ABSTRACT

The purposes were to analyze the effect of Curcuma xanthorriza Roxb. as a feed additive towards super kampong chicken (Indonesian native/local chicken - Gallus gallus domesticus Linnaeus, 1758) and to determine the most effective level of curcuma xanthorriza for the chicken. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used in this research through experimental design. Treatments in this research covered T0: Curcuma xanthorriza as feed additive 0.0 % (parameter), T1: Curcuma xanthorriza as feed additive 0.33 %, T2: Curcuma xanthorriza as feed additive 0.67 %, and T3: Curcuma xanthorriza as feed additive 1.00 % with five replications. The result indicated that Curcuma xanthorriza as a feed additive had a significant effect on income over feed cost and carcass weight percentage, but it had no significant effect on abdominal fat weight percentage, feed efficiency, meat dry matter content, meat organic matter, meat ash content, dry matter, and organic matter digestibility in super kampong chicken. The best treatment was curcuma by 1 % as feed additive due to the increase of carcass weight percentage by the value was 69.60 %.
