ABSTRACT
To maximize the productivity and efficiency of broiler farming, one way is to add additional feed or probiotics as additional feed. The aim of this research is to analyse performance of broiler chickens in open house cages with additional probiotic nutrition. The research method used is experimental based with a post-test design only for the control group. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD). 30 broiler chickens were randomly assigned to three treatments (P0, P1, and P2) at least six times in each group. The results obtained in this research are giving lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with a concentration of 108 CFU/ml to broiler chickens infected with Escherichia coli, research that has been carried out shows that this shows a better performance index. By adding lactic acid bacteria at a concentration of 108 CFU/ml on a farm scale of 2000 heads per period, the contribution margin can cover all fixed costs, so the road remains viable.
