Popis: | The aim of this research was to optimize the role of lauric acid (LA) and feed fiber (FF) to increase the performance of the broiler. In total 360 unsex Lohmann MB 202-P broiler chicken were divided into 36 experimental unit in this research. A factorial experiment consist two factors based on completely randomized design was applied, the first factor was level of LA i.e. 1.30%; 1.95%; and 2.60%, while second factor was level of crude fiber (FF) i.e. 5%, 6%, 7%, and 8% in the diet. The level of LA was equivalent with coconut oil application in feed that is 3%. Each experimental unit was repeated three times, each treatment combination was applied to 30 birds. The observed variables were weight gain, cumulative feed intakes, feed conversion, and final body weight. Result showed that utilization of LA and FF significantly affected (P0.05). This study indicated that the using of 1.95% LA and 8% FF on the diet would have optimized cumulative feed intake, weight gain, feed conversion ratio and final body weight of broiler. |
