Feed is important component in the livestock industry. Feed quality provide optimal production in this industry, and vice versa. The cost of feed can reach 60-85% of the cost of production, so the emphasis on feed costs needs to be considered. Industrial waste has the potential to be used as a source of feed, one of which is waste from a tofu factory, namely tofu dregs. Tofu dregs contain high crude protein and high palatability value. The high potential of tofu dregs to be used as a source of animal feed, prompted researchers to conduct a study on the potential use of tofu dregs from the Lin's Kuok tofu factory as a source of protein in beef cattle rations. The results showed that Lin's Kuok Tofu Factory's production of tofu dregs in % DM was 31.44 Kg/day CP, CP 9.53 Kg/day, TDN 24.49 Kg/day. The usability of tofu dregs from Lin's Kuok Tofu Factory is (DM) 5.03 AU, CP 14.44 AU and TDN 5.69 AU. Keywords: Rations; Tofu Dregs; Feed animal.
