The need for animal protein to meet the nutrition of the human body always increases with time. Ducks are a source to meet animal protein in addition to chicken and the protein content in ducks is greater than chicken. The ease in raising ducks and the relatively cheap prices are one of the reason this research was conducted to make alternatives in fulfilling animal protein sources. Utilization of BSF (Black Soldier Fly) as poultry feed can reduce the cost of feed rations because BSF is a bioconversion agent. This study aims to determine the existence of differences in feeding between commercial and treatment of feed ration on the nutritional content of duck meat as a whole, determine the best meat in each parameter measurement of duck meat proximate test, and determine the best overall treatment based on analysis of meat proximate test duck. The results showed that based on the results of the meat proximate test, it was seen that there was a difference between the control treatment and the treatment of giving different feed rations, the best results were viewed from the water content ie in treatment A, ash content in treatment D, best protein content in treatment D, best fat content in treatment E, and the best energy content in treatment C, and overall, the best meat is in treatment D.
