Forage Authors: Bernadete Barek Koten, Redempta Wea, Rosalin Kana Tiry, Seni Otto, Apriana Wasti Belandina Selan, Welius Yikwa, Allan Prima Titong Pages: 72 - 76 Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adding various levels of bokashi from gliricidia leaves and goat faeces on the growth, production and chemical composition of arbila's forage, has been carried out for 5 months, was designed with completely randomized, 4 treatments with 5 replica tions, consisting of P0: without bokashi, P5: 5 tons bokashi/ha, P10: 10 tons bokashi/ha, and P15: 15 tons bokashi/ha. Variables measured were number of root nodules, percentage of effective nodules, nitrogen uptake, stem diameter, increase in number of leaves, stem and leaf ratio, forage production (fresh, dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM) and crude protein (CP), and chemical composition. Data were analyzed by variance analysis and followed by Duncan's test. Result of the research, the treatment had a very significant effect (P<0.01) on the increase number of leaves, OM dan CP forage productions. Futhermore, had asignificant effect (P<0.05) on the number of root nodules, nitrogen uptake, stem diameter, fresh and DM forage productions, content of DM, OM, CP, crude fiber (CF), nitrogen free extract (NFE), and ash, but did not affect on percentage of effective nodules, stem and leaf ratio, and extract ether (EE) content of forage. Duncan's test showed that the P15 produced the highest number of root nodules, N uptake, leaf growth, fresh, DM, OM and CP production, and the content of OM, CP, NFE in arbila's forage. It was concluded that this bokashi can improve the growth, production and chemical composition of arbila's forage and the best level is 15 tons bokashi/ha.

- Macronutrient Digestibilities and Enzyme Activities in Rumen Fluid
Supplemented by Protein-Energy Synchronized Index-Based Rations Authors: Afduha Nurus Syamsi, Harwanto Harwanto, Hermawan Setyo Widodo, Yusuf Subagyo Pages: 77 - 83 Abstract: The protein-energy synchronized (PES) index-based rations can optimize microbial protein synthesis (MPS) and affect enzyme activity and macronutrient digestibility of ration in rumen fluid. This study aimed to examine the in vitro effect of a ration based on PES index on macronutrient digestibility and enzyme activity in rumen fluid. The research was conducted experimentally, consisting of 4 treatment rations with different PES indexes (R1: 0.55; R2: 0.6; R3: 0.65; R4: 0.7). Each treatment was repeated 5 times, so there were 24 experimental units. The material used was the rumen fluid of the Jawa Randu Goat, which was taken at the Sokaraja Slaughterhouse shortly after the goat was slaughtered. Each ration consisted of napier grass, river tamarind, coconut meal, soybean dregs, rice bran, cassava waste, and mineral mix. The results showed that the PES index significantly affected (P<0,01) the digestibility of protein (A), fiber (B), and fat (C), as well as the activity of protease (D) and cellulase (E) enzymes. Theorthogonal polynomial test showed that the PES index has a quadratic effect on all test parameters with the following equation: A (Y= -1229.5X2 + 1540.6X -457.57; R2= 0.75), B (Y = -800.95X2+ 955.86X -264.51; R² = 0.75), C (Y = 868.92X2-1038.2X + 325.1; R2= 0.81), D (Y = -41.4X2+ 51.697X -14.982; R² = 0.77), and E (Y = -4.8538X2+ 5.927X -1.6241; R² = 0.84). The protein-energy synchronized index-based rations increased the in vitro of macronutrient digestibility (protein, fiber, and fat) and enzyme activity on rumen fluid at a medium index level (0.6-0.63).

