摘要

The study aimed to know the utilization of fermented water hyacinth in the diet on broiler lipid content. Broiler chickens strain Lohmann at 14 days old amount 144 with 72 males and 72 females average weight 355,91 ± 16,95 g, 24 cages with each unit placed 6 broiler chickens. The diet formulated from corn, soybean meal, rice brand, pollard, poultry meat meal, meat bone meal, fish meal, fermented water hyacinth.

The results showed that treatment with water hyacinth fermented in the diet give effect (P<0,05) to body weight but this did not effect (P>0,05) to percentage of abdominal and meat fat. The conclusion was treatment with water hyacinth fermented until 15% in diet had no effect on lipid content in broiler chickens.
