POTENCY OF AGRICULTURAL WASTE FOR SEEK IN TOBASA REGENCY
Forage, which is provided by environment, is one of the important factors to consider in animal husbandry since the productivity of the livestock is 70% affected by environment rather than genetic factor whilst 60 up to 80% of cost production is allocated for producing and providing forage. In addition, the grazing land which simultaneously functions as the green resources for animal feed is getting lesser and lesser. In Tobasa regency, North Sumatera, Indonesia, the land used for farming is about 22,685 hectares which are used by the local people for growing paddy, cacao, corn, coffee, and other agricultural products. The waste produced as the result of these agricultural and farming activities can be used as animal feed or forage. This research aims to explore the efforts in reducing agricultural waste and utilize it as forage through fermentation process (ammonization and molasses) as the solution to the forage issues such as low nutrition and rough-fibred substance. The result of this research is expected to fulfill the needs of alternative animal feed and protecting the environment through diminishing agriculture waste
