Abstract

This study investigates the challenges and opportunities surrounding the decline in local pasteurized whole dairy milk consumption in Indonesia, focusing on West Sumatra. Despite potential health benefits, factors such as limited availability, storage challenges, and concerns about taste and product quality have hindered the adoption of whole milk as a mixing ingredient in contemporary beverages. Through a survey of beverage outlets in Padang City and analyzing consumer preferences, this research identifies critical barriers businesses face and proposes interventions to address them. These interventions include improving milk accessibility, providing business educational programs, promoting taste and quality benefits, supporting recipe development, conducting market research, and collaborating with suppliers. By addressing these challenges, businesses can expand consumer choice, stimulate demand, and drive growth in the whole milk-based beverage market, ultimately benefiting local dairy farmers and public health in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the added palm kernel cake (PKC) level in the Sclerotium rolfsii inoculum. This research used an experimental method with a completely randomized design, four treatments, and five replications. The treatments were different substrate compositions, consisting of 100% bran (control), 90% bran + 10% PKC (P1), 85% bran + 15% PKC (P2), and 80% bran + 20% PKC (P3). The variables observed were cellulase and mannanase enzyme activities. The data obtained were analyzed statistically using a completely random design analysis of variance and continued with Duncan's multiple range tests if the treatment influenced the observed variables. The results showed that adding PKC as a substrate in making Sclerotium rolfsii inoculum had a significant effect (P<0.01) on the activity of cellulase and mannanase enzymes. The best cellulase and mannanase enzyme activities were found in the 80% fine bran substrate composition + 20% PKC (P3), namely 16.02 U/mL and 7.81 U/mL.

Abstract

Rendang products can provide a considerable contribution to each marketing institution involved. The study aims to analyze the value of and marketing margin and farmer's share for producers of the beef-based rendang industry in Payakumbuh City. The research was conducted in 2022 in the central area of the rendang industry in West Sumatra, namely Payakumbuh City. The study involved twelve rendang industries that produce rendang using beef. Data were analyzed using the marketing margin and farmer's share (Fs) formulas to determine the value received by each marketing margin and the share received by rendang producers. The result showed that the average value of marketing margin based on the number of rendang variants produced (one variant, two variants, and three variants) showed that three rendang variants produced were able to provide the highest marketing margin value of 75.21%, compared to marketing margin of two rendang variants (72.85%), and one rendang variant (59.18%). Meanwhile, marketing margins based on the type of rendang variants produced are sliced rendang (74.41%), mashed rendang (75.26%), and pounded rendang (73.48%) with Fs value by sequentially 13.76%, 14.28%, and 13.58%.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the interaction between Palm Fatty Acid Distillate (PFAD) and high-tannin mangrove fruit extract (Sonneratia alba) on the in vitro digestibility of dairy cattle feed fiber fractions. The experimental design used a completely randomized factorial 3×4 pattern with three replicates. The first factor was the PFAD level (0%, 3%, 6%) and the second factor was the mangrove fruit extract dose (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%). Fermentation was carried out using the Tilley and Terry (1963) rumen stage method using fresh goat rumen fluid. The parameters observed included the digestibility of neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), hemicellulose, and cellulose. The results showed that PFAD, mangrove fruit extract, and their interaction had a significant effect (P<0.05) on the digestibility of NDF and cellulose, but did not have a significant effect on ADF and hemicellulose. The combination of 3% PFAD and 0.5–1% extract provided the highest digestibility. Increasing PFAD and tannin reduced digestibility due to the fat coating effect and the formation of tannin complexes with structural carbohydrates. The combination of PFAD and mangrove tannin can be optimized as a functional feed additive based on local resources that improves rumen fermentation efficiency without reducing fiber digestibility.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adding strawberry pulp (Fragaria × ananassa) at different concentrations on the sensory attributes of synbiotic yogurt. Sensory parameters, including texture, aroma, taste, and color, were assessed using a hedonic test. The sensory data were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by the Mann–Whitney post hoc test. The probiotic cultures used in this study were Lactobacillus fermentum L23, Streptococcus thermophilus, and Pediococcus acidilactici BK01. The treatments consisted of varying levels of strawberry pulp added to the synbiotic yogurt: P0 (0%), P1 (5%), P2 (10%), P3 (15%), and P4 (20%). The results indicated that strawberry pulp addition had a significant effect (P < 0.05) on the sensory scores of texture, aroma, taste, and color. The best sensory acceptance was observed in treatment P1, corresponding to the addition of 5% strawberry pulp to the synbiotic yogurt.

Abstract

Goat milk is increasingly recognized as a functional food in developing countries because of its high nutritional value and digestibility. However, maintaining its microbiological safety and physicochemical stability remains challenging, particularly in smallholder systems under tropical conditions. This study evaluated the quality of dairy goat milk based on total plate count (TPC), pH, and alcohol stability at a smallholder farm in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Milk samples were collected from 16 lactating goats and analyzed using standard laboratory methods. The average TPC was 3.58 × 10⁴ CFU/mL, well below the maximum permissible limit of 1 × 10⁶ CFU/mL Indonesian and Thai Agricultural Standards. The mean pH value was 6.71 ± 0.01, indicating fresh milk conditions, while all samples exhibited negative alcohol test results, confirming protein stability and the absence of early spoilage. These findings demonstrate that high-quality milk can be produced in tropical smallholder systems when basic hygiene practices are properly implemented. This study provides empirical evidence supporting the role of smallholder dairy goat farms in ensuring food safety and sustainable dairy development in emerging economies.

