PENGARUH PEMBERIAN EKSTRAK UMBI BIT (Beta vulgaris L.) TERHADAP GAMBARAN DARAH AYAM BROILER STRES TRANSPORTASI

Abstrak

Transportation or transportation of animals from one place to another can cause stress or stress. To reduce stress, animals must have high stamina or endurance. This research was conducted to obtain an overview of chicken blood under transportation stress by administering beetroot extract and to determine the optimal concentration of beetroot extract in stabilizing chicken blood when experiencing transportation stress. This study used a randomized block design consisting of 0.1 g/W, 0.5g/W, 1g/W and placebo. The experimental animals used were 15 broiler chickens weighing between 1.5 – 1.7 kg with a CV value of 5.31%. The results of this study indicate that beetroot extract can stabilize the value of hematocrit, hemoglobin and white blood granules in broiler chickens subjected to transportation stress and the concentration of beetroot extract at a concentration of 0.1 g/BW to stabilize the value of hematocrit, hemoglobin and white blood count in broiler chickens. broiler chickens under transportation stress.
