A 16-week trial evaluated the effects of ethanolic extract of Aspiliaafricana leaf (EeAaL) on the growth performance, carcass and egg characteristics of growing and laying quails. One hundred and eighty (180), one-week old Japanese quail chicks were assigned to six experimental diets (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10% EeAaL or 0.02% oxytetracycline). Each treatment had 30 birdswhich were further subdivided into three replicates of 10 birds. Each replicate was housed in a pen under the deep litter system; feed and water were provided ad libitum.Growth performance and egg characteristics(egg quantity and quality) indices were subjected to the one-way ANOVA in a completely randomized design (CRD). No significant (P>0.05) effect of EeAaL was observed between treatments on the final body weight and daily weight gains of quails. Feed conversion ratio (4.95 – 5.28) was significantly (P<0.05) improved in quails fed 2.5 – 7.5% EeAaL diets. Zero mortality was observed in quails fed 5 – 10% EeAaL diets compared to other treatments. EeAaL supplementation reduced (P<0.05) the amount of fat deposition in quail carcass, thus improving the carcass quality. The efficacy ofEeAaL was more pronounced in laying than growing quails where significant (P<0.05) differences were observed on some external and internal egg characteristics, whereas egg composition did not differ (P>0.05) between treatments. Egg number, hen day production, albumen weight,yolk weight, shell thickness and yolk colour were significantly improved following dietary EeAaL  upplementation, indicative of strong growth promoting and stimulatory effects.Therefore, for improved carcass and egg performances up to 7.5% EeAaL shoud be supplemented intoquail diets.Keywords: Leaf extract, growth rate, egg characteristics, bush marigold, quails

The problem that often arises in tilapia cultivation is the low growth of fish caused by the provision of feed that contains high energy but cannot be digested by fish. Utilization of commercial feed as feed for tilapia growth is less effective because the feed is still complex so it requires energy to be broken down into more simple. The method used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) which was then analyzed using one way ANOVA variance. The best results were obtained in treatment 4 with an absolute weight value of 2.97, absolute length of 1.19, specific growth rate of 2.75, survival of 83.33% and feed conversion of 0.95%. The conclusion of this study is the treatment of 4 absolute weight of 2.97 g and absolute length of 1.19 cm.

Abstrak: Budidaya ikan badut Amphiprion ocellaris terus dikembangkan hingga saat ini guna menghasilkan ikan badut yang memiliki pertumbuhan, kelangsungan hidup dan kecerahan warna yang baik. Salah satu permasalahan dalam budidaya ikan badut adalah harga pakan yang cukup tinggi. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui pengaruh laju pemuasaan secara periodik terhadap pertumbuhan, kelangsungan hidup dan kecerahan warna ikan badut Amphiprion ocellaris. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksperimental dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap yang terdiri dari empat perlakuan dan tiga ulangan, yaitu P1 (tanpa pemuasaan), P2 (1 hari dipuasakan 1 hari diberi pakan), P3 (1 hari dipuasakan 2 hari diberi pakan), P4 (1 hari dipuasakan dan 3 hari diberi pakan) sehingga terdapat 12 unit total percobaan. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan uji sidik ragam (One way Anova). Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh adalah pertumbuhan, kelangsungan hidup dan kecerahan warna ikan badut yang mengalami laju pemuasaan secara periodik tidak berbeda nyata (p>0.05) dengan ikan badut yang tidak dipuasakan. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa ikan badut Amphiprion ocellaris dapat dipuasakan hingga periode 1 hari dipuasakan dan 1 hari diberi pakan yang mengalami total pemuasaan sebanyak 20 hari tanpa menurunkan pertumbuhannya. Pembudidaya ikan badut Amphiprion ocellaris direkomendasikan dapat menggunakan semua periode pemuasaan seperti yang diterapkan pada penelitian ini, namun untuk waktu pemuasaan yang lebih lama diperlukan penelitian lebih lanjut oleh para peneliti.   Kata kunci: Pemuasaan, ikan badut, pertumbuhan, kelangsungan hidup, kecerahan warnaAbstract: Amphiprion ocellaris clown fish cultivation continues to be developed today to produce clown fish that have good survival growth and colour brightness.  This study aims to determine the effect of periodic fasting rates on growth, survival and colour brightness of the Amphiprion ocellaris clown fish. The method used in this study is an experimental method using a Completely Randomized Design consisting of four treatments and three replications, namely P1 (without fasting), P2 (1 day fasted 1 day fed), P3 (1 day fasted 2 days fed), P4 (1 day fasted and 3 days fed) so that there are 12 total experimental units. The data obtained were analyzed using the one way Anova variance test. The results obtained were growth, survival and color brightness of clown fish that experienced periodic mastery rates were not significantly different (p> 0.05) from clown fish that were not fasted.This shows that the clown fish Amphiprion ocellaris can be fasted until a period of 1 day fasted and 1 day fed with a total mastery of 20 days without reducing growth. Amphiprion ocellaris clown fish farmers are recommended to be able to use all periods of mastery as applied in this study but for a longer mastery time further research is needed by esearchers.Keywords: Mastery, clown fish, growth, survival, colour brightness

Natural insecticides made from lemongrass plants and zodia which are environmentally friendly insecticides and contribute to mosquito mortality. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of lemongrass insecticides  (Cymbopogon nardus) and leaves of zodiac (Evodia suaveolens) on mosquito mortality (Aedes aegypti), and to determine the treatment of insecticides that were more effective against the mortality of mosquitoes. The research method used the experimental completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications, namely treatment 1 control; treatment of 2 insecticides zodia; treatment of 3 lemongrass insecticides; and treatment of 4 combination lemongrass insecticides and zodia. The results showed that the control treatment did not effect, whereas in the treatment of zodia insecticides, lemongrass and combinations there were influences, presumably this happened because of difference in the chemical compounds of the 2 plants against mosquitoes. The results showed that mosquito mortality was controlled by 0%; mosquito mortality with zodia insecticide of 28%; mosquito mortality with lemongrass insecticide of 16.4%; and mosquito mortality with combination lemongrass insecticides and zodiac of 43.2%. The results of the One Way ANOVA test showed that there were significant differences and tended to experience increased mosquito mortality after being treated. Insecticides that are more effective in causing mosquito mortality are combination insecticides of lemongrass and zodia leaves.Keywords: Vegetable Insecticides, Lemongrass Plants, Zodia Plants, Mosquitoes.ABSTRAKInsektisida alami yang terbuat dari tanaman serai dan zodia merupakan insektisida alami yang ramah lingkungan dan berperan terhadap mortalitas nyamuk.

 This study aimed to evaluate the increasing levels (0, 1, 2, 3 e 4%) of fish by-product meal in diets for laying hens on performance, egg quality and economic analysis. A total of 160 Dekalb White hens with 52-wk old were distributed in a completely randomized design with five treatments and four replicates of eight birds each. The experiment lasted 84 days divided into four periods of 21 days. Estimates of fish by-product meal levels were determined by polynomial regression. Differences (p < 0.05) were detected for all variables of performance, in egg weight, yolk and albumen percentage, yolk and albumen height, feed cost and production cost, in which the inclusion of fish by-product meal in the diets showed better results. It can be concluded that fish by-product meal can be used in diets for hens as alternative feed, with better results in egg production, feed conversion, egg weight, yolk-albumen ratio and a reduction in feed cost and production cost.
