Abstract

This study aims to determine the differences in the quality of fresh semen from exotic cows during different seasons at the Regional Insemination Center of West Nusa Tenggara Province. The research was conducted at the Regional Artificial Insemination Center of West Nusa Tenggara Province from February 10 to 20, 2025. The variables examined included semen volume, pH, sperm motility, and sperm concentration. Data analysis involved comparing paired T-tests using Tools Excel. Based on the research results, different seasons showed variations in semen quality. The best values were observed during the dry season, with an average semen volume of 4.84 ± 2.02 ml and a pH of 7.01 ± 5.24. In contrast, during the rainy season, the average sperm motility was 66.55 ± 9.58%, and the sperm concentration was 1569.95 ± 430.36 x 10?/ml. The quality of fresh semen from exotic bulls at BIBD was influenced by seasonal differences, particularly in terms of semen volume.

Abstract

Abstrak: Saat ini jumlah populasi ternak kerbau di Kabupaten Sumbawa terus menurun secara signifikan, sehingga salah satu akibatnya adalah menurunnya pendapatan peternak. Selain itu, kelangkaan kerbau dapat mengancam keberadaan budaya ‘Barapan Kebo’ yang merupakan tradisi unik dan ikonik kabupaten Sumbawa. Salah satu penyebab dari permasalahan tersebut adalah kelangkaan pakan yang tersedia pada saat musim kemarau. Oleh karena itu, dilakukan pelatihan membuat pakan silase dengan bahan baku utama adalah lamtoro dan gamal kepada kelompok ternak Liang Bukal desa Batu Tering yang terdiri dari 27 anggota. tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan, keterampilan serta sikap kepedulian peserta terhadap keberlanjutan program pembuatan pakan. Metode yang digunakan adalah Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) pada kegiatan penyuluhan dan praktek langsung pembuatan silase. Evaluasi yang digunakan adalah evaluasi pre-test-post-test dengan menggunakan metode uji tanda, evaluasi tingkat efektivitas kegiatan pelatihan, serta dilakukan evaluasi kualitas pakan yang dihasilkan dengan memperhatikan tingkat jamur, PH, bau, bentuk dan warna. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan dan sikap kepedulian peserta terhadap keberlanjutan program mengalami peningkatan yang signifikan setelah mengikuti kegiatan pelatihan. Tingkat efektivitas pelatihan sebesar 79%, dengan demikian kegiatan pelatihan tersebut terbukti efektif. Sehingga program pelatihan ini sangat sesuai dan dibutuhkan kelompok ternak. Selain itu, hasil pakan ternak silase yang dihasilkan termasuk dalam kategori baik sekali.Abstract: Currently, the buffalo population in Sumbawa Regency continues to decline significantly, resulting in a decline in the income of livestock farmers. Furthermore, the scarcity of buffalo can threaten the existence of the 'Barapan Kebo' culture, a unique and iconic tradition of Sumbawa Regency. One of the causes of this problem is the scarcity of available feed during the dry season. Therefore, training was conducted on making silage feed using the main raw materials of lamtoro and gamal for the Liang Bukal livestock group of Batu Tering village, consisting of 27 members. The purpose of this activity was to enhance the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of participants regarding the sustainability of the feed production program. The method used was Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) in extension activities and direct practice of silage production. The evaluation employed a pre-test-post-test design using the sign test method, assessing the level of effectiveness of training activities, and evaluating the quality of the resulting feed by observing the levels of mould, pH, odour, shape, and colour. The evaluation results showed that the participants' knowledge and attitudes regarding the sustainability of the program increased significantly after participating in the training activities. The training effectiveness rate was 79%, demonstrating its effectiveness. This program is highly suitable and necessary for livestock groups. Furthermore, the resulting silage feed yields were considered excellent.

