Abstract

The livestock sector is one of the priority sectors as the foundation of the domestic economy. Livestock products that continue to experience increased demand are meat. JOPER chickens are a superior breed that can produce high meat productivity. The experimental design used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 3 replications. The results of the study showed the average individual weight in the different probiotic treatment categories during the third and fifth weeks, along with the average weight gain and standard deviation. The results of the study showed that chickens receiving probiotics had higher body weights compared to the control group that did not receive probiotic treatment. Although there was an increase in weight gain, there was no significant difference between the treatment and control groups. This indicates that probiotics improve feed efficiency without affecting the amount of feed consumed. Sektor peternakan merupakan salah satu sektor prioritas sebagai pondasi perekonomian dalam negeri. Produk peternakan yang terus mengalami peningkatan permintaan adalah daging. Ayam JOPER merupakan suatu ras unggulan yang dapat menghasilkan produktivitas daging yang tinggi. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 4 perlakuan dan 3 ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan berat rata-rata individu dalam kategori pemberian probiotik yang berbeda selama minggu ketiga dan kelima, bersama dengan kenaikan berat badan rata-rata dan standar deviasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ayam yang menerima probiotik memiliki bobot badan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol yang tidak mendapatkan perlakuan probiotik. Meskipun terdapat peningkatan pada pertambahan berat badan, tidak menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelompok perlakuan dan kontrol. Ini menunjukkan bahwa probiotik meningkatkan efisiensi penggunaan pakan tanpa mempengaruhi jumlah pakan yang dikonsumsi

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to measure the effect of flour and chicken feet on the water quality, protein, and organoleptic properties of leftover chicken meatballs. This study was conducted using a completely randomised design (CRD) at the Industrial Engineering and Microbiology Laboratory of TribhuwanaTunggadewi University, Malang. In detail, the treatments were given as P0 (100 percent chicken meat without chicken feet flour), P1 (95 percent chicken meat and 5 percent chicken feet flour), P2 (90 percent chicken meat and 10 percent chicken feet flour), and P3 (85percent chicken meat and 15 percent chicken feet flour). The data obtained were tested organoleptic using the ChiSquare (X²) approach and analysis of variance (ANOVA) to determine the relationship between variables. Then the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test was carried out at the 5% level. The results showed that the addition of chicken feet flour to meatballs did not change their water content. The addition of chicken feet flour had a major impact on protein content; however, the best treatment in P3 (85% chicken meat and 15% chicken feet flour) had the highest protein value (0.63).In contrast, the P0 treatment containing only chicken meat had the lowest protein value (0.31). According to the research findings, the addition of chicken feet flour increased the protein content of leftover laying hen meatballs, with P3 as the ideal amount. This research opens up opportunities for the development of healthier and more nutritious meatball products, as well as optimizing the use of raw materials that are often considered waste, such as chicken feetTujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengukur pengaruh tepung ceker ayam dan daging ayam petelurafkir terhadap kualitas air, protein, dan organoleptik bakso ayam petelur afkir. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) di Laboratorium Rekayaasa Proses Industri Universitas Tribhuwana Tunggadewi Malang. Perlakuan terdiri dari 4 yaituP0 (100 persen daging ayam tanpa tepung ceker), P1 (95 persen daging ayam dan 5 persen tepung ceker), P2 (90 persen daging ayam dan 10 persen tepung ceker), dan P3 (85 persen daging ayam dan 15 persen tepung ceker). Data yang diperoleh dilakukan uji organoleptik dengan menggunakan pendekatan Chi- Square (X2) dan analisis variansi (ANOVA) untuk mengetahui hubungan antar variabel.Bila terdapat perbedaan dilanjutkan Uji Beda Nyata Terkecil (BNT) pada taraf 5% . Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan tepung ceker ayam ke dalam bakso tidak berpengaruh terhadap kadar air. Penambahan tepung ceker ayam berpengaruh terhadap kadar protein dimana perlakuan P3 (15% tepung ceker ayam dan 85% daging ayam ) menghasilkan nilai protein tertinggi (0,63). Penambahan tepung ceker ayam meningkatkan kadar protein bakso ayam petelur afkir, dengan P3 sebagai jumlah ideal. Penelitian ini membuka peluang untuk pengembangan produk bakso yang lebih sehat dan bernilai gizi tinggi, serta mengoptimalkan pemanfaatan bahan baku yang sering dianggap sampah, seperti ceker ayam

