Abstract
Abstract: The purpose of this research was to study substitution of concencrate with silage of cassava leaf (Manihot esculenta, Crantz) and gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium,Jacq.) mixtures on feed consumption and average daily gain of Goat. Materials used in this experiment were 20 Goat at early average body weight 23.85 kg ± 4.75 and coeficient of variance 19.94%. They were arranged in Randomaized Block Design with 5 treatments that were replicated 4 blok. Feed used were Corn Leaf (CL), Concentrate (C) and cassava leaf and gliricidia mixture Silage (S), with ratio corn leaf and concentrate were 60%:40% dry matter basis. Five dietary treatments applied were: RO: corn leaf 60% and concentrate 40% (Concentrate 100% and Silage 0%), K2: corn leaf 60% and concentrate 40% (Concentrate 75% and Silage 25%), K3: corn leaf 60% and concentrate 40% (Concentrate 50% and Silage 50%), K4: corn leaf 60% and concentrate 40% (Concentrate 25% and Silage 75%), K5: corn leaf 60% and C 40% (Concentrate 0% and Silage 100%). The variable’s observed in this research were dry matter intake (DMI), Organic Matter Intake (OMI), Crude Protein Intake (CPI), and Average Daily Gain (ADG).The results showed that the treatments not significant different (P>0.05) on Crude Protein Intake, but significant different (P<0.05) on Dry Matter Intake (DMI), Organic Matter Intake (OMI) and Average Daily Gain (ADG) of Goat. The highest and the lowest value of DMI (g/kg0,75/day) at K1 (68.73) and K4 (60.61); OMI (g/kg0,75/day): K1 (64.16) and K4 (56.37); CPI (g/kg0,75/day): K1 (11.11) and K4 (10.08). ADG (g/animal/day): K1 (168.90) and K5 (159.15). It was concluded that the substitution concencrate with silage cassava leaf and gliricidia mixture up to 100% could decrease feed intake and average daily gainof Goat. How ever, substitution concentrate on 25% silage of cassava leaf and gliricidia mixture showed same respon with treatment