Abstract

Abstrak: Musim kemarau di Kabupaten Sumbawa ditandai oleh tingkat kekeringan yang sangat tinggi, yang berdampak pada terbatasnya ketersediaan pakan ternak. Kondisi ini berpotensi menurunkan produksi sapi, sehingga menghambat pencapaian program NTB Bumi Sejuta Sapi. Desa Poto, Kabupaten Sumbawa, merupakan salah satu daerah dengan produksi jagung yang melimpah berdampak pada meningkatnya jumlah limbah jagung. Produksi jagung yang melimpah menghasilkan limbah dalam jumlah besar, yang umumnya dibakar oleh petani untuk membersihkan lahan, meskipun hal ini menimbulkan polusi. Padahal, limbah jagung masih mengandung nutrisi yang bisa dimanfaatkan sebagai pakan ternak. Melalui program pemberdayaan kemitraan masyarakat, dilakukan pelatihan kepada Kelompok Tani Ternak Lenang Rea III untuk mengolah limbah jagung menjadi pakan alternatif menggunakan mesin pencacah (Hammer Mill). Pelatihan ini bertujuan meningkatkan hardskill mitra dalam fermentasi limbah jagung dan formulasi pakan ternak. Meningkatan softskill dalam kesadaran akan pentingnya inovasi, keberlanjutan lingkungan, dan potensi ekonomi dari limbah jagung. Tiga tahapan kegiatan meliputi diskusi, pelatihan pembuatan silase dengan metode Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), dan evaluasi. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan tingkat kepuasan peserta cukup tinggi dengan skor total setiap variabel berada dalam rentang antara 0,72 hingga 0,88, yang mengindikasikan bahwa nilai pada masing-masing indikator berada pada kategori sedang (medium). Secara keseluruhan, nilai Technology Readiness Index (TRI) sebesar 3,14, menandakan kesiapan moderat dalam menerapkan teknologi pengolahan limbah jagung.Abstract: The dry season in Sumbawa Regency is characterized by very high levels of drought, which impacts the limited availability of animal feed. This condition can potentially reduce cattle production, thus hampering the achievement of the NTB Bumi Sejuta Sapi program. Poto Village, Sumbawa Regency, is one of the areas with abundant corn production, which impacts the increasing amount of corn waste. Abundant corn production produces large amounts of garbage, which farmers generally burn to clear the land, although this causes pollution. Corn waste still contains nutrients that can be used as animal feed. Through the community partnership empowerment program, training was conducted for the Lenang Rea III Livestock Farmers Group to process corn waste into alternative feed using a shredder (Hammer Mill). This training aims to improve the hard skills of partners in corn waste fermentation and animal feed formulation. Increasing soft skills in awareness of the importance of innovation, environmental sustainability, and the economic potential of corn waste. The three stages of activity include discussion, silage-making training using the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) method, and evaluation. The evaluation process involved [specific details about the evaluation process]. The evaluation results showed that the level of participant satisfaction was relatively high, with the total score of each variable ranging from 0.72 to 0.88, indicating that the value of each indicator was in the medium category. Overall, the Technology Readiness Index (TRI) value was 3.14, indicating moderate readiness to implement corn waste processing technology.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of supplementary feeding of bean sprouts on the microscopic quality of Balinese cattle spermatozoa at the Regional Artificial Insemination Center of West Nusa Tenggara Province. Microscopic semen evaluation includes volume, mass movement, individual movement, motility and concentration. The design used was a complete randomized design (CRD) and data analysis using Anova which was further tested using Duncan. The mass movement of Balinese spermatozoa in P1 and P2 has a percentage value of 67% (+++), which indicates that the spermatozoa move to form large and progressive waves. Individual motion in P2 produces a very progressive motion with the highest percentage of 60%. The results of the analysis of volume, motility and concentration of Balinese spermatozoa showed significantly different results in P2, namely the treatment with the addition of 4 kg of bean sprouts. Based on the results of this study, it shows that there is an effect of supplementary feeding of bean sprouts with the treatment of 4 kg per week on the microscopic quality of Balinese spermatozoa at the Regional Artificial Insemination Center of NTB Province.
