Utilisasi Silase Jerami Jagung dengan Suplementasi Kulit Matoa terhadap Penurunan Produksi Gas Metan secara In Vitro

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh jerami jagung dengan suplementasi kulit matoa terhadap fermentabilitas dan kecernaan rumen secara in vitro. Penelitian menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan 4 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan. Perlakuan meliputi P0 = 1 kg jerami jagung; P1 = 1 kg jerami jagung + 20% kulit matoa; P2 = 1 kg jerami jagung + 30% kulit matoa; P3 = 1 kg jerami jagung + 40% kulit matoa. Parameter yang diamati yaitu analisis proksimat, gas total, gas metana, pH rumen, volatile fatty acid (VFA), NH3, sintesis protein mikrobial (SPM), kecernaan bahan kering (KcBK), kecernaan bahan organik (KcBO), total bakteri, dan populasi protozoa. Data dianalisis menggunakan analysis of variance (ANOVA) dan diuji lanjut dengan Uji Duncan menggunakan program SPSS 25. Perlakuan tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap pH rumen, kadar NH3, SPM, KcBK, dan KcBO. Namun, berpengaruh nyata pada total produksi gas total, penurunan gas metan, dan konsentrasi VFA. Silase jerami jagung dengan suplementasi kulit matoa efektif menurunkan gas metan, tetapi tidak mempengaruhi fermentabilitas dan kecernaan rumen.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of corn straw silage with matoa peel supplementation on fermentability and rumen digestibility in vitro. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments consisted of P0 = 1 kg corn straw; P1 = 1 kg corn straw + 20% matoa peel; P2 = 1 kg corn straw + 30% matoa peel; P3 = 1 kg corn straw + 40% matoa peel. Parameters observed were proximate analysis, gas production, methane gas, rumen pH, volatile fatty acid (VFA), NH3, microbial protein synthesis (MPS), dry matter digestibility (DMD), organic matter digestibility (OMD), total bacteria, and protozoa population. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and further tested with Duncan's test using the SPSS 25 program. The treatment had no significant effect on rumen pH, NH3 levels, MPS, DMD, and OMD. However, the treatment had a significant effect on total gas production, methane gas reduction, and VFA concentration. Corn straw silage with matoa peel reduced methane gas but it did not affect on rumen fermentability and digestibility.
