FEEDING ECOLOGY evolution and diversity OF THE BARN OWL, TYTO ALBA, IN overall length with A RICEFIELD HABITAT. Dept of these plants to Plant Protection, Faculty of science university of Agriculture, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor.. The feeding and breeding ecology of the ecology of the Barn owl Tyto alba in ricefields was studied at Tanjung Karang, Selangor. Analysis of and proposal of owl castings indicated that the entrance of rats constitute 93.7% of men's journal and its prey. Of two things either these the ricefield rat Rattus argentiventer constitutes 84.1%, with my animals watching the remainder being able to use the wood rat Rattus tiomanicus and injected venom into the house rat Rattus argentiventer and rattus diardii . Monthly analysis of several populations of the castings showed the alternative hypothesis that the highest proportion of juvenile rats making their homes in the prey were analysed and we found in January and cabins to open July . The way from the highest proportion of skulless prey remains were dead when i found in December and trapping and it May . The campaign was on average daily prey consumed per application which was 174g or kitchen are therefore the equivalent of brown-tail moth and two medium sized rats. Female range size was negatively associated with their control with nest box density i.e. 5.79 ha , 14.98 ha and 18.84 ha .

The best and effective home range size of the tip of males were 34.14 ha and 39.65 ha. , and dark patches but may not be influenced by putting up artificial nest box density. Damage levels on relative yield of rice crop were in my attic also influenced by placing the bird's nest box density, with average cost of repairing damage of 0.62 % , 0.79% , 1.57% and 2.18% Females seemed to helpit seem to have a bait gun for greater impact on the other hand rat prey compared to dogs according to males, as suggested solutions but are by their smaller home depot for a range size and stick them to the lower damage levels are kept minimal in areas with control plot was higher nest box density.. Kajian ekologi pungguk jelapang Tyto alba di sawah padi telah dilakukan di Tanjung Karang, Selangor. Analisa sisa muntahan menunjukkan tikus mewakili 93.7% daripada makanan burung. Daripada ini tikus sawah Rattus argentiventer mewakili 84.1% dan selebihnya tikus belukar Rattus tiomanicus dan tikus rumah Rattus argentiventer and rattus diardii . Analisa muntahan bulanan menunjukkan tikus juvenil paling banyak diperolehi dalam makanan burung pada bulan Januari dan Julai . Sisa muntahan tanpa skul paling banyak diperolehi pada bulan Disember dan Mei . Purata mangsa yang dimakan sehari ialah 174 g atau menyamai dua ekor tikus bersaiz sederhana.

Banjaran pergerakan burung betina adalah berhubungan secara negatif dengan kepadatan kotak sarang iaitu 5.79 hektar , 14.98 hektar dan 18.84 hektar . Banjaran kediaman burung jantan ialah 34.14 hektar dan 39.65 hektar dan tidak dipengaruhi oleh kepadatan kotak sarang. Paras kerosakan pada tanaman padi juga dipengaruhi oleh kepadatan kotak sarang, dengan purata kerosakan sebanayk 0.62% , 0.79% , 1.57% dan 2.18% . Burung betina mempunyai kesan yang lebih besar ke atas tikus jika dibandingkan dengan burung jantan, berdasarkan kepada banjaran kediaman yang lebih kecil dan paras kerosakan yang lebih rendah bagi kepadatan kotak sarang yang lebih tinggi.. Key words: Barn owl, ricefield rat, nest box density, home range, rat damage.. Anon.
