Abstract

The increasing demand for pork has led some farmers to allegedly ignore animal welfare principles, focusing more on achieving high production targets. The purpose of this study was to determine the application of animal welfare standards on pig farms in Sebatu and Taro Village, and see the differences between the two villages. The method used was a survey of farmers, namely 25 farmers in each of the two villages. The data obtained were analysed descriptively and comparatively. The results showed that pig farmers in Sebatu and Taro villages have implemented animal welfare very well 54% and 46%. Comparative analysis found no difference in the application of animal welfare between the sampling villages. It can be concluded that the principles of animal welfare have been fulfilled for pigs in Sebatu and Taro Village. It is recommended that farmers reduce the use of battery cages, and provide enrichment facilities for pigs to express their natural habits.

Abstract

Laying hens are chickens that are raised with the aim of producing eggs with high productivity. In order to maximize the productivity of laying hens, many farmers use a battery cage system. Battery cages actually implement poor welfare due to extreme confinement and restrictions on chicken behavior. This study aims to determine the application of animal welfare on layer farms in two villages with different altitudes. Pering village located in lowland and Puhu village located in highland. The data collection method used a questionnaire by conducting interviews with layer farmers. Data were analysed descriptive quantitatively and Mann Whitney comparison test was conducted to compare data between sampling villages. The results of the analysis showed that there were significant differences in the application of the concept of freedom from discomfort and the application of the concept of freedom to express natural behavior. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the application of the five freedom principles between the two villages. The researcher suggested to the farmers in Puhu village to start trying the free cage method which in principle is more prosperous for the chickens.

Abstract

Increased demand for beef requires optimisation of animal husbandry, which in turn leads to improved management of livestock production. This situation must be balanced with the application of animal welfare principles, where a prosperous livestock situation will support optimal production. Geographical differences are one of the factors that determine the knowledge of farmers and the implementation of animal husbandry management. This study aims to determine the description of the application of animal welfare in Balinese cattle farms in the highlands located in Puhu Village and and lowlands located in Pering Village, Gianyar Regency. An observational design was conducted, data collection was done by directly interviewing Balinese cattle owners with the guidance of a set of questionnaires. Data were tabulated and then analysed qualitatively and presented in tabular form. To differentiate the application of animal welfare in the two research locations, the Mann Whitney test was conducted. The application of animal welfare on Bali cattle farms in the highlands, was in the category of less than 5%, sufficient 50%, and good 45.0%; while in the lowlands, it was in the sufficient category with a percentage of 45.5%, and the good category 54.5%. No significant differences were found in the animal welfare principles in the two sample villages. Farmers are expected to further improve their knowledge and application of animal welfare principles to increase livestock productivity.

Abstract

Demand for beef continues to increase, this creates an opportunity for Bali cattle breeders to increase their production. The decline in cattle production can also be influenced by a lack of public knowledge about livestock management and a lack of knowledge and implementation of animal welfare. The aim of the research is to determine the implementation of animal welfare on Balinese cattle farms in Sebatu Village and Taro Village, Tegallalang District, Gianyar Regency. This research uses an observational method by interviewing cattle breeders directly. The number of respondents was 40 families who were raising cattle in Sebatu Village and Taro Village, Tegallalang District, Gianyar Regency, Bali. The research results show that the implementation of animal welfare in Sebatu Village is in the good category as much as 50% and 50% is very good, while in Taro Village the implementation of animal welfare in the good category is 65% and very good 35%. It can be concluded that the application of animal welfare principles in the two sample villages does not show significant differences. It is recommended to carry out further research regarding the fulfillment of minimum animal welfare standards on Balinese cattle farms throughout Bali

Abstract

Meat demand in Indonesia is mostly supplied by poultry, especially broiler chickens. In order to optimise the supply of broiler chickens, many farmers try to optimise production management to ignore the concept of animal welfare, one of which is by increasing the population in the hope of minimising the movement or activity of the chicken itself so that the energy in the chicken is not used up to move and can be channelled into its growth, this certainly causes violations of the animal welfare aspect itself. This research aims to study the application of animal welfare and its comparison between Puhu and Pering villages. This study used observational method with total sampling, where all broiler farmers in Puhu and Pering villages were recorded. Data collection was done by direct interview guided by an integrated questionnaire on 5 aspects of animal welfare implementation. Data were scored using a Guttman scale and analysed using descriptive qualitative method, and Mann-Whitney test was used to differentiate the application between the two villages. The results of the study found that in Puhu village, 83.3% of farms were in the good category and 16.7% were very good, while in Pering village, 100% of broiler farms were found to apply the concept of animal welfare very well. In the comparison test, it was found that there was a difference in the aspect of fulfilling the principle of freedom from pain or disease, where farmers in Pering village implemented it very well. It can be concluded that there is a very significant difference between the application of animal welfare in broiler chickens in Puhu and Pering villages. It is expected that farmers in Puhu village pay more attention to the health aspects of their livestock so that broiler welfare is more optimal.

