Published: June 2020

Body measurements and their intercorrelations can be used as initial indicators of measurements, and to estimate chest girth from other body measurements in EG goat females kept under intensive management at one government dairy station in Purwokerto District, Central Java. Samples were Etawah Grade (EG) goat performance-based selection for good EG dairy breeding stocks. The aims of this research were to study characteristics of morphometric, to investigate intercorrelation among body females specified as breeding stocks of dairy goat type kept under intensive management of the Government Dairy Breeding Station at BBPTU Baturraden, Purwokerto District, Central Java. A total of 50 EG females between the ages of 1-6 years old were measured for some body measurements. Averages of body measurements of the observed EG goat females increased by the ages. The averages of body sizes at the ages of 2 years old for SH, HH, BL, CG, and HG were successively 75.0±11.1 cm, 79.8±1.8 cm, 65.3±1.8 cm, 77.0±3.9 cm, and 82.8±0.4 cm. At the mature ages (5 years old), compared to the young ones (2 years old), EG females had higher values of SH, HH, BL, CG, and HG by 6.3%, 1.8%, 17.9%, 18.0%, and 16.3%.CG had the highest correlation to HG (rs = 0.837-0.858) and CG was accurately predicted by HG or by the combination of HG to other body sizes. High intercorrelations were found among certain body measurement(s) of the EG dairy goat females.

Published: June 2020

Bovine Citrullinaemia (BC) disease is a genetic disorder that causes increased ammonia in the blood circulation and lethal. In order not to spread the disease, it is advisable to avoid the spread of Bovine Citrullinaemia (BC) disease-carrying alleles in the dairy cow population. This study aims to identify the distribution of allele carriers of Bovine Citrullinaemia (BC) in dairy cows in the Enrekang regency using PCR-RFLP method. A total of 80 DNA samples originating from the dairy development center in Enrekang (50 heads from Cendana and 30 heads from Angeraja district). DNA samples were amplified by PCR, PCR products were then cut using AvaII restriction enzymes. Identification of BC alleles carriers were calculated based on genotype and allele frequencies. These research found that about 0.6% of Bovine Citrullinaemia recessive allele frequencies in Enrekang and still relatively very low. Although the frequency of BC alleles identified is quite low (0.6), the spread of these alleles needs to be anticipated because they can influence the development of dairy cattle populations in the future. It is necessary to identify local cows in South Sulawesi to prevent the spread of BC genetic disorders in the population thereby reducing losses to farmers.

Coconut meal as a feed ingredient and source of prebiotic for poultry
Authors: Sundu B , Hatta U , Mozin S , Toana N , Hafsah  , Marhaeni  , Sarjuni S
Published: June 2020

The low quality protein of coconut meal, coupled with high fibre content, leads to limited use of this agricultural by-product in the poultry diet. Attempts to maximize the amount of coconut meal included in the broiler feed have been made through amino acids supplementation, enzyme addition and pelleting coconut meal. Among these feed technologies and manipulation, pelleting coconut meal appears to be more powerful in promoting the growth of broiler chickens. The reasons for the improvement of broiler growth due to pelleting coconut meal have not been established yet. The mechanisms of improved growth of birds might be through increased feed intake, less energy spent and increased bulk density. Coconut meal contains a high concentration of mannose – based polysaccharides or mannan. This substance has long been believed to have prebiotic properties due to its capability to bind certain species of pathogenic bacteria in the digestive tract of birds. Voluminous reports of the positive effects of mannose-based polysaccharides from yeast have been published. Mannose –based polysaccharides from legumes, on the other hand, have been reported to have anti-nutrient property. Surprisingly, mannose-based polysaccharides from coconut behave like yeast mannan. A number of current studies indicated that mannose based polysaccharides improved body weight gain and feed digestibility. The growth of birds was negatively impacted when the birds were challenged against pathogenic bacteria of E. coli. Wet droppings and diarrhea incidences were not found in E. coli-challenged birds when the diets were supplemented with coconut mannan. In conclusions, coconut meal can be used as a feed ingredient for poultry unless the coconut meal was pelleted or enzymatically treated. Mannose-based polysaccharide from coconut was effective to promote growth and acted as prebiotic.

