Utilizing local microorganisms with different dosages and duration of fermentation towards digestibility and rumen activity of oil palm frond in vitro

Abstract

This research entitles “utilizing local microorganism with different dosages and duration of fermentation process towards digestibility and rumen activity of oil palm frond in vitro” has been done with purpose to know the effect of fermented feed processing technology towards digestion value and fermentability in vitro. The design used in the research was the factorial completely randomized design. The research results showed that the utilization of MOL with can significantly (P0.05) on OMD, and VFA total, N ammonia of rumen fluid in vitro. Application of MOL at the level 0,6% with duration of fermentation 7 days show the efficient treatment to increase quality of oil palm frond.
