Abstract

The Kamang Duck is a local livestock breed from West Sumatra, originating from the Kamang region in West Sumatra. Kamang ducks can produce quality eggs and tender meat, contributing to Indonesia's food security. Duck farming is one of the livestock sectors with significant development potential, especially in Indonesia, where poultry meat consumption is high. To optimize farming ventures, financial analysis is a crucial aspect for evaluating profitability, efficiency, and business to develop duck farming. The research was conducted at Dapur Bundo N-3 in Nagari Kamang, Agam Regency, using a survey method presented descriptively in tables and figures. The study aims to determine the financial value of Kamang duck farming by analyzing costs, revenues, income, and the R/C ratio. The R/C ratio result of 1.53 indicates that, with a value greater than 1, this meat duck farming business is feasible. A hybrid duck farming business with an R/C ratio over 1 is suitable for further development. The BEP (Break-Even Point) production value of 72.06 kg indicates the level of production at which the meat duck farming operation breaks even, with no profit or loss. This is a crucial metric for understanding the minimum production required to sustain the business. The study's actual production of meat ducks was 130 kg. The research conducted at Dapur Bundo N-3 on the Kamang duck business, with a stock of 100 ducks and a rearing period of seven (7) weeks from DOD (Day-Old Ducks), yielded the following results: total rearing cost of Rp 3,817,473, total revenue of Rp 5,850,000, and profit of Rp 2,032,527. The Kamang broiler duck farming business, on a scale of 100 ducks, is considered viable, with an R/C ratio of 1.53.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of incorporating fish oil as an omega-3 source on BSF maggot meal's production and nutritional composition when cultivated in a growth medium based on the mixed fermentation of ruminant blood and tofu. The study utilized BSF eggs, fresh blood, tofu, Probio_FM, and sardine fish oil. An experimental design was implemented, consisting of four treatment groups with three replications, following a completely randomized design (CRD). The treatments involved varying levels of fish oil supplementation in the BSF larvae growth medium: 0 percent (control), 2 percent, 4 percent, and 8 percent. The measured parameters included BSF maggot production and the nutritional content of BSF maggot meal. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that fish oil supplementation in the fermented blood and tofu growth medium did not significantly affect (P > 0.05) BSF maggot production. However, it had a significant effect (P < 0.05) on crude ash content and a highly significant effect (P < 0.01) on dry matter, crude protein, and crude fat content in BSF maggot meal. Supplementing fish oil at a 4 percent level resulted in a BSF maggot yield of 126.50 grams, with a dry matter content of 96.69 percent, crude protein at 32.35 percent, crude fat at 33.04 percent, and ash content at 6.22 percent.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of giving rabbit urine POC on Odot grass production, such as plant height, leaf width, fresh production, number of tillers, and leaf length. Forage is the main feed component most needed by ruminant livestock, and in general, forage can be divided into three groups: grass (Gramineae), legumes (Leguminoseae), and non-grass. Feed is the most important factor in livestock raising; the success or failure of a livestock business is primarily determined by the feed provided. One of the forages for livestock is Odot grass, which can be reproduced using a vegetative method, namely by using the branches that grow best. This research used the experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 5 treatments and four groups as replications. The treatments given were as follows: P1: No rabbit urine fertilizer, P2: Pure rabbit urine (10%), P3: POC rabbit urine (10%), P4: POC rabbit urine (15%), P5: POC urine rabbit (20%). The variables observed were fresh production (kg), plant height (cm), number of tillers (stems), leaf width (cm), and leaf length (cm). The results and discussion of the results of this research show that the highest results were in treatment P5 (20% POC rabbit urine), where fresh production of Odot grass was 2.5 kg per hill, plant height 120.5 cm, the number of saplings 27.75 stems, leaf width 4 .75 cm and leaf length 69.5 cm. In conclusion, giving rabbit urine POC showed no significant effect on fresh production and plant height but really affected the number of tillers, leaf width, and leaf length of Odot grass.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of different mixing ratios of Turbinaria murayana seaweed meal and tuna fish waste meal as alternative protein sources in poultry feed. The research was conducted using an experimental method arranged in a completely randomised design (CRD) with five treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of different mixing ratios of Turbinaria murayana seaweed meal and tuna fish waste meal, namely 95:5%, 90:10%, 85:15%, 80:20%, and 75:25%. Data were analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test to determine significant differences among treatments. The results showed that varying the mixing ratios had no significant effect (P>0.05) on moisture content, organic matter, crude fiber, crude fat, and calcium levels, but significantly affected (P<0.05) crude protein and phosphorus contents. The 85:15% mixture produced the best nutritional composition as a protein source for poultry feed, with the following nutrient contents: moisture 6.73%, organic matter 82.33%, crude fiber 8.58%, crude protein 31.11%, crude fat 15.35%, calcium 4.10%, and phosphorus 0.30%.

