abstract = {The Mangrove is one of the plants that live in coastal areas, because a lot of their availability, mangrove leaves can be used as animal feed. The problem with this mangrove is contained a fairly high tannin which can be harmful to livestock. This study aims to determine the impact of boiled mangrove leaves (Rhizophora apiculata) with lime water on tannins, digestibility, rumen characteristics, and in vitro methane production. The design used in this study was a randomized block design using 4 treatments and 5 replications. The treatments were boiled with the respective concentrations of quicklime water as follows, P1 (without boiling), P2 (5% lime water), P3 (10% lime water), and P4 (15% lime water) for 10 min. The results showed that boiling mangrove leaves with 5% lime water showed highly significant (p},
