Published: November 2021

Abstract
This study aims to estimate the Most Probable Producing Ability (MPPA) values of semen quality in five Bali cattle bull that collected from January to October 2016 at Singosari AI Center. The semen quality parameter consists of semen volume (ml), motility (%), concentration (x106), and total sperm (x106/ml) observed in rainy and dry season. Data were analyzed using intraclass correlation to estimate the repeatability and MPPA values. The average of semen quality in rainy and dry seasons, respectively, in volume were 3.91-6.24 ml and 4.38-6.84 ml, motility was 46.31-70.00% and 48.26-70.45%, semen concentrations were 844.78-1059.02 × 106/ml and 1033.15-1260.16 × 106/ml, and total sperm were 3280.58-5964.50 × 106 and 4493.31-7206.96×106. In this study, dry season shows better semen quality parameter as well as the repeatability value, therefore the estimation of MPPA in dry season is more accurate compared to rainy season.

Abstract
We studied the systematic factors and individual variation affecting litter size in the crossbreds between Boer and Jawarandu goat. The data were obtained from the records of litter size of Boerja goats from 2012 to 2015. The systematic factors consisted of season and year of birth, doe breeds and the kid’s sex; along with individual data including pedigree, date of birth, and parental breeds. The data consisted of 107 Boer does, 687 Jawarandu does, and 495 Boerja does with a total of 3804 kids. A linear model was developed to account the effect of systematic factors on litter size of Boerja goats. Later, a mixed model was solved with Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) method to estimate the individual variations on litter size. The results showed that litter size trait in goat was influenced by doe breed (P<0.05). Individual variation of this trait was also high (46%). Based on this research, it can be concluded that litter size of Boer goats and their crosses were affected by the doe’s breed with high individual variation. Doe’s selection is potential to improve liter size in goat crossbred population in the future.

Abstract
In vitro and in vivo testing for ruminant feed efficiency can be done by utilizing the stable isotope Nitrogen-15 (15N) as a tracer. Feed can be traced by labeling the forage using isotope 15N. Feed crops are labeled using an isotope 15N-enriched fertilizer. The critical thing to note is to know the content of isotopes 15N in the part of forage feed plants that have been labeled. This research aims to know the effect of urea fertilizer on the percent of atom excess 15N on corn. Corn are labeled using urea enriched with isotopes 15N in the form of urea fertilizer (10% excess atom 15N) with different doses (0-200% recommended urea dose). As a control used corn plants given urea fertilizer is not labeled 15N. The results showed that corn forage feed was successfully labeled and correlated with the dose of fertilizer. The range of atom excess 15N was 4.28 – 6.99% in corn forage. Biomass production showed no significant difference between the dose of fertilization and control, but neither protein content. Based on data, the corn forage can be used for further testing.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
This research aims to evaluate the use of different filler levels of taro meal on the physical quality of chicken patties containing red beans (Vigna angularis). Patties produced from chicken meat with the ratio of red bean flour and taro flour as filler substitution for tapioca flour are 15:0 (CP0), 15:3 (CP1), 10:0 (CP2), 10:3 (CP3), 5:0 (CP4), and 5:3 (CP5). The analysis showed a significant difference in the tenderness (P<0.01), the value of pH, cooking loss, and water holding capacity (P<0.05) of patties. The addition of taro flour can increase the tenderness value of chicken patties. Reducing the amount of red beans resulted in a decrease in the pH value of chicken patties, but the increase in the use of taro meal did not result in a difference in the pH value. The highest cooking loss was achieved with the use of 5% red beans without taro meal. The highest water holding capacity of patties produced was obtained with a ratio of red bean and taro meal of 5:3. The conclusion is that adding 10% red beans and 3% taro flour red beans increased the physical quality of chicken patties and can be accepted by consumers.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
The impact of dietary supplementation of a vegetable source of n-3 fat in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n-3) on the accumulation of n-3 fatty acids in plasma chicken was investigated. Sixty unsexed one-day-old broiler chickens were randomly allocated to six diets (n=10 birds/diet) for 4 weeks. The birds were fed a proprietary starter commercial feed for the first two days after hatch. Six dietary treatments ranging in fat content from 5 to 10% were prepared by supplementing the basal diet with vegetable oils. The ALA levels varied from 1 to 8% energy (%en). The n-6 fatty acid linoleic acid (LA, 18:2n-6) level was limited to less than 5%en. Results showed that the metabolites of dietary ALA, EPA, DPA, and DHA in plasma tissues increased in a curvilinear manner as dietary ALA increased, achieving 3- to 13-fold compared to the levels in the control birds (P<0.001). The total PUFA content of plasma samples increased (P<0.001) due to increasing the diets’ ALA content, achieving 41.20% of the total fatty acids when the LA to ALA ratio of diets was at the lowest level. The increase in total PUFA was mainly due to an increase in total n-3 PUFA.

