PRODUCTION AND PROTEIN CONTENT OF MAGGOT (HERMETIA ILLUCENS)USING DIFFERENT GROWTH MEDIA. Mandar bird (Gallirallus) called “weris” bird in North Sulawesi, had been generally known in Minahasa and Kotamobagu areas. Bird in the family of the Rallidae have a small to medium body size. The purpose of this study was to obtain the morphometric characteristics of weris birds in the areas of Kotamobagu. The expected benefit of this study was to provide information about morphometric charaeteristics of weris birds, which is useful in the breeding process. Observation was focused on general habitat of this bird closed to river swamp or lake. Weris birds usually breed in thrive densely vegetation areas. Identification of the characteristics was following the morphometric characteristics of some species of weris bird found around areas Kotamobagu. Based on the results of study conducted in the areas of Kotamobagu North Sulawesi, it was found that there were two different types of weris birds consisted of the species of Gallirallus philippensis and species of Gallirallus torquatus . These two types of birds have different characteristics that can be seen from the outside or exterior appearance, and also can be seen from the size. The species of Gallirallus philippensis has smaller body size compared to species of Gallirallus torquatus. Keywords : Weris bird, Morfomertric characteristics. Kotamobagu Areas.

THE EFFECT OF PARTLY SUBSTITUTION OF DIET WITH WHITE CHINESE CABBAGE (Brasscia pekinensia L) WASTE PRODUCT ON BIOLOGICAL PERFORMANCE OF BROILER CHICKEN The present study was conducted to characterize the effect of white Chinese cabbage (Brasscia pekinensia L) waste product as an alternative feed source for broiler chicken.  The experiment was conducted at Faculty of Animal Husbandry’s experimetal station for 21 days using 60 MB-202 broiler chicken. The experiment was started at 21 days of age and terminated at 42 days of age. Birds were allocated to 20 experimental battery cage, 3 birds in each cage. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications was employed to analyze experimental data. Treatment diets were formulated as follow: R0 = 100% basal diet and 0% white Chinese cabbage waste product; R1 = 95% basal diet and 5% white Chinese cabbage waste product; R2 = 90% basal diet and 10% white Chinese cabbage waste product; R3 = 85% basal diet and 15% white Chinese cabbage waste product; and R4 = 80% basal diet and 20% white Chinese cabbage waste product. Parameters measured were: 1) daily feed consumption; 2) daily gain; and 3) feed conversion ratio (FCR). The results of the study during which feed consumption (138,09-141,57g), weight gain (64,95-68,53g), and feed conversion (2,07-2,12). The results showed that partly substitution (up to 20%) of basal diet with white Chinese cabbage waste product gave non significant (P > 0.05) effect on feed consumption, daily gain, and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of broiler chicken. It can be concluded that white Chinese cabbage waste product can be used up to 20% feed gives good results on broiler performance. Key Words: Substitution, white Chinese cabbage waste product, broiler performance

