Abstract

Abstract: This research was aimed to study the potency of suplementation of a combination of palm kernel meal and katuk leaf powder (Sauropus androgynus L. Merr) to the production performance in PE goat. The final target of this study is to develop a strategy for quality control of meat using a "clean, green, and ethical" (CGE) concept of technology. This study were used 20 male PE goat at aged of+ 1.5 years and weight of 15-20 kg. The result showed that the suplementation of BISKAT was induced a higher level of testosterone in male PE goat. In conclusion, testosterone levels of PE goat tends to increase after given a combination of palm kernel meal and katuk leaf powder. Therefore, the technique used in this research might direct us to to develop a strategy for quality control of meat product in livestock using a "clean, green, and ethical" (CGE) concept of technology in the future.
