Indonesian Agricultural Research Abstracts Vol. 26, No. 1, 2009A study was conducted to investigate the effect of earthworm meal levels in the ration on organoleptic testof broiler breast meat. Eighty broilers were assigned into 20 cages with 4 chicks per cage as anexperimental unit. This experiment used a completely randomized design with four treatments (controlversus 5, 10 and 15% earthworm meal) and five replications. The chickens were reared for a 5 weeksperiod, and then 10 chickens from each treatment were slaughtered to obtain data on consumer preferenceof breast meat. Parameters observed were color, texture, taste, tenderness and flavor of broilers breastmeat. It was found that earthworm meal levels in the ration did not significantly (P>0.05) affect theconsumers preference of all breast meat parameters compared with the control. This condition indicatedthat earthworm meal could be used as alternative feed ingredient in the broiler ration according to highconsumers preference on breast meat.E70 TRADE, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION009 SUDJARMOKO, B.Market performance of pandanus as raw material of handicraft industry in Tasikmalaya.

Thestudy was conducted at Tasikmalaya, West Java, as main pandanus handicraft producer, on July-August2004 by using survey method. Data that had been collected consisted of primary and secondary data (timeseries). The sampling method used was simple random sampling for farmers, traders I, traders II, andpandanus handicraft producer. Data analyzing was designed with Structure - Conduct - Performance orSCP model. Farmer share and price transmission elasticity as main indicator and criteria of analysis. Theresults showed that 89.25% farmers used marketing channel I, only 10.75% used marketing channel II.Farmers share were only 31.25% on marketing channel I and 37.50% on marketing channel II. Pricetransmission elasticity was 0.5148 indicated that pandanus market had asymmetric prices information. Theweakness of pandanus performance market caused by imperfect market and market behaviour, besidespowerless bargaining position of pandanus farmers.F01 CROP HUSBANDRY010 DJUNED, H.Effect of harvesting date on content of fiber fractions of mulberry forage (Morus indica L. var.Kanva-2).
