The diversity of insects in opened land utilization with a cultivation of Brachiaria mutica forage in ‘Sentrum Agraris Lotta’

An opened land which has been abandoned could be revitalized by forage cultivation could be a good alternative, but the extent to which the diversity of insects visiting and or engaging in this cultivation was not well known. The presence of insects in Brachiaria mutica cultivation site could play an integrated role on various components of the environment. This study aimed to determine the level of insect diversity found in B. mutica grass cultivation sites on opened land without restriction of solar radiation. The identification of insects in this study was carried out at the family level. The collection of insect visiting and or engaging at the B. mutica cultivation site was carried out at 10 points on the transect line using a pitfall-trap at 5 points A and a swing net trap at 5 points B. The insect diversity was calculated based on the Shannon-Wiener index calculation. The results obtained were fourteen insect families detected at the research location, and the most widely monitored were from the Formicidae family (n=219), followed by Acrididae (n=23), Termitidae (n=17), Tortricidae (n=17), Tettigoniidae (n=15), Pentatomidae (n=16), Culicidae (n=14), while the other families detected were between 1 and 7 individuals. The obtained Shannon-Wiener index value was H’= 1.520 which indicated that the diversity level of insects at the observation site was at a moderate level.
Plasma metabolites of Kampung chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) in peatland free-range system with differences of vegetation

Vegetation in free range rearing systems can be obtained from grass or legumes. The aims of this study was to investigate the effect of different vegetation on free range systems in peatlands on plasma metabolites of kampung chickens, including concentration of cholesterol (CHO), triglycerides (TG), and glucose (GLU). This experimental study used two hundred and ten kampung chickens with a completely randomized design of 4 treatments with 5 replications. Each paddock was placed in a portable housing. Twelve kampung chickens aged 5-12 weeks were reared in different types of vegetation with a density of 6.67 m2/head. The treatment without vegetation was reared in the postal housing. At the end of the study, blood was collected from the jungularis vein to observe plasma metabolites. The results showed that the maintenance system and differences in vegetation types had a significant effect (P<0.05) on CHO, TG and GLU. The highest TG was in the Axonopus compressus treatment, GLU was in the Indigofera zollingeriana treatment. while the lowest CHO was in the control or without vegetation. The conclusion of this study was the paddock planted with Indigofera zollingeriana can reduce CHO levels of kampung chickens in addition to control treatment.
Agricultural soil reclamation and restoration of soil organic matter and nutrients via application of organic, inorganic and bio fertilization (Mini review)

Food security is directly related to the ability of the land to support the population. Causes for land degradation are numerous and include the decline of soil fertility, development of acidity, salinization, alkalization, deterioration of soil structure, accelerated wind and water erosion, loss of organic matter and biodiversity. Thereafter, it is of critical importance to increase soil health and restore degraded soils in order to achieve sustainable development. Restoring the soil quality for crop production through the appropriate soil management and conservation techniques is important for all nations, primarily those at risk with respect to food security. Soil organic matter (SOM) plays a central role in maintaining soil functions and preventing soil degradation. Both organic matter and microorganism serve as a reservoir of plant nutrients. This study concluded that soil organic carbon and other mineral and nutrients restoration were noted with the soil modification and incorporation of various organic amendments. Plant residues and field biomass were promising for nutrients replenishment while biochar was the key component for the enrichment of soil organic carbon. Animal-based residues and manure application enhanced soil mineral and micronutrients concentration with the advantage of soil reclamation and restoration.
NGC 6845 Revisited: Stellar Kinematics on the Early Type Member Galaxies

We observed the compact group of galaxies NGC 6845 with GMOS-S imaging and long-slit spectroscopy. The group itself is comprised of two spiral galaxies and two S0 galaxies, and shows signs of gravitational interaction among them. While the spiral galaxies have been already well studied, the two S0 galaxies have received little attention. We investigate the morphology and stellar kinematics of the two S0 galaxies in detail in order to derive the value for their mass and subsequently incorporate them into the mass model for the group. It was found that the internal kinematics of the largest S0 (NGC 6845 C) is mostly regular, while the smallest S0 (NGC 6845 D) shows some hint of interaction, most likely with NGC 6845 C and NGC 6845 A. The new determination of the dynamical mass of the group implies that the group mass has to be 10 times the combined mass of the individual members according to their internal kinematics. The results point to an early stage of the group interaction and also to the possibility that it has still not reached virial equilibrium. From the galaxy evolution viewpoint, this group represents an example of the case of the transformation of Spirals into S0 galaxies in dense environments.
Highly-efficient conversion of methanol to p-xylene over shape-selective Mg–Zn–Si-HZSM-5 catalyst with fine modification of pore-opening and acidic properties

