ANALYSIS OF FEED MANAGEMENT EFFICIENCY IN CLOSED HOUSE SYSTEM BROILER FARM IN ROFAN FARM, BLITAR
Abstract
Feed costs have a proportion of 70% in the
livestock business. In addition, feed prices are volatile
and tend to rise. This has an impact on farmers to carry
out efficient feed management. Feed efficiency can be
measured based on the feed conversion ratio (FCR). The
lower the FCR ratio, the more efficient the feed used. In
closed house farms, Rofan Farm has a fairly low FCR
ratio. This is one of the backgrounds that needs to be
studied for the cause of feed efficiency. This study aims
to analyze the efficiency of feed management in closed
house broiler farms in Rifan Farm, Blitar. The research
used in this study uses a qualitative approach with a case
study method. The data collection technique uses
observation, interviews and documentation. Meanwhile,
the data analysis technique uses descriptive statistics. The
results of the study show that the average ratio of FCR is
1.45. One of the strategies is that farmers use turmeric as
a feed additive in the form of flour mixed into feed. The
administration of turmeric is given at the age of 1, 10, 11,
12, 19, 20, 21, 30, 31, and 32 days of chickens. The final
body weight of a 36-day-old broiler reaches 2.5 kg.
