Abstract

This investigation was conducted to study the influence of the pelleted field grass (FG) toperformance of Java thin tail (JTT) sheep. Twelve heads of male JTT sheep were devided into 3 groups,consisted of 4 heads as replication, respectively. There were three kinds of ration as treatments, namely:fresh FG (T0), pelleted FG (T1), and combination between 85% FG and 15% rice bran (T2). Themeasured variables were: feed dry matter (DM) consumption, in vivo dry matter digestibility (IVoDMD)and in vivo organic mattter digestibility (IvoOMD), molar proportion of partial volatile fatty acids(VFAs), and daily body weight gain (DBWG). Data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) incompletely randomized design (CRD). Result of this investigation showed hat feed consumption bysheep received pelleted FG was higher (P< 0.05) than those received FG (513 vs 393 g). Ratio of aceticacid : propionic acid in sheep received pelleted FG was lower (P<0.05) than those in sheep received FG(2.53 vs 3.46). Feeding of the pelleted FG resulted in DBWG significantly differed from combinationbetween FG and rice bran (69 and 72 g), and were higher (P<0.05) than feeding of FG (53 g). Inconclusion, the feeding of pelleted FG resulted the higher DM consumption and ruminal propionic acid,the lower acetic acid : propionic acid ratio, than feeding of fresh FG. Feeding of pelleted FG to male JTTsheep increased the DBWG, equivalent to those by feeding of combination between 85% fresh FG an15% rice bran.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to study the mineral status of Java thin-tailed (JTT) sheep grazed in Mijen-Semarang, Central Java. Six month old of male JTT sheep and paddock with field grass vegetation were used in the research. Fifteen male JTT sheeps were divided into three groups consisting of 5 heads per group, and grazing for 2 month (in early rainy season, late rainy season and dry season, respectively). The measured variables were feed consumption, digested organic matter, mineral (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, zinc) level in forage, feces, blood, and daily body weight gain. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance with one-way classification. Magnesium and zinc status of JTT sheep were adequate, whereas phosphorus status was deficient in all season. Calcium in early and late rainy season were deficient (7.37 and 7.86 mg/100 mL, respectively), whereas in the dry season was adequate (8.70 mg/100 mL). The copper deficiency was found in dry and late rainy season (with the Serum copper level was 0.62 and 0.51 µg/mL, respectively, and borderline in early rainy season (64.7 µg/mL). Serum copper in the late rainy season was lower (P<0.05) than it in early rainy season and dry season. There were seasonal variation of mineral status of Java thin-tailed (JTT) sheep grazed in Mijen agricultural area, Semarang, Central Java.

Abstract

The research was aimed to study the manganese (Mn) status of grazing in Java thin-tailed sheep (JTTS),its interrelation with Mn status in the forages and soil, the influence of seasonal factors and landtopography upon the status of respected mineral. Twenty male JTTS of about 6 months old and 2paddocks with field grass vegetation were used in the research. Treatment factor I was topographynamely plain and slope, while treatment factor II was season, namely dry season and rainy season. Thenumber of experimental sheep was divided into 4 groups with 5 heads of sheep for replication in eachgroup and had been grazed for 2 months. The measured variables were soil pH, Mn content in the soil,forage, feces, and blood plasma. The collected data were processed using analysis of variance withfactorial treatment pattern of 2 X 2 in completely randomized design. Mn level in blood plasma of sheepgrazed on plain and slope paddocks were 0.62 and 0.61 mg/l, respectively, in dry season whereas inrainy season were 0.68 and 0.52 mg/l, respectively. Topography did not influence the level of Mn inblood plasma in dry season. Level of Mn in blood plasma of the sheep was lowest in slope area, whereasin plain area was the highest (P<0.05). Manganese level of soil, forage, feces and blood plasma ofexperimental sheep showed the adequate Mn status.

Abstract

Indonesian Indigenous poultry originated from the central part of Java Island, called Kedu chick-en, given diet added with inulin of dahlia tuber extract (IDTE) to evaluate body resistance and protein deposition. The experimental animals were 150 birds of 14-day-old Kedu chicken (initial body weight was 148 ± 16.4 g) until 12 weeks old. Dietary treatments were T1: farmer’s diet with protein concen-trate; T2: T1 + 1.2% inulin of IDTE, and T3: modified diet with common protein sources + 1.2% IDTE. A completely randomized design was assigned with 3 treatments (5 replications with 10 birds each). Parameters observed were rate of passage, protein and fiber digestibilites, Nitrogen (N) and Cal-cium (Ca) retentions, body resistance (plasma concentration of corticosterone/CTC, level of immuno-globulin A/IgA, and heterophyl-lymphocyte/H/L ratio), protein metabolism (fecal Nτ–methylhistidine/Nτ–MH and muscle protein mass), feeds consumption, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and body weight gain (BWG). Analysis of variance and Duncan’s test were applied to analyze data. Rate of passage, N and Ca retentions, BWG, IgA level, and muscle protein mass increased; in contrast, FCR, fecal Nτ–MH, and plasma CTC decreased due to the feeding effect of the T3 diet. All parameters, except IgA level, between treatment T1 and T2 indicated similar values. It can be concluded that a modified diet added with IDTE (T3) can modulate the increase in N retention and immune status, with the decrease in muscle protein degradation indicated by low fecal Nτ–MH excretion, and finally, brings about a bet-ter growth rate, with higher muscle protein deposition.

Abstract

Quail farming is vital for smallholder farmers in Central Java, Indonesia; however, productivity often declines due to poor biosecurity, inadequate water quality, and parasitic infections. This study aims to examine biosecurity practices, water quality, and endoparasite loads in ten quail farms (L1-L10) located in Semarang City and nearby regencies. Data were collected through observations, interviews, water sampling, and analysis of quail droppings. Biosecurity scores (maximum 18) were categorized into three groups: Group-1 (scores 13-18), Group-2 (scores 7-12), and Group-3 (scores 1-6). Water quality was assessed based on pH, E. coli, and coliform counts using triplicate samples from each site. The biosecurity score showed that three farms are in Group-1 (L1, L7, L9), five are in Group-2, and two are in Group-3 (L8, L10). The water pH ranged from 4.8 to 8.0; the highest E. coli count was 19.33 CFU/mL (L9), and the highest Coliform count was 89.67 CFU/mL (L5). L1 had the highest parasite load, with Coccidia, Strongyloides, and Ascaridia sp. at 1000 oocysts/g (OPG), 100 OPG, and 33.33 OPG, respectively. Meanwhile, L7 showed no endoparasites or water contamination. Egg production ranged from 64.29% to 90.00%. Although no significant differences in endoparasite prevalence were found among biosecurity groups or water quality (p>0.05), Coliform levels differed significantly (p<0.05), with the highest levels in conventional well-water. This study revealed that only about one-third of smallholder quail farms in Semarang and its surrounding regencies adhere to proper biosecurity measures. It was also the first to document quail endoparasite burdens as well as E. coli and coliform contamination in drinking water.