A highly shape-selective catalyst with a relatively long lifetime for methanol aromatization (MTA reaction) was prepared through finely adjusting the pore-opening size and the acidic properties of HZSM-5, depending on the combination of liquid silica deposition with polysiloxane and Zn & Mg loading. XRD, 27Al MAS NMR, TEM, BET, NH3-TPD, Py-IR, TG, GC-MS and probe-molecule reactions were used to reveal the relationship between the modification methods and the catalytic performance. The results showed that silica deposition significantly enhanced the p-xylene (p-X) selectivity in xylene isomers and restrained the formation of larger C9+ aromatic molecules, owing to the narrowing of the pore-openings and the elimination of external acid sites. Further Zn-loading effectively improved the MTA activity of Si-HZSM-5 due to the promotion of the internal Zn-Lewis acid sites with increased density to the dehydrogenation of the intermediates in this reaction. However, the Zn–Si-HZSM-5 catalyst showed poor catalytic stability, which is mainly attributed to the micropore blockage (invalidation of internal acid sites) caused by coke deposition over the strong acid sites inside the channels, which showed strong diffusion-restriction on aromatic molecules at their openings. Fortunately, 1.5% Mg modification selectively reduced the density of the strong acid sites in the channels of Zn–Si-HZSM-5, effectively improving its catalytic stability as the reduction of acidic strength suppressed polyaromatic (coke components) formation at the channel intersections. Moreover, MgO also slightly enhanced the porous shape-selectivity together with the Zn species. As a result, more than 98.9% para-selectivity of xylene and 20.1–21.2% p-X yield were obtained in the 12 h MTA reaction over the highly shape-selective Mg–Zn–Si-HZSM-5 catalyst.
Comparison of Viability and Efficacy of an Immobilized Bacterial Consortium in Four Different Carriers to Degrade Oil

This research aimed to evaluate the storage system’s effect on immobilizing bioremediation agents’ performance in four different carriers (Perlite, Silica, Vermiculite, and Zeolite). Measured parameters were the viability and efficacy of artificial bacterial consortium (Bacillus sp., B. licheniformis, and Enterobacter cloacae) immobilized in the four porous rock carriers by lyophilization. They were stored at room temperature (25-27°C) for three months. The experiment was taken place in a microcosm system with three replicates for 28 days. The results indicate that storage of immobilized bacteria for three months at room temperature will affect their viability. The efficacy of immobilized bacteria in Vermiculite and Perlite reached the highest rate until the first week, 61.44% and 60.18 %, respectively. However, the efficacy in decreasing oil concentration of immobilized cells in the four carriers was almost similar (90.53 – 91.63%), with no significant difference between each other in the late stage. This is very different with control, decreasing oil in only 10.85 - 13.57%, except in control with fertilizer (Cp) supplemented (90.63%). We conclude that bioremediation will improve oil removal. However, storage at room temperature for three months will decrease the performance of these immobilized cells.
Physical meat quality comparison of selected KUB chicken, original Kampung and improved Kampung chicken with in ovo feeding technology

The purpose of this study was to determine the comparison of the quality of native chicken meat. The study used 90 Day old chicken (DOC) three types of native chickens. Chickens were reared for 70 days with ad libitum feeding and drinking water. The method used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 3 treatments and 15 replications. The treatments were P1 (native native chicken, Balitnak superior (KUB)), P2 (ordinary native chicken) and P3 (native chicken in ovo feeding breeds). The parameters measured were the pH value of the meat, water binding capacity, cooking losses, tenderness, and meat color. Research data obtained at pH values P1 (5.92), P2 (5.95), P3 (5.58); water holding capacity (%) P1 (42.6), P2 (37.27), P3 (5.58); cooking losses (%) P1 (18.46), P2 (19.46), P3 (24.86), tenderness (kg/cm2) P1 (0.74), P2 (0.76), P3 (0.94); flesh color L P1 (56.04), P2 (56.60), P3 (54.04), meat color a P1 (5.91), P2 (5.93), P3 (3.82); and meat color b P1 (5.93), P2 (5.98), P3 (5.45). The results showed that although there were differences in pH, water holding capacity, and cooking losses in all treatments, the three of them were still of good quality meat because they had pH values that were still in the normal range and the meat was very tender.

