Abstract
Kurtus gulliver fish is one of the most abundant natural resources in Merauke Regency but is not widely consumed by the community, so it can be used as a source of protein for feed raw materials. The purpose of this study was to find out the protein, fat, and fiber content of poultry feed produced using a fish meal, to be used as the basis for the development of diverse local feed raw materials. This study used a random design complete with 3 concentrations of fish meal (5%, 10%, and 15%). The parameters tested are chemical qualities. The results showed an increasing concentration of fish meal, can increase the protein and fat content at the concentration of 15%. The content of fiber increases, but it has no significant effect and is still included in the standard feed needs. Based on these results, it is known as fish meal (Kurtus gulliver), with a mixture of other local ingredients capable of complementing the nutritional needs of poultry, so that it can be developed as a raw material for poultry feed, in supporting the fulfillment of nutritional needs based on local resources. This indirectly supports the diversity of nutritious feed ingredients.
