Abstract

This study aims to calculate the production of vegetable waste from several traditional markets in Bandung City, select vegetable waste, and provide selected vegetable waste to Java Barb (Barbonymus gonionotus) and Kissing Gourami fish (Helostoma temminckii). The method used in calculating the production of market vegetable waste is to use secondary data, while the test feeds on fish using a Completely Randomized Design. The results obtained from this study are the production of vegetable waste from the 9 markets surveyed reached a total of 2,628.37 kg/day. The types of vegetable waste selected for the test fish feed were water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica) and mustard greens (Brassica juncea). The best absolute growth value was obtained in pond fish with an absolute growth value of 63.76 g. Based on the results of the study, traditional market vegetable waste can be a solution to reduce vegetable waste and as cheap alternative feed ingredients.
