Abstract


Maggot has the potential as a feed mixture. In an effort to produce good Maggot, the best media is needed for the growth and reproduction of these larvae. Maggots The black soldier fly, Black Soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) is almost spread throughout the world especially Indonesia, black soldier fly Maggots including Maggot flies are immune and can live in quite extreme environments, such as waste or rubbish. Maggot Black Soldier Fly (BSF) is the larva of the BSF fly insect (Hermetia illucens) which has potential as an alternative animal feed with economical price. Efforts to increase BSF maggot production are carried out by grow it on tofu dregs, coconut pulp, solids or palm mud. Objective This research is to determine the effect of using culture media on tofu dregs, coconut pulp, solids or palm mud for Black Soldier fly and evaluate the effect of different culture media on the nutritional content of crude fat, crude protein, crude fiber and dry Ingredients in tofu dregs, coconut pulp, solids or palm mud in Black Soldier fly, as well as an explanation of the advantages and disadvantages associated with each method. This research uses several culture media such as tofu dregs, coconut pulp, solids or palm mud. The results of this research show that the nutritional content of tofu dregs has a high crude protein of 23.63% and a low dry Ingredients of 8.69%. For the nutritional content of coconut pulp, it has high crude fiber of 31.6% and low crude protein of 5.6%. And finally the nutritional content of solid or palm mud has a high dry Ingredients of 81.65% and a low crude fat of 6%. Data shows that some culture media have high nutritional content of crude protein, crude fiber and dry Ingredients. Meanwhile, the nutritional content of crude fat is low.
