ABSTRAKProfit yang dihasilkan dari usaha budidaya itik dipengaruhi oleh manajemen budidaya yang diterapkan oleh peternak. Melalui proses identifikasi masalah dengan observasi dan Focus Group Discussion (FGD), pendampingan proses intensifikasi budidaya dilakukan untuk membekali peternak itik lokal dalam melakukan program budidaya itik yang lebih baik. Tujuan pendampingan usaha budidaya yaitu untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan peternak itik terkait dengan operasional usaha budidaya secara intensif sehingga peternak dapat meningkatkan keuntungan dan keberlangsungan usaha. Metode yang dilakukan adalah melalui pendampingan usaha intensifikasi yang meliputi pelatihan manajemen pemeliharaan itik, sanitasi dan biosecurity, manajemen kandang, pembuatan ransum, manajemen kesehatan, serta proses pemasaran ketika itik pedaging dipanen. Proses pendampingan dilakukan dengan pemeliharaan 300 ekor itik lokal Boyolali selama 45 hari dalam dua siklus produksi. Output yang diperoleh dari proses intensifikasi usaha budidaya ini antara lain adanya perbaikan standar sanitasi dan litter kandang. Selain itu, hasil panen yang diperoleh dapat ditingkatkan sesuai dengan standar performa itik lokal Boyolali, yaitu diperoleh rerata bobot panen sebesar 1,21 kg dengan nilai konversi pakan (feed conversion ratio, FCR) sebesar 3,28 dengan tingkat kematian sebesar 3,8%. Keuntungan yang diperoleh dari usaha budidaya itik intensif rata-rata adalah sebesar Rp. 1.783.500 dalam setiap periode. Disimpulkan, pemeliharaan itik intensif memberikan dampak pertumbuhan itik lebih lebih tinggi dengan masa pemeliharaan lebih singkat (45 hari) dan tingkat kematian rendah sehingga diperoleh profit yang lebih baik. Kata kunci: sistem budidaya intensif; itik lokal; peternak itik. ABSTRACTThe profit generated from the duck farming business is largely determined by management system. Following the problem identification through observation and Focus Group Discussions (FGD), facilitating intensification process in farming system was conducted to improve farmers knowledge in duck farming operation. This program amined to improve farmer knowledge on the intensive farming system thus farmer would gain more profit and sustainabile business. The mentorship program for iintensification process includes facilitation of intensive management system such sanitation and biosecurity processes, cages management, health management, and feed formulation as well as supervision on how to market the birds following harvest period. The mentoring process was carried out by raising 300 local Boyolali ducks for 45 days in two production cycles. The outputs obtained from the intensification program include improvements to sanitation standards and cage litter. In addition, the production obtained increased in accordance with the performance standards of local Boyolali ducks, as seen from the weight performance of 1.21 kg with a feed conversion ratio (FCR) of 3.28 and a mortality rate of 3.8%. The cost benefit obtained from intensive duck farming is Rp. 1,783,500 in each period. It was concluded that intensive duck rearing had a higher impact on duck growth performance with a shorter maintenance period (45 days) and a lower mortality rate so that better profits were obtained. Keywords: duck farmers; intensive farming system; local duck

The objective of this study was to investigate whether melamine (MEL) is biotransformed into cyanuric acid (CYA) in male broiler chickens. The effects of the dietary addition of MEL and CYA alone and in combination on the growth performance and mortality of the chickens were also investigated. The chickens were divided into six experimental groups and were fed diets with an addition of 50 or 100 mg/kg MEL or 50 or 100 mg/kg CYA of diet, with the contaminants added separately or in combination. The control group was fed a diet without MEL or CYA. At the end of the experiment (day 40), samples of liver, kidney and breast and thigh muscles were collected from 12 birds per treatment group and were analysed for the presence of MEL and CYA. This study showed that MEL is biotransformed into CYA in broilers. Higher concentrations of MEL or CYA in the diet increased the presence of their residues in tissues, and the CYA residue concentration was several times higher in the respective tissues than the MEL residue concentration. The dietary addition of MEL and CYA did not affect the mortality rate, feed conversion ratio or body weight of the chickens.

This paper presents the basic production parameters of seven broiler farms with a capacity of 6,000 birds per round in the Banja Luka region, obtained by analysis of production records of 70 rounds, achieved in 2013-2014. Methods of descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance and correlation analysis were used. Average values of production parameters were as follows (M±SD): day-old chick weight 43.04±2.63 g; fattening duration 38.91±2.55 days; final chick weight 2.13±0.24 kg; feed conversion ratio 1.80±0.07; total mortality rate 4.07±1.95%, and European production efficiency factor 291.14±22.50. Significant differences were found for average total mortality rate among broiler farms and feed conversion ratio between production years (p0.05). Fattening duration was in positive correlation with feed conversion ratio (0.76, p0.01), final chick weight (0.90, p0.01), but in negative with EPEF (-0.28, p0.05). Comparable production performances could be related to uniform the technology and similar requirements of meat industry, although comprehensive research is suggested for reliable evaluation of broiler farm productivity in the Banja Luka region.

