed has a high contribution in a total cost of production, there are three types of feed forms for broilers such as mash, crumble and pellets. Pellet feed form is made from mash which is heated and compressed by a pelleting machine into a compact pellet. Unlike other feed forms, pellet is containing binder without breaking apart when touched. In order to make a compact pellet is require a binder that comes from starchy natural materials such as cassava flour, tapioca flour and molasses. Cassava flour can be found easily in many areas in Indonesia with affordable price. The use of cassava flour as the binder is effective due to the cassava flour is rich of glycoside bonds called starch. In the way of making pellet, conditioning process allows starch in cassava flour to form gelatinization and make a bond with the particle of feedstuffs in order to form a hard and compact pellet. The research was conducted at Animal Nutrition and Feed Laboratory Brawijaya University, Malang East Java for pellet processing. The implementation of study began in February to March 2018. The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of cassava flour in broiler pellet feed quality on density, water content and pellet durability index. The materials used were broiler feed consists of rice bran, corn, soy bean meal, fish meal, meat bone meal, premix, salt, methionine, coconut oil and cassava flour. The data were obtained on this research was ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method and continued by Duncan Mean Range Test (DMRT). The treatment on this research were T0 = Pellet Feed Material without Cassava Flour addition, T1 = Pellet Feed Material + 2.5% Cassava Flour, T2 = Pellet Feed Material + 5% Cassava Flour, T3 = Pellet Feed Material + 7.5% Cassava Flour, T4 = Pellet Feed Material + 10% Cassava Flour. The results showed the highest value for density was on T4 (648.28 ± 2.07g / l) and the lowest was on T0 (616.02 ± 4.50g / l). The highest value for water content was on T4 (5.58 ± 0.10%) and the lowest was on T0 (4.81 ± 0.06%). The highest value for pellet durability index was on T4 (98.26 ± 0.15%) and the lowest was on T0 (97.71 ± 0.14%). The analytical statistic results showed there were a high significantly (P<0,01) different on density, water content and the pellet durability index. It can be concluded that cassava flour level in poultry pellet feed processing is able to increase the quality of pellet based on density, water content and pellet durability index. The addition of 10% cassava flour on broiler pellet processing has the best quality of pellet in case of the durability is very good.

English Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of cassava flour level to quality of broiler pellet feed on density, water content and pellet durability index (PDI). The materials used in the study were broiler feed consisting of rice bran, corn, soy bean meal, fish meal, meat bone meal, premix, salt, methionine, coconut oil and cassava flour. The variable measurement used were density, water content and pellet durability index. The data were obtained on this research was ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) with Completely Randomized Design (CRD) method and continued by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The treatment on this research were T0 = Pellet Feed Material without Cassava Flour addition, T1 = Pellet Feed Material + 2.5% Cassava Flour, T2 = Pellet Feed Material + 5% Cassava Flour, T3 = Pellet Feed Material + 7.5% Cassava Flour, T4 = Pellet Feed Material + 10% Cassava Flour. The results showed was a high significantly (P<0,01) different on density, water content and the pellet durability index. It can be concluded that, the use of cassava flour level in poultry pellet feed processing is able to increase the quality of pellet based on density, water content and pellet durability index. The addition of 10% cassava flour to broiler pellet feed processing has the best quality of pellet in case of the durability is very good.
