Research that aimed to examine the effect of jamu makarens in the rations on performance and intestines pathogenic microbes has been carried out for 35 days using 80 head broilers. A completly randomized design with four treatments and four replications was used in this study. The treatments were: Commercial rations without jamu makarens (A), Commercial rations + 2% jamu makarens (B), Commercial rations + 4% jamu makarens (C), and Commercial rations + 6% jamu makarens (D). The results showed that feed and water consumptions, feed convertion ratio (FCR) and pathogenic microbes in the intestines of broilers fed 2-6% jamu makarens lower than control (p<0.05), but final body weight and body weight gain not significantly affect. It was concluded that the administration of 2-6% jamu makarens in the rations could reduce feed consumption, drinking water, FCR and pathogenic bacteria in the intestines, but did not effect on final body weight and body weight gain.
