Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of dietary supplementation with protected lemuru fish oil (Sardinella longiceps) on nutrient intake and the average daily gain of thin-tailed sheep. This study was conducted from September to October 2020 in Dumbira Farm, Kalasan, Yogyakarta. Twelve sheep were divided into three treatment groups with 4 replicates each and fed total mixed ration (TMR) supplemented with 0% (T0), 5% (T1), and 10% (T2) protected lemuru fish oil. Data collected were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, and differences between treatment means were further analyzed using Duncan’s multiple range test. The findings showed that 5% and 10% protected lemuru fish oil supplementation in the TMR feed had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the intake of crude fiber and crude fat, but daily weight gain and the intake of dry matter, organic matter, and crude protein were not affected by treatments. However, the highest average daily gain was observed in the 5% supplementation group.
