Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of Fermented Catfish Waste (FCW) on the performance and quality of muscovy duck meat. Experiments were conducted by adding various proportions of FCW in muscovy duck rations and measuring its impact on total ration consumption, daily ration consumption, body weight gain, ration conversion, lipid content and lipid profile of muscovy duck meat. The treatments tested included control (P0) and various levels of FCW, namely 8% (P1), 16% (P2), and 24% (P3). The results showed that the addition of FCW on ration has a significant effect on improving the performance and quality of Muscovy Muscovy meat. The level of FCW administration of 8% resulted in the best performance and meat quality, total ration consumption 7128.00±52.02g, daily ration consumption 101.83±0.74g, body weight gain 1066.80±59.20g, daily body weight gain 15.24±0.85g, ration conversion 6.76 ± 0.37, lipid content 10.39 ± 0.05%, cholesterol 94.58 ± 0.09(mg/dL), triglycerides 32.57 ± 0.08(mg/dL), HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) 40.59 ± 0.09(mg/dL), and LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) 50.63 ± 0.07(mg/dL). In conclusion, the provision of FCW in the diet can improve the quality of muscovy duck meat and provide better health benefits for consumers.
