Weight loss in slaughter weight and Primal Cut (PC) of Bali pigs in additional feed base from fermented broiler farm by-products

Abstract

The research aims to determine the loss of slaughter weight and primal cuts (PC) in Bali pigs to given feed based on fermented broiler farm by-products (BBP). The research used a completely randomized design, with three treatments and five replications (3 x 5). The treatment is, A: Ration with 0% broiler farm by-product, B: 12% broiler farm by-product, C: 24% broiler farm by-product. Using 15 Bali pigs in the grower phase with an average weight of 13.30±0.79 kg. Research variables: Loss of slaughter weight and primal cuts (Boston butt, picnic shoulder, loin, bacon belly, and ham). The results of the research: Addition of 24% BBP (C) to the feed caused a reduction in slaughter weight of up to 4.7%, carcass weight was 4.8% lower than control (A) (p
