This is necessary to determine the type of cow with the best weight gain. Data collection methods at RSPD are by interview/questionnaire, making feed without forage, growth promoter and fermenter. The feed from RSPD was applied to 5 types of beef cattle, namely local cattle, Ongole crossbreeds, Madura cattle, Limousin crossbreeds and Simmental crossbreeds. This activity is carried out from February – until June 2021. The result of this RSPD is to increase the human resources of beef cattle breeders in processing feed without forage, growth promoters and fermenters, types of beef cattle with good weight gain. Problems were found in the COVID-19 pandemic era for beef cattle farmers, namely human resources in processing feed without forage in order to reduce production costs and anticipate prolonged droughts. The government's steps can take decisions to overcome these problems, such as providing business capital assistance, deferring loan payments, to assisting beef cattle farmers. The conclusion of this activity is the processing of feed without forage, growth promoters and fermentors in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic in order to reduce production costs. and online marketing of livestock with non-cash payments. Limousin and Simental crossbreeds had good weight gain compared to local cattle, Ongole crossbreeds and Madura cattle. Keywords: complete feed, straw tape, growth promoter, Beef cattle

A study was conducted to determine the efficacy of three most commonly used growth promoters from different pharmaceutical companies on growth performance of hybrid walking catfish (Clarias batrachus × Clarias gariepinus). The experiment was done in the wet laboratory of the Department of Aquaculture, BAU, Mymensingh, with a total of 10 aquaria and 160 fish having mean initial weight of 6.3 ± 0.48 g. The three growth promoters, “Charger gel” from Fishtech (BD) Ltd., “Growth gel” from Advance Agrotech (BD) Ltd. and “Hepaprotect-aqua” from Renata Animal health Ltd., were used in separate nine (9) aquaria at recommended, lower dose and higher dose respectively. One aquarium was used as control (diet without any growth promoter). The fish were fed with paragon nursery floating feed at 20% of body weight in each aquarium for 28 days. Doses of Charger gel were given as 80, 60 and 100 mg/20 g feed/day, that of Growth gel, 0.14, 0.12 and 0.16 ml/20 g feed/day and of Hepaprotect-aqua, 30, 15 and 50 mg/20 g feed/day. Re-circulatory system was used throughout the experimental period. By applying recommended, lower and higher dose of “Charger gel”, mean final weights were found as 23.0, 21.9 and 35.9 g; average daily weight gain as 0.60, 0.56 and 1.06 g and specific growth rate (SGR) as 2.01, 1.93 and 2.70% respectively. For “Growth gel”, mean final weights were found as 22.8, 17.3 and 31.1 g; average daily weight gain as 0.59, 0.39 and 0.88 g and SGR as 1.99, 1.57 and 2.48 % respectively. For “Hepaprotect-aqua”, mean final weights were found as 24.2, 17.5 and 28.2 g; average daily weight gain as 0.64, 0.40 and 0.78 g and SGR as 2.09, 1.58 and 2.32% respectively. In all the cases survival rates were 100%. All the three growth promoters showed better results at their higher doses in comparison to their results in lower and recommended doses. However, in average Charger gel showed the best result than the other two growth promoters. This information on the efficacy study of growth promoters needs to be disseminated to the farmers for improved fish production.Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. March 2017, 3(1): 103-108

Contudo, há irregularidade das precipitações e os produtores utilizam a irrigação como alternativa para o problema. Porém, há uma necessidade de determinação dos custos de produção e da viabilidade financeira da atividade. O trabalho objetivou avaliar a viabilidade financeira da irrigação em sorgo forrageiro para a bovinocultura de corte para diferentes expectativas de ganho de peso médio diário dos animais. Conduziu-se dois experimentos em 2015/2016 e 2016/2017 em Santa Maria/RS, e avaliou-se as produtividades de seis lâminas de irrigação por aspersão convencional (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 e 125 % da ETo), em quatro repetições, delineamento blocos ao acaso. Com as produtividades, gerou-se funções de produção e determinou-se a carga animal possível de ser alimentada para cada tratamento. Simulou-se três cenários de ganho de peso diário por animal (0,5, 1 e 1,5 kg-1animal-1 dia-1), e os custos de produção para cada condição hídrica estabelecida, além do retorno financeiro para cada cenário testado. Verificou-se viabilidade financeira para a maioria das situações simuladas avaliadas e que os custos dependem do regime das precipitações.   Palavras chave: Sorghum bicolor L.

