Abstract

Background. Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is a strategic infectious animal disease that has a significant impact on the health of cattle and economic losses for farmers. Cirebon Regency has been one of the areas affected by the LSD outbreak since the beginning of 2023. Aims. This study aims to analyze the morbidity rate, form of treatment, and mitigation strategies of LSD disease in Cirebon Regency. Method. The research method used is a descriptive approach with quantitative and qualitative components (mixed methods). Quantitative data were obtained from LSD case reports in the iSIKHNAS system for the 2023–2025 period to calculate morbidity rates, while qualitative data were collected through interviews with farmers, animal health workers, and the Department of Agriculture related to LSD handling and mitigation. Results. The results of the study show that the LSD morbidity rate in Cirebon Regency has decreased significantly from 7.86% in 2023 to 0.23% in 2024, and slightly increased to 0.75% in 2025. The decrease in morbidity is related to increased control efforts, especially vaccination, handling sick livestock, and the active involvement of animal health workers. LSD management is carried out through supportive therapy, isolation of sick livestock, cage sanitation, and vector control, while mitigation is focused on vaccination, livestock traffic restrictions, biosecurity, and livestock education. The FMEA analysis shows that livestock traffic control, vaccination coverage, and vector control are the top priorities for mitigation, with the highest risk. Conclusion. This study concludes that LSD control in Cirebon Regency has shown positive results, but it is necessary to strengthen mitigation in an integrated and sustainable manner to prevent the re-emergence of LSD disease in the future. Implications. The policy implications of this study emphasize the need for an integrated, data-driven, and sustainable LSD control strategy. Synergy between local governments, animal health workers, and breeders is a key factor in reducing the risk of LSD transmission and minimizing the economic impact and health of livestock in Cirebon Regency.

Abstract

Background. The only flying mammals, bats play an essential role in their natural habitat. Based on the type of food, bats can be divided into two groups: fruit-eating bats and insect-eating bats. Bats rank second-highest in species diversity, with 1,439 worldwide and 239 in Indonesia. Known as reservoirs of viruses, including coronaviruses. Bats are suspected to be related to COVID-19. Aims. Under the Research Innovation and Collaboration Program - Higher Education for Technology and Innovation Project (HETI) University of Lampung 2024-2025, and in collaboration with the Lampung Disease Investigation Centre, learning the procedures for handling bats properly so as not to physically harm bats in oral swab sampling and species recognition in Braja Harjosari, directly next to Way Kambas National Park was done. The life-trapping technique uses a mist net. Methods. Bat handling for taking an oral swab was carried out using the pinch grip method, holding both bat arms backwards with the thumb and middle finger, with the bat positioned facing upwards. Conclusion. The bat's mouth is then blown open, and a cotton swab is gently inserted into the bat's mouth. Afterwards, the bat is rested and given a drink/water and released into nature. Oral swab samples from 10 individual bats, fruit-eating bats, Cynopterus brachyotis (n = 8), Cynopterus horsfieldii (n = 1), and an insect-eating bat, Scotophilus kuhlii (n = 1).

Abstract

Background. Anther culture techniques have great potential for increasing productivity, quality, and competitiveness of crop commodities through anther culture techniques to obtain pure double haploid lines. Aims. Through breeding activities, it is hoped that a variety of new superior lines can be produced, which in addition to having high productivity, also possess several other characteristics that support efforts to improve quality and competitiveness. Methods. The experiment was conducted in Lengkong Village, Bojongsoang District, Bandung Regency. The daily temperature range during the experiment was between 16ºC and 29ºC, and the relative humidity ranged from 60% to 95%. Rainfall during the study varied between 48.26 mm - 256.54 mm. Temperature, relative humidity, and rainfall at the experimental location were in the optimal range for rice cultivation. The genetic material used was 14 rice genotypes consisting of 12 dihaploid (DH) lines from IPB anther culture and 2 comparison varieties, namely Bioni 63 Agritan Ciherang and Inpari 18. The lines tested were FS3-15-2-2, FS3-29-1-2, FS3-36-3-1, FS3-47-1-1, FS3-60-1-2, FS3-67-2-1, FS4-13-2-1, FS4-27-2-1, FS4-27-3-1, FS4-34-1-1, FS4-41-1-2, FS442-2-2. Conclusion The test results showed: 1) There were differences in growth characteristics, yield components, and yield capacity of 14 rice genotypes (12 anther cultures and 2 control varieties. 2) The twelve tested lines had the same yield capacity as the Bioni63 Ciherang Agritan variety and were superior to the Inpari 18 variety.

Abstract

Background. This study examines the success of native chicken farming in Fakfak Regency, which remains an important livelihood activity but faces various technical and institutional constraints. Aims. The study aims to analyze the influence of technical, economic, and social factors on farming success, as well as to assess the moderating role of Good Farming Practices (GFP). Methods. A mixed-method approach was applied, combining quantitative and qualitative analyses. Data were collected through surveys and in-depth interviews with smallholder farmers. Quantitative data were analyzed using multiple linear regression and moderation analysis, while qualitative data were used to enrich the interpretation of findings. Result. The results indicate that technical factors, such as feeding management and disease control, have the most dominant influence on farming success, followed by economic and social factors. The GFP index significantly strengthens the relationship between these production factors and business outcomes, suggesting that better farming practices enhance overall performance. Conclusion. Qualitative findings reveal persistent challenges, including limited feed availability, weak institutional support, and low adoption of improved technologies. In conclusion, strengthening technical management and promoting GFP implementation are critical for improving productivity. Implementation. The study implies that policy interventions and extension services should focus on capacity building and sustainable farming practices to support smallholder farmers.
