Effect of Fermented Papaya Leaf Waste Supplementation on Growth Performance and Blood Lipids Profile of Female Bali Ducks

The research aims to know the effect of fermented papaya leaf waste supplementation in diets on growth performance and blood lipids profile of female bali ducks have been investigated. A complete randomezed design with three treatments and seven replications were used in this experiment. The treatments were: T0 (control, diet without fermented papaya leaf waste), T1 (diet contain 5% fermented papaya leaf waste) and T2 (diet contain 10% fermented papaya leaf waste). The variables observed were: feed and water consumptions, body weight gain, final body weight, Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), blood cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL and HDL. The results showed that feed consumption in treatment T1 and T2 were respectively 9,01% and 8,13% significantly (P<0.05) higher than treatment T0. Fermented papaya leaf waste at level of 5% and 10% not significantly (P>0.05) affect on increasing of water consumption, body weight gain, last body weight, and FCR value. Blood cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL were decreased but HDL increased along with the level of fermented papaya leaf waste. It can be concluded that fermented papaya leaf waste in the diets at the level of 5-10% could increased feed consumption and HDL, decreased blood triglyseride and LDL, but not affect on water consumption, body weight gain, last body weight, FCR and blood cholesterol of female bali ducks.
