Abstract

With the increasing public awareness of Indonesian in healthy nutrition, it is resulted in demand for animal products that are healthy and free of antibiotic residues also increased. One natural feed additive used as a substitute for antibiotic synthesis is Curcuma Roxb xanthorriza, which is often used by humans to increase of appetite and cure various diseases. Balitro (2008) states that ginger meal contains: 94.14% dry material, 53% starch, 9.04% fat, 9.88% protein, 2.26% fiber, essential oil 5.97%, 2% curcumin and 1.58 % xanthorizol. This content can work to improve kidney and anti-inflammatory. Another benefit of this plant rhizomes increase of appetite, anti-cholesterol, anti-inflammatory, anemia, anti-oxidants, cancer prevention, and anti-microba. The aim of this research is to determine the influence of the ginger in broiler diets to the performance, the percentage of the carcass, and abdominal fat. A Completely Randomized Design was used to analyze the data. Two hundred DOC were divided into 4 treatment groups with 5 replications and 10 DOC in each replication. Four treatment diets were control diet with 0% of curcuma meal (R0); 1% of curcuma meal (R1), 2% of curcuma meal (R2), and 3% of curcuma meal (R3). The parameters observed were feed consumption, gain of body weight, feed conversion, percentage of carcass, abdominal fat and ability as a antibody titre against ND. The results of research showed that feed consumption, gain of body weight, carcass percentage, and abdominal fat of broilers were significantly different (p <0.05) for all treatment diets. Feed conversion and an antibody titres against ND did not show significantly different for all treatments. This research shows that 1% of meal curcuma in diet gave the best results of the chicken's broiler compared with other dietary treatment, Because the gain of body weight and percentage of the carcass are a higher and feed conversion is low but has not been able to reduce fat abdomen. In fact, the level of 2% and 3% of curcuma meal in diet can reduce fat in the abdomen.
