abstract = {An in vitro technique based on two stages of batch culture was used to clarify fermentability and digestibility of pellet feed containing water spinach (Ipomoea aquatica). The portion of Pennisetum purpureum in the pellet feed was substituted with Ipomoea aquatica at respective levels of 0% (T1), 20% (T2), 40% (T3) and 60% (T4). The treatments were allocated in a completely randomized design with 5 replicates of each. The results showed that the substitution of water spinach in pellet did not effect on pH, ammonia (NH3), enzyme protein and microbial protein. Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA), acetate (C2), propionate (C3), butyrate (C4), methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) were decreased (p},
