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.

ABSTRACT The productivity level of dairy cattle needs to be continuously monitored in order to balance the increasing consumption of milk and dairy products by the Indonesian people. Therefore, efforts to increase dairy cattle productivity are necessary. The purpose of this study was to determine several factors that influence the level of milk production in Dairy Village, Subang Regency, West Java. The variables analyzed were milk production level (Y), cow age (X1), cow body weight (X2), and lactation period (X3). Data in this study were obtained through purposive sampling by selecting 50 cows that had reached a weight above 300 kg. Data analysis was carried out descriptively and quantitatively using statistical methods of multiple linear regression analysis. The results of the study showed that cow age (X1) and cow body weight (X2) partially affect the level of milk production. This is indicated by the probability values ​​of X1 and X2 which are smaller than 0.05. Simultaneously, the results of the F test (ANOVA) showed that the variables of cow age (X1), cow body weight (X2), and lactation period (X3) have a significant influence on the level of milk production (Y). Based on the results of the coefficient of determination test, the independent variable's influence on the dependent variable was 18.4%. 81.6% of the dependent variable's milk production value was explained by variables not examined.

Rumput benggala (Panicum maximum) merupakan hijauan pakan unggul di wilayah tropis yang memerlukan analisis molekuler untuk mendukung program pemuliaan dan identifikasi genetik. Tahap awal yang krusial dalam analisis tersebut adalah ekstraksi DNA genom berkualitas tinggi yang bebas dari kontaminan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas metode ekstraksi DNA menggunakan DNA Mini Kit for Plant GP 100 (Geneaid) dengan modifikasi prosedur pada tiga kultivar rumput benggala (Panicum maximum cv. Purple Guinea, cv. Common, dan cv. Gatton). Modifikasi metode yang diterapkan meliputi stabilisasi sampel melalui penyimpanan pada suhu dingin selama 24 jam sebelum penggerusan dan optimasi pengeringan GD column melalui sentrifugasi pada kecepatan tinggi (13.000 rpm selama 6 menit). Peubah yang diamati adalah konsentrasi dan kemurnian DNA menggunakan spektrofotometer NanoDrop pada panjang gelombang 260 nm dan 280 nm. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat variasi efisiensi ekstraksi antarkultivar. Kultivar Purple Guinea menghasilkan rata-rata konsentrasi DNA tertinggi sebesar 92,15 ng/µL dengan indeks kemurnian (A260/A280) 1,87. Kultivar Gatton menghasilkan konsentrasi sebesar 83,78 ng/µL dengan nilai kemurnian tertinggi dan paling konsisten, yaitu 1,90. Sementara itu, kultivar Common menghasilkan konsentrasi terendah sebesar 42,10 ng/µL dengan rata-rata kemurnian 1,82, serta menunjukkan variabilitas kualitas antarsampel yang lebih lebar. Modifikasi metode ekstraksi menggunakan Mini Kit terbukti efektif menghasilkan DNA berkualitas tinggi yang memenuhi standar untuk aplikasi molekuler lanjutan, di mana kultivar Purple Guinea dan Gatton menunjukkan hasil purifikasi terbaik. ABSTRACT Benggala or Guinea grass (Panicum maximum) is a superior forage crop in tropical regions that requires molecular analysis to support breeding and genetic identification programs. A crucial initial step in this analysis is the extraction of high-quality genomic DNA free of contaminants. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a DNA extraction method using the DNA Mini Kit for Plant GP 100 (Geneaid) with procedural modifications on three guinea grass cultivars (Panicum maximum cv. Purple Guinea, cv. Common, and cv. Gatton). The modifications applied included sample stabilization through cold storage for 24 hours prior to grinding and optimization of GD column drying via high-speed centrifugation (13,000 rpm for 6 minutes). The parameters observed were DNA concentration and purity using a NanoDrop spectrophotometer at wavelengths of 260 nm and 280 nm. The results showed variations in extraction efficiency among cultivars. The Purple Guinea cultivar yielded the highest average DNA concentration at 92.15 ng/µL with a purity index (A260/A280) of 1.87. The Gatton cultivar produced a concentration of 83.78 ng/µL with the highest and most consistent purity value of 1.90. Meanwhile, the Common cultivar produced the lowest concentration at 42.10 ng/µL with an average purity of 1.82, displaying wider quality variability among samples. The modified mini kit extraction method proved effective in generating high-quality DNA that meets the standards for advanced molecular applications, with Purple Guinea and Gatton cultivars demonstrating the best purification results.