FINANCIAL FEASIBILITY OF IRRIGATION IN FORAGE SORGHUM IN ASPERSION SYSTEM FOR MEAT CATTLE BREEDING   2 ABSTRACT   Beef cattle kept in pasture of forage sorghum is characterized as one of the main means of bovine production in Rio Grande do Sul. However, rains are irregulat and producers  use  irrigation as  alternative to the problem. However, there is a need to determine production costs and  financial viability of the activity. The objective of this work was to evaluate the financial feasibility of irrigation in forage sorghum for beef cattle for different expectations of average daily weight gain of the animals. Two experiments were conducted in 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 in Santa Maria / RS, and the yields of six conventional irrigation depths (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125% of the ETo) were evaluated, in four replications, and randomized block design. With the productivities, production functions were generated and the possible animal load to be fed for each treatment was determined. Three scenarios were simulated of daily weight gain per animal (0.5, 1 and 1.5 kg-1animal-1day-1), and the production costs for each established water condition, in addition to the financial return for each scenario tested. Financial feasibility has been verified for most of the simulated situations evaluated and costs depend on the precipitation regime.   Keywords: Sorghum bicolor L. (Moench), forage irrigation, financial viability, production costs.

The current study was undertaken to assess the present status of cattle mixed feeds, feed ingredients and use of growth promoters in livestock production of Bangladesh. The survey was carried out through a structured questionnaire among 80 farmers during April to June, 2017. The study revealed that agriculture is the primary occupation for 63% of respondents, whereas 27.5% of respondents are dependent over livestock. The dairy farmers are involved in both dairy and beef cattle fattening. Approximately 64% of the livestock farmers practiced fattening round the year and rest of the respondents followed fattening for period of 3 months; before Eid-ul-Adha. About 86% farmers reared uncastrated males instead of steer for fattening. It was observed that 59% of the farmers applying steroid as growth promoters in beef cattle fattening. The study indicated that middleman, feed/ medicine dealers were involved in promoting of steroids (dexavet, pednivet, oradexon, decason, paractin, gludex etc) usages in livestock. Owing to the lack of knowledge on steroids use in livestock over public health, the farmers are influenced by the vendors for quick profit. They sell their animals prior to withdrawal periods of drugs. Training and knowledge about the health hazards of steroids had inverse significant relationship with use of steroid as growth promoter (p<0.01). Improvement of education, training and financial status of the farmers significantly affected the use of steroids in beef fattening. Present problems could be addressed by intervention measures by the policy makers of the livestock sector. SAARC J. Agri., 17(1): 105-118 (2019)

Background: Feed is an important input for poultry and swine production, representing 50–70% of the total production costs. Feed processing provides an opportunity to improve poultry and swine performance. Herbal gut function modulators are used in poultry and swine feeds to improve nutrient utilization and efficiencies of biomass production. Nbiotic™ Premix is a phytoformulation of AYURVET LIMITED, INDIA used in poultry and swine as a natural growth promoter (NGP) to effectively replace antibiotic growth promoters (AGP). Pelletization used to prevent wastage of feed, reduce bulk and improve digestibility and palatability. In present work we have assessed the stability of the Nbiotic™ Premix herbal formulation under different pelletization thermal stress conditions. Methods: Formulation was kept under controlled temperature (90oC) and moisture (2.0 % w/w) for different time intervals (0, 5, 10 minutes). Chromatographic techniques (HPLC and HPTLC) and physicochemical properties were used to monitor the formulations stability. Nbiotic™ Premix was stable at all the experimental investigation of pelletization thermal stress. Results: No significant change in the 6-gingerol content (250.0 ppm (± 2.0 % at RT 10.05 minutes) and difference between peak areas and the retention factor (RF) values for the control samples and various thermal stress conditioned samples were observed. A comprehensive study of HPLC and HPTLC measurements have been applied for assessing the stability of Nbiotic™ Premix. Developed methods (HPLC & HPTLC) were found to be rapid, sensitive and reliable in determining its stability. As evident, Nbiotic™ Premix can undergo pelletization process without any degradation. In conclusion, present study will help towards developing appropriate stability monitoring parameters for herbal products which is a major challenge in the nutraceutical industry in current scenario.

