Abstract
This study aims to improve the production performance of Murrah buffalo which covers average weight gain, feed consumption, and feed conversion by increasing probiotic feed. The research was conducted on the herd of Murrah buffalo at Kelok Rambai, Kapau Village, West Sumatera, Indonesia. Fifteen Murrah buffaloes with three to five years of age were used in the research. There were three treatments conducted including P1 = basal feed + probiotics; P2 = P1 + concentrate (cassava leaf pellet); and P3 = P1 + commercial concentrate (pellet). All three treatments were also given 7 cc/head/month of probiotics. The results of the study with probiotic feeding on Murrah buffalo showed the average feed consumption of P2 (36.55), P3 (35.99), P1 (35.74) and daily weight gain (DWG) P2 (1.09 kg/head/day), P3 (0.91 kg/head/day), P1 (0.55 kg/head/day) did not show a significant difference, while in feed conversion, P2 (0.68 ), P1 (0.46), P3 (0. 31) it showed a significant difference (p>0.05). This study concludes that the provision of basal ration plus cassava leaf pellets showed significant results on feed conversion in Murrah buffalo but did not show significant differences in feed consumption and DWG. However, it showed a substantial enough average of P2 that could be used as a feed supplement in Murrah buffalo.

Abstract
Prolactin is a polypeptide hormone, encoded by the prolactin (PRL) gene, synthesized and secreted by anterior pituitary, and affecting milk yield and composition. β-Lactoglobulin (BLG) is the major whey proteinin the milk of ruminants. This study was conducted to identify the PRL and LGB genes polymorphism in the Indonesian FH cattle. A total of 139 individual cattle blood samples from West Java were used to obtain DNA samples through the DNA extraction process. Identification of the PRL and LGB genes was performed using PCR-RFLP method with RsaI (PRL gene) and HaeIII (BLG gene) restriction enzymes. The PRL gene was amplified using forward primer 5’-ccaaatccactgaattatgctt-3’ and reverse primer 5’-acagaaatcacctctctcattca-3’. The BLG gene was amplified using forward primer 5’-tgtgctggacaccgactacaaaaag-3’ and reverse primer 5’-gctcccggtatatgaccaccctct-3’. The PRL and BLG genes in the Indonesia FH cattle were polymorphic based on the PCR-RFLP analysis but the heterozygosity value was low. There were two alleles (G and A) and three genotypes (GG, GA, and AA) identified in the PRL gene of the Indonesian FH cattle with genotype frequencies were 0.914, 0.079, and 0,007 for GG, GA, and AA genotypes respectively. There were two genotypes (CC and CG) identified in the BLG gene with genotype frequencies were 0.91 (CC), and 0.09 (CG). Information about the PRL and BLG genes polymorphism in this study can be considered for further study to analyse its association with milk yield trait.

Abstract
This research aimed to evaluate the use of body measurements (chest girth (CG), body length (BL), and shoulder height (SH)) to predict live body weight (BW) of Simmental bulls in Lembang Artificial Insemination Center, West Java. This research was carried out in December 2019 using a survey method of which all Simmental bulls aged 1—12 years were used in this study. Data were analyzed using simple and multiple correlations and regression models using the R program. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze correlation between BW and body measurements, while to find the fittest and more parsimonious regression model we used determination coefficient (R2) and stepwise regression analysis as criteria of selection. The results showed that the average of BW, CG, BL, and SH were 814.54 ± 144.18 kg, 215.72 ± 16.50 cm, 170.13 ± 17.09 cm, and 142.79 ± 11.01 cm, respectively. The results of this study also indicated that CG, BL, and SH positively and significantly correlated with BW, with correlation value of 0.90, 0.85, and 0.79, respectively. Combination of CG, BL, and SH produced the highest correlations value (r = 0.92) with the fittest regression model for predicting BW, namely BW=-888.64 + 4.21*CG + 2.83*BL + 2.20*SH, with R2 of 0.86.

