The rabbits were allocated randomly into five treatments, the rabbits received diet treatments of P0: Diet were without the fermented grape waste and non-fermented grape waste (Diet of Control), P1: use 5% of fermented grape waste, P2: use 10% of fermented grape waste, P3: use 5% of non fermented grape waste and P4: use 10% of non fermented grape waste. Diet and water were given ad_libitum. The research results that the performances of local male rabbits that were given diet utilization of fermented grape waste and non-fermented grape waste to a level of 10% (P1, P2, P3 and P4) showed a higher yield than the diet control treatment (P0). Variable of carcass also showed not significant different (P>0,05) between all treatments.
