ABSTRACT
The availability of protein, vitamins, minerals and calcium in feed are also very important in the process of gonad development of tilapia. This research aims to examine the reproduction of tilapia fish that add bean sprout extract to feed at different doses. Addition of bean sprout extract to feed at different doses for rematuring female tilapia fish that are kept for 18 days. The feed used in the research was CPP floating feed with a protein content of 31%, mixed with bean sprout extract according to the treatment: A (control without bean sprout extract), B (10% bean sprout extract), C (30% bean sprout extract), and D (50 % bean sprout extract). Data were analyzed based on the parameters of gonad maturity level, gonad maturity index, and fecundity. Gonad maturity level IV, ready to spawn. Bean sprout extract did not have a significant effect on the gonad maturity index, with the highest gonad maturity index at a dose of 10% (3.96%) compared to the control (3.29%). The highest fecundity was also found at a dose of 10% (3,380 grains), decreasing at higher doses, but still higher than the control (1,824 grains). The addition of bean sprout extract increased fecundity but did not significantly affect the gonad maturity index.
