Abstract

The poultry industry continues to seek technological innovations to improve production efficiency and reduce operational costs. One critical aspect in poultry farming is feed management, which significantly influences productivity and farm sustainability. Manual feeding systems often lead to feed waste, labor inefficiency, and inconsistent feeding schedules. This study aims to develop an automated feeding system model to improve production efficiency in laying hens through the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology and real-time monitoring systems. The research employed a system development approach combining microcontroller-based automation, sensor monitoring, and scheduling mechanisms using real-time clock modules. Data were analyzed by comparing feeding accuracy, labor efficiency, and feed utilization before and after system implementation. The results demonstrate that the proposed automated feeding model improves feeding accuracy and reduces feed waste while maintaining optimal feeding intervals. The integration of sensors and IoT monitoring also enables real-time control and improved farm management. The findings indicate that automated feeding technology contributes significantly to enhancing production efficiency and sustainability in poultry farming. This study provides a practical model that can be implemented in small- and medium-scale poultry farms to support modern poultry management systems.

Abstract

Digital technology adoption in livestock farming has increased significantly over the last decade. Dairy cattle production management now integrates digital applications such as herd management software, precision monitoring systems, and mobile applications. These technologies enable real time monitoring of animal health, feeding behavior, and production performance. However, the extent of digital application utilization and its management implications still require comprehensive analysis. This study aims to analyze the role and effectiveness of digital applications in dairy cattle production management based on recent scientific literature. The research uses a qualitative literature review approach by examining 30 scientific publications related to digital technology adoption in dairy farming. Data were analyzed using thematic synthesis to identify major technological trends, management benefits, and adoption challenges. The results show that digital applications significantly improve management efficiency through automated monitoring, data based decision making, and improved animal health surveillance. Studies also report improvements in productivity, cost efficiency, and environmental performance. Despite these benefits, adoption barriers remain, including investment costs, data security concerns, and limited digital skills among farmers. The study concludes that digital applications play a strategic role in modern dairy cattle production management, particularly in supporting precision livestock farming systems. Future research should focus on integrating artificial intelligence and Internet of Things technologies to enhance decision support systems in dairy farming.

Abstract

The increasing demand for beef production requires innovative strategies to maintain productivity while reducing feed costs and environmental impacts. One promising approach involves the utilization of agricultural waste as an alternative feed resource for beef cattle. This study evaluates the effectiveness of agricultural waste utilization in improving beef cattle productivity through a systematic literature-based analysis of empirical studies. Data were collected from peer-reviewed journal articles, conference proceedings, and scientific reports published between 1999 and 2025. The analysis focuses on feed efficiency, animal growth performance, and economic feasibility. The results indicate that various agricultural by-products, including crop residues, agro-industrial waste, and food waste biomass, can enhance feed utilization and growth performance when properly processed and balanced nutritionally. Studies demonstrate that feed formulations containing agricultural waste significantly improve average daily gain, rumen function, and feed conversion ratios in beef cattle. In addition, agricultural waste-based feed contributes to sustainable livestock production by reducing feed costs and minimizing environmental waste. However, nutritional variability and digestibility remain challenges that require proper treatment and supplementation. This study concludes that agricultural waste represents a viable and sustainable alternative feed resource for improving beef cattle productivity, especially in regions with abundant agricultural residues. Further research should focus on optimizing processing technologies and nutrient balancing to maximize livestock performance.

Abstract

The increasing cost of commercial feed has encouraged the exploration of alternative feed resources for poultry production. Rice bran is widely available in many agricultural regions but its utilization is limited due to high fiber content and the presence of anti-nutritional factors. Fermentation technology has been proposed to improve its nutritional quality and digestibility. This study aimed to analyze the effect of fermented rice bran-based feed on the production performance of meat ducks. The research applied an experimental design using four feed treatments with different levels of fermented rice bran inclusion. Parameters observed included feed consumption, body weight gain, and feed conversion ratio. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance followed by Duncan's multiple range test. The results showed that fermented rice bran significantly improved feed efficiency and body weight gain compared with conventional feed formulations. Ducks receiving diets containing fermented rice bran demonstrated better nutrient utilization and improved growth performance. These findings confirm that fermentation can enhance the nutritional value of rice bran and support sustainable duck production systems. The study contributes to the development of alternative feed strategies using locally available agricultural by-products.

Abstract

The poultry industry faces increasing pressure to improve productivity while reducing the use of antibiotic growth promoters. Probiotics have emerged as a promising alternative to enhance growth performance and feed efficiency in broiler chickens. This study aims to analyze the effect of probiotic supplementation on growth performance and feed efficiency in broilers based on experimental observations supported by previous empirical findings. The research used a quantitative experimental approach involving broiler chickens divided into control and treatment groups receiving probiotic supplementation in feed. Growth performance parameters included body weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio. Data were analyzed using descriptive and comparative statistical methods. The results showed that probiotic supplementation significantly improved growth performance and feed efficiency compared to the control group. Broilers receiving probiotics showed higher body weight gain and improved feed conversion ratio. These findings are consistent with previous studies reporting that probiotic strains such as Lactobacillus and Bacillus improve nutrient digestibility and intestinal microflora balance. The study concludes that probiotic supplementation is an effective nutritional strategy to enhance broiler productivity and reduce dependence on antibiotics in poultry production systems.
