Abstract
BACKFAT THICKNESS AND LOIN EYE AREA GROWER PIG USING PALM SUGAR (Arenga pinnata Merr) INTO DRINKING WATER. The research was conducted to determine the effect of the use of palm sugar in drinking water of pigs grower to the backfat thickness, and loin eye area. This study using 16 pigs. The research variables are drinking water consumption, backfat thickness and loin eye area.The research method is a randomized block design consisting of 4 weight group and 4 treatment of palm sugar levels in drinking water are 0, 2, 4 and 6%, followed by the use of LSD. Analysis of variance showed that the treatment is very significant effect on water consumption (P <0.01). Further test results BNT to the amount of consumption of drinking water shows that the R0 (0%) significantly different from R1 (2%), R2 (4%), R3 (6%) and R1(2%) was not significantly different from the use of palm sugar R2 (4%) and R3(8,91 L). Likewise, the treatment effect on loin eye area (P <0.05) with an average of 43.72 cm2, but had no effect on backfat thickness (P> 0.05) with the average of 2.79 cm even which in the first class category of carcass (<3.56 cm). The LSD shows that R0 (36,44 cm2) significantly different from the R1(47,17 cm2), R2 (44,33 cm2) and R3 (46,99 cm2) to the loin eye area while not significantly different from R1 (47,14 cm2) to R2 (44,33 cm2) and R3 (46,99 cm2). Based on the results of the study indicate that the use of palm sugar to 2% can increase the amount of water consumption is 7.78 liters/day and loin eye area is 43.72 cm2 but not for backfat thickness.
