Abstract

Beef cattle farming is one of the livestock sectors that plays an important role in food security and economic growth. This study aims to identify the production factors that affect the profitability of beef cattle farmers in Langkat Regency. The research method used was a survey, with multistage random sampling as the sampling technique. The respondents were 80 beef cattle farmers. Data collection methods included observation and direct interviews with the farmers. The statistical test used was multiple linear regression using SPSS. The results demonstrate that feed cost, artificial insemination (AI) cost, labour cost, and farmer age have a significant impact on farm profit. The results demonstrate that feed cost, artificial insemination (AI) cost, labour cost, and farmer age have a significant impact on farm profit. In part, feed cost, AI cost, labor cost, and farmer age all significantly affect profitability. Feed costs account for 54.46% of total production costs, followed by labor (41.11%) and AI (4.43%). The results indicate that the key cost items are determinants for beef cattle profitability. Furthermore, to the extent that older farmers tend to be less profitable, farmers’ age has a negative and significant effect on profitability. This association could be explained by higher resilience to change, lesser management adaptability, and limited digital proficiency, which themselves impair access to information and business opportunities through digital means.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of Averrhoa bilimbi leaf extract towards the reproductive organ characteristics and the egg quality in laying hens, based on mature follicle numbers, ovary weight, yolk colour, yolk index and egg fertility. The experiment was performed for 9 weeks in the Poultry Laboratory of Polbangtan Yogyakarta Magelang using a completely randomised design (CRD) with four treatments (P0 = control, P1 = 0.5 mg, P2 = 1 mg, P3 = 1.5 mg) and five replications. ANOVA and Duncan’s multiple range test were used for data analysis, and yolk colour was tested by the Kruskal-Wallis method. The extract demonstrated statistically significant influence (p<0.05) on ovary weight, yolk colour, yolk index, fertility and number of mature follicles. The P3 treatment showed the highest values for mature follicles (7.0±0.7), ovary weight (59.54±6.15 g), yolk colour (11.20±0.45), yolk index (0.34±0.01), and fertility (78.33±19.9%). These results indicate that Averrhoa bilimbi leaf extract has a beneficial influence on reproductive performance and egg quality in laying hens.
