| dc.description.abstract | TMR Feed (Total Mixed Ratio) is a special feed for
ruminants prepared from forage and concentrate feed with a ratio that
can meet the nutritional mass needs of dry matter, crude protein or
TDN (Total Digestible Nutrient). This study aims to analyze the effect
of using concentrate in TMR feed on feed efficiency and IOFC (Income
Over Feed Cost) in Frish Holland (PFH) dairy cattle in the lactation
phase. The materials used were 9 lactating dairy cettles producing 10
liters of milk per day, factory concentrate and fresh corn forage, dairy
machine, Lakctoscan. This study used an experimental method,
Completely Randomized Design including 3 treatment feeds using
concentrate in TMR feed, T1=20% concentrate, T2 = 30% concentrate
from T3 = 40% concentrate of TMR feed which was repeated 3 times.
Each treatment, fresh corn forage was given ad libitum, which was
given after the concentrate was administered twice a day. Variables
observed were feed conversion, economic value of feed and IOFC
(Income Over Feed Cost). Furthermore, the data obtained were
analyzed for variance and the Duncan test to determine the differences
between treatments. The results showed that the increasing use of
concentrate in TMR feed significantly increased the significantly feed
conversion decreased (9.85 to 8.69), Economic Value of Feed
decreased from IDR 22538-21412 and IOFC revenue (RP/head) for
20 days increased from IDR. 995.107.00–163.426.00. The conclusion
is that the greater the level of use of concentrate in TMR feed for dairy
cattle was increased IOFC and the cost of feed for the production of 1
kg of milk DM (dry matter). Furthermore, it is recommended to use
40% concentrate of TMR feed in DM needs to generate IOFC and
lower feed costs. | en_US |
