Analysis of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in fermented complete feed with different fortification materials and microorganism sources

This study aims to analyze: 1) The content of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin of fermented complete feed made from sorghum with the use of various fortification materials and sources of microorganisms. 2) The interaction of the use of fortification materials and sources of microorganisms on the content value of fermented complete feed made from sorghum. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) 3x2 factorial pattern consisting of factor A fortification materials (Indigofera leaves and moringa leaves) and factor B sources of microorganisms (mole of rumen contents, mole of cow feces and MA-11) so that there are 6 treatment combinations and repeated 3 times. The variables studied are the content of Cellulose, Hemicellulose and Lignin. The results showed that the fortification materials did not significantly affect the content of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, while the source of microorganisms had a very significant effect on the content of cellulose and lignin, except for the content of hemicellulose. There was no significant interaction between the two factors on all complete feeds. The resulting fermented complete feed was of excellent quality, with Indigofera leaves superior to moringa leaves and MA-11 more effective than other microbial sources. The best combination was A1B3 (Indigofera with MA-11), which reduced the fiber content of the complete feed.
