ABSTRACT

ANALYSIS OF FEED COST USING SAWDUST ENGINEERING AS PART IN RATION OF LAYER DUCK AT TOUNELET VILLAGE, KAKAS DISTRICT, MINAHASA REGENCY. Duck was one animal species developed by communities as their source of income at Tounelet village. Animal feed cost was the main problem due to limitation of feed ingredient materials. Sawdust was saw-mill by-product containing high lignin. Lignin could be reduced by engineering method. The objective of this study was to evaluate feed cost using sawdust engineering as part in ration of layer duck at Tounelet village, Kakas district of Minahasa regency. Total oh sixty layer duck was used in this study fed ration containing part of sawdust engineering. Primer and secunder data were collected during two months. Results showed that the highest feed cost of layer duck was found in ration without sawdust engineering. The lowest feed cost was found in ration consisted of 40 percents based ration and 60 percents parts of sawdust engineering. Therefore, it can be concluded that utilization of parts of sawdust engineering was more efficient in layer duck ration.

Key words: ration, sawdust engineering, layer duck
