Abstract

This study aimed to formulate nanoparticles of ethanol extract of Indigofera sp. leaves using the ionic gelation method combined with freeze-drying, and to evaluate their potential as a feed supplement for Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) chickens. Indigofera leaves are known to be rich in bioactive compounds, particularly tannins and flavonoids, which act as natural antioxidants that can enhance poultry growth performance and health. However, their limited stability and bioavailability reduce their effectiveness when directly applied in the diet. The encapsulation process was carried out with two treatments: P1 = without sonication and centrifugation, and P2 = with sonication but without centrifugation. The best results were obtained with sonication and without centrifugation, which produced a fine powder without clumping.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze quality control in layer chicken production using Statistical Quality Control (SQC) and the Fishbone Diagram approach at one of CV Layer Farm’s partners in South Lampung. Primary data were collected through direct observation, interviews, and environmental measurements, while secondary data consisted of daily production records and feed consumption over an 11 week period. The results show an average Hen Day Production (HDP) of 90.91 %, with a Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) of 2.22 and mortality rate of 1.2 %. However, House 3 ( 89,65 % ) did not reach the optimal standard of 92,7 %, with the lowest fluctuation occurring in week 27 (84.54%). Fishbone analysis identified root causes such as environmental factors (heat stress at 33°C), managerial issues (absence of written SOPs and reliance on manual recording), and limited monitoring facilities. Economically, the farm remains efficient with a positive R/C ratio, though improving HDP in House 3 could further enhance profitability. Recommended corrective actions include digitalizing recording systems, mitigating heat stress through housing modifications, and standardizing SOPs for farm management.This study highlights that applying SQC and Fishbone analysis is effective in detecting production variability and provides strategic recommendations to improve quality, efficiency, and sustainability in layer chicken farming.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) maggot meal substitution in commercial feed on the performance of starter phase Balitbangtan Superior Native Chicken (KUB) aged 1–5 weeks. The research method used was experimental with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of 4 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments included P0 (control without maggot meal), P1 (1% maggot meal), P2 (2% maggot meal), and P3 (3% maggot meal). The parameters observed were feed intake, average daily gain (ADG), and Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR). The results showed that the highest average ADG was found in P3 (289.23 g) and the lowest in P1 (232.47 g). Average feed intake from 654.54 to 664.99 g, while the most efficient FCR value was found in P3 (2.29). However, statistical analysis revealed that the addition of maggot meal up to 3% did not have a significant effect ($P>0.05$) on all observed performance parameters. The conclusion of this study is that the use of BSF maggot meal as a substitute for Multifeed BR 1-7 RT commercial feed at levels of 1–3% can maintain the performance of KUB chickens but has not been able to significantly increase growth.
