In this study, the materials used are cassava (Manihot esculentra) and pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) with a ratio of in 1 kg is 60:40, 50:50, and 40:60 using thread method. The purpose of this study was to determine the content of water, ash, fat, protein, fiber and carbohydrates in hybrid rice produced. The results showed that the best ratio of cassava and pumpkin was 50:50 in which the protein, fat, water, ash, fiber and carbohydrate content were 3.25%, 0.1%, 6.49%, 2.17%, 4.6%, 71.89%, respectively.
