Abstract

Rice straw has great potential as a feed ingredient for cattle, especially when it is difficult to get forage ingredients in the dry season. To get good quality feed from rice straw, it is necessary to use a fermentation process using probiotics. The purpose of this study was to compare the quality of straw fermented using several types of probiotics and the length of the fermentation process. The method that will be used in achieving these goals is the experimental design method. The results showed that the type of probiotic had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the quality of fermented straw, where Bio Bali Tani (P2) showed the best results in crude protein content (CP), water content, and crude fiber. While the fermentation time at week 4 was significantly the best crude protein (CP) (P<0.05), but the 1-week fermentation time was significantly the lowest (P<0.05) the quality of fermented straw. The interaction between the types of probiotics and the length of time of fermentation only occurred at the highest crude fiber content at P2T2 (the interaction between the Bio Bali Tani probiotics with a fermentation time of 2 weeks), and the lowest at the interaction P1 with T4. From this research, it can be concluded that the type of probiotic and the longer the fermentation process affect the quality of fermented straw, where the probiotic Bio Bali Tani produces the best quality.
