摘要
Effect of molasses addition to complete calf starter (CCS) and the following pellet processing was evaluated with 12 Holstein-Friesian (HF) calves (7-14 d old with 42±5.5kg average BW), with 6 calves (replicate) per treatment. The CCS was formulated with 65% concentrate calf starter and 35% local corn fodder. On the CCS, molasses was added either 5% (M5) or 10% (M10), then the mixture was pelleted and fed to the calves for 7 weeks. Molasses addition, regardless of addition level, improved (p<0.05) both the durability and hardness of the pellet which contains 35% of high fibrous local corn fodder. Upon feeding to calves, the feed intake and daily gain were numerically higher with 5% molasses addition compared to 10% molasses addition. Blood VFA level was remarkably higher (p<0.01) in calves fed M10 than calves fed M5. There was no difference (p>0.05) in blood glucose level between M5 and M10. Length and number of papillae were not different (p>0.05) by the addition levels of molasses. However, there was one exception in number of papillae at caudo-dorsal sac which were higher (p<0.05) number in M5 than M10 calves. Considering the quality of CCS pellet, calf performance and rumen development, there was no additional benefit of 10% molasses addition compared to 5%. From the results of this study, 5% molasses addition could be recommended for local farmer when they utilize local corn fodder to make CCS for HF calves in Indonesia.

用12头荷斯坦-弗里斯兰（HF）犊牛（7-14天，平均体重为42±5.5kg）评估了将糖蜜添加到完整小牛犊起子（CCS）和随后的颗粒加工中的效果，每处理6只小牛（重复） 。 CCS由65％的浓缩小牛起子和35％的本地玉米饲料配制而成。在CCS上，添加5％（M5）或10％（M10）的糖蜜，然后将混合物制成颗粒并喂入小牛7周。糖蜜的添加，无论添加量如何，均提高了（p <0.05）颗粒的耐久性和硬度，该颗粒包含35％的高纤维本地玉米饲料。饲喂犊牛时，添加10％糖蜜比添加10％糖蜜的采食量和日增重高。喂食M10的小牛的血液VFA水平显着高于喂食M5的小牛（p <0.01）。 M5和M10之间的血糖水平无差异（p> 0.05）。糖蜜的添加量对乳头的长度和数量没有影响（p> 0.05）。但是，假性背囊的乳头数量例外，其中M5的乳头数量高于M10的（p <0.05）。考虑到CCS颗粒的质量，小牛的性能和瘤胃发育，与5％相比，添加10％糖蜜没有额外的好处。根据这项研究的结果，当当地农民利用本地玉米饲料为印度尼西亚的HF犊牛制作CCS时，可建议向当地农民添加5％的糖蜜。
