ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to analyze the using red ginger and brotowali extract both single or in combined application in drinking water on the productivity and carcass quality in broiler. One hundred unsexed broilers were reared for 28 days. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications, each replication consist of 5 broilers placed randomly in each treatment. The treatment were P0 = giving drinking water without adding red ginger and brotowali extract (control), P1 = giving 1% red ginger extract in drinking water, P2 = giving 5.12 g/kg body weight of brotowali extract in drinking water, P3 = giving the red ginger and brotowali extract in drinking water. All broilers were observed for productivity variables including feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and mortality. Twenty samples were used to measure the observed variables in carcass quality including carcass percentage, abdominal fat, cholesterol, and cooking losses. The results showed that the addition of red ginger and brotowali extracts in drinking water both single or in combined application improved on body weight gain, conversion ratio, mortality, carcass percentage, abdominal fat, and cooking loss significantly (p<0.05). Administration of a combination of red ginger and brotowali extract in drinking water resulted in the best body weight gain (1100.28 g/head), Feed conversion ratio (1.37), carcass percentage (83.58%), abdominal fat percentage (0.56%) and cooking loss (8.56%).
