Abstract

This community service aimed to assist farmers in improving their knowledge and quality of feed by producing fermented complete feed (FCF). The community service occurred from June to November 2019 in the Karya Manunggal livestock group in Donokerto, Turi, Sleman. The activities included observing the initial conditions of the group, providing counseling, conducting FCF production training, evaluating the products, and utilizing the trained products for the livestock. The results of the activities indicated an increase in farmers' knowledge about manufacturing concentrate and feed supplements, feed preservation technology, and FCF, each by 80%, 73%, and 95%, respectively. Farmers successfully produced FCF with good quality, as indicated by the acidic pH of 4.31. The palatability of FCF was also excellent for livestock. The average daily gain in sheep with FCF supplementation was 0.156 grams/head/day, while the farmers' feed supplementation was 0.113 grams/head/day. The community service activities in the Karya Manunggal livestock group conclude the improvement of farmers' knowledge and skills in terms of livestock nutritional needs, balanced feed formulation, and the utilization of fermentation technology in feed production. The success of these activities is also evident in the increased effectiveness of feed and cost efficiency following the implementation of FCF.

Abstract

The pellets were produced from peanut straw (PTS), water spinach (WSP), Leucaena leucocephala leaves (LLL), Gliricidia sepium leaves (GSL), and Calliandra calothyrsus leaves (CCL). Each feedstuff was pelletized with the addition of 8% tapioca flour as a binder. The pellets were tested for chemical characteristics, physical appearance, and physical characteristics, which included the pellet length, density, stacking density, stacking compaction density, modulus of uniformity, modulus of fineness, pellet durability index (PDI), and water absorption. The data were analysed descriptively. The results of this research revealed that the nutritional composition of the pellets followed that of the raw feedstuff. All the pellets varied in color depending on the color of the raw material and had a medium texture. Each pellet had specific physical characteristics. The colors of PTS, LLL, GSL, and CCL were dark green, whereas WSP was dark brown. All single pellets had a medium texture, with PDI values above 97% and MF values greater than 4.1, which classified them into the coarse group. In terms of water absorption, the CCL had the longest absorption time, approximately 75.17 minutes, whereas the other pellets had absorption times less than 30 minutes. As a result, although a single feed ingredient can be produced as pellets, the physical and chemical qualities depend on the origin of the ingredient.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) supplementation on the productivity, blood serum metabolites, and meat cholesterol levels of Pekin ducks (Anas platyrhynchos). The ducks were supplemented with spirulina at levels of 0%, 2%, and 4% for 42 days, with each treatment group consisting of five replicates. The basal diet used was a commercial feed. The results indicated that spirulina supplementation at 2% and 4% tended to decrease feed intake (P=0.065) but significantly improved the feed conversion ratio compared to the control group (P<0.05). A 4% spirulina dosage significantly reduced meat cholesterol levels in Peking ducks compared to the control and 2% dosage (P<0.05). However, spirulina supplementation did not result in significant changes in final body weight, carcass and non-carcass characteristics, internal organ weights, digestive tract length, or blood serum metabolite levels (P>0.05). In conclusion, spirulina supplementation at a 4% dosage can reduce meat cholesterol levels and improve productivity without affecting blood serum metabolite levels, carcass and non-carcass characteristics, or the weight and length of the digestive organs in Pekin ducks
