Farmers groups Fishing "Mina Kepis" is a group of fish farmers in the hamlet Burikan, District Sumberadi, Mlati subdistrict, Sleman, Yogyakarta. The problems that exist in this group is the high price of fish feed (pellets). The longer the pellet increasingly inflated prices, this affects the rising operating costs resulting in reduced profit margins. Another problem is the lack of skills to make fish feed independently alternatives that can reduce production costs. Therefore it is necessary for the introduction of technology in the manufacture of fish feed alternatives including alternative fish pellet making machine. The purpose of this activity is (1) the introduction and transfer of technology in the manufacture of alternative fish feed (pellets) with raw material bioslurry through training activities, (2) making fish pellet machine, (3) Trial the pond use the fish pellet bioslurry . The method used in this achievement is using participatory approach (Participatory Rural Appraisal / PRA). The results showed that alternative fish pellet making machine has a capacity of 5 kg of dry pellet / hour. Alternative fish pellets can be made by using bioslurry with a width of 3-5 mm diameter granule with protein content 12-35% depend on fish pellet formulation. The result on the trial pond showed that the use of bioslurry pellet with 35% in coumiss fish, until 2 weeks the coumiss fish condition was healthy, while in the young tilapia fish with bioslurry pellet with 14% protein, in the first week several of fish was dead but in the second week the water is green because in the grow some lichenes and the fish condition is healty and adaptation to pellet.