Abstract

Brown Midrib (BMR) sorghum is a mutation-derived variety with low lignin and high non-structural carbohydrate content, potential as a ruminant forage. The ratoon system allows for repeated harvesting without replanting, thus providing an efficient forage supply. This study aimed to evaluate the agronomic characteristics and biomass productivity of BMR mutant sorghum in primary plants, the first and second ratoon. The study was conducted experimentally using a randomized block design with three treatments (primary, first ratoon, and second ratoon plants) and four replications. The parameters observed included agronomic components (plant height, number of tillers, stem diameter, and leaf size), stem sugar value (Brix), proportion of plant structures (stems, leaves, and panicles), panicle production, forage production, and livestock carrying capacity. The results showed that plant height was not significantly different (P>0.05) between primary and ratoon plants, while stem diameter and leaf size decreased gradually from the first to the second ratoon. The Brix value showed a highly significant difference (P<0.01), with the highest value in the first ratoon and the lowest in the second ratoon. The proportion of stems and leaves decreased in the second ratoon, whereas the proportion of panicles and panicle production increased significantly (P<0.01). The highest forage production was obtained in the second ratoon at 52.08 tons/ha, while the total production of the three harvests reached 112.28 tons/ha with a carrying capacity of 8.8 AU/ha. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that the ratoon system does not reduce the biomass productivity of BMR mutant sorghum and can maintain agronomic quality until the second ratoon. With its high production potential and good regrowth ability, BMR mutant sorghum is worthy of development as a sustainable forage source in ruminant livestock farming systems.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of substituting grass with ammoniated citronella waste supplemented with cassava leaves, phosphorus, and zinc minerals on nutrient digestibility and rumen fluid characteristics in vitro. The study used a completely randomized design with five treatments and four replications: R0 = 100% grass; R1 = 75% grass + 25% ammoniated citronella waste; R2 = 50% grass + 50% ammoniated citronella waste; R3 = 25% grass + 75% ammoniated citronella waste; and R4 = 100% ammoniated citronella waste. The variables observed included the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, and crude protein, as well as pH, NH₃, and VFA. The results showed that the treatments significantly affected the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, NH₃, and VFA, but did not significantly affect rumen fluid pH. The highest digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, and VFA was obtained in treatment R3, while the highest digestibility of crude protein and NH₃ was obtained in treatment R4. The pH value of the rumen fluid in all treatments remained within the normal range. It was concluded that ammoniated citronella waste supplemented with cassava leaves, phosphorus minerals, and zinc could be used as an alternative fiber source to replace grass, with an optimal substitution level of 75% based on dry matter and organic matter digestibility and rumen fermentability.

Abstract

The non-cash food assistance (BPNT) program in Indonesia is designed to reduce poverty and improve welfare by providing non-cash food assistance. In the agricultural sector, where many rural households depend on farming activities as their primary source of livelihood, this program needs to support vulnerable communities. The program also contributes to the achievement of SDGs 1 (no poverty) and 2 (zero hunger), which aim to reduce poverty and ensure food security. However, the implementation of this program is often affected by various factors that can lead to biases in the targeting and distribution of assistance. This study explores the socioeconomic characteristics of BPNT recipients in the agricultural sector and identifies potential biases in program implementation. The data used include various socioeconomic variables, such as education level, employment status, home ownership, housing infrastructure conditions, sanitation facilities, lighting sources, and food insecurity. The analysis shows that BPNT recipients often come from households whose heads have lower educational attainment, unstable employment conditions, or do not own their homes. Inadequate housing conditions and limited sanitation facilities are also significantly associated with receiving assistance. These findings indicate that the BPNT program still faces challenges in achieving appropriate and effective targeting. This study proposes several recommendations for improved implementation, including improved targeting mechanisms, periodic evaluations, and policy adjustments to minimize bias. Thus, BPNT can be better targeted in addressing the food needs of the most vulnerable communities while supporting the achievement of sustainable development goals.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the quality of milk produced by Peranakan Friesian Holstein (PFH) cows at Moosa Edufarm, Solok Regency, West Sumatra. Six fresh milk samples from cows at different lactation stages were analyzed for the boiling test (protein stability), total solids (TS), solid nonfat (SNF), protein content, and lactose content. TS and SNF were measured using the gravimetric method, while protein and lactose were analyzed using a Lactoscan device. The results indicated that all milk samples were negative for coagulation in the boiling test, indicating casein stability and freshness. The average TS content was 18.95 ± 4.37% and SNF was 14.45 ± 3.76%, both exceeding the minimum standards set by the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 3141.1-2011). The average protein content was 2.84 ± 0.14%, with the SNI minimum standard of 2.8%. The average lactose content was 4.25 ± 0.21%, within the normal range according to the literature. Variation in results among samples was influenced by feeding regime, lactation stage, cow health, age and post-milking handling. Overall, the milk produced met national quality standards and was suitable for direct consumption and processing into dairy products.
