Abstrak

This study was conducted to determine the botanic composition and dry matter production of forage
found under the shade of oil palm. The research was conducted on an oil palm plantation owned by PT.
Medco Papua Hijau Selaras Manokwari for 2 months. The method used is a descriptive method with a
case study technique. The water content analysis was carried out in the Agrostology sub-laboratory of the
Faculty of Animal Science, UNIPA. The results of the study showed that the number of species found was
22 species, the production of dry matter forage under the shade of oil palm in oil palm areas aged 2 years
was 0.36 tons/ha, at 3 years old was 0.44 tons/ha and in the area of 4 years old oil palm is 0.45 ton/ha.
Forage dry matter content ranged from 5.85-20.80%, and the holding capacity for the three oil palm planting
ages was 0.12 UT/ha/year (2 years), 0.15 UT/ha/year (3 years) and 0.15 UT/ha/year (4 years planting). The composition of forage species and the capacity of this area are not yet ideal.