Abstract
This study aims to determine the effect of individual variations on litter weight in Boer and Jawarandu goat crossbreed in CV. Kambing Burja (farm), East Java. Records from 2012 to 2015 consisted of breed of does, date of birth, litter size and birth weight of kids; along with individual identity, season and year of birth were obtained. There were 107 Boer, 687 Jawarandu, and 495 Boerja does with a total of 3804 kids in the records. Data analysis was conducted using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) incorporating the factors of season of birth (rainy and dry season) and doe’s breed (Boer, Jawarandu, and Boerja F1). Mixed model analysis using Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) method was used to estimate the individual variations. The results showed that both doe’s breed and season of birth had a significant effect (p<0.05) on litter weight; while the individual variations contributed 36.28% to the total variance. We concluded that the individual variation of litter weight was considerably high which reflects high genetic diversity within each breed. Hence, selection to improve the reproductive performance of these goats is highly possible.

AbstractThis study evaluated kampung chickens’ growth rate and production performance in extensive and semi-intensive rearing in Central Java, Indonesia. The survey method was employed for this study. The targets used in the study were kampung chicken farmers in the Banyumas and Kebumen areas. The survey method is carried out by collecting data, observing and measuring population, production performance, including meat and egg production. The data obtained, processed, and presented in the tables and graphs, calculated the population and production of chicken to evaluate its growth. The performance of chicken production, including egg production, egg weight, number of eggs hatched, and hatchability, was analyzed using general linear model (GLM) analysis. The result showed a 1.9% growth rate of the native chicken population, in which the hens outnumbered the roosters. The meat and egg production growth rates were 8.2% and 6.8%, respectively, between 2016 and 2020 in Central Java. Native chickens kept under semi-intensive maintenance produced more eggs than those in an extensive system. Conclusively, native chicken of Central Java experienced growth in population and production of meat and egg. The semi-intensive system, compared to the extensive system, had a higher rate of eggs production.

Abstract
Kikuyu (Pennisetum clandestinum Hochst. ex Chiov) is an important forage containing high crude protein for livestock. Molecular analysis of kikuyu relies on high yields of pure DNA and suitable PCR conditions. This research aimed to extract DNA from kikuyu based on weight of the sample and amplify the DNA of Burangrang accession using specific primers. 100 grams and 200 grams leaves of 3 accessions of kikuyu from Burangrang, Bukit Tunggul, and Tangkuban Perahu were extracted by Qiagen Mini Kit Plant. Concentration and purity of DNA were analyzed by NanoDrop Spectrophotometer 2000. DNA from Burangrang accession was amplified using six specific primers at different annealing temperatures. The result showed that the yield of DNA ranged 2.2 µg/µl to 21.4 µg/µl and the purity (ratio) were 1.08 to 2.01. Bukit Tunggul and Burangrang accession showed the same interaction pattern on the sample weight for concentration and purity. One hundred grams of leaves from Burangrang accession produce the highest concentration and the best purity of DNA, but no difference between other weight and accession. Reproducible amplifiable products were observed in all PCR reactions except primer K2. These results indicated that optimized protocol is suitable for further work on molecular identification of kikuyu.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Betaine plays a vital role in forming amino acids to compose proteins, converted into structural tissue in poultry. This study aimed to predict the growth pattern of quails fed diet supplemented with betaine using a logistic regression model. In total, 84 10-day-old quails were divided into two treatments (T0: control, T1: betaine supplementation 0.12%). The diets were given in 2 phases (starter: 22% crude protein; layer: 20% crude protein), where weekly bodyweight data was recorded in each phase. The t-test was conducted to see the effect between treatments, while logistic regression was used to predict the pattern of bodyweight growth. The result showed no effect of betaine in bodyweight parameters (p>0.05) between T0 and T1 both for the starter and layer phases which might be associated with the nutrient sufficiency in the diet, particularly dietary protein. The logistic model’s bodyweight prediction has high accuracy with the fitness value for T0=99% and T1=98%. It can be concluded that betaine supplementation in high nutritional diets could not modify the growth pattern of quails.

