One alternative feed ingredient that can be used to increase crude protein content and reduce crude fiber content in rations is taro leaves. The purpose of this research is to increase the crude protein content and reduce the crude fiber content in the feed so that it can be used as a nutritional ingredient for animal feed, especially for ducks. The method used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments applied were, P0: No treatment, P1: Mixed feed + 1% taro leaf meal, P2: Mixed feed + 2% taro leaf meal, and P3: Mixed feed + 3% taro leaf meal. Based on the results of the study showing that treatment 3 was the best treatment because of the high protein content of 13.79% and the lowest crude fiber content of 11.34%, it can be concluded that the greater the capacity of adding taro leaf flour will increase the crude protein content and reduce Crude fiber content in duck rations.
