Keywords: duodenal fluid, gizzard liquid, in vitro digestibility, lamtoro leave Introduction Protein source feed is the feed that has the biggest share in the nutritional needs of Protein source feeds are feed ingredients that have a protein content of at least So far, to meet the protein needs of livestock, the main source of protein from animal feed is fish meal, due to its high protein content and easy to digest (Ikhfa, 2. The protein content of fish meal is 53. 62% (Sihite, 2. Fish meal is a raw material in the manufacture of feed. However, the availability and high price of fish meal are the main obstacles for farmers. This is because it has to be imported from abroad. In addition, the basic ingredients of poultry rations basically compete with human needs (Sulasmi et al. , 2. To overcome these problems, namely by utilizing non-conventional feed ingredients that are easily found around the community. Lamtoro or Leucaena leucocephala according to (Agbede, 2003 cited by Mandey et al. , 2. is one of the leaf Bantara Journal of Animal Science Vol. No. October 2021 p ISSN : 2656-9701 e ISSN : 2657-1587 flours that can be used as an alternative feed ingredient for poultry in the tropics. With its abundant availability and does not compete for its needs with humans and has no selling value so that it can minimize consumption costs for poultry. Lamtoro leaves according to (Putri. , 2012 cited by Ariyandra R et al. , 2. have a chemical composition of 97. 89% dry matter, 23. 83% crude protein, 31. 0509% nitrogenfree extract (BETN) and 23. 5877% crude fiber, fat 11. 68% and ash 7. 73%, while according to (Askar. , 1997 cited by Ariyandra et al. , 2. calcium and phosphorus were 90 - 3. 20% and 0. 15 - 0. 35% of dry matter. The crude protein content of lamtoro leaves is high enough so that it is good for animal feed. According to (Fadhilah. 2004 cited by Faradis. , 2. the crude protein requirement in the ration for broilers in the starter period is 24% and for the finisher period is 21%. Mandey et al. explained that the results of his research in the use of lamtoro leaves up to 20% can replace some of the basic feed, giving the same response as the basic feed as a control. Although mimosin is a toxic factor that is often mentioned as an obstacle to intensive use, lamtoro has long been used in ruminants and monogastric Variations in the resulting performance are dependent on the level and nutritional value of the lamtoro used. Lamtoro leaf feed material is expected to be a resource that is available around the clock for broiler feed. Based on the description above, the authors wish to conduct in vitro digestibility research of lamtoro leaves regarding the digestibility coefficient of dry matter, organic matter and dissolved protein in poultry.

The data obtained were then analyzed using ANOVA (Analysis of varianc. Furthermore, the DMRT (Duncan Multiple Range Tes. test was carried out to determine the differences between treatments. Then to calculate the results of the analysis with the help of SPSS software or the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (Mulyono, 2. Bantara Journal of Animal Science Vol. No. October 2021 p ISSN : 2656-9701 e ISSN : 2657-1587 Results and Discussion Dry Matter Digestibility Coefficient (DMDC) Dry matter digestibility was measured to determine the amount of food substances absorbed by the body which was carried out through analysis of the amount of dry matter, both in the ration and in the feces (Ranjhan. , 1980 cited by Boangmanalu et al. , 2. The DMDC value is influenced by the level of proportion of feed ingredients in the ration, chemical composition, and protein level (Anggorodi, 1994 cited by Suardin et al. , 2. The results of the study on the effect of treatment of chicken digestive juices with lamtoro leaf flour on DMDC are presented in Table 1. Table 1. Dry matter digestibility coefficient (DMDC) of lamtoro leaf flour in treatment of chicken digestive juices. Treatment Replication P0 (%) P1 (%) P2 (%) P3 (%) Averages Note : * in the treatment column shows a significant difference (P<0. P0 = control . P1 = Gizzard fluid. P2 = Duodenal fluid. P3 = Mixture of gizzard and duodenal fluid. Based on the results of the analysis of variance Table 1 shows that the digestive juices of chickens with lamtoro leaf flour have a significant effect on DMDC. The results from Table 1 are that the difference in treatment of lamtoro leaf flour using gizzard liquid and a mixture of gizzard liquid with duodenum can increase the DMDC value. The increase in the average DMDC between P0 and P1 is 9. The DMDC average could be higher because gizzard liquid contains enzymes that break down This is in accordance with the opinion of Jull. , . cited by Marlina. , . that gizzard functions to destroy food granules and mix them with pepsin and HCL where