Abstract

This study evaluated the effectiveness of several calcium compounds in the saponification of lemuru fish (Sardinella lemuru) oil to produce protected fat supplements for ruminants. Four calcium sources—Ca (OH)₂, CaCO₃, CaCO₃·MgCO₃ (dolomite), and CaSO₄ (gypsum)—were tested using a completely randomized design with five replications. The parameters observed included product texture, proximate composition (moisture, ash, fat), fatty acid profile, and solubility under rumen-like (neutral) and gastric (acidic) conditions. Results indicated that Ca (OH)₂, CaCO₃·MgCO₃, and CaSO₄ were effective in forming calcium or mixed fatty acid salts, while CaCO₃ failed to bind free fatty acids. Among the effective compounds, Ca (OH)₂ produced the fastest hardening product, whereas dolomite and gypsum provided more balanced mineral contributions (Ca, Mg, and S). All protected fat products were less soluble in the rumen environment but readily decomposed under acidic gastric conditions, ensuring nutrient bypass. These findings suggest that low-cost and locally available calcium sources can be utilized to develop protected fat supplements that are both nutritionally safe and practical for ruminant feeding. Further research is needed to optimize the water-to-oil ratio and enzyme application for improved efficiency.

Abstract

The Timor deer (Cervus timorensis), an endemic species of Indonesia, faces a severe population decline caused by habitat degradation, illegal hunting, and limited conservation initiatives. Captive breeding represents a strategic measure to enhance reproductive performance and ensure species persistence. This study examined the mating behaviour of Timor deer at the Brigif-16/Wira Yudha facility, Kediri, emphasising the effects of environmental conditions, social dynamics, and enclosure management. A total of 15 adult males and 40 adult females were monitored over two months using scan sampling across four daily periods (06:00–12:00, 12:00–15:00, 15:00–18:00, and 18:00–24:00). Results indicated that mating-related behaviors accounted for 18.7% of total activities, with the highest occurrence in the morning (06:00–12:00; 42.5% of mating events). Male-to-male competition represented 11.3% of all observations, also peaking in the morning, while female affiliative behaviours reached 15.8% during the same period. Activity levels declined sharply during midday heat (12:00–15:00; 8.6% of mating events) and in the evening (18:00–24:00; 6.2%), indicating strong environmental influence. Compared with wild populations, captive deer exhibited more clustered behavioural patterns, likely due to controlled feeding schedules, enclosure design, and the absence of predators. These findings suggest that reproductive monitoring and interventions should prioritise morning sessions when mating and social interactions are most frequent. Management practices that consider natural rhythms, minimise midday heat stress, and optimise social grouping can significantly improve welfare and reproductive output. Beyond practical applications, this study contributes to the understanding of polygynous cervid reproductive ecology under captive conditions. The insights gained provide a framework for refining conservation breeding strategies not only for Timor deer but also for other threatened ungulates facing similar challenges.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Sophia concentration with different alcohol concentrations in the processing of Na'an Maran (dried meat), which was conducted at the Animal Product Technology Laboratory, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Marine and Fisheries. Using 20 kg of fresh beef, Sophia with 10%, 12% and 14% alcohol concentration and 2% salt per 1 kg of meat. This study employed four treatments and five replicates. Where P0: Beef + 2% salt (Control), P1: Beef + 2% salt + 10% alcohol concentration, P2: beef + 2% salt + 12% alcohol concentration, P3: beef + 2% salt + 14% alcohol concentration.  Furthermore, organoleptic properties, pH and moisture content were tested. The data obtained were analysed using ANOVA and followed by Duncan's test to determine if there were significant differences between treatments. Organoleptic data were analysed using the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test, followed by the Mann-Whitney test if significant differences were found.  The results showed that the use of Sophia with different alcohol concentrations had a significant effect (P < 0.01) on organoleptic properties and pH, while having no significant effect (P > 0.05) on water content. It can be concluded that Sophia can improve the organoleptic quality of Na'an Maran with the best treatment at 10% alcohol concentration.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the relationship between hatchability traits, moisture loss and mortality in commercial Lohmann Brown Lite breeders in South Africa. A total of 5400 hatchable eggs were incubated. Descriptive analysis and the Pearson correlation coefficient were computed using MiniTab17. Fertility, embryo livability and mortality, total moisture loss, and hatchability were 95.06%, 86.56%, 6.37%, 13.27%, and 93.63%, respectively. There is a positive correlation between egg fertility and embryo livability (p<0.001; r=0.86) and between egg fertility and hatch of all set (r=0.82). There is a positive correlation between embryo livability and hatch of all sets (p < 0.001; r = 0.81). A negative correlation exists between moisture loss during days 0-10 and 11-18 of incubation (p < 0.001; r = -0.64). A positive correlation between total moisture loss and that during days 0-10 (p<0.01; r=0.44) and 11-18 (p<0.05; r=0.41) exists. A negative correlation was observed between hatch of fertile eggs and moisture loss (p < 0.05; r = 0.32). First-grade yield shows a positive correlation with total pullet yield (p < 0.001; r = 0.95). First-grade pullet yield has a negative correlation with male yield (p < 0.001; r = -0.95). Second-grade pullet yield has a positive correlation with overall pullet yield (p<0.05; r=0.36). Second-grade pullet yield has a negative correlation with male yield (p<0.05; r=-0.36. These results indicate that hatchability, embryonic mortality, and moisture loss are strongly influenced by fertility and incubation conditions. Optimizing these factors through proper management can improve chick quality, enhance hatchery efficiency, and increase productivity and profitability, contributing to sustainable poultry production and national food security.