Effect on encapsulated liquid smoke in combination with formic acid on intestinal development and microbial counts in broiler

This research aimed to evaluate the effect of a combination between encapsulated coconut shell liquid smoke and formic acid on intestinal development and microflora population in the broiler. This study was carried out with 140 day old chicks (DOC) of strain Cobb allotted to 5 treatments and 4 replications, namely T0= basal feed added without addition of antibiotic, T1= basal feed added with 0.1% zinc bacitracin, T2=basal feed + 0.5% liquid smoke + 0.5% formic acid, T3=basal feed + 1% liquid smoke+0.5% formic acid, and T4=basal feed + 1.5% liquid smoke+0.5% formic acid. The variable of this research consists of length and weight of small intestine, pH and viscosity of ileal, and the total population of microorganism. Data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). If the data analyses have a significant effect continued with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The results showed that there was no significant differences (P>0.05) effect of treatment on intestinal development and characteristics, but it significantly increased (P<0.01) Lactobacillus and decreased Salmonella sp population. It can be concluded that the combination of encapsulated coconut shell liquid smoke 1.5 % with 0.5% formic acid in the broiler diet did not affect small intestinal development and characteristics, however improved the population of lactobacillus and decrease Salmonella sp. Based on the results might suggest that the combination of encapsulated liquid smoke and formic acid could be replaced the use of antibiotics in broiler feed.
Pre-and Coseismic Analysis of the Mw7.6 Padang Earthquake 2009 from Geodetic Approach

On September 30, 2009, an Mw7.6 earthquake hit the west coast of Sumatra. This main shock caused the crustal deformation affecting a wide area in the western part of Sumatra. This paper presents the analysis of the deformation recorded by the Sumatran GPS Array (SuGAr) network. More than 40 GPS stations were installed to continuously monitor the deformation in Sumatra, among 12 of them is known to have been deformed by this earthquake. We processed whole data in 2009 to understand the dynamics of western part of Sumatra before, during and after the earthquake. Relative daily position data is obtained from postprocessing with GAMIT/GLOBK software, implementing the DGPS technique to estimate daily position from GPS RINEX data. GPS measurements shows that during the earthquake, most stations in Mentawai is deformed toward the southwest direction, varies from 8 – 50 mm, and the stations in mainland Sumatra is deformed toward various direction, varies from 5 – 28 mm. There is no anomaly and strange behaviour before the event as the precursor, and the deformation trend one day after the events seems to return to the preseismic pattern.
Evaluation of scrotal circumference and testosterone levels at different ages of Gayo buffalo as local animal genetic resources

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the scrotum circumference and testosterone levels at various ages of the Gayo buffalo. This study involved 10 Gayo buffalo with four different age groups I: (1.0–2.0), II (2.1–3.0), III (3.1–4.0), IV (4.1–5.0). Blood serum sampling, measurement of scrotal circumference, and age were carried out in Central Aceh regency. The analysis of blood serum testosterone levels was carried out in the physiology laboratory of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Universitas Syiah Kuala. Data on testosterone levels, scrotal circumference, and age were analyzed for variance and continued with Duncan’s Multiple Range Test for data with significant differences. Simple regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between scrotal circumference, age, and testosterone levels. The results of the analysis in the age group and the concentration of the hormone testosterone showed significant differences (P <0.05). The age group of 3.1 to 4.0 years was significantly different from the age group of 1.0–2.0, 2.1–3.0 years, and 4.1–5.0 years. The results of the analysis on the scrotal circumference and testosterone concentration showed no significant difference (P>0.05) in various age groups. There was a significant relationship (P<0.05) between the concentration of the testosterone hormone with age and scrotal circumference, with a regression equation Y= 1.009-0.076X1+0.002X2, with a correlation coefficient (r) of 1 and a coefficient of determination (R2) of 1. These results indicated that scrotal circumference and age greatly influenced the concentration of the testosterone hormone of Gayo buffalo. The conclusion was that age affected the scrotal circumference, but it did not affect the concentration of the testosterone hormone. Gayo buffalo aged 3.1–4.0 and 4.1–5.0 years had a stronger correlation than Gayo buffalo aged 1.0–2.0 and 2.1–3.0 years to scrotal circumference and testosterone concentration.
Supernova neutrino fluxes in HALO-1kT, Super-Kamiokande, and JUNO

