Bio-Fermentation Improved the Nutritional Values of Chromolena odorata Utilization as Bali Cattle Feed Source
Abstract: Objectives: The aims of this study were to analyze the effects of bio-fermentation of C/N30 ratio using different soluble rates of carbohydrate sources on in vitro physical quality, nutrition, anti-nutrient, digestibility, NH3 and VFA rumen fluid of Chromolaena odorata silage. Method: A Completely Randomized Design with 3 treatments and 6 replications was used in this study. The treatments were: (CO30_GC): CO with C/N30 of liquid palm sugar + 10 % rumen content; (CO30_PTK): CO with C/N30 of palm pith flour or putak flour (Corypha gebanga) + 10 % rumen content; (CO30_JP): CO with C/N30 of rice straw flour + 10 % rumen content. Providing liquid palm sugar as carbohydrate source increased the physical quality of Chromolaena odorata silage (color, odor, pH texture, presence of fungus) compared with the other treatments. Results: There were an increased (P
