Growth Performance of Hermetiaillucens and Tenebriomolitor in Different Organic Waste Biconversion Process

The amount of organic waste in Indonesia has increased. One solution to reduce the amount of organic waste is to use the concept of bioconversion. Bioconversion can be done using the larvae of insects Hermetiaillucens and Tenebriomolitor. The type of organic waste and the amount of organic waste given affects the change in body weight of the larvae Hermetiaillucens and Tenebriomolitor (P 0.01). The largest change in the body weight of Hermetiaillucens larvae occurs in the market waste media and the largest change in the body weight of Tenebriomolitor larvae occurs in chicken manure. The survival rates of Hermetiaillucens and Tenebriomolitorare highest in the market waste media.
