Summary Assigment Kuliah TPP

At the TPP meeting explained about Biological Processing Technology and its
effect on nutrient quality of feedstuff: ensilage. On the slide explained there are 3
biological treatments commonly used in feeds. First an aerobic fermentation to
prolonge storage of feed, second aerob fermentation to decrease fiber, and third as
FA: enzymes, probiotics. An aerobic fermentation or ensilage is the process of
making silage. Silage fermentation begins when oxygen has been used up by the plant
cells used. The main ingredient in making silage is green and can be mixed with other
concentrates but with a small proportion. Consideration of the use of an aerobic
fermentation technology that is practical and economical for high water content
ingredients (does not require time, energy and costs for drying), environmentally
friendly considering the products produced smell nice and do not contain pathogenic
bacteria, the resulting products are durable (durable), safe for consumption because it
is free of pathogenic microorganisms, the failure rate is low.
Silage and hay are preserved or stored feed given to the cattle during a
shortage of green forage. Silage is very nutritious and easy to digest feed for the
cattle. Silage have a 4 phase is respiration, early fermentation, lactid acid
fermentation, stabilization. Things to remember is, good silage should be of light
greenish or greenish brown colour. It should have a nice smell like an acidic in taste
and must not contain mold. If your silage turns out black, this means it is of poor
quality. Pour fermented silage has bad taste and slimy soft texture.
Feedstuffs fact in the field its not good in Indonesia. The facts are on the
production and harvesting, transportation, feed storage, feed processing, and feed
strategy. Some of the facts mentioned affect the making of silage, and in Indonesia
the facts about it are still traditional. Traditional in the sense that it is not yet as
developed as in developed countries. Measurement of feed quality can be seen from
the outcomes produced in livestock such as weight gain and milk production.
Measurement of body weight can be seen from the Body Condition Score. Incoming
food or income from feed affects calving intervals and impacts on milk production
produced. This feedstuff can be a solution of uneven feed available when the rainy
season is available a lot and when the dry season is not available.
