IRINE FATKHATUL ZULFA. Production Performance of
Local Rabbit Fed with Commercial Feed and Substituted with Bean Sprouts’ Waste.
Supervised by MUHAMAD BAIHAQI and MOHAMAD YAMIN.
Rabbit (Orictolagus cuniculus) is small
livestock animal that has great potential as meat-producer for its prolific
characteristic, rapid growth rate and capability to eat agricultural waste.
Bean sprouts wastes were from market that can still be used as feed source for
its nutrition content. The aim of this research was to study production
performance of local rabbit fed with bean sprouts’ waste. Twelve local rabbit
fryers age 12 weeks with average body weight of 747±104.53 g used in this
study. There were three treatments that consisted of 100% commercial feed as
control treatment (P0); 30% bean sprouts’ waste and 70% commercial feed (P1);
and 50% bean sprouts’ waste and 50% commercial feed (P2). The result showed
that different treatments had no effect on dry matter and crude protein
consumption, TDN, and daily weight gain. In conclusion, bean sprouts’ waste can
be used as rabbit feed substitution up to 50% without giving negative effect on
its production performance.
