Abstract

This study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in the quality of eggs from chickens raised in closed-house and open-house cages. This study was conducted in Close housed and house cages for Isa Brown strain layer chickens in the Blitar Regency area in May 2024. The materials used in this study were 40 eggs of 68-week-old Isa Brown strain chickens kept in closed houses and open houses. This research was conducted using an experimental quantitative method using an unpaired t-test, which was analyzed using the Microsoft Excel application. The results showed that the egg weights of chickens reared in the closed house and open house were 63.80 g and 59.68 g; the egg index was 79.06 from the closed house cage and 76.19 from the open house cage. The Yolk index was 0.65 from the closed-house cage and 0.74 from the open-house cage. Haugh Unit (HU) 61.90 from the closed house cage and 64.40 from the open house cage. This study concludes that there is a significant difference in the quality of eggs from chickens reared in closed and open houses. The best egg weight and index were found in chickens reared in a closed house. At the same time, the best yolk index and HU were found in eggs from hens reared in open houses.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the determinant factors leading to failure and to explore potential solutions for small-scale quail farmers in Brebes Regency. The research employs a quantitative approach, distributing questionnaires directly to 59 quail farmers in the Brebes region, including both active and inactive participants in quail farming. The questionnaire instrument is designed comprehensively to identify various factors contributing to failure in quail farming enterprises. The survey indicates that quail farmers face several major challenges, including high feed costs, low egg prices, and high quail mortality due to disease. All farmers also experience difficulties in marketing, limited capital, and threats from natural disasters. Lack of knowledge and poor farm management are additional issues, while competition with large-scale farmers makes it difficult for small-scale farmers to survive. Value-added products are considered highly profitable by all respondents. quail farmers in Brebes express a significant need for and strong support of government subsidies for feed costs, marketing assistance, training programs provided by veterinary departments, and the reinforcement of farmer organizations. Additionally, they concur that the adoption of advanced technologies, the enhancement of consumer awareness, the development of value-added products, and the expansion into new markets will contribute to greater efficiency and profitability within their operations.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of substituting native grass with citronella waste on the digestibility of ruminants' dry matter, organic matter, and crude protein. A completely randomized design with 6 (six) treatments and 3 (three) replications is used in this research. The treatments were as follows: P1 = 50% native grass + 0% citronella waste + 50% concentrate; P2 = 40% native grass + 10% citronella waste + 50% concentrate; P3 = 30% native grass + 20% citronella waste + 50% concentrate; P4 = 20% native grass + 30% citronella waste + 50% concentrate; P5 = 10% native grass + 40% citronella waste + 50% concentrate; and P6 = 0% native grass + 50% citronella waste + 50% concentrate.  The results showed that substituting native grass with citronella waste significantly affects (P<0.01) the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, and crude protein. The highest digestibility values were observed in the treatment using 100% native grass, with dry matter digestibility at 52.67%, organic matter at 56.58%, and crude protein at 67.55%. The study concludes that while native grass cannot be entirely replaced by citronella waste, it can substitute up to 50% of the complete feed when native grass availability is limited.

Abstract

Meat handling and processing aim to extend the shelf life of meat and enhance its distinctive flavour, allowing consumers to enjoy processed meat in various forms and flavours. One of the most popular meat products is meatballs. Meatballs are made by mashing meat, adding spices and flour, shaping the mixture into small balls, and boiling them in hot water. The quality of the ingredients used determines the quality of meatballs, particularly the type and quality of the meat, the type of flour, and the ratio of ingredients in the dough. This study aims to determine the effect of the duration of Madura beef on the organoleptic properties of processed meatballs and to identify the duration that results in meatballs with the most favourable properties. The research variables included organoleptic tests, namely smcolourcolor, texture, and taste, with 30 respondents as replicates. The experimental design used was a Completely Randomized Design with four treatments: P1 (meatballs made from meat without ageing), P2 (meatballs made from meat aged for 6 hours), P3 (meatballs made from meat aged for 8 hours), and P4 (meatballs made from meat aged for 10 hours). The results were descriptively tested using hedonic methods. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance. The study showed no significant effect between treatments on smell, colour, texture, and taste in processed meatball products made from Madura beef aged for different durations.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to ascertain how adding fermented tea waste utilizing EM4 to male quail meals affects the weight and proportion of the pancreas and liver. One hundred four-week-old male quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) make up the material. In vivo experimental techniques and a completely randomized design (RAL) were used in the study. Basal feed (T0), basal feed + 2% fermented tea powder waste (T1), basal feed + 2% fermented tea granule waste (T2), and basal + plus 2% fermented tea leaf waste (T3) are the treatments that were put to the test. The weight and proportion of the pancreas and liver are the variables that are being observed. The variance analysis's findings demonstrated that the liver percentage of male quails was not significantly impacted by the addition of fermented tea waste with EM4 to the meal. On the other hand, it significantly affected the male quail's liver weight. T0 is substantially different from T2 and T3, and T1 is significantly different from T2 and T3, according to the results of the Honest Significant Difference (HSD) test on the weight of male quail liver. The variance analysis's findings indicate that the weight and proportion of the pancreas are not significantly impacted by the addition of fermented tea waste in any manner. This study concludes that the supplementation of fermented tea waste (both granules and leaves) in the feed of male quails increases liver weight in male quails.

