Substitution of fishmeal with black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens L) against the performance of native chickens grower phase

Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae ( Hermetia illucens ) is a feed that has a high protein content. The research aims to determine the role of the use of the BSF larvae the performance of a grower-phase poultry that substituted fish flour.

Description
Summary:Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae ( Hermetia illucens ) is a feed that has a high protein content. The research aims to determine the role of the use of the BSF larvae the performance of a grower-phase poultry that substituted fish flour. A total of 120 4-week-old native chickens were alloted to 5 dietary treatments and 4 replications based on the completely randomized design. The treatment consists of P0 (basal rations + 100% fish flour), P1 (basal rations + 75% fish flour + 25% BSF larvae flour), P2 (basal rations + 50% fish flour + 50% BSF larvae flour), P3 (basal rations + 25% fish flour + 75% BSF larvae flour), P4 (basal rations + 100% BSF larvae flour). The parameters measured were the ration consumption, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio and protein consumption. The study showed that there were significant effect of treatment on feed consumption, the increasing of body weight and protein consumption. It concluded that feeding chicken the basal rations + 25% fish flour + 75% BSF flour can improve the performance of native chickens.
