Abstract
Poultry production performance is reflected by body weight gain, ration conversion and carcass percentage. This study was conducted with the aim of knowing the optimum level of use of fermented pineapple peel in the ration on production performance and carcass percentage of male Peking ducks. The research material was male Peking duck aged 3 weeks with initial body weight of 343.90 ñ 0.90 g. 240 male Peking ducks were placed randomly in battery cages based on a Completely Randomized Design with 6 treatments and 5 replications, namely P0=ration without fermented pineapple peel (FPP); P1=the ration contains 5% FPP; P2=ration contains 10% FPP; P3=the ration contains 15% FPP; P4= ration contains 20% FPP and P5=the ration contains 25% FPP.àBased on One way ANOVA analysis and Duncan's test, it was found that the use of fermented pineapple peel 10% significantly (P<0.05) increased the final body weight (1.693g/head), body weight gain (1.350 g/head), and carcass percentage (55.25%). From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the optimum level of use of fermented pineapple peel with yeast culture on body weight gain, slaughter weight, carcass weight and carcass percentage, respectively: 8.80%; 8.40%; 7.25% and 9.50%.

Summary
Materi penelitian Materi yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah itik peking jantan umur 3 minggu dengan bobot badan awal 343,90±0,90 g sebanyak 240 ekor. Pakan itik itik umur 15 hari-8 minggu diberikan ransum yang disusun dengan bahanbahan: pakan konsentrat ternak babi fase pertumbuhan (152 HI-GRO), jagung kuning giling, bekatul dan kulit nanas terfermentasi. Standar kandungan protein kasar (CP) dan energi metabolisme (ME) pakan itik mengacu standar NRC=National Research Council (1994) yaitu ME 2900 kkal/kg dengan CP 16%, mineral (Ca:0,60%; Pav:0,35%; Met+Cys:0,60% dan Lysine 0.90%). Kandang penelitian untuk itik umur 3-8 minggu berupa kandang sistem “battery colony” dengan ukuran 200 cm x 60 cm x 50 cm sebanyak 30 petak dan dilengkapi dengan tempat pakan dari pipa paralon ukuran 3 inci dan tempat air minum terbuat dari botol aqua ukuran 1 liter yang diberi lubang pada bagian tengahnya
