Abstract In Tanah Papua, banana stems have been used as feed by local pig farmers but with a very simple processing method so that has not had a significant impact on the economic traits local pig production. The research aim is to determine an appropriate level of FBSs as a complete feed for local pig’s starters. A total of 12 local piglets aged about 6-12 weeks were given feed treatment using FBSs at levels of 0, 5,10 and 15%. The variables studied were the level of ration consumption (dry matter consumption, crude protein consumption, crude fiber consumption), daily again, and feed efficiency. The data were analyzed using ANOVA with SPSS version 24 program, then the results of ANOVA gave a significant effect followed by the Tukey test. The results showed that the complete feed treatment of FBS was quite good for local pigs starter because the pigs showed good performance. The FBS complete feed produced crude protein (CP) and metabolic energy (ME) relatively higher than the recommended Indonesian national standard (SNI) for pig starter feed. Feed treatment at 10% FBS was considered quite good based on the average daily gain (ADG) and feed efficiency (FE).
