Abstract: The objective of the research were to know energy and protein retention on the body of local rabbit that fed local grasses as basic feed which is supplemented with concentrate of agro industry waste product in different levels. Materials of the research used were 120 male local rabbits, with design of Randomized Block Design, 4 treatments, 6 blocks and five rabbits on each treatment unit. Treatment R0 (control): local grasses without concentrate supplementation, treatment R1: diet control supplemented concentrate for 15 g/head/day, treatment R2: diet control supplemented concentrate 30g/head/day, treatment R3: diet control supplemented concentrate for 45 g/head/day. Result of the research showed that the animal fed R3 was higher (P<0,05) than R2, R1 and R0. It was concluded that the animal fed local grasses supplemented 45 g concentrate /head/day produced higher significantly different energy and protein retention than the other. Keywords: growth, feed efficiency, digestibility energy.
