Abstract

This research was done to investigate the effect of blend essential oil EOs1 with pine (Pinus merkusii; Jungh. and de Vriese) essential oil as the main component on feed nutrient digestibility and methane production. Blend essential oil consist of pine and eucalyptus (Melaleuca leucadendra (L.) essential oil in ratio 3:1 (EOs1). The EOs1 was added into the feed commonly used by the farmer, which consisted of king grass, rice bran, and pollard (60:20:20). The addition dosages of EOs1 was equal to 0, 100, and 200 µL/L of in vitro fermentation medium. In vitro gas production method using serum bottles was used to incubate feed material added EOs1 at 39°C for 24 h. At the end of incubation, gas produced was collected for methane analysis, and residual feeds were collected for further nutrients analysis, including dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and crude fiber. Nutrient data then used to calculate the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and crude fiber (DMD, OMD, CPD, and CFD), respectively. Data shows that all the treatments did not affect the methane production, DMD, CPD, and CFD, but increase OMD (p<0.05). It could be concluded that blend essential oil from pine and eucalyptus at ratio 3:1 potentially as a feed additive to improve nutrient metabolism but not for methane mitigation.