- Evaluation of Compacted Forage Feed on Kupang Cattle Feeding Behavior
Authors: Fensa Eka Widjaya, Despal Despal, Yuli Retnani, Rudy Priyanto, Luki Abdullah Pages: 84 - 93 Abstract: Forage compact feed has the ability to cut the adaptation period of grazing cattle when transported, because they are used to consume forage. The effect of the form and type of forage formulation on the feeding behavior of cattle needs to be studied further to determine the preferences of cattle for this compact feed. This study used 36 cattle with 3 replications in each treatment. The 2 factor groups withfactorial design consisting formulation and form of feed was applied in this study. The forms of feed used in this study were wafers, pellets, dried pellets, and cubes. The formulations used in this study were formulation 1 (10% molasses, 30% indigofera leaves, 50% straw, 10% elephant grass); formulation 2 (10% molasses, 30% indigofera leaves, 60% straw); formulation 3 (10% molasses, 20% indigofera leaves, 65% straw, 5% hemp). The parameters observed in this study were eating behavior of cattle which consisted of the frequency and duration of eating, drinking, rumination, and resting. The results showed that there wasan interaction on eating frequency and cattle duration. Formulation 3 on wafer treatment had the highest feeding frequency (P<0.05). Formulation 1 on wafer treatment had the highest duration of rumination (P<0.05). In the conclusion, Formulation 1 and 3 with wafer shape showed the best behavior for eating.

Containing Atung (Parinarium glaberrimumHassk.) Seed Powder Authors: Sylvia C. H. Hehanussa, Zuprizal Zuprizal, Chusnul Hanim, Nanung Danar Dono Pages: 104 - 111 Abstract: This study investigated the effect of feeding atung (Parinarium glaberrimum Hassk.) seed meal on growth performance and haematology profile in broiler chickens. A total of 140 one-day-old male New Lohmann broiler chicks were randomly assigned to five treatment groups with four replicates and seven birds in each replicate pen. The dietary treatments consisted of feeding the same corn-soybean meal as the basal diet with atung seed powder inclusions at levels of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0%, respectively. The data were statistically analyzed using One-way with five treatments and four replications and continued with Duncan's New Multiple Range Test for data with a significant difference. Results showed that feed intake increased (p<0.05) in broiler chickens fed diets with 0.5 and 1% atung seed powder. At the same time, the inclusion of atung seed powder had no effect on final body weight, weight gain, and FCR. Inclusion of 1 and 2% atung seed powder significantly increased leucocyte counts, as well as the PCV value trend increased with the inclusion of atung seed powder. It can be concluded that atung seed powder additives can be supplemented in broiler chickens feed at doses 1% by improving feed intake and some haematological profiles.

- The Effect of Thawing Duration on the Post Thawing Quality of Bali
Cattle’s Frozen Semen and Conseption Rate in Smallholder Farms of East Lombok Regency Authors: Ikhwan Firhamsah, Sigit Bintara, Diah Tri Widayati Pages: 112 - 120 Abstract: This research aimed to identify the effect of the length of thawing time on the quality of Bali cattle postthaw semen and to investigate the resulting pregnancy rate. This research was conducted at Wanasaba Village, specifically Tanaq Mira Village, Wanasaba District, East Lombok Regency. Five samples of Bali cattle semen were collected for insemination from each of three different farmer groups. The semen sample from the remaining frozen semen inseminated by the inseminator was used in this research. Tanaq Mira Village's inseminator performed thawing during the trip from the artificial insemination (AI) station to the farmer group's location. This research observed the microscopic quality of the postthaw frozen semen covering motility, viability, and abnormality. Moreover, the pregnancy rate on AI acceptors using the non return rate (NRR) parameter or the number of female parents who returned to estrus after being inseminated were observed. The observation was conducted on three farmer groups with different distances and lengths of thawing time. Each farmer group was observed five times. The collected data were then analysed by using one-way analysis of variance(ANOVA). The research indicated that the distance of the farmer group’s location significantly affected (P<0,01) the sperm motility and viability. However, it did not significantly affect (P>0,05) the sperm abnormalities. The Sapeng farmer group had the highest NRR, as much as 80%. According to the NRR score, it can be concluded that the thawing process using the thermos within less than 10 minutes resulted in the best yield.

