Abstract

This study aimed to study the blood plasma minerals of  thin-tailed weaning ram prior to administration of Sargassum sp. as a source of minerals. Research materials and methods. The use of Sargassum sp. seaweed flour. sun-drying on 16 weaned thin tailed rams, aged 5-6 months with a bodyweight of ±11.8 kg for 3 months, using a 4x4 completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments, namely T1 = forage + concentrate + 0% minerals of concentrate, T2 = Forage + concentrate + cow booster minerals 0.38% of concentrate, T3 = forage + concentrate + Sargassum sp.5% of concentrate, T4 = forage + concentrate + Sargassum sp.10% of concentrate. The observed research variables were the consumption of macro minerals (Ca, Mg, K, and Na and micro minerals Cu, Fe, and Zn) and  balance of macro minerals Ca, Mg, K. and Na and micro minerals (Cu, Fe, and Zn blood plasma before and after treatment with seaweed Sargassum sp. The results showed that the treatment had a significant effect (P<0.05) on mineral Ca consumption, Mg, K, Na, Cu, Fe, and Zn. Blood plasma minerals before treatment did not differ on Mg, Na, Cu, Fe, Zn, but had a significant effect (P<0.05) on Ca and K. The treatment had a significant effect (P<0.05) on minerals Mg, Cu, and Fe in blood plasma, but did not affect Ca, K, Na, Zn. Based on the results obtained, the use of Sargassum sp. 10% of the total concentrate with sun drying can increase the consumption of macro and micro minerals as well as increase the minerals Mg, Cu, and Fe in the blood plasma of weaning rams.

Abstract

Indonesia's annual beef consumption is experiencing a steady rise. In 2021, the per capita beef consumption amounted to 2.56 kg per person per year, resulting in a total of 696 million kilograms consumed across the country. This quantity is equivalent to the slaughtering of approximately 3.98 million cattle annually. With the increasing growth of the feedlot industry, cattle farmers, including feedlot operators, have the opportunity to enhance the value of agricultural companies in Indonesia by utilizing local feedstuffs. The objective of this study was to assess the suitability and nutritional value of indigenous feed sources for beef cattle in Indonesia. The research utilized feedstuff varieties and characteristics sourced from feedlots spanning since 2012-2021. The employed methodologies encompassed surveys, interviews, and questionnaires. This research involved the collection of both primary and secondary data. The potential and quality of local feedstuff were described using descriptive analysis. This research showed that eight types of local feedstuff could be categorized as energy sources including dehydrated cassava chips with a total digestible nutrients (TDN) value of 84.2% and bran pollard with a TDN value of 66.6%. The fiber sources consisted of corn cob (37.7% crude fiber), coffee husk (38% crude fiber), cocoa bean shell (20% crude fiber), tapioca solid waste/onggok (22% crude fiber), and palm kernel meal (22.1% crude fiber). The protein source consisted of copra meal with a protein content of 22.4%. The physical test most frequently inspected the feed color (18.1%) and odor (18.1%). Moisture examination (24%) was the most frequently used of proximate analysis was employed to identify the chemical composition. In conclusion the existence of eight local ingredients which were categorized into three different types: energy source, protein source, and fiber source commonly used in the concentrate formula for beef cattle feedlots in Indonesia.

Abstract

Iron's significance in human health and diseases has been extensively examined in recent reviews, leading to the consensus that iron insufficiency is a worldwide issue requiring immediate attention. Fe-enriched eggs are significant for delivering this essential trace mineral to humans. This study aimed to assess the effects of adding premix minerals on the physical and chemical quality of eggs and the yolk's iron levels. 1,680 Lohman brown laying hens, aged 31 weeks (body weight: 1.70±0.11 kg, egg production average: 81.2 %), were divided into two groups (n = 840) and fed different diets for six weeks. The diets included a basal diet (CON) and a diet enriched with a 2.5 g / kg food premix mineral (PM-Fe). The findings indicated that there was no impact on the physical and chemical quality of the eggs. However, compared to the control diet, the addition of premix significantly enhanced the iron level in the yolk after 42 days (p<0.05). To summarize, adding 2.5 g per kg of premix mineral (which contains 12.6 g per kg of iron premix) can result in a 23.4% rise in iron content in the diet and a 15.7% increase in iron content in the egg yolk.

Abstract

This study investigates strategies to improve vaccination coverage for Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) and Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) in rural farming in Indonesia. Using a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, this qualitative study identifies effective communication strategies and technical solutions to enhance vaccination uptake and biosecurity practices. A total of 260 participants from five regions including Bali, East Nusa Tenggara, South Sulawesi, Yogyakarta, and Central Java participated in separate focus group discussions held in pairs among farmers, livestock traders, and government officials, focusing on farmers' perceptions, media habits, and information-seeking behaviors regarding disease prevention. Findings show that farmers supportive of vaccination access reliable information via agricultural extension workers and digital platforms, while skeptics rely on familiar, traditional sources. The study emphasizes the critical role of community leaders, such as religious figures and village heads, in disseminating trustworthy information. Technical recommendations include integrating vaccination with veterinary services, establishing compensation funds for livestock losses, and utilizing technology to improve adherence. The study advocates for multi-sector collaboration among local governments, veterinary associations, and community leaders to address resource shortages and ensure vaccination success. It also recommends prioritizing face-to-face interactions, informal approaches, and leveraging social media, local wisdom, and culture-based activities, particularly during social and religious events, to engage farmers, especially the younger demographic
