KOMPOSISI FISIK KARKAS BROILER YANG DIBERIKAN EKSTRAK DAUN KELOR (Moringa oliefera) TERFERMENTASI MELALUI AIR MINUM

Abstrak

The study aimed to evaluate the effect of fermented Moringa (Moringa oliefera) leaf
extract given through drinking water on the physical composition of broiler carcasses. A total
of 90 day-old broilers (Day-Old Chicks) of CP 707 strain produced by PT Charoen Pokphand
Indonesia, Tbk, were used in this study. The study used a completely randomized design
(CRD) with 3 treatments namely EF0/control, EF1 3% and EF2 6% fermented moringa leaf
extract in drinking water and each treatment was carried out a total of 6 repetitions, resulting in
18 experimental units. The observed variables were: slaughter weight, carcass weight, meat
percentage, bone percentage, and skin and fat percentage. The results of adding 3% (EF1) and
6% (EF2) fermented moringa extract to drinking water significantly (P<0.05) increased the
meat percentage by 7.04% and 10.38% respectively compared to EF0/control. EF1 and EF2
treatments significantly (P<0.05) decreased the percentage of skin and fat by 21.17% and
35.78%, respectively, compared to EF0/control. The results of the study showed that feeding
fermented moringa extract up to 6% had no significant impact (P>0.05) on slaughter weight,
carcass weight, and bone percentage. It was concluded that feeding fermented moringa extract
through drinking water at 3% and 6% increased meat percentage and decreased skin-fat
percentage, but did not affect slaughter weight, carcass weight, and bone percentage of broilers.
It is recommended to use the 6% treatment of fermented moringa extract through drinking
water on the physical composition of broiler carcasses.

ABSTRAK 

Penelitian bertujuan mengevaluasi pengaruh ekstrak daun kelor (Moringa oliefera)
fermentasi yang diberikan melalui air minum terhadap komposisi fisik karkas broiler. Sebanyak
90 ekor broiler berumur satu hari (Day-Old Chicks) dari strain CP 707 yang diproduksi oleh PT
Charoen Pokphand Indonesia, Tbk, dipakai pada penelitian ini. Penelitian menggunakan
Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 3 perlakuan yaitu EF0/kontrol, EF1 3% dan EF2 6%
ekstrak daun kelor terfermentasi pada air minum dan tiap-tiap perlakuan dilakukan sejumlah 6
kali pengulangan, sampai menghasilkan sebanyak 18 unit eksperimen. Variabel yang diamati
ialah: bobot potong, bobot karkas, persentase daging, persentase tulang, serta persentase kulit
juga lemak. Hasil penambahan ekstrak daun kelor terfermentasi 3% (EF1) dan 6% (EF2) pada
air minum secara signifikan (P<0,05) meningkatkan persentase daging masing-masing sebesar
7,04% dan 10,38% dibandingkan dengan EF0/kontrol. Perlakuan EF1 dan EF2 terjadi
penurunan yang signifikan (P<0,05) pada persentase kulit dan lemak masing-masing sebesar
21,17% dan 35,78%, daripada EF0/kontrol. Hasil penelitian pemberian ekstrak daun kelor
terfermentasi hingga 6% tidak berdampak signifikan (P>0,05) atas bobot potong, bobot karkas,
serta persentase tulang. Disimpulkan bahwa pemberian ekstrak daun kelor terfermentasi
melalui air minum 3% dan 6% menunjukkan peningkatan terhadap persentase daging dan
menurunkan persentase kulit-lemak, tetapi tidak mempengaruhi bobot potong, bobot karkas,
serta persentase tulang broiler. Disarankan agar menggunakan perlakuan 6% ekstrak daun kelor
terfermentasi melalui air minum terhadap komposisi fisik karkas broiler.
