AB  - Livestock productivity required a variety of factors, one of which is the quality of feed. Limitation
of livestock productivity in several area in Indonesia are low quality of feed, restricted of forage, especially,
in dry seasson. A feed processing technology that might be addopted by to farmers the feed of wafers. Feed
wafer processing technology is easy and cheap and can be used to treat these wastes into durable feed, easily
to stored and easily given to livestock. Supplementation level in 5, 10 and 15% of wafer and without
supplementation was observed in this research. The average daily weight gain by giving 10% of wafer feed
supplement to pasundan calves is 58% most highest than other treatment. Final body weight of local calves by
giving 10% of wafer supplement most higest than other treatment, the final body weight by giving 10% of wafer
supplement around 14% higher than giving conventional feed only. Giving wafer feed supplements did not
affect the physiological condition of the cattle based on haematology of blood.