Published: June 2020

In the first days after hatch, the development of organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, and the growth performance may be affected by the time in between hatch and first feed intake. In current practice, time between hatch and moment of first feed intake may take long time because of variation in hatch time, chick handling, and transportation time. Feed deprivation, especially during the first days after hatch, depresses intestinal development on the short and long term, reflected by a lower intestinal weight, shorter length, lower enzymatic activity, altered villi and crypt cell density, and lower crypt depths and villi heights and finally, depressed growth. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of the moment of first feed intake after hatch on intestinal development and growth performance of broiler chickens. A total 60 unsexed day-old Lohmann broiler chicks were randomly assigned into 3 treatments of 20 chicks each in four replicates (5 chicks each). The treatments were time first feed and water access after hatch, including 12, 42 and 72 hours. Body weight gain and feed intake were recorded weekly and the intestinal development were sampled at 12 days for the measurement of ileum histology and length of gastrointestinal tract. Results obtained were as follows: Time between hatch and moment of first feed intake had no significant effect (P> 0.05) on width of the villi. However, the height of villi, depth of the crypt dan length of the gastrointestinal tract were significantly affected by treatment. The longer delay in the provision of feed and water in day-old chick were lower height of villi and depth of the crypt, dan shorter length of the gastrointestinal tract. Statistically, performance parameters had any difference among treatments, except for feed conversion. The final body weight and feed intake decreased with increasing time between hatch and moment of first feed intake. The results suggest that early delivery of first feed can influence development and growth of gastrointestinal tract. It is also beneficial to improve posthatch growth performance of broiler chickens.

The treatments in this study are as follows: A0: 5 days, A1: 10 days, A2: 15 days, A3: 20 days, A4: 25 days. The results obtained are the rearing period that significantly affect the levels of dry matter, crude fat, and crude protein of black soldier fly maggot (Hermetia illucens) and doesn’t have significant effect on crude fibre levels. The rearing period of 25 days (A4) has the highest dry matter content that is 30.47%. Crude fat at 25 days rearing time (A4) is 34.09% significantly higher than A0 (22.09%), A1 (24.82%) and A2 (26.79%). Maggot with a rearing period of 20 days (A3) has the highest crude fibre content of the other treatments that is 10.50% and the lowest is A0 (9.07%). The A0 (49.91%) treatment is significantly higher than A2, A3, and A4. The longer the rearing period of Hermetia illucens maggot, the level of dry matter, crude fat and crude fibre tends to increase. However, the crude protein decrease, although not significantly.

The study was conducted to examine the effects of supplementation of crude cellulase produced from Trichoderma viride–fermented copra meal (CM) on nutrient digestibility, apparent metabolizable energy (AME), digestive organ weight, protein, and cholesterol content of breast meat of broiler chickens. A total of 200 day-old-male broiler chickens were used. The birds were fed with 5 different diets; T-1 = 0 g/kg CM, T-2 = 50 g/kg CM + crude enzymes, T-3 = 100 g/kg CM + crude enzymes, T-4 = 150 g/kg CM + crude enzymes and T-5 = 200 g/kg CM + crude enzymes. Feed digestibility, digestive organ weight, protein, and cholesterol content of breast meat were determined as parameters. On day 35, two birds from each replication were placed into metabolism cages for digestibility measurement. A completely randomized design was adopted with five treatments and five replications. The digestibility of protein, crude fiber, AME of the diets, and cholesterol content of the breast meat of broiler chickens fed the rations with crude enzyme addition were better than those of birds fed the T-1. The response of protein and crude fiber digestibility was curvilinearly over the increasing levels of CM in the diets and crude enzyme addition. Digestive organs weight, protein, and lipid percentages of the breast meat were not affected by the treatments. Supplementation of increasing CM diets with crude enzymes from Trichoderma viride produced higher protein, crude fiber digestibility, and AME of the diets and lower cholesterol content of breast meat.

Published: June 2020

The research was conducted to measure the level of farmer’s household food security in Moncongloe Bulu village, Maros South Sulawesi. The research was mainly focused on the food supply, food accessibility, food utilization, and the food consumption in connection with the national standard of food consumption recommended by government of Indonesia. Survey method was used to collect primary data as well as secondary data based on questioner to interview 30 household in the village. Descriptively analysis was employed to obtain a scientific conclusion of the research. The result of this research suggested that the level of food security of household in the Moncongloe Bulu village was very high (32%). The average food consumption of energy (2.485 kcal/capita/d) and total protein (84.5 g/capita/d) of household in Moncongloe Bulu villages were higher than that of national standard recommended by government of Indonesia. It was also found that the food security was closely correlated with food consumption, purchasing ability which influenced by household income, job availability, level of education of father as well as mother in each of household. To get extra job available during their spare time was the way of the farmers to increase their income and to improve their accessibility to food and to finally improve their quality of life. In conclusion, the level of food security of household in Moncongloe Bulu village were very high. The level of food security determined the level of food consumption which is affected by household income, availability of job, and the level of education. It is suggested that the cause of food insecurity is not only determined by the degree of food supply itself, but it may also be caused by the lack of a good governance implementation, food distribution, and the effort in empowering the farmers.

