Abstract

Feather pecking (FP) is a behavioral issue commonly found in cage-free laying hen systems, particularly in 86-week-old hens, often leading to injuries, stress, and even death. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of mineral blocks as environmental enrichment on reducing FP behavior and improving production performance. A total of 4,800 Isa Brown laying hens were assigned to four treatment groups: P0 (no mineral block), P1 (1 block), P2 (2 blocks), and P3 (3 blocks). Observations included feather pecking frequency, feather condition, mortality and morbidity rates, body weight, and feed consumption. The results showed that the use of mineral blocks significantly reduced FP behavior, with the lowest frequency observed in the P3 group. Mortality and morbidity due to cannibalism were also reduced in groups receiving blocks. Body weight was more stable and tended to increase in enriched groups. The provision of mineral blocks, composed of calcium carbonate, molasses, sodium chloride, mono-sodium phosphate, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, mineral oil, and sulfur, proved effective in supporting natural pecking behavior and improving poultry welfare. The study concludes that mineral blocks can be a practical strategy to reduce FP and enhance the productivity and welfare of aging laying hens in cage-free systems.

Abstract

The empowerment of livestock farmers through the utilization of cow manure biogas plays a crucial role in addressing environmental pollution and enhancing rural energy self-sufficiency. This study aims to analyze the empowerment strategy of farmer groups (KTT) in Sruni Village, Musuk District, Boyolali Regency, Central Java, Indonesia, through a participatory biogas utilization program. A survey method using Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) was employed with 45 respondents determined by census sampling. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and analyzed using SWOT analysis. The results of the SWOT analysis indicate that internal strengths include the economic value of biogas, environmental benefits, and the availability of livestock waste, while weaknesses include a lack of skills, insufficient government support, and limited financial resources. External opportunities encompass potential for educational tourism, economic creativity development, and energy substitution. Threats include technical constraints such as installation damage and gas pressure hazards. Based on the SWOT matrix, the recommended strategies emphasize capacity building, technological improvements, strengthening farmer institutions, and promoting biogas as an alternative energy source. The recommended empowerment strategies involve enhancing farmer capacity, optimizing biogas management, improving installation technology, and promoting biogas as an alternative energy source. This study concludes that strategic empowerment interventions can significantly contribute to the realization of energy self-sufficient villages and circular rural economies.

Abstract

Forage feed is the main component in ruminant livestock farming. The main problem faced by smallholder farmers is the fluctuating availability of forage, especially during the long dry season. Silage technology becomes a strategic alternative in providing durable, high-quality, nutritious, and economical feed. This community service program was carried out at D’Mumtaz Farm, Karanganyar, with the aim of enhancing farmers’ capacity in forage processing through the innovative SMART Silage Management approach. The methods included socialization, participatory training, technical demonstrations, and continuous mentoring. The results showed a significant improvement in farmers’ understanding and skills in raw material selection, anaerobic fermentation techniques, and proper silage storage management. Evaluation revealed that 85% of participants were able to produce quality silage according to indicators of aroma, texture, color, and essential nutrient content. The SMART approach has proven effective in helping farmers plan feed production more efficiently, measurably, systematically, and with a focus on business sustainability through digitalization. This program is expected to become an outstanding replication model in empowering farmers based on innovative and competitive forage feed technology.

Abstract

Gentungan Village has established itself as one of the centers for organic farming in Mojogedang District. The village's rice field area spans 109.89 hectares, with a community of 150 farmer-breeders and a beef cattle population of 575 head. The community in Gentungan faces several key challenges, primarily concerning the management of cattle manure waste and dependence on fossil fuels such as LPG. To address these issues, an approach was taken to process cattle livestock waste into biogas. Biogas serves as an alternative energy source capable of replacing LPG for various household needs, including cooking. Biogas systems can be installed in individual households or collectively at the village level. The objective of this community service initiative is to conduct outreach on the utilization of beef cattle farming waste, which is currently not optimized—limited mostly to organic fertilizer production, with few utilizing it for biogas generation as a substitute for LPG energy. The partner for this program is the *Mulyo 1 Farmers Group*, consisting of farmer-breeders in Gentungan Village, Mojogedang District, Karanganyar Regency. The methods employed include conducting outreach sessions and providing direct assistance to farmers and breeders in the installation of biogas systems. The outcome of this service is the establishment of a 6-cubic meter fixed-dome type biogas installation, which can be utilized by the members of the Mulyo 1 Farmers Group as a substitute for LPG energy. As a result, this initiative helps reduce cattle waste while providing farmer-breeders with an alternative energy source to replace LPG.
