Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of providing burahol fruit flour (Stelechocarpus burahol) in feed on the blood biochemical profile and performance of Cihateup Ducks raised without access to water. Ducks were raised in the Jaya Organik livestock group pen, Ciseupang, Kasomalang, Subang from 2 to 5 months of age. This study used an unpaired T-test. The number of Cihateup Ducks raised was 300 with 150 ducks per treatment. Ducks were randomly assigned to two treatments, namely treatment P0 in the form of rations provided without burahol fruit flour and treatment P1 in the form of rations provided with feed additives burahol fruit flour combined with flavonoids, methionine, linoleic acid and allicin from garlic essential oil as much as 15 g/kg ration. The research data showed that the administration of burahol fruit flour had a significant difference (P<0.05) on the biochemical profile of Cihateup ducks, namely uric acid 19.67 mg/dL, urea 2.19 mg/dL, albumin 2.75 mg/dL, total protein 8.23 mg/dL, glucose 217.18 mg/dL, triglycerides 101.89%, RNA 7.05%, and MDA 1.06 nm/M-1cm-1, as well as the performance of Cihateup ducks, namely an average egg production of 88.97%, an average egg weight of 84.92%, an average shell thickness of 3.15 mm, and an average hatchability of Cihateup ducks of 88.66%. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2026.