O principal objetivo deste trabalho foi o de estudar a influência da utilização do halquinol (uma mistura de 5,7-dicloro-8-quinolinol, 5-cloro-8 quinolinol e 7-cloro-8-quinolinol) como promotor de crescimento, bem como sua possível ação no controle da coccidiose, em frangos de corte. Foram analisados parâmetros como ganho de peso, conversão alimentar, viabilidade e índice de eficiência produtiva. Foram constituídos 6 tratamentos, num total de 2880 aves criadas em piso, com diferentes níveis da droga na ração. Observou-se que a utilização do halquinol como promotor de crescimento não alterou significativamente (P>0.05) o ganho de peso, a conversão alimentar e a viabilidade das aves. A associação do halquinol a outros promotores de crescimento também não influenciou positivamente (P>0.05) os parâmetros zootécnicos avaliados. No segundo estudo, num experimento em gaiolas procurou-se avaliar a ação do halquinol no controle da coccidiose, comparando-se a ação de 30 g/ton do produto associado ou não ao coccidiostático maduramicina frente à inoculação de diferentes Eimerias. Foram utilizadas 40 aves criadas em gaiolas que receberam um inoculo misto de E.tenella, E. acervulina e E. máxima, sendo então realizado escore de lesões. Como resultado observou-se que a utilização do halquinol potencializa a ação da maduramicina no controle da E. acervulina, não apresentando entretanto qualquer efeito no controle da E. máxima e E.tenella. Utilization of halquinol as a growth promoter and coadjuvanto on coccidiosis control in broilers Abstract The main purpose of this stud was to invetigate the clorade-8-hidroxiquinolim (halquinol) drug influence as a promoter of growth, as well as it´s possible action in the coccidiosis control in chicken for human consumption. Some parameters have been analised such as weight gain, food conversion ,viability and produtive efficiency index. Six treatments were undertaken, on a total of 2880 birds raised on flat surface with different levels of drug in then feed .It was noted that the utilization of halquinol as a promoter of growth didn´t alter significantly (P>0.05) the weight gain, the feed conversion and the viability of the birds. The addition of halquinol to other growth promoters also didn´t influence positively (P>0.05) the evalueted zootechnical parameters. In the second study, during a bird cage experiment there was no attempt to evaluate the halquinol action in the control of coccidiosis by comparing the of 30 g/ton of clorade-8-hidroxiquinolin (halquinol) associade or not with maduramicine coccidiostatic during the Eimerias innoculation. There were utilize 40 cages raised birds wich received a mixed E. tennela, E. acervulina e E. maxima inoculum, and was performed a lesion count. As a result it was observed that the utilization of halquinol potencializes the maduramicine action in the control of E. acervulina; however no showing any effect in the control of E.maxima and E. tenella.

