Abstract

Daun kelor (Moringa oleifera) dan kunyit (Curcuma domestica) diketahui mengandung beragam senyawa bioaktif yang berfungsi sebagai antioksidan, antimikroba, dan penunjang metabolisme sehingga berpotensi dimanfaatkan sebagai feed additive alami untuk meningkatkan metabolisme nutrien dan performa puyuh (Coturnix coturnix japonica). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh suplementasi tepung daun kelor dan tepung kunyit dalam ransum terhadap persentase karkas dan organ dalam burung puyuh. Sebanyak 180 ekor puyuh berumur enam belas minggu digunakan dalam penelitian ini yang dilaksanakan menggunakan metode feeding trial. Rancangan penelitian yang digunakan adalah rancangan acak lengkap faktorial (RALF) 2x3, di mana faktor pertama adalah level tepung daun kelor (0% dan 3%), dan faktor kedua adalah level tepung kunyit (0%, 0,5%, dan 1%), masing-masing dengan tiga ulangan. Variabel yang diamati meliputi persentase karkas, hati, jantung, dan gizzard. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kombinasi tepung daun kelor 3% dan tepung kunyit 1% memberikan pengaruh signifikan (p<0,05) dalam meningkatkan persentase karkas dan organ dalam. Perlakuan tersebut menghasilkan persentase karkas tertinggi sebesar 79,77%, dengan persentase hati 5,97%, jantung 0,63% dan gizzard 4,83%, yang seluruhnya masih berada dalam kisaran fisiologis normal. Disimpulkan bahwa suplementasi tepung daun kelor 3% dan tepung kunyit 1% dapat digunakan sebagai feed additive alami untuk meningkatkan persentase karkas puyuh, dengan tetap memperhatikan respon fisiologis organ dalam. ABSTRACT Moringa oleifera leaves and turmeric (Curcuma domestica) are known to contain various bioactive compounds that function as antioxidants, antimicrobials, and metabolic enhancers, thus potentially being used as natural feed additives to improve nutrient metabolism and performance of quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of moringa leaf meal and turmeric meal supplementation in rations on the percentage of carcass and internal organs of quail. A total of 180 sixteen-week-old quail were used in this study, which was conducted using the feeding trial method. The study design used was a 2x3 factorial completely randomized design (CRBD), where the first factor was the level of moringa leaf meal (0% and 3%), and the second factor was the level of turmeric meal (0%, 0.5%, and 1%), each with three replications. The observed variables included carcass, liver, heart, and gizzard percentages. The results showed that the combination of 3% moringa leaf flour and 1% turmeric flour had a significant effect (p<0.05) in increasing the carcass and internal organ percentages. This treatment resulted in the highest carcass percentage of 79.77%, with liver percentages of 5.97%, heart 0.63%, and gizzard 4.83%, all of which were still within the normal physiological range. It was concluded that supplementation with 3% moringa leaf flour and 1% turmeric flour can be used as a natural feed additive to increase the carcass percentage of quail, while still considering the physiological response of internal organs.

Abstract

This review synthesizes the impacts of heat stress and assesses viable mitigation strategies for smallholder dairy farms in Indonesia. In such systems, heat stress can be detected early through observable physiological and behavioral alterations. Clinical indicators such as an increased respiratory rate (exceeding 60 breaths per minute), reduced feed intake, and restless behavior serve as early warning signs that are recognizable by farmers. The effects of heat stress are complex and detrimental, including reductions in milk production by 10–20% or more, increased reproductive disorders with conception rates below 20%, as well as heightened disease susceptibility and elevated production costs. Mitigation strategies for heat stress in smallholder dairy systems encompass three principal aspects: (1) housing and environmental management via barn orientation, roof design and height, natural ventilation, suitable building materials, and shade vegetation as passive cooling methods; (2) feed and water management through increased dietary energy density and provision of drinking water ad libitum; and (3) daily activity management by scheduling feeding and milking during cooler periods. Building upon these approaches, pragmatic and cost-effective strategies are vital for maintaining productivity in smallholder dairy systems, while targeted empowerment of farmers through practical support can enhance production by up to 16% and markedly diminish the impacts of heat stress. According to this review, context-specific mitigation of heat stress, supported by farmer empowerment and practical assistance, is crucial for ensuring sustained productivity and resilience in smallholder dairy farming systems within tropical regions.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor yang dipertimbangkan pemotong dalam pemanfaatan Rumah Potong Hewan Unggas (RPH-U) di Kota Serang. Meskipun pemerintah telah membangun RPH-U sebelumnya sebagai upaya menjamin produk daging yang halal, aman, utuh, dan sehat (HAUS), tingkat pemanfaatan fasilitas ini masih rendah. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan kuantitatif melalui survei terhadap 43 dari 48 pemotong ayam di enam kecamatan di Kota Serang. Data dianalisis menggunakan Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa dari lima variabel independen yang diuji (kondisi RPH-U, jaminan keamanan, jaminan produk HAUS, lokasi, dan biaya), hanya kondisi RPH-U dan biaya yang berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap pemanfaatan RPH-U (p < 0,1). Variabel lokasi dan jaminan keamanan menunjukkan hubungan positif tetapi tidak signifikan, sedangkan jaminan produk HAUS memiliki pengaruh paling rendah. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa aspek fisik dan keterjangkauan biaya lebih menjadi pertimbangan dibandingkan dengan aspek teknis atau jangka panjang seperti keamanan kerja dan mutu produk. Rendahnya pengaruh aspek keamanan dan mutu diduga disebabkan oleh masih terbatasnya pengetahuan teknis dan belum dirasakannya insentif ekonomi oleh para pemotong. Oleh karena itu, selain peningkatan infrastruktur, diperlukan intervensi berbasis edukasi dan sosialisasi berkelanjutan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan pemanfaatan RPH-U secara optimal. ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze the factors considered by slaughterers in the utilization of Poultry Slaughterhouses (RPH-U) in Serang City. Although the government has previously built RPH-U as an effort to ensure Halal (Halal), Aman (Safe), Utuh (Intact), and Sehat (Healthy) (HAUS) meat products, the utilization rate of these facilities remains low. The study was conducted using a quantitative approach through a survey of 43 out of 48 chicken slaughterers in six districts in Serang City. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results showed that out of the five independent variables tested (poultry slaughterhouses conditions, safety guarantees, HAUS product guarantees, location, and cost), only poultry slaughterhouses conditions and cost had a significant impact of poultry slaughterhouses utilization (p < 0.1). The location and safety guarantee variables showed a positive but insignificant relationship, while the HAUS product guarantee had the lowest influence. These findings indicate that physical aspects and cost affordability are more important considerations than technical or long-term aspects such as workplace safety and product quality. The low influence of safety and quality aspects is likely due to limited technical knowledge and the lack of perceived economic incentives among slaughterers. Therefore, in addition to infrastructure improvements, sustained educational and awareness-raising interventions are needed to enhance understanding and optimize the utilization of poultry slaughterhouses.
