Abstract
The research aims to create a feed formulation based on the use of meat bone meal (MBM) to improve the production performance of juvenile tilapia. The experiment method used was an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), consisting of 5 treatments and 3 replications: treatment A (control/commercial feed), B (fish meal 75%:25% MBM), C (fish meal 50%:50% MBM), D (fish meal 25%:75% MBM), and E (fish meal 0% 100% MBM). The juvenile tilapia used were 5-8 cm in length and weighed 5,85 ± 0,029 g. The results showed that the effects of substitution of fish meal and MBM for each treatment were significantly different (P<0,05) on the parameters of the production performance of juvenile tilapia. Treatment D gave the best result on production performance, namely SGR (1,45 ± 0,139%g/day) and SR (97 ± 0,82%).
