Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan tepung daun kemangi (Ocimum x citriodorum) pada pakan komersial terhadap performa pertumbuhan ayam broiler. Penelitian ini dilakukan di peternakan ayam broiler Janu Putra di Sayegan, Sleman, Yogyakarta. Bahan yang digunakan adalah 120 ekor ayam broiler yang dipelihara selama 31 hari. Rancangan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap dengan 4 perlakuan dan 3 ulangan (10 ekor ayam per ulangan): T0 (100% pakan komersial), T1 (95% pakan komersial + 5% tepung kemangi), T2 (90% pakan + 10% tepung kemangi), dan T3 (85% pakan + 15% tepung kemangi). Variabel yang diamati adalah konsumsi pakan, pertambahan berat badan, feed conversion ratio (FCR), dan income over feed cost (IOFC). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan 5% tepung daun kemangi tidak mempengaruhi konsumsi pakan, pertambahan berat badan, atau FCR. Di sisi lain, penambahan hingga 10?n 15% terlalu banyak dan menurunkan pertambahan berat badan serta meningkatkan FCR secara signifikan (P<0>

This research was aimed to determine the effect of adding basil leaf meal (Ocimum x citriodorum) to commercial feed on growth performance of broiler chickens. The study was conducted at Janu Putra broiler farm in Sayegan, Sleman, Yogyakarta. The material used was 120 broiler chickens raised for 31 days. The design used was a Completely Randomized Design with 4 treatments and 3 replications (10 chickens per replication): T0 (100% commercial feed), T1 (95% commercial feed + 5?sil meal), T2 (90?ed + 10?sil meal), and T3 (85?ed + 15?sil meal). The variables observed were feed consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and income over feed cost (IOFC). Results showed that the 5?dition of basil leaf meal did not affect feed consumption, body weight gain, or FCR. On the other hand, adding as much as 10% and 15% is too much and it decreased the weight gain and increase FCR significantly (P<0>