Abstract

Pigs are one of the meat-producing livestock commodities that have great potential to be developed because they have useful properties and abilities. Carcass and meat quality in general is influenced by factors before slaughter. Factors before slaughter that influence meat quality include genetics, breed, species, type of livestock, age, gender, feed including hormones, minerals and stress. This research aims to determine the differences in the quality of meat from Balinese pork and landrace pork, which genetically differ in terms of color, smell and consistency. The research design used is an observational design with a cross sectional sampling method because when collecting data the independent and dependent variables are observed together, collected once and at a time. The samples used in this research were 32 samples consisting of 16 samples of meat from Balinese pork and 16 samples of meat from landrace pork, then tested by 6 trained panelists. The research results were then tested using the Kruskal-Wallis test and if the results were significantly different, continue with the Mann Whutney test. The results showed that the color of the two meats showed significantly different colors (P<0.05), while in terms of smell and consistency the results showed no significant difference (P>0.05). It was concluded that Balinese pork and Landrace pork could not be differentiated in terms of smell and consistency, and there were visible differences in terms of color. It is recommended that future researchers who will continue research on meat organoletics carry out research immediately after the pig is slaughtered so that they can get maximum results.

Abstract

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when microorganisms develop resistance to antimicrobial agents, partly due to the misuse or overuse of antibiotics for treatment and disease prevention. The easy accessibility of antibiotic distribution has led livestock feed traders to sell antibiotics without veterinary prescriptions. This study aimed to identify the percentage of feed traders selling antibiotics, the types available, and the proportion of licensed traders in Bangli and Tembuku Districts, Bali. Using a questionnaire-based interview method with descriptive analysis and Chi-Square testing, the findings revealed that 9.5% (10/106) of traders sold antibiotics, while only 0.94% (1/106) possessed a valid veterinary drug license and required prescriptions. The antibiotics sold included Amoxicillin, Enrofloxacin, Lincomycin HCl, Oxytetracycline HCl, Spectinomycin HCl, Ciprofloxacin, Doxycycline Calcium, Erythromycin, Tetracycline HCl, and Tylosin Tartrate.  The results indicate uncontrolled antibiotic circulation in both locations, underscoring the need for stricter regulatory oversight and trader education on licensing requirements and the risks of antibiotic misuse.

Abstract

Wolbachia is a naturally occurring bacterium found in various insects, such as fruit flies, butterflies, and moths. It has been utilized as an innovative strategy to control the spread of dengue fever by releasing Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. This study aimed to assess the public’s understanding of the benefits of Wolbachia-carrying mosquitoes as a dengue control measure. Data were collected through questionnaire-based interviews with residents of Banjar Pande and Banjar Pasekan in Kaba-Kaba Village, Kediri District, Tabanan Regency. Pre-test results revealed that the level of knowledge among Banjar Pande residents was 50%, attitude 45%, and behavior 66%. Meanwhile, in Banjar Pasekan, pre-test scores for knowledge, attitude, and behavior were 47%, 47%, and 60%, respectively. These findings indicate that, prior to educational interventions, community awareness, attitudes, and behavior regarding Wolbachia mosquitoes as a dengue control strategy were at a moderate level. Post-test results demonstrated significant improvements, with the community exhibiting deeper knowledge, increased concern, and greater acceptance of Wolbachia technology. This study concludes that targeted education effectively enhances public awareness and support for Wolbachia as a sustainable dengue prevention approach.

Abstract

Escherichia coli mucoid is a common bacterium that frequently causes digestive diseases in both humans and animals, particularly bali cattle. This study aimed to determine the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of E. coli. The testing was conducted using the Kirby-Bauer method with the disc diffusion technique to evaluate the susceptibility of E. coli to four antibiotics: Streptomycin, Doxycycline, Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole, and Bacitracin. The results showed that the mucoid E. coli was sensitive to doxycycline, showed intermediate sensitivity to streptomycin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and was resistant to bacitracin. The appropriate treatment for diarrhea in Bali cattle caused by mucoid E. coli is doxycycline, as the study indicated that the mucoid E. coli isolates were sensitive to this antibiotic. The use of antibiotics with intermediate sensitivity or those that are resistant is not recommended.