Livestock Products

This paper reviews the small but growing literature on the water footprint (WF) of livestock production and provides an analysis of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of this indicator. We identified 42 papers published in peer-reviewed international journals between 2000 and 2017, which covered the WF of dairy, meat and egg production using life-cycle assessment and WF network methodologies. The WF of livestock products decreases with the level of intensification of the farming system. In addition, the WF of meat is higher than that of either milk or eggs. The WF of beef is much larger than the WFs from sheep, goat, pork and chicken. The WF variation among different animal products is explained by the difference of the feed conversion ratio. Ruminants (cattle, sheep and goat) have a poor feed conversion ratio compared with monogastric animals (poultry and swine). Estimating the WF of livestock production and economic analysis of water use at different stages of production will help farmers and other stakeholders to identify the most demanding activities in term of water use, and implement strategies to improve water-use efficiency. Thus, feed production was identified as the largest contributor of the WF of livestock production. Options to reduce the WF of livestock production include the use of low-WF feeds, more efficient irrigation of crops used for livestock feed, and reduced consumption of animal-sourced protein in human diets through substitution with plant proteins. The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats analysis highlighted the importance of combining WF with other environmental-footprint and sustainability indicators to provide more reliable information for decision makers.

AbstractThis study compared growth, feed conversion ratio (FCR), mortality rate and results of slaughter analysis of slow-growing Bronze turkeys (SG), fast-growing Big 6 turkeys (FG), and their reciprocal crosses (SF and FS). Until 6 weeks of age the birds were kept indoors and afterwards they were allowed to use free ranges. Toms were reared until 21 and hens until 15 weeks of age. The FS turkeys were characterized by higher (P≤0.05) BW and dressing percentage and by lower FCR compared to the SF crosses of both sexes. The analysis of orthogonal contrasts demonstrated that values of most of the slaughter analysis parameters were due to the additive effect of genes. Only weight of skin with fat and of gizzard could result from heterosis. Study results demonstrate that FS crosses constitute better material for the alternative production of turkeys compared to the other analysed groups (SG, SF, FG).

The objective of the study is to compare the practical results with the predicted results by Crossbreeding Effects (CBE) software on pig crossbred based on daily gain, backfat thickness and feed conversion ratio. Another purpose of this study is to predict those three traits among some expected hybridization. This research was conducted on pig farm at Binh Thang Research and Development center from 2013 to 2017. In this study, for each pair of purebred Duroc and Pietrain, Duroc and Landrace, Pietrain and Landrace, twelve hybridizations were analyzed, nine unhybridizations were predicted by CBE software. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the predicted and actual data. With some unhybridization crossbred , the predictions showed high reliability (P<0.05). Based on the predicted data of CBE software , some traits of the crossbred animals would not be improved, therefore, it was not necessary to conduct these hybridizations

Foot Disease

Footpad dermatitis (FPD) is a major foot disease in modern poultry production, and it affects both poultry health and animal welfare. It refers to inflammation and necrotizing lesions on the plantar surface of the footpads and toes. We investigated the effects of providing a swimming pool and different floor types on growth performance and FPD score in indoor-reared White Roman geese. Forty-eight male and 48 female White Roman geese were randomly allocated to pens with or without a swimming pool and with either mud or perforated plastic floor and reared from 15 to 84 days of age. Growth performance measurements included feed intake (FI), weight gain (WG), and feed conversion ratio (FCR). FI, WG, and FCR were significantly decreased at various growth periods in geese provided with a pool. Lower WG and bodyweight for the perforated plastic floor group were found at 15–28 and 28 days of age, respectively. The geese reared on the perforated plastic floors without a pool had higher FPD scores at 70 and 84 days of age than those with other rearing conditions. A higher incidence of FPD score 1 was observed in geese raised without a pool. In conclusion, providing a pool can improve footpad health in indoor-reared White Roman geese but may not benefit growth performance.

Enzyme Supplementation

We evaluated the influence of enzymatic supplementation on the growth performance and cecal microbiota of broilers. A total of 2160 1-day-old male chicks were used in a 3 × 2 × 2 factorial arrangement (three corn hybrids, two drying temperatures −80 and 110 °C, with or without the inclusion of an enzymatic blend (amylase, xylanase, and protease) (20 birds/pen, n = 9). For all performance and digestibility parameters, we observed, in general, isolated effects of the corn hybrids and drying temperature. Birds that received the enzymatic blend in the diet showed better weight gain from 1 to 21 days (d) and better digestibility coefficients of nutrients at 42 d. Birds fed diets with corn dried at 80 °C showed a better feed conversion ratio from 1 to 42 d. At 21 d of age, enzymatic supplementation had positive effects on jejunum morphology. Enzyme supplementation increased the abundance of the phylum Tenericutes, class Bacilli and Mollicutes, reduced Clostridia, and increased the abundances of the families Lactobacillaceae, Anaeroplasmataceae, and O_RF39;F. In conclusion, the addition of amylase, xylanase, and protease led to a better nutrient digestibility, performance, and intestinal morphology. In addition, enzyme supplementation changed the diversity, composition, and predicted function of the cecal microbiota at d 21.
