Abstract

Milk is a livestock product with high nutritional content, recognized as a source of complete and balanced nutrition for humans, as it contains essential carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals, and vitamins. Improper milk handling can also cause a short shelf life and low selling prices, which ultimately will also reduce the income of farmers as milk producers. Good packaging can protect the product from microbial contamination and prevent the oxidation process caused by light and oxygen. The type of packaging certainly affects the physical, chemical, and microbiological quality of fresh cow's milk during storage. The purpose of this study was to determine the physical, chemical, and microbial quality of fresh cow's milk in different packaging during storage. This study used a completely randomized design factorial pattern consisting of 2 (two) factors: the type of packaging and storage time. The observed variables were colour, pH, water content, protein content, and total microbial count. The data obtained were analyzed using ANOVA (analysis of variance); if significant results were found (P < 0.05), they were further analyzed using Duncan's multiple range test. The results showed that the type of aluminum pouch packaging was able to inhibit microbial growth due to its airtight and light-resistant properties, which allowed it to maintain temperature quality during storage. Milk packaged in aluminium packaging of size 7.6 x 104 cfu/ml, which is smaller than milk in glass and plastic bottles. Furthermore, milk packaged in aluminium has the highest protein content during storage, namely 3.302%.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the organoleptic assessment, protein content, and fat content of broiler chicken eggs soaked in mangosteen peel extract (Garcinia mangostana L.) during storage. The research design used was a completely randomized design factorial pattern consisting of 2 factors. The first factor was the mangosteen peel extract solution with different concentrations (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%). The second factor was storage for 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks. The data obtained were analyzed for diversity using an ANOVA test, and if a significant effect was found (P <0.05), then the analysis continued with Duncan's test. The treatment of mangosteen peel extract concentration level did not affect the protein content, fat content, and organoleptic assessment of chicken eggs. Meanwhile, storage time had a very significant effect (P <0.01) on the protein content and fat content of chicken eggs. The protein content of chicken eggs in the treatment with a mangosteen peel concentration level ranged from 8.43% to 8.58%. The highest protein content was obtained on the 4th day of storage, namely 8.76%. The fat content of chicken eggs ranged from 4.33 to 4.51%. The lowest fat content was obtained on the 4-day storage treatment, namely 4.04%. Soaking chicken eggs in mangosteen peel extract and egg storage for up to 4 weeks did not have a significant effect on the organoleptic properties of chicken eggs.

Abstract

This community service program was carried out as a form of university contribution in helping farmers in Subak Taman, Taman Village, Abiansemal District, Badung Regency, Bali, in increasing rice productivity while tackling plant disease problems, especially those caused by soil pathogens. This activity focused on training and mentoring in making compost enriched with Trichoderma sp., a biological agent proven effective in controlling plant diseases such as root rot and blast disease in rice. In addition to being a biological agent, Trichoderma is also able to accelerate the decomposition of organic matter, increase soil fertility, and support natural plant growth. This activity began with socialization regarding the benefits and role of Trichoderma in an environmentally friendly agricultural system. Next, technical training on making compost based on agrarian waste enriched with Trichoderma. After that, direct practice of making compost with Subak Taman farmers was carried out. The results of the activity showed enthusiasm and active participation from Subak members. Farmers expressed interest in continuing to use Trichoderma compost because they saw its potential benefits for plant health and production results. The target achieved from the activity is that the partner's knowledge of liquid organic fertilizer production technology has increased from 40% to 80%. The use of trichocompost fertilizer in organic rice farming systems can increase dry grain yields by 4.4% to 17.4%. Trichocompost promotes sustainable agriculture by reducing the need for pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, resulting in reduced environmental contamination and preservation of the soil ecosystem.
