Abstract

Success in the fish hatchery is influenced by natural feed. One of the natural freshwater feeds that have a high nutritional content and is easy to cultivate is Daphnia magna. The availability of D. magna at any time must be supported by daily feeding. Ulva lactuca macroalgae is one of the ingredients that have the potential to be used as D. magna feed because it has good nutrition and is abundantly available on the coast. This research was conducted for 17 days at the Integrated Laboratory of Madako Tolitoli University. The aim of the study was to determine the population growth of D. magna fed          U. lactuca. D. magna was reared in a 25 x 25 x 30 cm aquarium containing 5 liters of green water and a stocking density of 20 individuals/L. The treatments tried were Treatment A = Without U. lactuca Soak (0 ml/L), Treatment B = U. lactuca Soak (3 ml/L), Treatment C = U. lactuca Soak (5 ml/L). The results showed that the administration of U. lactuca 5 ml/L (804.44 ind/L) had the highest population growth compared to the treatment of 3 ml/L immersion of U. lactuca (597.78 ind/L) and without administration of immersion of U. lactuca (482.22 ind/L). Treatment of U. Lactva 5 ml/L is effective in increasing Growth D. Magna and can be an alternative feed D. Magna whose availability is abundant in the coastal area.Keywords: Daphnia magna; growth; Ulva lactuca

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the statistical parameters of bed load grains in Sungai Kakap Waters, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan Province. Bed load sampling was carried out at seven stations, with five sampling points each. The hydrometer test on the sample was carried out to determine the grain type and size of the bed load, and statistical parameter analysis to determine the mean size, sorting, skewness, and kurtosis. The results showed that the fraction of bed load in the form of sand was 38.54%, silt was 42.11%, and clay was 19.28%. The bed load was dominated by three types namely clay loam, loam, and silt loam. Based on the grain size parameters of the bed load, the mean size (in φ units) is 0.94 - 2.24, with the classification of coarse sand to fine sand. The results also showed that the sorting obtained is poorly sorted, the skewness of the sediment is very fine skewed, and the kurtosis is platykurtic.Keywords: bed load; sorting; skewness; kurtosis

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of organic acid treatments on tenderizing of squid muscle. Squid samples removed head, skin, viscera, and tentacles and cut into square pieces of 4 x4 cm were soaked into the citric and lactic acid solvents (1 and 2%) and kept in a refrigerator (4°C) for 24 h. It was found that organic acid treatments affected the physicochemical properties of squid. While acid application decreased pH values and water holding capacity, its increased cooking loss and free amino acid content. Texture profile parameters and sensory texture scores did not change significantly after acid treatments. The type and concentration of acids were not effective for all parameters except cooking loss.Keywords: Physicochemical; Organic acids; Squid; Texture

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the protein and fiber digestibility of tilapia (O. niloticus) with the addition of gude (C. cajan) flour. The research method used in this study was an experiment using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The treatment used consisted of 4 treatments and 3 replications, namely: Gude Bean Flour 0% (control) (P0), 10% (P1), 20% (P2), and 30% (P3). Parameters measured included protein digestibility, fiber digestibility, absolute weight growth, absolute length growth, specific growth rate (SGR), feed conversion ratio (FCR), feed efficiency, and survival. Data were analyzed between treatments by analysis of variance (Anova) and differences between treatments by Duncan's test. The results showed that the addition of different concentrations of gude bean flour to feed could affect protein digestibility and growth in feed but did not affect fiber digestibility, feed conversion ratio (FCR), feed efficiency (EPP), and life expectancy of tilapia. The addition of 10% gude flour concentration gave the best results with an absolute weight growth value of 19.08 g, and an absolute length of 5.60 cm even though it had the same level of protein digestibility as the control treatment

Abstract

Evaluation of human resource development and institutional aspects is a process of providing information that can be used as a consideration to improve capabilities and be able to influence the implementation of community empowerment programs. The aimed of this study was to evaluate the capacity of human resources, institutions, and aquaculture marketing systems in the minapolitan area of Merangin Regency. The method of data collection was carried out using a structured interview method with the help of a questionnaire to 493 fish cultivating households (CH). Data were analyzed by multidimensional scaling and leverage analysis using Rapfish software. The results showed that the CH of catfish obtained the highest average index of 55.58, followed by the CH of gouramy at 53.60, the CH of tilapia at 54.57 and the CH of catfish obtained an average index of 54.71. This illustrates that the performance of catfish farmers in aquaculture production technology and management systems is better than the performance of other fish farmers. The results of the evaluation of all aspects of the capacity of human resources, institutions, and aquaculture marketing systems indicate that there are 3 aspects that are in the range of 50.10-75.00 with moderately sustainable status, namely; human resource development aspect with an average index value (AIV) of 68.64, technology aspect with an AIV of 52.98, and natural resources aspect with an AIV of 65.22. Meanwhile, there are 2 aspects that are in the range of 25.10-50.00 with less sustainable status, namely the institutional aspect with an AIV of 48.23 and the economic aspect with an AIV of 48.62.Keywords: Aquaculture; Institutional; Marketing; Sustainability

