Abstract
In addition to having high nutrition, Hermetia illucens maggot also has fulfilling nutrients to be used as poultry feed ingredients. The aim of this research was to obtain high H. illucens maggot production and as quality feed. This study was designed using a completely randomized design with four treatments of the media type and three replications. In total, 12 treatment combinations were produced, i.e. 4×3 experimental units. P0: 100% tofu waste, P1: 50% tofu waste and 50% chicken feces, P2: 75% tofu waste and 25% chicken feces, P3: 25% tofu waste and 75% chicken feces. The results obtained were chicken feces media at different levels significantly affected (p<0.05) the dry matter, crude protein, crude fat, and crude fiber level of black soldier flies (H. illucens) maggot. The highest dry matter and crude protein level were on P1 and lowest were on P3. The crude fat level of P0 was significantly higher than P2 and P3 but equal to P1. Crude fiber level of P0 was significantly lower than P2 and was not significantly different from P1 and P3. In conclusion, media that had high production was found in P1 with the high dry matter, crude protein and crude fat levels, and low crude fiber level.