ABSTRAKTeknologi pengolahan pakan diperlukan untuk mempertahankan ketersediaan pakan, meningkatkan kualitas pakan dan mengoptimumkan produksi ternak ruminansia. Teknologi pengolahan silase sudah lama dikenal. namun dengan perkembangan riset maka pengolahan silase dengan penggunaan berbagai metode telah banyak dikembangkan. Limbah organik pasar seperti limbah sayur-sayuran dapat menggantikan hijauan dikala musim kering. Tulisan ini merangkum sejumlah penelitian mengenai pemanfaatan teknologi silase dan produknya sebagai pakan ternak ruminansia yang telah dipublikasi di jumal atau prosiding lokal dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. Mikroorganisme digunakan untuk pembuatan silase terutama untuk meningkatkan kualitas limbah organik pasar dan fungsi rumen. Teknologi silase ini akan memberikan prospek yang semakin baik untuk meningkatkan produktivitas ternak ruminansia akan tetapi harus terus ditunjang oleh penelitian yang lebih spesifik dan mendalam tentang pemanfaatan silase limbah organik pasar pada ternak ruminansia. Kata kunci: teknologi silase, mikroorganisme, limbah pasar, ruminansia PENDAHULUANLimbah organik pasar seperti limbah sayursayuran dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai pakan ternak ruminasia, karena ketersediaanya melimpah dan memiliki nilai ekonomis karena harganya murah dan tidak bersaing dengan kebutuhan manusia, selain itu dapat mengurangi pencemaran lingkungan Kelemahan limbah ini mudah busuk dan voluminus (bulky) sehingga perlu teknologi pengolahan pakan untuk bahan menjadi awet, mudah disimpan. Teknologi silase dapat menjawab permasalahan tersebut. Berdasarkan kajian pustaka metode-metode penambahan aditif seperti mikrooraganisme dan karbohidarat dapat meningkatkan kualitas silase limbah pasar.Pemberian silase baik secara tunggal maupun dalam ransum komplit dapat meningkatkan performans ternak ruminansia. Sampah organik yang mudah rusak dapat dimanfaatkan untuk makanan ternak. Namun, sampah organik ini harus dibersihkan dan dipilih terlebih dahulu sebelum dikonsumsi ternak. Penanganan sampah organik terpisah dengan sampah anorganik. Jika sampah organik bercampur dengan sampah yang mengandung logam-logam berat, maka dapat terakumulasi di dalam tubuh ternak yang akan membahayakan manusia pengkonsumsi daging ternak tersebut. Ada beberapa jenis limbah sayuran pasar dapat digunakan sebagai pakan ternak ruminansia diantaranya adalah bayam, kangkung, kubis, kecamba kacang hijau, daun kembang kol, kulit jagung, klobot jagung dan daun singkong. Limbah sayuran pasar yang dominan ada di pasar antara lain kol, daun kembang kol, kulit toge, serta sawi putih, kulit jagung dapat dipergunakan sebagai pakan ternak.Limbah sayuran akan bernilai guna jika dimanfaatkan sebagai pakan melalui pengolahan. Hal tersebut karena pemanfaatan limbah sayuran sebagai bahan pakan dalam ransum harus bebas dari efek anti-nutrisi, terlebih toksik yang dapat menghambat pertumbuhan ternak yang bersangkutan. Limbah sayuran mengandung antinutrisi berupa alkaloid dan rentan oleh pembusukan sehingga perlu dilakukan pengolahan ke dalam bentuk lain agar...

The aim of this study was to determine the nutrient content and to characterize the bioactive compounds of Goroho banana (Musa acumunafe sp) stem meal fermented with Trichoderma viride. Parameter measured were proximate analysis, amino acid, phytochemical, antioxidant potency of goroho banana (Musa acumunafe sp) stem meal fermented. Data were analysed using descriptive method. Results showed that crude protein, crude fibre, crude fat, Ca, P, and gross energy were 4.86%, 22.03, 0.94, 0.42, 0.18 and 3156.67 Kkal/kg, respectively. Amino acid were analyse using HPLC and demonstrated that it was composed by 16 amino acids. Seven of them were essential amino acids; lysine (0.41 %) histidine (0.23 %), leucine (0.56 %), threonine (1.13 %), valine (0.11%), methionine (0.11 %), isoleucine (0.41 %), phenylalanine (0.39 %), and nine of them were non-essential amino acids; serine (0.31 %), aspartic acid (0.56 %), arginine (1.13 %), proline (0.38 %), glutamic acid (0.70 %), glycine (0.33 %), alanine (0.34 %), and tyrosine (0.30 %). Phytochemical screening by colour visualization showed the presence of flavonoid 0.06 % (w/w) and analysis by titrimetric tannin 0.01 %. Vitamins C and E compound were analysed by HPLC, whereas Vitamin C (Ascorbat acid) was 437 mg/kg and Vitamin E (Tocopherol) was < 0.01 mg/100 g. It can be concluded that Goroho banana (Musa acumunafe sp) stem meal fermented with Trichoderma viride can be used as an alternative feed.