Abstract
This study aimed to predict the egg production of quails receiving methionine supplementation. Two hundred and four quails were divided into two treatment diets, and six replicates with 17 quails each. The treatment diets were control (P0) and 0.12% methionine supplementation (P1). Egg production data were collected for eleven weeks, and a T-test was performed. Next, the data was plotted to get the actual egg production curve. We used a logistic regression model to predict the egg production pattern and calculated the model’s fitness with the coefficient of determination (R2). The results showed that methionine supplementation increased egg production by 9.43% (p<0.01). Based on the actual production curve, the increase in initial production to peak production of P1 was slower than P0, but P1 had a higher egg production than P0. The logistic model predicts that peak production of P1 was higher than P0 (62.74% vs. 56.79%), although the production rate of P1 was lower than P0 (0.21 vs. 0.36). In addition, the accuracy of both P0 and P1 models was 0.88 and 0.92, respectively. Thus, the logistic model can predict quail egg production in the tropics due to diet modification with high accuracy.

Abstract
Betaine is a methyl group donor and organic osmolyte, optimizing quail’s performance, particularly in a tropical environment. This study determined the fitness of the logistic model to predict the quail egg production with dietary betaine supplementation. Two hundred and four quails were divided into two dietary treatments, and six replicates with 17 quails each. The treatment diets were control (CTR) and 0.12% betaine supplementation (BET). Egg production data were collected for eleven weeks, and a T-test was performed. Next, the data is plotted to get the actual egg production curve. The fit of the logistic model is calculated according to the coefficient of determination (R2). Quail that received betaine supplementation produced more eggs than control (P<0.05). The actual egg production curve shows the effect of betaine supplementation seen after the fourth week. The logistic model predicts CTR to reach peak production faster than BET but to have lower peak production than BET (56.63% vs. 63.56%). Prediction of egg production both CTR and BET showed high accuracy with a relatively high R2 (0.88; CTR and 0.87; BET). Thus, the logistic model accurately predicted quails egg production reared in a tropical environment with betaine supplementation.

Published: November 2021

AbstractThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of fatliquor level on the physical quality of Indonesian rabbit fur leather. A total of 15 sheets of Indonesian local rabbit leather (30 cm long and 26 cm wide) were randomly divided into 5 treatments with 3 replicates. The five treatments were level of fatliquor: 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. In this study, the physical quality of rabbit fur leather was measured in tension, elongation, tensile strength, and tear strength. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test. Level of fatliquor affects (P<0.05) softness, elongation, tensile strength, and tear strength of rabbit fur leather. The use of fatliquor up to 20% increased the rabbit leather softness and elongation, but there was a decrease at 25%. The use of 10% fatliquor produces the highest tensile strength. The highest tear strength resulted from the use of fatliquor levels of 5% and 15%. It is concluded that using 20% fatliquor on the fatliquoring process of rabbit fur leather tanning produces the best physical quality.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of supplementation M. elsdenii on rumen fermentation and lactic acid concentration in vivo by integrating data from various related studies using a meta-analysis. A database was developed by integrating data from 72 treatments that originated from 17 articles. The parameters integrated were lactic acid concentration, fermentation products, and rumen microbial population. The database compiled was statistically analyzed using a mixed model methodology. Different studies were considered as random effects, and the doses of M. elsdenii were treated as fixed effects. The significance of an effect was stated when its p-value was <0.05. Results showed that supplementation of M. elsdenii linearly reduced lactic acid concentration (P=0.048), proportion of acetate (P=0.045), acetate: propionate ratio (P=0.043) and methane production (P<0.01). In addition, M. elsdenii supplementation also had a significant quadratic effect to increase total VFA (P<0.01) and linearly with pH (P<0.01), proportion of propionate (P=0.037), and valerate proportion (P=0.037). However, supplementation of M. elsdenii did not significantly affect (P>0.05) isobutyrate, isovalerate proportion, and protozoa population in the rumen. It can be concluded that M. elsdenii supplementation is proven to reduce lactic acid concentration, maintain rumen pH, reduce methane production and increase some rumen fermentation products.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of nitrate supplementation as an in vitro feed additive for modulating the rumen fermentation pattern and mitigating the enteric methane emission by using a meta-analysis method. A database was built from the previously published articles regarding the effectiveness of nitrate as a feed additive in the in vitro rumen fermentation system. Different doses or forms of nitrate supplementations were identified in the database. A total of thirteen studies containing 47 data sets were obtained from ten published research papers. The obtained data were subjected to the mixed model methodology. The doses or the different forms of nitrate were treated as a fixed factor, while the different studies were considered as a random effect. Results showed that nitrate addition decreased significantly (P<0.05) the total gas production, methane production, the TVFAs, and the acetic acid, and increased significantly (P<0.05) ammonia concentration in a linear pattern. However, nitrate did not affect significantly the rumen pH and the population of methanogenic archaea. In conclusion, nitrate is an effective additive for modulating the rumen fermentation by altering the fermentation process resulting in a lower methane production.

