Abstract

This study aims to observe the changes in the characteristics of vaginal mucus to diagnose early pregnancy in dairy cattle. The characteristics of vaginal mucus include pH value, consistency, volume, and Vaginal Electrical Resistance (VER) value to diagnose early pregnancy using a Draminski Estrous Detector. The sample used that collected in this research was 52 dairy cattle. The research method consists of taking samples and observing the characteristics of the mucus. Data analysis includes normality test, T-test and Pearson correlation. The results showed that the mucus volume of pregnant cattle was less (1.280.356 mL) than that of non-pregnant cattle (2.210.437 mL), the pH value in pregnant cattle tended to be acidic, while non-pregnant cattle were classified as neutral, and there were differences in the consistency of mucus in pregnant cattle (4.00.0), while non-pregnant cows tended to be liquid (2.60.204). The volume and consistency of vaginal mucus in pregnant and non-pregnant cattle were significantly different (P0.05). The VER value of pregnant cattle was higher (36563.2 ohms) than non-pregnant cattle (19055.3 ohms). The VER value was highly correlated (r= 0.819) with the pregnancy status of dairy cattle. Thus, VER can be used as an accurate indicator to determine the status of early pregnancy in dairy cattle.

Abstract

Taro (Colocasia esculenta) as a leading commodity in Bogor Regency faces challenges in technology adoption, price fluctuations, and post-harvest infrastructure, so a participatory approach such as a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) is needed to formulate innovative and applicable solutions. This FGD activity aims to identify challenges, opportunities, and strategic solutions for taro farmers in Bogor Regency. Bogor taro is one of the leading commodities with high economic potential, both for the local market and for export. However, farmers face various challenges, such as low adoption of modern technology, price fluctuations, limited access to capital, weak farmer group organizations, and pest and disease attacks. The FGD was carried out in several stages, namely preparation, group discussion, data analysis, and follow-up. The FGD involved 29 participants consisting of taro farmers with diverse profiles based on age, education, farming experience, and land area. The results of the FGD showed several opportunities, such as the development of taro-based processed products, organic farming practices, and export potential. The proposed strategic solutions included technical training to increase productivity, diversification of processed products, government policy support, and strengthening the role of women and youth in farming. The results of this activity are expected to serve as a guide for stakeholders to promote the sustainability and development of the taro farming sector in Bogor Regency.
