PENGARUH PEMBERIAN TEPUNG BONGGOL PISANG (Musa sp.) TERHADAP LAJU PERTUMBUHAN, KADAR KOLESTEROL TOTAL, HDL, DAN LDL DARAH PADA AYAM BROILER

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the addition of flour banana tuber in commercial feed on growth rate, total cholesterol, HDL and LDL in the blood of broiler chickens. The method of research used Completely Randomizad Design Nested Classification using experimental animals broiler strain CP 707 as much as 50 animals were divided into five types of feed treatment, namely K commercial feed, P1 commercial feed mixed flour banana tuber 10 %, P2 commercial feed mixed flour banana tuber 20 %, P3 commercial feed mixed flour banana tuber 30 %, P4 commercial feed mixed flour banana tuber 40 %. Then observed feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion, and total cholesterol, HDL, and LDL blood of broiler chickens. The data obtained is then processed by analysis of variance using SPSS and Microsoft Excel 2007. Conclusions obtained from this study, administration of flour banana tuber in commercial diets for broilers and increase the average feed consumption was not affected significantly ( P > 0.05 ) on growth rate during the maintenance as well as reduce the level of feed efficiency ( FCR ) although this effect was not significant ( P > 0.05 ). Banana tuber flour significantly ( P < 0.05 ) towards decreased levels of HDL in the blood of broiler chickens, but no significant effect ( P > 0.05) reduction in LDL and total cholesterol levels in the blood of broiler chickens. Flour banana tuber can be a mixture of alternative feed on commercial feed for broiler chickens with the ideal percentage between 20 % to 30 % which will result in FCR values between 1.70 ± 0.11 to 1.74 ± 0.07 with and cholesterol total blood between 89.3 ± 11.7 mg / dl to 89.5 ± 6.1 mg / dl