Abstract

Manembo-nembo Wildlife Sanctuary is one of the conservation areas for Sulawesi bear cuscus (A. ursinus) in North Sulawesi Province. As one of the endemic marsupial species of Sulawesi, the species continues to be threatened and is included in the IUCN red list. This study aims to determine the diversity of feed and feed preferences of A. ursinus. This study was conducted for approximately 1 month (October 22 - November 29, 2009), using the focal animal sampling method. The results found that A. ursinus in Manembo-nembo Wildlife Sanctuary consumed 13 spesies of feed included in 8 families, with a moderate diversity of feed H'=2.398 (1<H'<3) and a moderate richness of feed R=2.553 (2.5<R<4). A. ursinus most often consumes young leaves (56.8%), followed by leaf shoots (12%), fruit (10.4%), flowers (9.6%), and mature leaves (8.8%). Based on the preference index, 5 feed preferences were obtained by A. ursinus, namely: Dracontomelon dao (w=3.34), Garuga floribunda (w=3.23), Palaquium amboinense (w=2.93), Mangifera indica (w=2.64), and Cananga odorata (w=1.63). The existence of food preferences by A. ursinus is also supported by the results of the Chi-square (χ2) test which obtained a χ2 hit value > X2, which is 42.96 > 12.026, with Asymp. Sig. 0.000 < 0.05.Suaka Margasatwa (SM) Manembo-nembo merupakan salah satu kawasan konservasi kuskus beruang Sulawesi (A. ursinus) di Provinsi Sulawesi Utara. Sebagai salah satu spesies marsupial endemik Sulawesi, spesies ini terus mengalami ancaman dan masuk dalam daftar merah IUCN. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keanekaragaman jenis pakan dan preferensi pakan A. ursinus. Penelitian ini dilakukan selama kurang lebih 1 bulan (22 Oktober – 29 November 2009), menggunakan metode focal animal sampling. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa A. ursinus di SM Manembo-nembo mengkonsumsi 13 jenis pakan yang termasuk dalam 8 famili, dengan keanekaragaman jenis pakan yang tergolong sedang H'=2,398 (1<H'<3) dan kekayaan jenis pakan yang juga tergolong sedang R=2,553 (2,5<R<4). A. ursinus di SM Manembo-nembo paling sering mengkonsumsi daun muda (56,8%), selanjutnya diikuti oleh pucuk daun (12%), buah (10,4%), bunga (9,6%), dan daun tua (8,8%). Berdasarkan indeks preferensi, diperoleh 5 preferensi pakan tertinggi oleh A. ursinus, yaitu: Dracontomelon dao (w=3,34), Garuga floribunda (w=3,23), Palaquium amboinense (w=2,93), Mangifera indica (w=2,64), dan Cananga odorata (w=1,63). Adanya preferensi pakan oleh A. ursinus di SM Manembo-nembo juga didukung oleh hasil uji Chi-square (χ2) yang memeroleh nilai χ 2 hit > X2, yaitu 42,96 > 12,026, dengan Asymp. Sig. 0,000 < 0,05.