Abstract
The study evaluated the hematological parameters and antibody titers against Newcastle Disease (ND) and Avian Influenza (AI) on native chickens under extensive and semi-intensive rearing in Central Java, Indonesia. The target of the study was native chickens in Banyumas and Kebumen areas. The chickens were reared extensive and semi-intensively. The survey method was carried out by drawing 324 chicken blood samples for hematological tests and measuring antibody titer to ND and AI. The data obtained were analyzed using a general linear model (GLM) with the Systat ver.13 program. The results showed that native chicken in extensive and semi-intensive systems had different physiological statuses (P<0.05). The number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin levels, hematocrit values, total plasma protein levels, and heterophil-lymphocyte ratios was higher on semi-intensive than extensive system. However, the number of leucocytes was relatively high the same (P>0.05). In extensive system rearing, the number of native chickens with effective antibody titers against ND and AI was higher than the semi-intensive. The study concluded that native chickens reared in semi-intensive systems had a healthier physiological status than chickens in extensive systems. However, the effective antibody titers against ND and AI in the extensive and semi-intensive systems were still very low.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
The broiler farming industry cannot be separated from the use of Antibiotic Growth Promoter (AGP) in feed ingredients, but the negative impact of the utilization of AGP has led to a ban which has been in effect since January 2018. This study aims to analyze various factors and their relationship in broiler farming, so that it can be seen how the broiler farming business system runs after the ban of AGP. The research was conducted using a survey method on broiler farmers in one of the partner companies. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively using Causal Loop Diagram modeling. The results showed that the use of AGP was not the only factor that influenced the success of broiler farming. Other factors that affect broiler farming include maintenance management, cage quality and farmer quality. In addition to the regulation and arrangement of the broiler marketing trade system, efforts or strategies to improve broiler farming business include setting production standards based on the quality of the SAPRONAK used, upgrading open house cages to semi closed houses and improving the quality of farmers, especially motivation and education.

Abstract
Two types of mating had been practiced in the crossbreed of Jawarandu does and Boer buck that produced Boerja goat, the natural service and artificial insemination. This study aimed to compare the weaning rate, birth weight, and weaning weight of offspring from both mating methods and analyze the different birth and weaning weights on different sex and birth type. A total of 271 kids were born from naturally serviced (NS) and artificially inseminated (AI) does (221 and 50, respectively). All kids were managed in the same condition. The number of kid died pre-weaning, birth weight, and weaning weight were recorded and analyzed. The result showed that the weaning rate of AI kids was significantly higher than NS kids. The birth and weaning weights of kids from both groups were not significantly different. Male and single kids had heavier birth and weaning weights than female and twin kids. Overall, the survival rate of AI kids until weaning is better than NS kids. The birth and weaning weight in NS and AI are not different but male and single kids are heavier than female and twin kids in both groups.
