Evaluasi kecernaan campuran bungkil inti sawit dan onggok yang difermentasi oleh Trichoderma harzianum Rifai untuk pakan Nila Oreochromis sp
Abstract
Utilization of palm kernel cake (PKC) and tapioca waste (TW) as fish diet is limited due to the high fiber content. The experiment consisted of two step. The aim of first experiment was to evaluate the reduction of crude fiber from the mixture of 80% PKC and 20% TW fermented by Trichoderma harzianum with incubation period of 6, 8 and 10 days respectively. An inoculum dose was 5%, and the number of T. harzianum colonies were 2.6x106 CFU/ml. The result showed that the highest crude fiber reduction was achieved in the incubation period of 8 days, reaching 44.28%. The fermentation process could also increased the glucose content. The aim of second experiment was to evaluate the digestibility of fermented PKC-TW (FPKC-TW) for tilapia. Digestibility test was conducted on tilapia with an average initial weight of 41.27 ± 2.16 g and reared in each aquarium (40x50x35 cm) for 15 days. The result showed that digestibility of fermented 80% PKC-20%TW was higher than unfermented PKC. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the use of T. harzianum reduced the fiber content of PKC-TW, thereby increasing the digestibility