Abstract

Microbiological analysis of meat is crucial to ensure its safety, quality, and suitability for consumption. As a nutrient-rich medium, beef supports microbial growth, which can impact its quality. This study aimed to characterize the microbiological quality of Bali beef with different aging times. This study used three types of muscles: Longissimus dorsi, Gluteus medius, and Semitendinosus from Bali beef aged ± 3 years and body weight of ± 350 kg. Samples were aged at cold temperatures for 1, 21, and 42 days. A completely randomized design with a 3x3x4 factorial was used in this study. The least Square Means test was applied if the data obtained differed significantly. The research results show that the microbial count in the meat significantly increased during aging for 21 and 42 days. Longer aging periods in this study led to an increase in the microbial count.

Abstract

This study evaluated the addition of turmeric flour (Curcuma domestica) and acidifier in feed on the production Performance of broilers during the starter phase. The materials used in this study were 240 unsexed DOC with an average weight of 40.55±1.69 g/bird. The research method was an experimental trial using a completely randomized design (CRD). There were six treatments and four replications, divided into T0 (commercial feed/basal feed + 0% acidifier + 0% turmeric powder), T1 (basal feed + 0% acidifier + 2.0% turmeric powder), T2 (basal feed + 0.5% acidifier + 1.5% turmeric powder), T3 (basal feed + 1.0% acidifier + 1.0% turmeric powder), T4 (basal feed + 1.5% acidifier + 0.5% turmeric powder), and T5 (basal feed + 2.0% acidifier + 0% turmeric powder). The results showed that the addition of turmeric flour and acidifier in broiler feed during both the starter and finisher phases had a significant effect (p<0.05) on mortality and no significant impact (p>0.05) on feed consumption, weight gain, starter body weight, and FCR. Adding turmeric flour and an acidifier could not increase feed consumption, weight gain, or starter body weight and reduce FCR. However, the addition of turmeric flour and acidifier was able to reduce mortality rates. Further testing related to dosage is needed to achieve the desired results.

Abstract

The study aims to determine the effect of papaya tree trunk substitution (Carica papaya) as roughage on the quality of FH cow milk in Boyolali. This study used 16 lactating FH cows with an average body weight of 431.75 + 50.99 kg (CV = 11.82%) and an average milk production per day of 11.12 + 0.96 liters (CV = 8.61%). The average production period of cows is the 2nd lactation period, 2nd to 5th months. The study used a Completely Randomized Design with four treatments and four replications; feed treatments in dry matter were T0: 30% concentrate, 10% tofu dregs, 60% elephant grass, T1: 30% concentrate, 10% tofu dregs, 40% elephant grass, 20% papaya stems, T2: 30% concentrate, 10% tofu dregs, 20% elephant grass, 40% papaya stems, T3: 30% concentrate, 10% tofu dregs, 0% elephant grass, 60% papaya stems. Parameters of milk quality aspects include milk specific gravity, protein content, fat content, lactose, solid non-fat and total solid. This study showed differences in fat content and total solids between T0, T1, T2 and T3, but there was no treatment effect on milk production, Specific gravity, protein content, lactose and SNF milk. This study concludes that using papaya tree trunks as a substitute for fresh greens can maintain the milk productivity of FH cows. Giving 40% papaya tree trunks combined with 20% elephant grass as a roughage produces the same milk production as providing 60% elephant grass.
