ABSTRAK. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kinerja produksi dan kualitas telur ayam petelur yang diberi air gambut (AG) dan air non gambut (ANG). Penelitian ini menggunakan 30 ekor ayam petelur strain lohman brown umur 15 bulan dengan pemberian pakan ransum komersial. Penelitian terdiri dari dua kelompok ayam dengan jumlah masing-masing 15 ekor. Kelompok pertama diberi minum AG dan kelompok kedua diberi ANG. Peubah yang diamati adalah konsumsi air minum, konsumsi ransum, produksi dan massa telur, konversi ransum, bobot telur, indeks putih telur, indeks kuning telur, tebal cangkang telur dan nilai haugh unit. Data penelitian dianalisis dengan uji-t untuk mengetahui perbedaan antar kelompok perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konsumsi air minum, konsumsi ransum dan konversi ransum secara statistik berbeda nyata. Konsumsi air minum pada perlakuan AG (286,57 ml/ekor/hari) lebih tinggi dari pada perlakuan ANG (264,24 ml/ekor/hari), demikian juga konsumsi ransum (98,82 g/ekor/hari vs 90,10 g/ekor/hari). Sedangkan konversi ransum pada perlakuan AG (2,71) lebih baik dari pada perlakuan ANG (3,18). Pada peubah kualitas telur hanya bobot telur yang menunjukkan perbedaan nyata. Bobot telur pada perlakuan AG (55,85 g/butir) lebih tinggi dari pada perlakuan ANG (54,18 g/butir). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pemberian minum dengan AG mampu memperbaiki kinerja produksi ayam petelur, terlihat dari konsumsi air minum, konsumsi dan konversi ransum. Sedangkan pada kualitas telur hanya terlihat dari bobot telur. (Performance and egg quality of laying hen given peat water and non peat water) ABSTRACT. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance and egg quality of laying hens given peat water (PW) and non-peat water (NPW). This study used 30 laying hens strain lohman brown aged 15 months with commercial ration feeding. The study consisted of two groups of chickens with 15 chickens each. The first group was given PW and the second group was given NPW. The variables observed were water consumption, feed consumption, egg production and mass, FCR, egg weight, albumin and yolk index, egg shell thickness and haugh unit value. Data obtained were analyzed using t-test to determine the differences between treatment groups. The results showed that water consumption, feed consumption and FCR were statistically difference. The daily water consumption in PW treatment (286.57 ml/bird/day) was higher than in NPW treatment (264.24 ml/bird/day), as was ration consumption (98.82 g/bird/day vs 90.10 g/ bird/day). While the ration conversion in PW treatment (2.71) was better than that of NPW treatment (3.18). In the egg quality variable, only egg weight showed a significant difference. Egg weight in PW treatment (55.85 g/egg) was higher than in NPW treatment (54.18 g/egg). The conclusion of this experiment was the given peat water to laying hens was able to improve the production performance, indicated by water consumption, feed consumption and FCR. Meanwhile, the quality of eggs can only be seen from the egg weight.
<p class="awabstrak2">The free-range system is a currentmodel of chicken production according to the concept of Animal Welfare. This article aims to discuss how the free-range system was implemented and its effect on health, performance and quality product as well as free-range development strategies as an alternative to chicken production systems. The free-range system must have access to outdoor to express their natural behavior. Based on regulation, the density of chickens in outdoor is a maximum of 10,000 birds/ha. Chickens reared using the free-range system show better welfare indicators, as evidenced by the Heterophil/Lymphocyte (H/L) value and the frequency of their natural behavior. Chicken eggs from the free-range system contain higher levels of protein and carotenoid. It also contains omega-3 & 6, DHA, vitamins A and E and have lower cholesterol level. Chicken meat from the free-range system contains higher protein and lower fat levels. However, the performance of chicken production using free-range system was still not consistent and was greatly influenced by the type of forage in the pasture. The introduction of grazing land with superior forage such as <em>Indigofera zollingeriana</em> and choosing kampung or local type of chickens may become development strategies of chicken production in the free range system.</p>
Among consumers have different decision in choosing meat broiler. This study aims to know segments potential meat broiler consumers, preference of consumers in choosing meat broiler and find the factors that affecting the amount of meat broiler consumpsion in traditional markets in subdistrict Kampar Province of Riau. The primary data was obtained by interviewing 90 respondents using questionaire. Descriptive analysis and regression analysis were used to analyse data. Variable observed is respondents profile, attribute chicken and the factors that affecting the amount of consumption. This research result indicates segments potential meat broiler consumers in traditional markets in Subdistrict Kampar is a female, who has range age 30-40 years, having 3-5 family numbers with the level of high school education, senior high school or equivalent background and have a job as a farmer. Attribute chicken broiler trade which became preference of consumers in traditional markets Subdistrict Kampar, the price of affordable they can bargain, nutrition content high, cleanliness meat, smell, color fresh and texture chicken broiler spongy. While the factors that affecting the amount of their consumption of meat broiler chicken in traditional markets Subdistrict Kampar are the price of meat broiler, the number of family members and price other meat. Factor income is not significant influence consumption where factors the number of family members and price other meat have had a positive impact on the number of consumption. While factors the price of meat broiler itself has negative effects on the number of their consumption of meat broiler chicken.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh substitusi ransum komersial dengan tepung keong mas (TKM) terhadap performa puyuh periode grower yang meliputi konsumsi ransum, pertambahan bobot badan dan konversi ransum. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Mei 2017 di UIN Agricultural Research and Development Station (UARDS), Fakultas Pertanian dan Peternakan UIN Suska Riau. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan menggunakaan 4 perlakuan yaitu: T0= Ransum komersial, T1= 5% TKM + 95% ransum komersial, T2= 10% TKM + 90% ransum komersial dan T3= 15% TKM + 85% ransum komersial. Hewan percobaan yang digunakan adalah puyuh petelur umur 14 sampai 42 hari yang dipelihara dalam 16 petak kandang dan tiap kandang terdiri dari 4 ekor puyuh. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa substitusi TKM sampai level 15% tidak berpengaruh terhadap konsumsi, pertambahan bobot badan dan konversi ransum. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah substitusi ransum komersial dengan TKM sampai level 15% dapat diaplikasikan di dalam dalam ransum puyuh periode grower. Kata kunci : puyuh, tepung keong mas, ransum komersial dan performa
