The experiment was conducted to investigate carcass quality, non-carcass
component and meat cholesterol content of Kacang goat fed with fermented cocoa shell
(FCS). Materials used in the experiment consisted of 9 male Kacang goat (6 - 9 months of
age and ± 18,67 kg of body weight), corn straw, rice bran and FCS using three types of
starters. The goat was divided into 3 groups of FCS fermentation of cocoa shell were
carried out using 3 types of starters, i.e. cocoa shell fermentation 1) without additional
starter (WAS FCS), 2) with Bioplus (Bioplus FCS, 3) with burger feed sauce (BFS FCS).
All goats were fed corn straw and rice bran amounting to 70% and FCS amounting to 30%
for 2 months. They were then slaughtered at Majeluk Slaughterhouse, Lombok. The data
of carcass quality, non-carcass component, cholesterol content, and marbling were
collected. The results showed that the carcass quality and non carcass component of
Kacang goat were not significantly different among the feed treatments. However, the
cholesterol content of meat was significantly different among the feed treatments
