Abstract

Teat dipping is the activity of dipping the nipples of dairy cattle into an antiseptic solution that serves to coat and protect the nipples of livestock from harmful bacterial contamination so as not to cause disease in dairy cattle. This study aimed to obtain preliminary information about the color and screening of alkaloid and saponin content in the eco-enzyme solution, which will later be used as one of the natural antiseptic candidates for teat dipping solution in dairy cattle. This research uses descriptive analysis with the parameters observed, namely color and screening of alkaloid and saponin content in eco-enzyme solutions that have been diluted previously with the following percentages: A: 30% eco-enzyme solution + 70% aquades, B: 60% eco-enzyme solution + 30% aquades, and C: 100% eco-enzyme solution. From the results, it was found that the color of eco-enzyme solution A (transparent yellow), B (transparent yellow), and C (intense yellow and translucent color) while the qualitative test obtained A: positive, B: positive, C: positive (alkaloid content); A: negative, B: positive, and C: positive (saponin content). The results of color tests and screening of alkaloid and saponin content showed that good results were obtained in 100% eco-enzyme solution (C), which can be used as a candidate for natural teat dipping solution in dairy cows.

Abstract

Subclinical mastitis is an inflammatory condition of the mammary gland without visible symptoms in dairy livestock. The subclinical mastitis should be detected periodically in every farm. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of subclinical mastitis in dairy goats on smallholder farms, followed by calculating the goat milk's total plate count (TPC) and pH value. Risk factors thought to cause subclinical mastitis on that farm are traditional livestock rearing techniques and land area that exceeds livestock capacity. The method used was a survey at a smallholder farm and laboratory analysis for the milk quality as a case study of a goat farm in Padang City, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The farm kept 118 goats from different breeds: Ettawa breeders, Sapera, Anglo Nubian, Anglo Sapera, and Anglo Saperaboer. Eighteen dairy goats were in the lactation period in June-July 2023. The results of subclinical mastitis examination of dairy goats were categorized as negative (-), positive 1 (+), positive 2 (++), and positive 3 (+++). The results showed that the prevalence of subclinical mastitis on that farm was 66.7%. Furthermore, milk TPC values (CFU/ml) were 3.1x105 (-), 5.6x106 (+), 9.9x106 (++), and 1.5x107 (+++). The pH values of the milk ranged from about 6.9 to 7.1. In conclusion, there was a high prevalence of subclinical mastitis on the farm. As such, the TPC and pH values were above the Indonesian National Standard for fresh milk quality.

Abstract

Goat milk is increasingly recognized as a functional food in developing countries because of its high nutritional value and digestibility. However, maintaining its microbiological safety and physicochemical stability remains challenging, particularly in smallholder systems under tropical conditions. This study evaluated the quality of dairy goat milk based on total plate count (TPC), pH, and alcohol stability at a smallholder farm in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Milk samples were collected from 16 lactating goats and analyzed using standard laboratory methods. The average TPC was 3.58 × 10⁴ CFU/mL, well below the maximum permissible limit of 1 × 10⁶ CFU/mL Indonesian and Thai Agricultural Standards. The mean pH value was 6.71 ± 0.01, indicating fresh milk conditions, while all samples exhibited negative alcohol test results, confirming protein stability and the absence of early spoilage. These findings demonstrate that high-quality milk can be produced in tropical smallholder systems when basic hygiene practices are properly implemented. This study provides empirical evidence supporting the role of smallholder dairy goat farms in ensuring food safety and sustainable dairy development in emerging economies.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of cassava leaf silage (CLS) with added kefir on the productivity of lactating dairy cows when replacing field grass. Four Holstein Friesian cows in the early lactation phase (66 ± 11 days in lactation) in the second lactation cycle were randomly divided into four dietary treatments based on a 4×4 Latin square design. Diet treatments consisted of control (50% field grass + 25% concentrate + 25% tofu dregs); CLS 0 Kf (30% field grass + 20% CLS with no added kefir + 25% concentrate + 25% tofu dregs); CLS 2.5 Kf (30% field grass + 20% CLS with 2.5% added kefir + 25% concentrate + 25% tofu dregs); and CLS 5 Kf (30% field grass + 20% CLS with 5% added kefir + 25% concentrate + 25% tofu dregs). Results showed differences between treatments in dry matter intake, crude protein, crude fat, and total digestible nutrients (TDN); milk yield; 4% fat-corrected milk (FCM); and milk fat showed significant differences (P<0.05). In conclusion, CLS supplemented with 5% kefir can replace field grass in ruminant diets for lactating cows by increasing nutrient consumption, milk production, and milk fat without changing milk composition and feed efficiency.