This research paper aimed to optimize the process parameters and to select the most suitable drying method in order to obtain probiotic powder at reduced cost. The influence of the addition of growth promoters (glucose, sucrose, cheese whey, peptone, yeast extract or ammonium sulfate), incubation parameters (time and temperature) and drying method (freeze-drying or oven-drying) on the viability of the probiotic cultures Lactobacillus casei or Lactobacillus acidophilus was evaluated. The effect of the growth promoters was evaluated using a fractional factorial experimental design 26-4 and the concentration of the growth promoters and the incubation temperature were optimized through Box-Behnken experimental matrix (33). Cheese whey (16% w/v) plus ammonium sulfate (2.5% w/v) and cheese whey (12% w/v) plus yeast extract (7% w/v) promoted a higher multiplication of L. casei and L. acidophilus, respectively. The best temperature for L. casei was 35 ºC and for L. acidophilus 39 ºC, without influence of the incubation time (24 or 48 h). The oven-drying resulted in the highest populations of the probiotic cultures (above 9 log cfu/mL). This study proved that cheese whey can be a suitable growth promoter for both probiotic cultures and oven-drying could be the drying method, which can decrease the production costs. The influence of the temperature and growth promoters is strain specific, demonstrating that the growth conditions should be evaluated for each probiotic strain.

Background: Animal feed is one of the main determinants of livestock production costs. Tofu dregs and dry-cooked rice waste is favoured by farmers as an additional feed for cattle because it is readily available and inexpensive. Tofu dregs and dry-cooked rice waste is considered to be able to provide adequate nutrition for cattle and is believed to be able to be a factor in increasing cattle daily body weight. The efficiency of feed use can be determined from feed conversion, namely the amount of feed consumed to achieve an increase of one kilogram of body weight. Purpose: To find out the average increase in daily body weight of beef cattle given tofu dregs and dry-cooked rice waste and how much feed conversion is produced at CV. Tunas Muda Tuban. Method: Using ten beef cattle to be weighed in the first week and the fourth week of observation. Result: Feeding tofu and karak dregs, had an average daily weight gain of 1.34 Kg/day. Conclusion: Provision of tofu and dry-cooked rice waste has a significant influence on the increase in body weight of beef cattle at CV.Tunas Muda, seen from the average daily body weight of 1.34 kg/day.

Human resource management (HRM) is a recognition of the importance of human labor as vital resources that contribute to the goals of the organization, and utilization of multiple functions and activities to ensure that they are used effectively and fairly for the benefit of individuals, organizations, and society. Now human resource management has a unique and timely opportunity to improve productivity. Eventhough, productivity improvement does not means only increase the output. In addition, the evaluation of program responsibles and meets the special needs of employees with efficient cost. It is a very effective manner that very important, as organizations are tempted to cut costs and improve quality in their company. Without evaluation, it is very difficult to demonstrate that the development is the reason for the improvement. Human Resources Development can maintain and support productivity, as well as company isolate of lack of expertise of the human resources for the current job and future. The results are used in evaluating development programs include participant satisfaction with the training and development program development, learning knowledge or skills, the use of knowledge and skills on the job, and the results such as sale, productivity, or the prevention of accidents. Evaluation can also compare costs against benefits that receive development (return on investment).

Sorghum–sudangrass (Sorghum bicolor × S. sudanense (Piper) Stapf.) and pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) provide adequate nutritive value for growing beef cattle; however, unlike pearl millet, sorghum–sudangrass produces hydrocyanic acid (which is toxic to livestock) when frosted. Forage yield, nutritive value, and weight gain of growing cattle grazing sorghum–sudangrass and pearl millet were compared during the frost-prone autumns of 2013 and 2014, at New Mexico State University’s Rex E. Kirksey Agricultural Science Center in Tucumcari, NM USA, in randomized complete block designs each year with two replicates. No differences existed between pearl millet and sorghum–sudangrass forage yield, although there was a year–forage interaction for fiber-based nutritive value components because of maturity differences across years between the forages when freeze-killed. Pearl millet allowed for extending grazing of available forage for an additional 14 and 24 d in 2013 and 2014, respectively, compared to sorghum–sudangrass during the frost-prone autumn periods. During that period, when sorghum forages produce potentially toxic levels of hydrocyanic acid, animals grazing pearl millet accumulated an additional average of 94.9 kg live-weight gain ha−1 (p < 0.001). These factors afford producers an opportunity to increase returns on the similar investments of establishing and managing warm-season annual forage crops each year, and allow more time to stockpile cool-season perennial and annual forages for winter and early spring grazing, or to reduce hay feeding.
