Pemanfaatan Tepung Daun Mengkudu (Morinda Citrifolia L) Yang Difermentasi Menggunakan Rhyzopus Sp. Dalam Pakan Benih Ikan Patin (Pangasianodon Hypophthalmus)
Noni leaves (Morinda citrifolia L.) are a promising alternative plant protein source for aquafeed due to their relatively high crude protein content (15%– 22.11%). However, their high crude fiber content can reduce nutrient digestibility, necessitating appropriate processing to enhance their nutritional value. This study evaluated the effects of incorporating Rhizopus sp.-fermented noni leaf meal (FNLM) on feed efficiency and growth performance in striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus). A completely randomized design (CRD) was used with five isoproteic diets (35% crude protein). The control diet (P0) consisted entirely of soybean meal, while diets P1, P2, P3, and P4 replaced soybean meal with FNLM at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, respectively. Juvenile striped catfish (initial body weight: 3,29 ± 0,10 g) were stocked in 1 × 1 × 1 m floating net cages at a density of 30 fish per cage. Fish were fed at 10% of biomass, three times daily (08:00, 12:00, and 16:00) for 56 days. The results showed that FNLM inclusion significantly affected feed efficiency and growth performance. The optimal substitution level was 75%, resulting in improved feed digestibility (59.32%), protein digestibility (81.05%), protein retention (25.29%), feed efficiency (43.34%), and specific growth rate (3.62%/day).