- The Effect of Betel Nut Extract (Areca catethu L) on Spermatozoa Quality
(Macroscopic and Microscopic) in Male Goats Authors: Dwi Wijayanti, Yuni Oktaviani, Gianty Hartani Lugiana, Sadjatun Nisa Pages: 121 - 125 Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of betel nut extract on the macroscopically and microscopically quality of spermatozoa. Materials and methods were used for 16 male Ettawa goats at the age of 2 years. The preparation of betel nut extract and macroscopic observations of spermatozoa via the use of odors, colors, and volumes, as well as microscopic observations of spermatozoa through the use of mass motion, mass motility, and individual motility. The betel nut extract was administered orally for 15 days. The treatments in this study were T0 (without the provision of betel nut extract), T1 (provision of betel nut extract (90 mg/goat/day)), T2 (provision of betel nut extract (180 mg/goat/day)), T3 (provision of betel nut extract (270 mg/goat/day)). The results showed that the addition of betel nut extract was significantly different than without extracts (P<0.05). The goats without betel nut extract had the lowest quality of spermatozoa, whereas the goats treated with a betel nut extract (270 mg/goat/day) had the highest quality of spermatozoa of all the treatments. There was an increase in spermatozoa in the 10th data collection, including smell, colour, volume, mass motility, and individual motility. Furthermore, male goats were given betel nut extract at a dose of 270 mg/goat/day, which improved spermatozoa quality both macroscopically and microscopically. Subsequently, we assumed that betel nut extract could improve reproductive quality in male goats. PubDate: 2022-05-30 DOI: 10.21059/buletinpeternak.v46i2.47489 Issue No: Vol. 46, No. 2 (2022)

Increasing the Growth of Pennisetum purpureum cv Mott Authors: Rahmi Dianita, Wiranto Wiranto, Muhammad Koyum, Ubaidillah Ubaidillah, Dodi Devitriano Pages: 126 - 131 Abstract: The right proportion of carbon in high N organic matter source in composting process will result good decomposition process. In this study, rabbit manure was composted with different portion of sawdust, and then the chemical properties were evaluated. The compost then applied to determine the growth response of dwarf elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott) in terms of plant height, number of leaves, root and shoot dry matter, shoot and shoot ratio, and N content in shoot. The results showed that compost consisted of rabbit manure + sawdust with the ratio of 3:1 and 1:1 had good chemical properties (pH around 7.56 - 7.94, C/N ratio 17 – 19, C- organic 19 – 24%, Nitrogen 0.84 – 1.31%, Phosphor 0.43 – 0.82%, and Potassium 0.27– 0.37%) as well as sole rabbit manure compost. Applying compost to Mott grass resulted a good growth response which reflected in plant height (78.29 - 83.46 cm/plant), leaves number (53.50 - 57.92 blades), shoot dry matter (39.69 – 54.56 g DM/plant), root dry matter (16.50 – 18.16 g DM/plant), shoot : root ratios (2.52 - 3.20), and shoot N content (37.14 - 48.55 g DM/plant). The study concluded that compost rabbit manure + sawdust with ratio of 3:1 resulted the same growth response with sole rabbit manure compost.

- Social Cultural Characteristics of Farmers and Types of Plant Cultivated
on Local Native Forage Sources in Kupang Regency Authors: Edi Djoko Sulistijo, Upik Syamsiar Rosnah Pages: 132 - 139 Abstract: The local native forage sources in Kupang Regency have their own specifications due to different management. This research is aimed at describing socio- cultural characteristics of farmers and the types of plant cultivated on local native forage sources planted in the farms in Kupang Regency. It was conducted in Oeletsala Village, Taebenu Sub-District, Kupang Regency from August 2015 to April 2017. The research method was survey, direct observation and measurement in the field as well as secondary data collection. The data were analyzed descriptively in the form of averages, tables and graphs. The results showed that amarasi farm were more widely distributed than dry mamar and selobua. Most of the farmers were at their productive age, have elementary school education, and 1-4 family members. The background of farming and the reasons for choosing the type of farms were varied. Likewise, the types of plants were also varied. Utilization of the types of plants have experienced a shift from conservation goals to multi-function. In amarasi, dry mamar and selobua farm were found 62, 77 and 53 types of plants. Forage which is commonly used at the farmer level were 13 species dominated by Leucaena leucocephala. While, 23 other commodities were not forage and they were harvested in certain seasons and for household needs. In conclusion, the farmers were at their productive age, with low education, and small family size. The background of establishing the farms and the reasons for choosing the type of farms varied. The types of plants have been shifted from conservation goals to being multi-purposes. The types of plants that were widely developed other than forage are dominated by food crops and horticulture. The three types farms can have a positive impact on feed and food security, source of farmer’s income and land conservation PubDate: 2022-05-30 DOI: 10.21059/buletinpeternak.v46i2.71548 Issue No: Vol. 46, No. 2 (2022)