Abstract

Sakura Block Plus is a feed supplement designed to enhance cattle performance, with rice bran accounting for 22% of its total ingredients. However, due to the increasing scarcity and rising prices of rice bran, palm oil processing solid by-products offer a potential alternative. This study aimed to assess the effect of Sakura Block Plus supplemented with solid at different levels as a substitute for rice bran on dry matter intake and body weight gain in Kaur cows fed a natural grass diet. A Latin Square Design (LSD) was employed, involving four treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of wild grass plus a sakura block, with 5.5% (P1), 11% (P2), 16.5% (P3), and 22% (P4) of the solid as rice bran replacement. The results indicated that replacing rice bran with solid up to 22% did not significantly affect dry matter intake (P>0.05). Still, there was a trend toward increased body weight gain at the highest solid level. Dry matter intake averaged 7.22-7.96 kg/head/day (2.80-3.06% of body weight), while body weight gain ranged from 0.41-0.52 kg/head/day. These findings suggest that solid can replace up to 100% of rice bran in sakura block plus formulations without adversely affecting cattle performance.

Abstract

To extend their shelf life beyond the approximate 14 days they last at room temperature, fresh eggs are often processed into liquid eggs. Storage at 4°C with the addition of forest honey (Apis dorsata), which is rich in antibacterials, antioxidants, and sugars, has the potential to maintain quality and serve as a sugar substitute in food products. This study evaluated the sensory quality of liquid eggs with forest honey after cold storage. A total of 60 chicken eggs were stored at 4°C for 21 days. Sensory testing was conducted on 21-day-old liquid eggs that had been steamed for 30 minutes. Panelists assessed color, aroma, taste, and texture, and data were analyzed using ANOVA with a DMRT follow-up test at the 0.05 level. Results indicated that the addition of wild bee honey (Apis dorsata) to liquid eggs stored at 4°C significantly improved the sensory attributes of egg whites, including color, odor, texture, and taste, but showed no significant effect on the sensory properties of egg yolks. Overall, liquid eggs with forest honey were acceptable to panelists and have the potential to be developed as a value-added food ingredient

Abstract

Probiotics play an essential role in regulating gut microbiota and increasing feed digestibility in poultry. This study aimed to screen and characterize cellulase-producing bacteria as poultry probiotic candidates. Among the five isolates tested, isolates I5 and BP had cellulase activity, as indicated by clear zones surrounding the colonies on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) agar plates. Isolate I5 was more tolerant to low pH and 0.3% bile salts than isolate BP, indicating probiotic potential. Isolate I5 was selected for cultivating in tempeh wastewater-molasses medium (TM) and LB medium at 37 °C with shaking at 120 rpm. The results demonstrated that bacterial growth in TM medium was significantly lower  (p < 0.001) than in LB medium. Importantly, bacterial growth in TM medium reached an optical density (OD₆₀₀) of 0.415 after 6 hours of incubation, indicating its adaptability to tempeh wastewater-molasses medium. These findings suggest that the TM medium promotes bacterial growth and proliferation, supports probiotic and enzyme production for use in poultry feed supplementation, and reduces cultivation costs. Therefore, the use of agro-industrial waste provides a cost-effective alternative for cultivating cellulase-producing probiotics, thereby contributing to value-added waste management, sustainable poultry production, and circular bio-economy practices.

Abstract

Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) is a modern approach to livestock management that leverages sensors, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence to enhance efficiency, productivity, and animal welfare. In developed countries, PLF is regarded as a revolution in the livestock sector; however, in the context of traditional livestock farming in Indonesia, particularly among small-scale beef cattle farmers, its implementation poses a dilemma between opportunities for transformation and risks of disruption. This systematic review, conducted in accordance with the PRISMA framework, critically examines the implications of PLF for traditional farmers by synthesizing literature from Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar (2010-2024). Through thematic analysis of 40 selected studies, we find that PLF offers substantial benefits, including improved feed efficiency, early disease detection, and enhanced animal welfare, but also faces significant barriers, such as high investment costs, limited infrastructure, low digital literacy, and risks of smallholder marginalization. By integrating evidence from both technological and socio-economic perspectives, this review provides a holistic analysis of PLF’s dual role as both a transformative tool and a potential disruptor in developing agricultural contexts. The findings underscore the necessity of context-sensitive adoption strategies, informed by incremental technology introduction, supportive policies, targeted subsidies, cooperative models, and capacity-building initiatives. This study contributes to the literature by offering a policy-relevant framework for aligning PLF with inclusive and sustainable livestock development in Indonesia and similar settings.