Abstract
Mastitis is a common disease in small ruminant industry. The present study aimed to determine the presence of protease activated receptor-2 (PAR2) mRNA expression in the mammary gland of mastitis challenged goats. 30 clinically healthy mix breed lactating goats were divided into three groups, consisting of Staphylococcus aureus (Group 1), methicillin-resistant S. aureus (Group 2) and sterile phosphate-buffered saline (Control) groups. The data regarding physical condition of udder and clinical parameters of goats were recorded while milk samples and mammary gland tissues were collected at 24 and 48 hours post infection. Somatic cell count (SCC) was measured by direct microscopic method. The presence of PAR2 mRNA in the mammary gland tissue samples was detected by real-time PCR. Goats from group 1 developed mild to moderate clinical signs while Group 2 exhibited moderate to severe clinical signs. SCC was higher in both challenged groups than control group. PAR2 mRNA expression was detected in all mammary gland samples from Group 1 and Group 2. The gene expression was significantly highly in mammary gland tissue with severe clinical signs. The finding of PAR2 expression in caprine mammary gland is novel and important, suggesting serine proteases involved the development of mastitis in goat.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate effects of using different levels of cassava meal in a concentrate cassava peel diet on chemical composition, in vitro gas production (IVGP) and rumen fermentation. The treatments applied were: A=cassava peel (20%)+ cassava meal (70%)+cassava leaves (5%)+moringa leaves (5%); B=cassava peel (20%)+ cassava meal (60%)+cassava leaves (10%)+moringa leaves (10%); C=cassava peel (20%)+ cassava meal (50%)+cassava leaves (15%)+moringa leaves (15%) cassava meal; D=cassava peel (20%)+ cassava meal (40%)+cassava leaves (20%)+moringa leaves (20%); E=cassava peel (20%)+ cassava meal (30%)+cassava leaves (25%)+moringa leaves (25%) with 3 replications arranged in a Randomized Block Design (RBD). The result showed that the increasing levels of cassava meal in the ration significantly increased organic matter (OM) and nitrogen-free extract (NFE) content (P<0.05), but reduced crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and acid detergent fiber (ADF) contents. Similarly, a significant increased (P<0.01) were found in values of cumulative in vitro gas production, dry matter and organic matter digestibility, but decreased NH3 concentration (P<0.05) due to the increased of cassava meal. It is concluded that increasing levels of cassava meal in concentrate has led to higher OM content of the ration and being available for rumen fermentation.

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate local forage’s potential and nutritional content in the Payo agro-tourism area of Solok, West Sumatra, Indonesia, to be used as a ruminant feed. This study used a survey method by taking a sample of the forage that grows a lot in the area and then analyzed its nutritional content. The nutritional content analyzed were dry matter, ash, crude protein, crude fiber, crude fat, calcium, and phosphorus minerals. At the same time, the TDN value and the extracted material without nitrogen were calculated based on the formula. The results showed that 12 types of forage have the potential as ruminant feed, namely Panicum maximum, Tithonia diversifolia, Gliricidia sepium, Digitaria sp, Centrocema pubescens, Calliandra calothyrsus, Stachytarpheta jamaicensis, Bidens pilosa, Ipomea triloba, Micania Scandens, Asystasia gangetica, and corn straw. This study shows that Calliandra calothyrsus has the highest crude protein content, and Corn straw contains the lowest crude protein. The highest and lowest TDN values were Gliricidia sepium and Panicum maximum, respectively. Through the linear programming program, these 12 plants can be formulated into 4 ration formulations with 58% TDN and 15-16% crude protein.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
An experiment with the objective to investigate the effect of different temperature regimes during heat treatment of Gliricidia sepium leaves was conducted following a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 3 replications. Gliricidia leaves were exposed to three temperature regimes namely oven heating at 60oC (T60), 90oC (T90), and 120oC (T120) respectively and followed by sun-drying compared to sun drying as control (Con). The dry matter and protein degradation were measured using In Sacco method in three fistulated Bali cows fed a standard diet. Protein solubility (a) and the insoluble but potentially degradable fraction (b) were linearly reduced (P<0,001) by the increased temperature in the oven as compared to sun drying. The degradation rate (c) of protein in the rumen was increased at all heating treatments. The effective dry matter and protein degradation of gliricidia leaf was significantly (P<0,01) reduced by heat treatment in T90 and no further reduction in T120. The solubility fraction of DM was significantly reduced (P<0.05) when heated in the oven at 120oC, meanwhile the b value for DM linearly decline with the increasing heating temperature. Heating also increased the lag time required for the degradation to commence. It, therefore, can be concluded that oven drying at 90oC is a simple effective means to reduce ruminal protein degradation of gliricidia leaves.

