P0 treatment without watering, watering twice P1, P2 watering three times, and four times P3 watering. Feed given a limited basis. The data obtained in the study were analyzed using analysis of variance RAL, if there is the influence followed by LSD test. Based on the results kosumsi highest feed on P3 (1782.14 g), and the lowest P0 (1340.47 grams). The highest body weight gain contained in P3 (332 grams), and the lowest in P1 (225.66 grams). Feed conversion is highest in P1 (6.86), and the lowest P3 (5.36). Based on the results of the study concluded that the frequency of watering Duroc pigs are very significant (P <0.01) on feed consumption and body weight gain. As for the feed conversion no significant effect (P> 0.05). Advice can be given regarding the outcome of this study is the frequency of watering can be done as often as possible to increase consumption.
