Abstrak

The experiment is aim to find the digestibility and rumen fermentation product of etawah crossbreed goat with ± 16 kg of average body weight. The experiment use randomized block design (RBD) with four treatments and four replicates, so it has 16 units experiment. The four treatments are ration treatment A (40% elephant grass+20% rice bran+9.4% cassava+0.5% NaCl+0.1% vitamin mineral+30% gliricidia, 0% calliandra), B (40% elephant grass+20% rice bran+9.4% cassava+0.5% NaCl+0.1% vitamin mineral+20% gliricidia+10% calliandra), C (40% elephant grass+20% rice bran+9.4% cassava+0.5% NaCl+0.1% vitamin mineral + 10% gliricidia + 20% calliandra), dan D (40% elephant grass+20% rice bran+9.4% cassava+0.51% NaCl+0.1% vitamin mineral+0% gamal+30% calliandra). Variables observed are dry matter and nutrient digestibility, pH, NH3, and vollatyl fatty acid (VFA) of rumen liquid.Results of the experiment showed that treatment the dry matter and nutrient digestibility (organik matter, crude protein, ether extract, crude fiber, and energy bruto), pH (acidity), NH3, dan VFA of liquid rumen showed no significant different among all treatments. Key words: Calliandra calothyrsus, Gliricidia sepium, digestibility, product fermentation rumen, etawah crossbred goat