Abstract
The present experiment aimed to investigate the effect of introducing different pasture legumes on the growth profile and forage production of the selected native pasture grass species at different stages of growth. In a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 5 replications, the mixture of Sorghum plumosum (SP) and Bothriochloa pertusa (BP) was introduced respectively with one of the forage legumes ie. Alysicarpus vaginalis (AV), Pueraria phasoloides (PP), Desmodium incanum (DI), and Clitoria ternatea (CT). Growth profile and forage production were measured at 40, 60, and 80 days after planting. Results showed that CT and PP significantly improved the growth and DM production of SP and suppressed (P<0.05) the growth of BP during the early vegetative stage but did not during the late vegetative stage. Introduction of legumes reduced (P<0.05) DM production of SP and the total forage production but improved (P<0.001) the DM production of B. pertusa as well as a leaf:stem ratio of both types of grass at the generative stage. PP had the highest (P<0.05) contribution of legumes to the total DM forage production during early and vegetative stages, meanwhile AV and DI during the generative stage. In conclusion, the introduction of forage legumes did not improve the DM production of both grass species but modify their growth profile toward a better quality as shown by increased leaf:stem ratio. P. phasoloides provide the highest foliage during the vegetative stage and A. vaginalis and D. incanum during the generative stage.
Gaseous ozone to improve quality of corn as feedstuff

Published: November 2021

Abstract
In the long term, fungi attacks will cause a decrease in the quality of corn during storage. In this case, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus have become a serious concern related to food safety because of their ability to produce aflatoxins which are toxic to humans and animals. Nowadays, feed industries use fungicides to control fungal infections before the storage period due to their affordability, but the chemical residues are detrimental to our health. Therefore, an alternative method was needed to prevent and control fungi and aflatoxin formation in corn. One of the potential methods to apply is the gaseous ozonization. This research was conducted to investigate the potential of ozone in preventing fungal attacks and aflatoxin formation in corn, assuring that the corn quality can be maintained during the storage period. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of ozone on maintaining the quality of corn during storage, especially to reduce fungi colonies and aflatoxin formation. The experimental design used in this study was a completely randomized design with two treatment factors, namely temperature (20, 30, and 40°C) and exposure time (30 and 60 minutes). Corn quality parameters observed include moisture content, total fungal, moldy kernels, damaged kernels, and aflatoxin (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, AFG2) contamination. The results showed that ozone treatment had an effect on reducing total fungal and aflatoxin contamination in corn, however, it had no effect on the moisture content, moldy kernels, and damaged kernels of corn. The optimum effect was obtained when the ozonization was conducted at a temperature of 20°C for 60 minutes exposure time, which results in the highest reduction in total fungal and total aflatoxin contamination of 36.77% and 92.45% respectively.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
The cause of global warming is the increasing carbon concentration arising from industrial activities, burning of fossils, and land-use change. The purpose of this research was to find out the allometric equation to calculate the local bamboo biomass and then to be able to calculate how much carbon sequestration at bamboo riparian forest since this area was rarely being explored. The parameters observed were the height and diameter of the bamboo stem at 1.3 m height of 6 types of local bamboo using destructive sampling, along with the measurement of bamboo weight. The carbon content of the bamboo biomass, litter, and soil was measured to complement the estimation of total carbon sequestration. The results showed that the allometric equation for estimating local bamboo biomass is Y=0.6396 X1.6162 with R2=0.77, obtained from the relationship equations between dry weight and the diameter. Total carbon sequestration of this system ranged between 81 to 215 tons C ha−1.
Determinants of environmental performance: Evidence from the agriculture industry in Indonesian Stock Exchange

Published: November 2021

Abstract
This study aims to examine the determinants of environmental performance on the firms listed in the agriculture sector of the Indonesian Stock Exchange. The analysis technique uses multiple regressions to observe 67 firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange in the agriculture sector during 2016 – 2019. Furthermore, the independent variables consist of return on equity (ROE), firm age, size, leverage, and audit firm; and the dependent is environmental performance. The result shows that return on equity negatively affects environmental performance while firm age, size, and leverage have a positive effect. Furthermore, audit firm does not affect environmental performance in Indonesian Agricultural Firms. Therefore, firms with higher age, bigger sizes, and leverage will likely increase environmental performance even though profitability has decreased. Several factors such as firm age, size, leverage, and profitability should be considered to analyze environmental performance.
