- Abstract
The ration is an important factor in determining the success of a business in raising broilers. The provision of appropriate rations will have an impact on feed use and meat quality. This study aims to determine the effect of ration fortification on feed consumption, feed conversion and organoleptic properties of broiler chicken meat. The study was conducted for 28 days with five treatments and 8 replications with a sample size of 40 chickens. Chickens are kept in a litter-floored cage equipped with a feed and drinking area with continuous lighting. The variables observed were feed consumption, feed conversion and organoleptic properties of broiler chicken meat. Data analysis using ANOVA at a significant level of 5% and continued with the least significant difference test (LSD). The results showed that the provision of rations in all treatments resulted in a feed conversion value below 2. For feed consumption and organoleptic tests on broiler chicken meat there was also no significant difference. It was concluded that fortification of rations with crab shell chitosan provided better benefits than commercial rations.
