Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of fermented corn pollen with urea on feed intake, nutrient digestibility and blood biochemical value in Brahman cattle. Using 4 beef cattle Brahman crossbred (range 1.6 year of age) body weight 174 ± 5 kg. All treatments were allocated into 4x4 replicated latin square design. Four feed treatments an urea level were 3, 4, 5 and 6 % respectively with corn pollen fermented. The results were shown that physical properties of corn pollen preservative are the same as color smell and texture, when consider from pH found that pH value average 4.3 that mean feed preservative good quality and fermented corn pollen were not effect on rumen pH, NH3-N, VFAs, BG, BUN and feed intake in term of g/kgW0.75/d not significant different (P>0.05). Moreover, feed cattle with treatment 1 and 2 (68.99 and 67.99 %DM) have DM digestibility higher than treatment 3 and 4 (66.57 and 66.97 %DM), while NH3-N was highest in cattle fed treatment 4 (6.58 mg%), and crude protein digestibility was highest in cattle fed treatment 1 (66.87 %) and 2 (66.78 %), fiber digestibility highest in cattle fed with treatment 4. Based on the present findings, it could be concluded that fermented corn pollen with urea can increase nutrient digestibility and body weight.