Cooperation-based partnership model with the partnership of authorities solution for improving broiler agribusiness partnership systems in increasing partner income
Authors: Ridwan M , Kasim K
Published: June 2020

This study aims to describe the cooperative-based broiler agribusiness partnership model and the role of the partnership authority as an alternative solution to improve the performance of the broiler agribusiness partnership system in increasing the income of partner farmers. This research was conducted in South Sulawesi with a quantitative descriptive approach based on expert judgment. The results of the study show that the concept of a vertically integrated partnership is not a guarantee of the creation of the expected partnership, as long as the partnership model has the main motive of the business to seek and obtain maximum benefits, the results will not be maximized. The cooperative-based broiler chicken agribusiness partnership model is a partnership development model in which the role of the core company that has been controlled by livestock production facility producers is expected to experience a balance change set by the partnership authority. With the cooperative-based partnership model, the position of farmers who have only been and enjoying income in the farming sub-system will have the opportunity to obtain a share of income in the upstream sector through the distribution of the remaining business results from cooperative membership so that the potential for increased income is wider. Thus theoretically, if the concept runs well, it is expected that it will be a solution to the problem of developing broiler chicken agribusiness partnerships so far that seem unable to be controlled by existing institutions and unable to provide broad income increases for partners and their stakeholders, of course assuming that the concept works ideally with the support of all components involved in it without the intervention of political behavior as has been feared so far where a number of parties accuse political interests playing behind this industry.

Published: June 2020

The success of the group is indirectly supported by the potential for social capital within the individual members of the group. Strong social capital will increase the effectiveness of a group in achieving a goal and reduce pressure within the group because each member feels comfortable in his group. For this reason, to form an institution, social capital is needed to strengthen the farmer groups. Social capital is related to cooperation in achieving group and government goals. In social capital there are norms and elements that play a very important role in group dynamics. The purpose of this study is to identify the dynamics of beef cattle breeders in the Village of Massamaturue Kec. Polongbangkeng North, Takalar District. The type of data used in this study are; Qualitative data which includes group dynamics. Research data were collected through surveys with interview techniques, focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. The results showed the dynamics of beef cattle breeders in Massamaturue Village, Polongbangkeng North District, Takalar Regency included in the sufficient category. Group dynamics that are approaching good are good enough for group development and maintenance that is equal to 116, while for group atmosphere and task functions that are equal to 76 and 68. It can be concluded that the lack of a companion role in providing direction and function of the chairman in creating a network of social capital in institutional adjustment, so that the group is still less dynamic which in the future will have a negative impact.

The objective of this study was to examine the causes of low pregnancy rate in beef cattle through artificial insemination in the 2018 UPSUS SIWAB program in Soppeng Regency. This type of study was exploratory by involving three informants who were considered to know clearly the causes of low pregnancy rate in beef cattle through artificial insemination in the 2018 UPSUS SIWAB program in Soppeng Regency. The informants were beef cattlle farmers, inseminator, and the staff of the animal livestock services of Soppeng Regency. The data obtained were analyzed qualitatively using the Delphi method. The results of this study showed that four main factors were obtained, i.e. the motivation of beef cattlle farmers for pregnancy diagnosis to their cows by inseminator was still low, the semi-intensive beef cattle maintenance system was not carried out well even some farmers were still maintaining an extensive maintenance system, the location of the beef cattlle farmers house was difficult to reach by inseminator, and farmers knowledge about the detection of estrous was still low and subsequently resulted low pregnancy rate through artificial insemination in the 2018 UPSUS SIWAB program in Soppeng Regency.

