ABSTRACT


Background and Objective The utilization of by-products of palm oil industry consists of palm kernel cake PKC, palm oil sludge POS as feed is limited duo to their high lignin content. Probiotics are able to create a balance of microbes in the digestive tract thus creating optimum conditions for digestion of fibrous feed and improving feed conversion efficiency, which in turn can increase the production of livestock. The objective of this research was to determine the level of replacement concentrate ration of Etawa Crossbred dairy goat ECDG with concentrates formulated by various of by product of palm oil industry palm kernel cake PKC and palm oil sludge POS that have supplemented with probiotics. Materials and Methods Research was conducted using completely randomized design CRD with 5 treatments concentrate ration replacement and 4 replications Treatment A about 100 concentrate standard CS and 0 concentrate of by products of palm oil industry CBPO, B 75 CS25 CBPO, C 50 CS50 CBPO, D 25 CS75 CBPO and Treatment E. 0 CS100 CBPO. Parameters measured were quality of milk, ie protein, fat, solid non fat SNF, density and mineral Ca and P. Results The results showed that protein, fat, SNF, density and mineral Ca and P was not significant p0.05. Conclusion From the overall parameters it can be concluded that the use of a byproduct of palm oil industry until 100 for ECDG ration does not affect the quality of milk in terms of protein, fat, minerals and density of milk.