the protein has begun to be digested. In addition, the use of the duodenum on P2 could not increase the DMDC value compared to the control or P0 due to the ineffective digestive process. The results of this study are lower than that of Kurniawan's . study that the measurement of DMDC of lamtoro leaf flour with different treatments using the enzymes pepsin and pancreatin can increase by an average of up to 60. This may be due to the effectiveness of the enzyme pepsin and pancreatin itself. From this research on DMDC measurements, it can be concluded that the use of gizzard liquid has been able to be used in measuring the in vitro digestibility of lamtoro Organic Matter Digestibility Coefficient (OMDC) The value of the digestibility coefficient of organic matter was obtained through the difference in the initial organic matter content before and after incubation, proportional to the organic matter content before the incubation (Blummel et al. , 1997 cited by Ningsi. Factors that affect OMDC are crude fiber and mineral content of feed ingredients Bantara Journal of Animal Science Vol. No. October 2021 p ISSN : 2656-9701 e ISSN : 2657-1587 (Ismail, 2012 cited by Ningsi. , 2. The results of the study on the effect of treatment of chicken digestive juices with lamtoro leaf flour on OMDC are presented in Table 2. Table 2. Organic matter digestibility coefficient (OMDC) of lamtoro leaf flour in treatment of chicken digestive juices. Treatment Replication P0 (%) P1 (%) P2 (%) P3 (%) Averages Note: ab in the treatment column shows a significant difference (P<0. P0 = control . P1 = Gizzard fluid. P2 = Duodenal fluid. P3 = Mixture of gizzard and duodenal fluid Based on the results of the analysis of variance. Table 2 shows that the digestive juices of chicken with lamtoro leaf flour have a significant effect on OMDC. The results from Table 2 are that the difference in treatment of lamtoro leaf flour using gizzard liquid and a mixture of gizzard liquid with duodenum can increase the OMDC value. The increase in the average OMDC between P0 and P1 is 8. The OMDC average could be higher because gizzard liquid contains enzymes that can break down nutrients. Table 2 shows that the OMDC analysis has a mean of 31. With a standard deviation of below 10%, it means that the feed ingredients have good quality. In addition, the OMDC value of lamtoro leaf flour was obtained with an average of 31. 115%, which value was not much different from the average DMDC result of 24. According to Kurniawan . the measurement of OMDC of lamtoro leaf flour using the enzymes pepsin and pancreatin can increase by an average of up to 60. This study had a higher mean than this study, this could be due to the effectiveness of the pepsin and pancreatin enzymes themselves. From this study it can be concluded that the use of gizzard liquid can increase the OMDC value so that it can be used in measuring the in vitro digestibility of lamtoro Dissolved Protein Digestibility Coefficient (DPDC) Dissolved protein is the percentage of total protein contained in food ingredients that can be extracted or dissolved in water under certain conditions (Andarwulan et al. 2011 cited by Marwah. , 2. DPDC is a measurement of an oligopeptide or amino acids that are easily absorbed by the digestive system (Purwoko. , 2006 cited by Marwah. The results of the study on the effect of treatment of chicken digestive juices with lamtoro leaf flour on DPDC are presented in Table 3. Bantara Journal of Animal Science Vol. No. October 2021 p ISSN : 2656-9701 e ISSN : 2657-1587 Table 3. Dissolved protein digestibility coefficient (DPDC) of lamtoro leaf flour in treatment of chicken digestive juices. Treatment Replication P0 (%) P1 (%) P2 (%) P3 (%) Averages Note: abc in the treatment column shows a significant difference (P<0. P0 = control . P1 = Gizzard fluid. P2 = Duodenal fluid. P3 = Mixture of gizzard and duodenal fluid. The results from Table 3 are the differences in treatment of lamtoro leaf flour using gizzard liquid and a mixture of gizzard liquid with duodenum can increase the DPDC The increase in the average DPDC value between P0 and P1 is 13. The DPDC average could be higher because gizzard liquid contains enzymes that can break down nutrients. From this study it can be concluded that the use of gizzard liquid can increase the DPDC value so that it can be used in measuring the in vitro digestibility of lamtoro leaves. Conclusion Based on the results and discussion above, this study can be concluded that the use of gizzard liquid is more effective in increasing the in vitro digestibility of lamtoro leaves. In the digestibility measurement, the dry matter digestibility coefficient (DMDC) was 089%, the organic matter digestibility coefficient (OMDC) was 36. 313% and the dissolved protein digestibility coefficient (DPDC) was 53.
