<![CDATA[Melinjo cod has the potential as an energy source of feed for ruminant. This study aims to evaluate rations containing melinjo cod in vitro. The study was conducted experimentally using a completely randomized design. Data collected were analyzed for variance analysis followed by Duncan's test. The treatment is a type of ration containing 0% (R1), 10% (R2), 20% (R3), 30% (R4), and 40% (R5) melinjo cod, each of which is repeated 4 times. Then the ration was evaluated in vitro. The results showed that the use of melinjo cod in the ration produced a significant difference (P <0.05) on fermentability and digestibility in vitro. The use of melinjo cod did not make a difference to the concentration of N-NH3, but resulted in an increase (P<0.05) in the concentration of volatile fatty acids and high digestibility of dry matter and organic matter up to 30% with averages of 155.90 mL, 66.79% and 67.81%. It can be concluded that melinjo cod can be used in ration as much as 30%.]]>