Authors: Tenrisanna V , Kasim S N
Published: June 2020

This article aims to discuss trends and forecast meat production and consumption for 2027 in Indonesia by using different statistical forecasting methods. Forecasting of meat production and consumption is important to be carried out so that food security development can be planned strategically in the future. Meat production and consumption are observed in the period from 1990 to 2017. The types of meat analyze including beef, poultry, sheep and pork. Based on the seasonality and trend data, the forecasting methods used are Double Exponential smoothing and Holt-Winters seasonal smoothing. All data is analyzed using STATA software. The accuracy of forecasting is examined based on the root mean squared error. Accordingly, the Double Exponential smoothing method is more accurate than the Holt-Winters seasonal smoothing method in predicting meat production and consumption for 2027 in Indonesia. Overall, meat production and consumption are projected to increase by 4,449,286 tonnes and 5,061,993 tonnes respectively. Hence, meat consumption is higher than meat production. Therefore, livestock technology innovation should be carried out thoroughly in the fields of breeding, processing/production, marketing and increasing the capacity of human resources both farmers and extension workers to produce livestock products efficiently and effectively.

This study aims to evaluate the stock of shortfin scads fish in the marine waters of Flores, South Sulawesi. The research conducted from April to September 2019 using a survey method for pelagic fishing gear in Flores Sea of South Sulawesi. Data collection was carried out through interviews using a questionnaire and direct measurement of caught fish. Research locations include the districts of Jeneponto, Bantaeng, Bulukumba and Selayar. Time series data on the number of fishing gear and catches for 10 years is calculated using the Microsoft excel program package. Result of this study showed that the actual production condition of the use of shortfins scads fish in the waters of the Flores Sea, South Sulawesi has exceeded the limits of the maximum sustainable potential and optimum sustainable yield. The optimal production is in OSY conditions of 31054.11 tons and the fishing effort of 102 purse seine units. To maintain the sustainability of elevated fisheries resources in the Flores Sea, required 59.5% reduction in fishing effort. The implication of the results of this study is the reduction of fishing units accompanied by the application of strict law enforcement so that the sustainability of short fin scads fish resources can be maintained.

Published: June 2020

In the pattern of livestock keeping systems, livestock can have free access path to natural resources such as forests, scrubs, water, natural shading, wastes, and residues. How they use and do interact with land use systems particularly the pigs, become the focus of this assessment. the study areas will cover four districts, i.e. Warmare, Prafi, Masni and Sidey. The total areas of study therefore is 1,022.67 km2 (102,266.54 ha). Data collected from BPS board of Manokwari, Papua Barat. Data were analyzed using Statistical descriptive and shown in tables. Pictures were drawn using Arc GIS and Microsoft Visio. There are 11 types of land use systems which have roles in ecosystem and livestock-human interaction. Land use was dominated by tropical forest and followed by oil palm plantation, communal land, transmigrate areas and arable land. Beef cattle present dominantly the land use systems in agro-complex of Prafi, followed by pigs and goat. Further study is needed to prove the effect of interaction on sustainability indicators, i.e. society, economic and environment.

Initiation and disassembly of filopodia tip complexes containing VASP and lamellipodin
Authors: Cheng Karen W. , Mullins R. Dyche
Published: June 2020

Clustering of the actin polymerase VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein) reorganizes leading-edge actin filaments into filopodia bundles in crawling cells. Here, we use live-cell microscopy to image the earliest events in VASP clustering and find that initiation depends on interactions with lamellipodin and barbed ends, while disassembly is driven by size-dependent instability.

Published: June 2020

Objectives

Special AT-rich binding protein 2 (SATB2) immunohistochemistry (IHC) has high sensitivity and specificity for colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC), but data on its expression in specific subsets of pulmonary, gastric, small bowel, and pancreatobiliary adenocarcinomas (ADCAs) are relatively limited or discordant. We assessed SATB2 expression in a large cohort of ADCAs from these sites to determine its reliability in distinguishing CRC from them.

Methods

SATB2 IHC was performed on 335 neoplasms, including 40 lung ADCAs, 165 pancreatobiliary neoplasms (34 intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms [IPMNs], 19 pancreatic ADCAs, 112 cholangiocarcinomas [CCs]), and 35 gastric, 13 small bowel, 36 ampullary (AMP), and 46 CRC ADCAs. The cases were evaluated for positivity (defined as ≥5% nuclear staining), and an H-score was calculated based on the percentage of SATB2+ cells and staining intensity. Analysis was performed to determine the optimal H-score threshold to separate CRC and non-CRC.

Results

SATB2 was positive in 3% of lung, 2% of CC, 17% of gastric, 38% of small bowel, and 6% of AMP ADCAs. All pancreatic ADCA/IPMNs were negative, and 87% CRCs were positive.

Conclusions

SATB2 is not entirely specific for colorectal origin and can be expressed in a subset of gastrointestinal ADCAs. It is most useful in the differential of CRC vs lung and pancreatobiliary ADCAs.
