Abstrakt: Mangrove plants play an economically and ecologically important role and give various benefits to the people living on the eastern coast of North Sumatra, Indonesia. The purpose of the present study was to determine the nutritional value and tannin content of Rhizophora mucronata mangrove leaves. Proximate analysis of the green mangrove leaves revealed that they contained fat (2.62±0.61% DM), crude protein (6.79 ±0.17% DM), ash (9.32±0.61% DM), moisture (19.95±0.70% DM), and carbohydrate (61.32±1.77% DM). The tannin content of the green leaves was 2.42±1.39 mg/g DM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
