Abstract

The season impacts livestock productivity and cattle kept in grazing production systems in tropical conditions. This research aims to determine the effect of season on the weight changes of Bali cows and calves on oil palm plantations. This research used 20 Bali cattle kept semi-intensively in oil palm plantation areas without feed supplementation in 2016–2018. Cows and calves were weighed at calving and every month until weaning (150 days). Season grouping was based on calving time: dry season (DS) May–October and rainy season (RS) November–April. Data were analyzed by independent T-test statistics using the SPSS 20.0 application. The results of observations showed that cows' body weight decreased gradually until the fourth month of lactation in both seasons. Cows' weight changes were only significantly different in the second month, in which cows at DS were better than RS (P<0.05). The pre-weaning average daily gain (ADG) of calves each month was not significantly different between the two seasons, and they could reach a body weight of 60.60 kg (RS) and 61.47 kg (DS) at weaning. Season differences do not impact weight changes in the Bali cows and calves in the cattle-oil palm plantation production system.

Abstract

Eid al-Adha is one of the biggest religious celebrations in Indonesia. This study was conducted to determine the profile and activities of sacrificers (shohibul qurban) in selecting and procuring sacrificial animals for the Eid al-Adha celebration. This study was conducted by in-depth interviews with a total of 54 sacrificers in Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta, during the Eid al-Adha celebration in 2019. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis (number and percentage). This study indicated that most sacrificers were classified as productive age (45.35 years), high school graduates (46.30%), and self-employed workers (50.00%) with an income of IDR 3,357,896 per month. The sacrificial animals were cattle, sheep, and goats with an average body weight of 253.75 kg, 27.80 kg, and 32.80 kg, and the prices of IDR 20,939,962; IDR 2,906,250; and IDR 2,420,000, respectively. The sacrificial animals were mainly purchased from the livestock seller or intermediary seller (38.89%). There were livestock-price differences in the different marketplaces (44.44%) and between Eid al-Adha and the daily period (61.11%). This study concluded that the cattle preferred animal types for group sacrifices, and the sheep had preferred animal types for individual sacrifice. Cattle are usually sacrificed with a joint purchase between sacrificers. Each reason for selecting and procuring the sacrificial animal types was influenced by different motivations, such as financial, animal handling, and local wisdom factors.

Abstract

Concentrate can improve livestock productivity due to its high protein content. Meanwhile, a high proportion of concentrate consumption in livestock can decrease the pH of the rumen and lead to a decrease in rumen performance. Leguminous plants that have high protein and are abundantly available are a potential source of protein and concentrate substitutes in livestock diets. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Leucaena leucocephala (LL) and Indigofera zollingeriana (IZ) as concentrate substitutes in RDP: RUP-concentrate-based diet on degradation of dry matter degradability (DMD) and organic matter (OMD), digestible neutral detergent fiber (dNDF), in vitro true digestibility (IVTD), pH value, NH3 concentration, and total gas production. This study used a Randomized Block Design, consisting of seven treatments with four replications. The treatments were: T1 = control consist of 40% Pennisetum clandestinum (PC) and 60% concentrate (C) (RDP: RUP of concentrate = 60%:40% of crude protein), T2 = 40% PC + 45% C + 15% LL, T3 = 40% PC + 45% C + 15% IZ, T4 = 40% PC + 30% C + 30% LL, T5 = 40% PC + 30% C + 30% IZ, T6 = 40% PC + 30% C + 15% LL + 15% IZ, T7 = 40% PC + 30% LL + 30% IZ. This study reported that leguminous as concentrate substitutes in RDP: RUP-concentrate-based diet significantly affected nutrient digestibility and total gas production, while pH value and NH3 concentration did not differ among experimental diets. The supplementation of LL 15-30% and IZ 15-30% in RDP: RUP-based diet increases DMD, OMD, IVTD, and total gas production. The combination of LL and IZ 15-30% in RDP: RUP-based diets tend to depress OMD, while other parameters did not differ among experimental diets. The highest DMD, OMD, IVTD, and total gas production were observed in the experimental diet with 30% of IZ substitutes in the RDP: RUP-concentrate-based diet. In conclusion, 30% Indigofera zollingeriana as a concentrate substitute in RDP: RUP-concentrate-based diet can increase nutrient digestibility and optimize rumen fermentation characteristics.