Abstract

Rolled eggs are a popular type of street food among schoolchildren. Consumption of this product has become controversial regarding nutrition and health, particularly its high-fat content (oily), the potential for oxidation from the use of bulk oil and reused oil, and the potential for contamination due to its production location on the side of the road. This study aims to determine the physicochemical and microbiological quality of rolled eggs sold in Gunung Pangilun Village, North Padang District, Padang City. Fat content, free fatty acids, peroxide value, pH, color (L*, a* b*), total bacterial colonies, and total Escherichia coli colonies were the parameters measured. The study used a Randomised Block Design (RBD) with four egg roll vendors as treatments and five repetitions of sample collection. The results showed that the range of fat content, free fatty acids, and peroxide values was 22.10–36.48%, 0.56–0.61%, and 27.26–33.05 meq/kg, respectively. Meanwhile, the total plate count ranged from 5.08 to 24.76 x10⁷ repercussion CFU/g, and the total E. coli count ranged from 3.32 to 29.24 x10⁵ repercussion CFU/g. Physically, the color of the rolled eggs showed ranges of lightness, redness, and yellowness of 53.81–57.23, 1.83–3.25, and 16.09–19.86, respectively, and a pH range of 8.45–8.51. Based on the chemical and microbiological analysis results of the rolled egg samples, there is a relatively high level of contamination and chemical damage. It indicates caution when consuming rolled eggs, as excessive consumption may lead to health issues.

Abstract

This study examined the dynamics of the traditional cattle trading in Solok Regency, West Sumatra, Indonesia, focusing on the Muaro Paneh livestock market. Livestock markets support rural economies by facilitating animal transactions, disseminating market information, preserving cultural practices, and maintaining social networks. Despite the significance of this market, there was a lack of research on micro-level rural livestock markets in Indonesia. This study aimed to fill the gap by investigating the structure, key actors, and transactional mechanisms of the traditional cattle trade in Solok District. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research exposed the underlying dynamics of rural livestock markets, evaluate their resilience, and provide empirical insights for inclusive and context-sensitive livestock development policies. The findings emphasize the importance of traditional livestock markets in rural transformation and sustainable livestock systems.

Abstract

This study investigated the effects of incorporating tannin-rich mangrove fruit (Sonneratia alba) into Indigofera zollingeriana-based rations on in vitro digestibility and rumen fermentation characteristics. Using a completely randomized design with four treatments (0%, 3%, 6%, and 9% S. alba) and four replicates, we evaluated dry matter digestibility (DMD), organic matter digestibility (OMD), crude protein digestibility (CPD), crude fiber digestibility (CFD), crude fat digestibility, nitrogen-free extract (NFE), rumen pH, volatile fatty acids (VFA), and ammonia (NH₃) concentrations. Results revealed that moderate tannin inclusion (6%) improved CPD and nutrient protection without significantly impairing DMD or OMD. However, higher inclusion (9%) significantly reduced CFD, crude fat digestibility, NFE, VFA, and NH₃ concentrations (P<0.05 or P<0.01), indicating suppressed microbial activity. These findings suggest that while S. alba tannins can effectively reduce ruminal protein degradation and modulate fermentation, excessive inclusion negatively impacts overall feed digestibility. The optimal inclusion rate was identified at 6%, balancing protein protection and fermentation efficiency. This study supports the strategic use of plant-based tannins as a feed additive to enhance protein utilization and reduce nitrogen losses in ruminant diets.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of product, price, place, promotion, and services on purchasing decisions for rendang in Payakumbuh, West Sumatra. The study was conducted on 51 Micro Small Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) consumers. Research was conducted using a survey method, and the obtained data was subjected to a quantitative descriptive analysis using multiple linear regression. Based on the result of the research analysis, the number R2 (R Square) is 0.224 or (22.40%). This showed that the percentage contribution of the influence of the marketing mix of rendang as independent variables (product, price, place, promotion, and services) to the dependent variable (purchasing decision) is 22.40%. At the same time, the remaining 77.60% is influenced or explained by other variables that are not included in this research model. A significant simultaneous effect of five marketing mixes, i.e., product, price, place, promotion, and service, on consumers' purchasing decision of rendang was noticed. Price, place, and service positively affected the partial evaluation; however, product and promotion were not. To sum up, innovation on price, place, and service can be the primary consideration for the MSME to keep competitive in the rendang market.