When the next galactic core-collapse supernova occurs, we must be ready to obtain as much information as possible. Although many present and future detectors are well equipped to detect νe and νx neutrinos, the detection of the νe species presents the biggest challenges. We assess the impact that a 1 ktonne lead-based detector, such as HALO-1kT, can have in constraining electron neutrino time-integrated fluxes. The study involves the detector taken alone as well as when combined with massive νe-sensitive detectors such as Super-Kamiokande and JUNO. We find that HALO-1kT alone is not able to strongly constrain the emission parameters. When combined with other detectors, however, the orthogonal information might be helpful in improving the νe total emitted energy and mean energy accuracy, up to about 50%, if no other νe-sensitive channel is implemented. A discussion on the reconstruction of νe and νx species, as well as the total emitted energy, is also presented.
Reproductive performance and fertility index of Etawah-crossbred goats based on several parities at goat breeding station-Singosari, Malang, Indonesia

This research aimed to analyze the reproductive efficiency of Etawah-crossbred (PE) goats. Data were collected through a survey method. The research materials were 228 first-parity (P1), 226 second-parity (P2), 147 third-parity (P3), and 73 fourth-parity (P4) heads acquired in 2011–2017. We then observed the service per conception (S/C), days open (DO), conception rate (CR), kidding interval (KI), litter size, birth weight, and fertility index (FI). The obtained data were analyzed with compare means procedure (one-way ANOVA) by using SPSS version 20 and then Least Significant Difference to determine any significant differences. The CR was computed by chi-square test. Results showed that the PE parities significantly affect (P<0.05) the S/C, DO, CR, litter size, and birth weight, but not the KI (P>0.05). The FI was significant on P3 (63.75). Therefore, the reproductive performance of PE goats on several parities based on S/C, DO, CR, litter size, and birth weight was favorable, and P3 had the best reproductive traits according to the FI value.

Currently at IRIAP, MASTER ducks have been produced as stock superior laying ducks. Efforts to maintain consistency its egg production, both of the parent stock of MASTER duck namely the Alabimaster-1 Agrinak and Mojomaster-1 Agrinak ducks have been selected based on egg production. In addition, PMp ducks have been produced as broiler ducks that can be mated with Muscovy to produce mule ducks. The productivity related to the growth and eggs production in those ducks has been widely disclosed, however, information on their reproductive characteristics was still very limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the reproductive characteristics of ducks and white Muscovy that were being developed in IRIAP. The materials in this study were 515 birds consisted of Alabimaster-1, Mojomaster-1, PMp and white Muscovy that were in the layer phase. The variables observed were reproductive characteristics and the growth of ducks in the starter period. The results showed that the fertility obtained was relatively high namely ranging 93% in layer ducks, 85% in PMp ducks and 76% in Muscovy. The hatchability rate of layer ducks was included in the medium category with values ranging 63%. Meanwhile, the hatchability of PMp duck and Muscovy was in the low category, namely 50% and 14% respectively. Embryonic mortality in ducks was relatively moderate, namely 35–37%, while in Muscovy was relatively very high, i.e around 93%. The growth of ducks and Muscovy in starter periode were normal stage.

Sperms motility of Ongole Crossbreed (OC) Bull at various age

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of different ages on characteristics of sperms motility of Ongole Crossbreed (OC) bulls. The material used was 12 PO bulls aged 4–6 years old, distinguished into 2 age groups, namely 4-5 years old (6 heads) and 5–6 years old (6 heads). Collecting semen was done by using an electro ejaculator. Examination of motility (kinetic parameters) used SCA v. 2.1. The parameters measured include: progressive motility, motility, velocity curve linear (VCL), velocity straight linear (VSL), velocity average pathway (VAP), linearity (LIN), straightness (STR), wobble (WOB), amplitude lateral head (ALH), beat cross frequency (BCF) and hyperactivity (H) of sperms. Data were analyzed using a T-test (IBM SPSS 16). The results showed that the value of BCF in the 5–6 years old group was significantly higher (P<0.05) than the 4–5 years old group. The age of the bull affected the sperm’s kinetic parameters (BCF). The 5–6 years old group has a more regular pattern of sperms movement than the 4–5 years old group.
