Coffee husk waste can be used as animal feed, preventing environmental pollution, with 30.15% crude fiber and 6.77% protein. This study evaluates the impact of adding banana stem local microorganism activator (MOL) on coffee husk's physical quality and nutritional content for animal feed. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five banana stem MOL addition treatments. The treatments included: Ax (control, 0 ml), Bx (35 ml), Cx (40 ml), Dx (45 ml), and Ex (50 ml), each replicated three times. Parameters observed included physical quality (color, aroma, texture, and mold), crude fiber, crude protein, water content, and pH. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test for physical quality, and nutrient content data were analyzed using ANOVA, with further testing using the Tukey test at a 5% level for significant differences in treatment. The analysis showed that the Cx (40 ml) treatment had the best color with a value of 2.6, while the Ex (40 ml) treatment had a firm texture of 2.7. Both Dx (45 ml) and Ex (50 ml) treatments had a fresh sour aroma at a value of 2.73, and the Bx (35 ml) treatment showed no mold (2.53). The Cx (40 ml) treatment had the highest water content at 11.8%. All treatments had pH values around 4.2 to 4.5. The Ex (50 ml) treatment had the highest crude protein content at 1.51%. It can be concluded that adding banana stem MOL improves the physical quality and nutrient content of coffee skin silage when used at 50 ml.

This study aimed to provide the impact of acidifier supplementation on feed consumption, body weight gain (BWG), feed efficiency, and feed conversion ratio (FCR) in broiler chickens infected with Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). The use of acidifiers is proposed as a potential solution to improve gut health and nutrient absorption. This study employed a completely randomized design (CRD). Forty broiler chickens, ages 1 to 35, were utilized in this study, and the treatment started at 8 days of age. There were 5 treatments and 4 replications for each treatment, with 2 broiler chicks in each replication. The treatments consisted of negative control, without APEC infection (P0), positive control, with APEC infection (P1), infected with APEC with 0.1% of Antibiotic Growth Promoters in the diet (P2), and infected with APEC with additional feed acidifier 0.5% (P3). This study analyzed its effect on feed consumption, Body Weight Gain (BWG), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), and feed efficiency. Also, the business analysis was carried out by calculating the contribution margin (CM). Data was statistically analyzed using one way-analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan's multiple range test to determine any statistical differences (p<0.05). The research results show that adding an acidifier to the diet does not reduce the feed consumption value but can increase BWG, reduce the FCR value (p<0.05), improve feed efficiency, and increase the contribution margin in broiler chicken farming. It concludes that adding 0.5% acidifier to the feed can improve broiler chickens infected with APEC production performance.

2024-12-27T08:47:13+07:00

One method for laboratories to achieve accreditation is through proficiency testing, which relies on the availability of reference materials from specialized providers or manufacturers. This research investigates the stability of both imported and locally sourced soybean meal, which serves as control samples in animal feed laboratories. The parameters assessed in this research include water content, ash content, and crude protein levels. Statistical analyses were conducted according to the proficiency testing guidelines outlined in SNI ISO 13528:2016, focusing on homogeneity and stability assessments. The results indicate that both local and imported soybean meals are homogeneous across the tested parameters. However, the stability tests reveal differing results: local soybean meal shows instability in water content and crude protein, while its ash content remains stable. In contrast, the imported soybean meal exhibits stable water and ash content but unstable crude protein levels. In conclusion, soybean meal can be utilized as a control sample in feed laboratories for short-term applications due to its susceptibility to changes in material characteristics.

Key words: homogeneity, stability, soybean meal

This study was conducted to determine the effect of inclusion Palm Kernel Meal (PKM) at the level of 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% on the pellet quality, broiler performance including body weight (BW), average daily gain (ADG), feed intake (FI), feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index, proportion of carcass, gizzard, liver and abdominal fat. A closed house cage held 320 broiler chickens of ROSS 308 strain. This study used a completely randomized design of 4 treatments with different PKM levels, namely P0 0%, P1 5%, P2 10%, and P3 15%. Each treatment consisted of 8 replicates, and each replicate consisted of 10 chickens. The results showed that the inclusion of PKM which increased, was inversely proportional to the quality of pellets, which decreased. Observations in the in vivo test showed that 15% PKM inclusion could increase feed consumption and body weight but decrease feed efficiency. It can be concluded, PKM inclusion at the level of 15% can increase palatability and body weight, and did not affect the percentage of carcass and gizzard, but can reduce the percentage of abdominal fat and increase the proportion of liver.

This research investigated the potential of Javanese turmeric (Curcuma zanthorrhiza) and aromatic ginger (Kaempferia galanga) as natural feed additives in dairy cow diets, focusing on their effects on rumen fermentation characteristics and and protozoa population through an in vitro study. The study employed a randomized block design consisting of four treatments and three replicates, utilizing rumen fluid obtained from three fistulated Friesian Holstein bull dairy cows. The treatments were defined as follows: P0 = control diet; P1 = P0 + 10% Javanese turmeric; P2 = P0 + 10% aromatic ginger; P3 = P0 + 5% Javanese turmeric + 5% aromatic ginger. The parameters assessed included rumen pH, ammonia (NH₃) concentration, total volatile fatty acids (VFA) concentration, and protozoa population. Data analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan’s multiple range test to identify significant differences (p<0.05). The results showed that none of the treatments significantly affected on the measured parameters (rumen pH, ammonia, VFA, and protozoa populations). The best results were observed in treatment P2 (10% aromatic ginger), which exhibited average values within the normal range across all parameters. The study concluded that dietary inclusion of Javanese turmeric and aromatic ginger, either alone or combined, did not disrupt rumen fermentation balance.

Organic acids, including those found in sour mangosteen (Garcinia xanthochymus) fruit extract, have the potential as alternatives to antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sour mangosteen fruit extract (SME) supplementation at different acidity levels (pH 4, pH 3, and pH 2) as an acidifier on the blood profile and leukocyte differentiation of adult female Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica). A completely randomized design (CRD) was applied with four treatments: a control without SME supplementation (P0) and groups receiving SMFE-supplemented drinking water adjusted to pH 4 (P1), pH 3 (P2), and pH 2 (P3). Each treatment was replicated three times with 11 heads per replicate. The extract was administered twice weekly from 6 to 12 weeks of age. All quails were fed a commercial layer diet containing 20% crude protein, 4% crude fat, 6% crude fiber, 4% calcium, and 0.6% total phosphor. The observed parameters included blood profile indices (erythrocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, leukocytes) and leukocyte differentiation (lymphocytes, monocytes, heteropils, and neutrophils). The results indicated that SME supplementation at pH 4, pH 3 and pH 2 in drinking water did not significantly affect the blood profile or leukocyte differentiation. These finding suggest that Garcinia xanthochymus fruit extract at these acidity levels can be effectively utilized as an acidifier in drinking water.