Abstract

The research objective was to analyze the correlation between live weight and body size and internal organs of quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) fed with supplementary feed in the form of cassava leaf meal.. The use of cassava leaf meal as an alternative feed ingredient is expected to increase the efficiency of livestock production through the utilization of agricultural waste with high nutritional value. This research was conducted in Helumo Village, Suwawa Subdistrict, Bone Bolango District from April to June 2024 using 140 quails. Measures of live weight, length of tibia, tibia, neck, wing, tarsometarsus, and weights of liver, heart, and gizzard. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation. Results showed that live weight was strongly correlated with tarsometarsus length (r = 0.72) and wing length (r = 0.61), and moderately correlated with the weights of internal organs such as liver (r = 0.41), heart (r = 0.50), and gizzard (r = 0.55). Conversely, the correlation between live weight and tibia, tibia, and neck length was weak to very weak. It can be concluded that tarsometarsus length and wing length are potential morphometric indicators to predict quail live weight. This research is expected to serve as a basis for the development of more efficient selection and breeding strategies in quail rearing.Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis hubungan antara bobot hidup dengan ukuran tubuh dan organ dalam burung puyuh (Coturnix coturnix japonica) yang diberi pakan tambahan berupa tepung daun ubi kayu. Penggunaan tepung daun ubi kayu sebagai bahan pakan alternatif diharapkan dapat meningkatkan efisiensi produksi ternak melalui pemanfaatan limbah pertanian yang bernilai nutrisi tinggi. Penelitian dilakukan di Desa Helumo, Kecamatan Suwawa, Kabupaten Bone Bolango selama bulan April hingga Juni 2024 dengan menggunakan 140 ekor burung puyuh. Pengukuran terhadap bobot hidup, panjang tibia, pemur, leher, sayap, tarsometarsus, serta bobot hati, jantung, dan ampela. Analisis data menggunakan korelasi Pearson. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa bobot hidup berkorelasi kuat dengan panjang tarsometarsus (r = 0,72) dan panjang sayap (r = 0,61), serta berkorelasi sedang dengan bobot organ dalam seperti hati (r = 0,41), jantung (r = 0,50), dan ampela (r = 0,55). Sebaliknya, korelasi antara bobot hidup dengan panjang tibia, pemur, dan leher berada dalam kategori lemah hingga sangat lemah. Disimpulkan bahwa panjang tarsometarsus dan panjang sayap merupakan indikator morfometrik yang potensial untuk memprediksi bobot hidup burung puyuh. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi dasar bagi pengembangan strategi seleksi dan pemuliaan yang lebih efisien dalam pemeliharaan puyuh

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of feeding corn leaf flour and seaweed flour on the internal organs of broiler chickens (liver, heart, gizzard, and spleen) raised in slatted cages. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 6 treatments and 4 replicates, involving 96 broiler chickens. The variables observed included liver, heart, gizzard, and spleen weight. The results of the ANOVA statistical analysis showed that feeding a mixture of corn leaf flour and seaweed flour significantly (P<0.05) affected the liver, heart, gizzard, and spleen weight of broiler chickens. The treatments with alternative feed combinations (P3, P4, and P5) produced higher average organ weights compared to the control (P0). This increase in organ weight indicates physiological adaptation and increased metabolic activity and immune system of broiler chickens, without indicating pathological conditions. The conclusion is that this study can provide information for farmers in selecting alternative feed to improve broiler chicken productivity.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh pemberian pakan yang mengandung tepung daun jagung dan tepung rumput laut terhadap bagian-bagian organ dalam ayam broiler (hati, jantung, gizzard, dan limfa) yang dipelihara pada kandang slat. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 6 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan, melibatkan 96 ekor ayam broiler. Variabel yang diamati meliputi bobot hati, jantung, gizzard, dan limpa. Hasil analisis statistik ANOVA menunjukkan bahwa pemberian campuran tepung daun jagung dan tepung rumput laut secara nyata (P<0,05) mempengaruhi bobot hati, jantung, gizzard, dan limpa ayam broiler. Perlakuan dengan kombinasi pakan alternatif (P3, P4, dan P5) menghasilkan rata-rata bobot organ yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan kontrol (P0). Peningkatan bobot organ ini menunjukkan adaptasi fisiologis dan peningkatan aktivitas metabolisme serta sistem imun ayam broiler, tanpa mengindikasikan kondisi patologis. Kesimpulan bahwa penelitian ini dapat memberikan informasi bagi peternak dalam memilih pakan alternatif untuk meningkatkan produktivitas ayam broiler.

