Abstract

Phytobiotics are derivated from the plants which contains active compounds. They produce antibacterial and antioxidants activity and can improve the condition of the digestive tract. Papaya leaf extracts and mint leaf extracts have the potential as natural phytobiotics because they have antibacterial, antioxidant properties, can improve alimentary tract conditions and increase the absorption of nutrients in the feed. The aim of this study was to compare the utilization of papaya leaf extract (EDP) and mint leaf extract (EDM) in feed on the production and quality of quail egg. A hundried and fourty quails of 42 days age were arranged in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 4 replicates (7 quails per replicate). The treatment diets consisted of P0 = Basal diet only (Control), P1 = Basal diet + 100 ppm EDP, P2 = Basal diet + 200 ppm EDP, P3 = Basal diet + 100 ppm EDM and P4 = Basal diet + 200 ppm EDM. The results approved that mint leaf extract reduces in feed consumption, increase egg production and mass and reduce feed conversion values, in contrast the papaya leaf extract ​​produce non-significant on those variables. However, papaya leaf extract was able to increase more white index values and haugh unit ​​of quail egg, while mint leaf extract increased more yolk index values. The addition of 100 ppm mint leaf extract resulted in the highest value of egg production and egg mass. Therefore, the perfomance and quality of eggs in mint leaf group were better than papaya leaf group.

Abstract

The research aims to find out how much influence legume leaf compost and microbes on improving nutrient absorption andgrowth of ebony seedlings. The research was conducted from August 2, 2022 to February 2, 2023 for 6 months at the BPDAS Palu-Poso Permanent Nursery. The compost used is compost derived from legume leaves consisting of gamal, lamtoro, and turi trees and the microbes used are Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Plantarum Plant Growth Stimulant (PPGS) which are microbes that are widely traded in agricultural specialty online stores, The samples of this study amounted to 108 ebony seedlings with 12 treatments andeach treatment contained 9 seedlings/samples. This study used analysis of variance of complete randomized design (CRD) to determine the significant and non-significant effects of each treatment by looking at several variables from height, diameter, number of leaves, sturdiness, nutrient uptake, seedling quality index in each seedling/sample. The results showed that seedlings treated with tailings soil + lamtoro leaf compost + PGPR microbes (K3M2) had the best average growth in each variable. While the lowest growth of seedlings with control soil treatment (K0M0).

Abstract

Central Sulawesi's 2018 earthquake, liquefaction, and tsunami caused liquefaction in Palu City's Balaroa and Petobo neighbourhoods. Land surface changes affected agricultural land area and soil fertility, which can affect farmers' income. Soil fertility indicates its nutrient-providing capacity. This study aims to assess agricultural land fertility, farmer income, and the best ways to recover from natural disasters. This descriptive study included all Petobo farmers affected by the earthquake and liquefaction. Purposive sampling tested 25 respondents. The field survey collected soil samples at coordinate points. Twelve soil samples were taken from six points at 20 cm and 40 cm depths. The samples were analysed at Tadulako University's Environmental and Natural Resources Analysis Laboratory. The results showed that Petobo Village's liquefaction-affected and unaffected areas had low fertility due to low C-organic and Potassium content, which prevented plants from using soil nutrients. Low soil fertility reduces crop production. Farmers earn an average of Rp. 1,422,857 per hectare, up to Rp. 4,633,929 per season per hectare. To increase soil fertility, farmers can use compost, manure, crop residues like legume plant stover, rice straw, and chemical fertilisers according to dosage.

Abstract

Giving vitamin C to feed is very necessary considering that vitamin C is a multivitamin needed by the body. The purpose of this study was to determine the proper dose of vitamin C in the golden snail silage feed in increasing the biomass and reproduction of Artemia sp. The research was conducted at the Laboratory of Water Quality and Aquatic Biology, Department of Fisheries and Maritime Affairs, Faculty of Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, Tadulako University. The variables observed were population density, egg/cyst production, hatching rate, survival rate (SR), water quality. The study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications with 20 experimental units A: control , B: vitamin C 12 mg/L, C: vitamin C 18 mg/L, D: vitamin C 24 mg/L, E: vitamin C 30 mg/L. The results showed that vitamin C enrichment with a concentration of 24 mg/L had a very significant effect (p<0.05) on each variable. Improper concentration of vitamin C in feed enrichment can affect the survival of Artemia sp.

Abstract

This study, conducted from March to May 2023, aimed to assess the impact of fermented rice bran from cow rumen contents on silage quality, pH, and nutrient content with varying storage times. The experiment took place in Porame Village, Central Sulawesi Province, and Tadulako University's Feed Nutrition Laboratory. The study used molasses, rice bran, EM4, water, and cow rumen waste as materials. Employing a complete randomized design with a 2x3 factorial pattern, the study had 6 treatment combinations and 24 experimental units. Factors included fermented and unfermented rice bran ratios mixed with cow rumen content, and storage times (21, 25, and 30 days). Results from SPSS analysis indicated no significant interaction between fermented rice bran and storage time regarding physical quality and nutrient content. However, the pH of silage was significantly affected. Fermented rice bran (A2) led to a notable pH reduction compared to non-fermented rice bran (A1). In summary, this study concluded that while there's no substantial interaction effect on physical quality and nutrient content, pH measurements are impacted by the use of fermented rice bran.

Abstract

The research was conducted in the Kawatuna Sub-watershed with the aim of studying the physical properties of the soil and knowing the infiltration rate of several land uses in the Kawatuna Sub-watershed. This study used the Horton equation formula and took soil samples for analysis at the Laboratory of Soil Science, Faculty of Agriculture, Tadulako University, Palu. The results showed that the physical properties of the soil greatly influenced the infiltration process, the highest organic matter was secondary soil 6.10%, dry land agriculture 4.50% and the lowest was shrubs 3.04%. Secondary forest soil textures are loam and dusty loam, dry land agriculture has sandy loam textures, and shrubs have loamy, sandy loam and dusty loam textures. In terms of physical properties of water content, dry land agriculture had the highest water content 21.48%, secondary forest 19.19% and shrubs the lowest 15.54%. The highest infiltration rate was secondary forest land (12.74 cm/hour) with fast criteria, dry land agriculture (7.80 cm/hour) medium fast category and shrub land (6.19 cm/hour) medium category.

Abstract

This research aims to empower and identify internal (strengths and weaknesses) and external (opportunities and threats) factors influencing the empowerment of Forest Farmer Groups (FFGs) in honeybee cultivation within the Dolago Tanggung Forest Management Unit, Central Sulawesi. The study was conducted from March to May 2023, involving 45 respondents from 3 FFGs, each comprising 15 members. Qualitative descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis with IFAS and EFAS matrices were employed. The results of the internal and external factor analyses revealed strengths such as training for FFG members and financial assistance, weaknesses including limited FFG members participating in training and difficulties in securing additional funds for maintenance costs. Opportunities encompassed government support and consumer trust in products, while threats comprised weather changes and underutilization of technology for information acquisition. The SWOT analysis placed the study in Quadrant 1, indicating support for an aggressive strategy leveraging strengths to seize opportunities. Strategies suggested involve enhancing relationships among government, FFGs, and partners, boosting honey production and quality, providing regular honeybee cultivation training, utilizing agricultural and information technologies for product marketing, and employing attractive packaging to enhance consumer appeal.