Abstract

Microalgae are cultured as natural feed for the cultivation of mollusks, crustaceans (early larval stages), and zooplankton. Diatoms are phytoplankton groups commonly used as feed, one of which is Chaetoceros muelleri. This study aims to identify the optimal nitrate concentrations and light level (irradiance) for the growth rate of C. muelleri. Culture was placed in nitrate 1,330; 5,305; and 27,030 mg/L (N1, N2, N3, respectively); and light 50, 100, and 150 µmol/m2/s, with three replications for each treatment. The response variable observed was the growth rate of C. muelleri and nitrate uptake. Each nitrate treatment resulted in a significant difference in the growth rate of C. muelleri (LSD, p < 0.01). The N3 treatment produced the highest growth rate (average 0,188-0,193 cells/day), while N1 produced the lowest specific growth rate (average 0,149-0,157 /day). In light treatment, a significant difference was only seen in the light levelof 150 µmol/m2/s (LSD, p < 0.05) which produced the highest growth rate (average 0.157-0.193 cells/day), especially in the nitrate N1 and N2. Meanwhile based on the significance test, the interaction between nitrate and light treatment was not significant.Keywords: Chaetoceros muelleri; Growth rate; Irradiance; Nitrate

Abstract

Benoa Bay is part of the waters of Bali which contributes very positively to the Balinese people, especially to the surrounding community, especially in maintaining the stability of various ecosystems and hydrology as well as its contribution in providing protection, economic, and socio-cultural services for the local community. Proper management of the Benoa Bay area will be able to minimize the risks that will occur. Therefore, good management of coastal and marine areas is needed through an integrated management program that is supported by the availability of objective, accurate, and up-to-date information sources. This study was carried out by collecting literature from relevant research on reclamation in Benoa Bay. The results of the study found that PT. Tirta Wahana Bali International (PT. TWBI) as the holder of the Benoa Bay Utilization and Development permit will develop the Benoa Bay area including (1) Pudut Island Restoration; (2) Firsherman's Cove; (3) Botanical Garden, meanwhile the Benoa Bay area is a center of biodiversity and there is a high and complete diversity of ecosystems, namely; Ecosystems of mangroves,coral reefs,seagrass beds, andtidal flats. This illustrates that integrated management must and immediately be carried out to assist in the formulation of policies and planning for the management of coastal and marine areas that are more effective and targeted so that there are no mistakes in policy making that lead to social conflicts.Keywords: Benoa Bay, ecosystem diversity, integrated program, policy

Abstract

Sea cucumber (Holothuria scabra) contains lots of collagen and vitamin E for the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. H. scabra have high economic value. The price in the local market is IDR 400,000-1,200,000/kg and internationally it is IDR 500,000-IDR 5,000,000/kg dry weight. The level of exploitation is high, and it is suspected that there has been overfishing in several areas. Cultivation efforts need to be done to maintain the population in nature. The natural rate of gonad maturation and spawning in H. scabra broodstock is relatively slow, so efforts are needed to speed it up, among other things by administering hormones. This study aimed to stimulate (1) gonad maturation and (2) H. scabra spawning. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 3 replications in 2 stages using broodstock measuring 250-350 g/head. Stage 1: (1) Treatment A: without immersing the H. scabra in hormone solution, (2) Treatment B: immersing the H. scabra in the Oodev®/Oocyte developer dose of 1 mL/kg weight, and (3) Treatment C: soaking sea cucumber broodstock in Oodev® dose of 2 mL/kg weight. Stage 2: (1) without immersion of the broodstock in hormone solution, (2) immersion of the broodstock in Ovaprim® doses of 1 mL/kg weight. The data obtained were analyzed by analysis of variance. The results showed that immersion of H. scabra broodstock in Oodev® and ovaprim® was not successful in stimulating gonad maturation and spawning in H. scabra broodstock. The spawning behavior of sea cucumbers that were successfully observed included body movements such as writhing, coiling like a ball, sticking to walls, partially erecting their bodies, actively crawling, and being more active at night.Keywords: Gonad; Holothuria scabra; Oodev®; Ovaprim®; Spawning; Sea cucumber.