Abstract

Dairy cattle farming contributes to the Indonesian economy by improving food security. Probolinggo Regency is one of the regions with significant potential for the development of dairy farming. One of the districts in Probolinggo Regency with a considerable dairy cattle population is Krucil District. This study aimed to identify the social, economic, infrastructure and technology, as well as legal and institutional dimensions.The research employed qualitative descriptive and explanatory methods using a survey approach. The results of the study on the sustainability of dairy cattle farming showed that, in the social dimension, the level of education of farmers was categorized as low and the age of farmers tended to be advanced. However, other aspects such as time allocation for livestock activities, community access and perceptions, as well as social roles and patterns of community relationships in dairy farming activities were categorized as high. These conditions can encourage participation and support the continuity of dairy farming enterprises.Indicators in the economic dimension were generally in the moderate category, indicating that dairy farming businesses have not yet been optimized and therefore have not created a highly competitive agribusiness system. Infrastructure and technology play an important role in supporting dairy cattle farming, as reflected by the relatively moderate score in the infrastructure and technology dimension. The legal and institutional aspects showed an average moderate value, indicating that legal and institutional functions have not been fully optimized. Nevertheless, the existence of farmer groups and the involvement of farmers play an important role in supporting the progress of dairy farming enterprises.Usaha peternakan sapi perah memberikan kontribusi bagi perekonomian di Indonesia dalam meningkatkan ketahanan pangan.

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi dimensi sosial, ekonomi, infrastruktur dan teknologi serta hukum dan kelembagaan. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan deskriptif dan eksplanatori kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode survey. Hasil penelitian mengenai keberlangsungan usaha ternak sapi perah menunjukan hasil Pada dimensi sosial menunjukkan tingkat pendidikan dalam kategori rendah dan usia peternak dalam kategori lanjut. Akan tetapi dimensi lain yang menyangkut alokasi waktu untuk usaha ternak, akses dan pandangan masyarakat, peran dan pola hubungan masyarakat dalam kegiatan usaha sapi perah terkategori tinggi, hal ini dapat mendorong partisipasi dan terus berlansungnya usaha peternakan.Indikator dalam dimensi ekonomi rata – rata masuk dalam kategori sedang, artinya usaha ternak sapi perah belum optimal sehingga belum menciptakan sistem agribisnis yang mempunyai daya saing yang tinggi. Infrastruktur dan teknologi mempunyai peran penting dalam menunjang usaha ternak sapi perah. Hal ini di tunjukan pada hasil dimensi infrastruktur dan teknologi yang relatif sedang. Aspek hukum dan kelembagaan menunjukan nilai rata-rata sedang artinya fungsi hukum dan kelembagan belum maksimal. Akantetapi indikator keberadaan kelompok tani dan keterlibatan peternak memegang peran penting dalam menunjang kemajuan usaha.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the physical quality of broiler chicken meat fed with feed containing corn leaf flour and seaweed flour (Eucheuma cottonii). This experiment used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 6 treatments and 4 replicates. A total of 96 broiler chickens were divided into 6 treatments, with each treatment unit consisting of 4 chickens. The variables observed were pH, water holding capacity (WHC), meat color, and cooking loss. The research data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that the addition of corn leaf flour and seaweed flour had a significant effect on the pH value and color of the meat (P<0.05). Water retention tended to increase in the mixed treatment, although not significantly (P>0.05). The cooking shrinkage value did not differ significantly (P>0.05). The conclusion of this study is that feeding broilers with corn leaf flour and seaweed flour supplements can improve the physical quality of their meat, especially in terms of pH and color, although it has no significant effect on water-holding capacity and cooking loss.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kualitas fisik daging ayam broiler yang diberi pakan mengandung tepung daun jagung dan tepung rumput laut (Eucheuma cottonii). Percobaan ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) 6 perlakuan dengan 4 ulangan, sebanyak 96 ekor ayam broiler dibagi dalam 6 perlakuan, dimana setiap unit perlakuan terdiri 4 ekor. Variabel yang diamati adalah pH, daya ikat air (WHC), warna daging dan susut masak. Data hasil penelitian dianalisis mengunakan analysis of variance (ANOVA). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan tepung daun jagung dan tepung rumput laut berpengaruh nyata terhadap nilai pH dan warna daging (P<0,05). Daya ikat air cenderung meningkat pada perlakuan campuran, meskipun tidak signifikan (P>0,05). Nilai susut masak tidak berbeda nyata (P>0,05). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pemberian pakan dengan tambahan tepung daun jagung dan tepung rumput laut mampu memperbaiki kualitas fisik daging broiler terutama pada parameter pH dan warna, meskipun tidak memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap daya ikat air dan susut masak.
