PENGGUNAAN TEPUNG KULIT BUAH KAKAO PADA PAKAN PENGARUHNYA TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI GURAMI
Abstract: The aims of the
research were to observe (1) utilization of cocoa pod husk meal to fish feed
especially for carbohydrate source (2) effect of substitution rice bran by
cocoa pod husk meal on growth and product of giant goramy (3) find the
substitution doses of rice bran by cocoa pod husk meal on feed which could give
better influence on giant goramy growth. The research was done for 8 months in
Fisheries Research Station Laboratory, Agriculture Faculty Gadjah Mada
University. Research was conduct by cultured of giant goramy on fibre tank, for
60 days. There were 5 treatmens substitution dose (20, 40, 60, and 80%) and
control (comercial feed) with 3 replications. During cultured the tank were
irrigated and the fish were fed 3% of body weight 3 times a day. The result
showed that cocoa pod husk meal can substitute rice bran on giant goramy feed.
Substitution rice bran by cocoa pod husk meal on fed not significantly affect
on the growth, product and survival rate of giant goramy, but significant
affected on buoyancy of feed. Giant goramy were feeding by comercial feed had
growth and product better than feeding by artificial feed.