Abstract

Keterbatasan ketersediaan dan tingginya harga pakan komersial menjadi kendala utama dalam usaha budidaya kelinci lepas sapi. Pemanfaatan susu bubuk afkir sebagai sumber nutrisi alternatif terhambat oleh kandungan laktosa yang dapat memicu diare. Suplementasi tepung temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) berpotensi memitigasi kendala tersebut melalui aktivitas zat aktif kurkuminoid sebagai stimulan pencernaan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi tingkat konsumsi ransum dan efisiensi pemanfaatan protein pada kelinci lepas sapih yang diberi pakan berbasis susu bubuk afkir dengan suplementasi tepung temulawak. Penelitian eksperimental ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 3 perlakuan dan 6 ulangan menggunakan 18 ekor kelinci New Zealand White usia 8 minggu. Perlakuan yang diuji terdiri atas tingkat substitusi susu bubuk afkir yang mengandung temulawak yaitu P0 (0%), P1 (5%), dan P2 (10%). Peubah yang diamati mencakup konsumsi ransum harian dan efisiensi protein ransum. Data dianalisis menggunakan ANOVA dan dilanjutkan dengan Uji Wilayah Berganda Duncan. Hasil analisis sidik ragam menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan berpengaruh sangat nyata (P<0,01) terhadap konsumsi ransum, tetapi berpengaruh tidak nyata (P>0,05) terhadap efisiensi protein ransum. Rataan konsumsi ransum tertinggi dicapai oleh perlakuan P2 (96,10±12,66 g/ekor/hari) yang berbeda nyata lebih tinggi dibandingkan P1 (76,70±7,84 g/ekor/hari) dan P0 (73,50±13,43 g/ekor/hari). Nilai efisiensi protein ransum bergerak seragam secara statistik pada kisaran 0,97 hingga 1,10. Kombinasi susu bubuk afkir dan tepung temulawak dalam ransum efektif meningkatkan palatabilitas dan volume konsumsi pakan tanpa menurunkan efisiensi pemanfaatan protein internal kelinci, dengan tingkat penggunaan paling optimal secara numerik sebesar 5%. ABSTRACT Limited availability and high commercial feed prices are primary constraints in weaning rabbit production. Utilizing rejected milk powder as an alternative nutritional source is limited by its lactose content, which potentially triggers diarrhea. Dietary supplementation of temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) can mitigate this issue through the digestive stimulant activity of curcuminoid compounds. This study aimed to evaluate feed consumption and protein efficiency of weaning rabbits fed rejected milk powder-based rations supplemented with temulawak powder. This experimental study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 6 replications, utilizing 18 eight-week-old New Zealand White rabbits. The tested treatments included substitution levels of rejected milk powder containing temulawak: P0 (0%), P1 (5%), and P2 (10%). Observed parameters included daily feed consumption and ration protein efficiency. Data were analyzed using ANOVA followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test. The analysis of variance showed that the treatments significantly affected (P<0.01) feed consumption but had no significant effect (P>0.05) on ration protein efficiency. The highest average feed consumption was achieved by the P2 treatment (96.10±12.66 g/head/day), which was significantly higher than P1 (76.70±7.84 g/head/day) and P0 (73.50±13.43 g/head/day). The ration protein efficiency values remained statistically uniform, ranging from 0.97 to 1.10. The combination of rejected milk powder and temulawak powder in the ration effectively increases palatability and feed intake without reducing the internal protein efficiency of rabbits, with the numerically most optimal level being 5%.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh penambahan fermentasi tepung daun murbei (Morus alba L) dalam ransum terhadap persentase karkas, persentase organ dalam dan lemak abdominal broiler. Penelitian menggunakan 200 ekor DOC broiler strain Mabar tanpa pemisahan jenis kelamin yang dipelihara selama empat minggu. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan empat perlakuan dan lima ulangan, yaitu P0 (tanpa fermentasi tepung daun murbei), P1 (5% fermentasi tepung daun murbei), P2(10% fermentasi tepung daun murbei), P3(15% fermentasi tepung daun murbei). Parameter yang diamati meliputi bobot akhir, persentase karkas, persentase lemak abdominal, persentase bobot hari, jantung dan limpa. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis ragam (ANOVA) dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan taraf 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan fermentasi tepung daun murbei memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap bobot akhir dan persentase karkas broiler (P<0,05), serta cenderung menurunkan akumulasi lemak abdominal. Perlakuan P2 menghasilkan bobot akhir tertinggi dan keseimbangan performa produksi terbaik, sedangkan persentase karkas tertinggi diperoleh pada perlakuan P3. Meskipun P3 tertinggi secara persentase, P2 tetap yang terbaik secara bobot absolut. Penambahan fermentasi tepung daun murbei hingga level 15% tidak memberikan pengaruh negatif terhadap bobot hati, jantung dan limpa, yang menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan tersebut aman terhadap fungsi fisiologis organ dalam. Disimpulkan bahwa fermentasi tepung daun murbei berpotensi digunakan sebagai bahan pakan fungsional dalam ransum ayam broiler dengan level penambahan optimal sebesar 10%. ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary inclusion of fermented mulberry leaf meal (Morus alba L.) on production performance, carcass quality, and internal organ responses of broiler chickens. A total of 200 day-old chicks (DOC) of the Mabar strain, without sex differentiation, were reared for four weeks. The experiment was arranged in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of four treatments and five replications: P0 (diet without fermented mulberry leaf meal), P1 (5% fermented mulberry leaf meal), P2 (10% fermented mulberry leaf meal), and P3 (15% fermented mulberry leaf meal). The observed parameters included final body weight, carcass percentage, abdominal fat percentage, and the relative weights of the liver, heart, and spleen. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test at a 5% significance level. The results showed that dietary inclusion of fermented mulberry leaf meal significantly affected the final body weight and carcass percentage of broilers (P<0.05) and tended to reduce abdominal fat accumulation. Treatment P2 resulted in the highest final body weight and the best overall production performance, whereas the highest carcass percentage was observed in treatment P3. Although P3 produced the highest carcass percentage, P2 remained superior in terms of absolute body weight and overall biological performance. The inclusion of fermented mulberry leaf meal up to a level of 15% had no adverse effects on the relative weights of the liver, heart, and spleen, indicating that the treatment was safe for the physiological functions of internal organs. It can be concluded that fermented mulberry leaf meal has the potential to be used as a functional feed ingredient in broiler diets, with an optimal inclusion level of 10%.
