The Use of Citronella Essential Oil (Cymbopogon nardus) to Treat ORF Disease in Local Sheep
ORF disease is a contagious skin infection in sheep caused by a virus of the Parapoxvirus genus. The resulting scabby lesions can lead to decreased productivity and secondary infections. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of citronella (Cymbopogon nardus) essential oil in accelerating the healing of ORF wounds. A total of 24 local sheep infected with ORF were divided into three groups: Group I (1% concentration), Group II (5%), and Group III (10%). The treatment solution was applied topically every two days over a 14-day period. The results showed that Group III had the fastest healing time. Citronella essential oil at 10% concentration was proven effective as a natural treatment for ORF and holds potential for further development in veterinary applications for sheep farmers
Implementation of Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) Extract Nanoemulsion on Production Performance and Income Over Feed Cost in Broiler Chickens
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of temulawak extract nanoemulsion (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) supplementation in drinking water on the production performance and Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC) of broiler chickens. The study utilized 100 broiler chickens of the Loghman MB 202 Platinum strain, which were randomly assigned into four treatments: P0 (control), P1 (4 mg/kg body weight), P2 (6 mg/kg body weight), and P3 (8 mg/kg body weight), with five replications per treatment. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Duncan’s multiple range test. The results showed that the P2 treatment (6 mg/kg) produced the best performance, with a final body weight of 1,677 g/bird, feed intake of 202.83 g/bird, and the lowest feed conversion ratio of 1.34. The highest IOFC was also observed in P2, amounting to Rp11,367/bird. In conclusion, supplementation of temulawak extract nanoemulsion at a dose of 6 mg/kg body weight effectively improved production performance and IOFC in broiler chickens and is recommended for implementation
Synergistic Effects of Water Hyacinth Compost on Vegetative Development of Forage Corn in Degraded Soils
Post-mining lands in Indonesia are characterized by severely degraded soils with low fertility, high acidity, and poor water retention, posing major challenges for agricultural rehabilitation. This study investigates the effect of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) compost at varying dosages (0%, 25%, and 50%) on early vegetative growth parameters of forage maize over a 30-day period. A randomized complete block design was used with six replications per treatment. Key growth indicators—plant height, stem diameter, and their respective growth rates—were measured and statistically analyzed. Results showed that the 50% compost treatment significantly increased plant height (51.87 cm) and height growth rate (1.73 cm/day) compared to lower dosages. Stem diameter parameters, while numerically improved, did not yield statistically significant differences. The improved growth is attributed to enhanced nutrient availability, microbial activity, and water retention due to compost application. These findings confirm that compost from invasive biomass can effectively improve degraded soils and initiate early crop development. The study contributes to sustainable land reclamation strategies and emphasizes that there must be long-term assessments of compost

Inovasi Teknologi Pupuk Organik Cair Dari Limbah Pada Berbagai Varietas Rumput Gajah: Studi Kandungan Nutrisi Di Lahan Eks-Perkebunan Kelapa Sawit : English
This study aims to evaluate the effects of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) derived from waste materials on soil quality and the nutritional content of Napier grass grown on former oil palm plantation land. The research is motivated by the need for sustainable and environmentally friendly fertilization alternatives to improve degraded soil fertility and enhance forage quality for livestock. The methodology included chemical analysis of soil, assessment of LOF quality based on the Ministry of Agriculture standards, and evaluation of nutritional parameters in three Napier grass varieties (Bio Vit, Bio Nutrient, and Bio Grass) under four treatment levels of LOF (P0–P3). Parameters measured comprised soil and LOF pH, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) content, as well as crude protein, crude fiber, neutral detergent fiber (NDF), and acid detergent fiber (ADF) levels in the grasses. The results indicated that the study site soil was acidic (pH 4.5) with low to very low N, P, and K levels. The applied LOF had a pH of 5 and met the required standards for N and K content but failed to meet the minimum requirement for P. Application of LOF significantly increased crude protein and reduced crude fiber, NDF, and ADF content in Napier grass, with the Bio Vit variety showing the most favorable response. Bio Nutrient exhibited stable improvement trends, while Bio Grass showed more variable outcomes, particularly in ADF levels. In conclusion, LOF application can enhance soil fertility and forage quality, particularly in marginal soils. The Bio Vit variety is recommended for its high responsiveness to LOF in improving livestock feed value.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pengaruh penggunaan pupuk organik cair (POC) berbahan limbah terhadap kualitas tanah dan kandungan nutrisi pada tanaman rumput gajah di lahan bekas perkebunan kelapa sawit.

Optimizing Laying Hen Productivity and Egg Quality through Combination of Inorganic and Organic Trace Minerals Supplementation
This research investigates the effects of combining inorganic trace minerals (ITMs) and organic trace minerals (OTMSs) on the performance and egg quality of laying hens. The study employed a completely randomized design (CRD), assigning 60 laying hens to three treatment groups, each consisting of 10 replications of two hens. The treatment groups were as follows: T0 = commercial feed (control), T1 = commercial feed + 500 grams/ton ITMSfeed, and T2 = commercial feed + 500 grams/ton ITMSfeed + 500 grams/ton OTMSS feed. The results revealed that the treatments did not significantly affect performance (P > 0.05). However, eggshell weight was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the T1 and T2 groups compared to the T0 group. Eggshell thickness was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the T2 group compared to the T0 and T1 groups. In conclusion, the addition of a combination of inorganic trace minerals (ITMs) and organic trace minerals (OTMs) to the feed can significantly improve eggshell weight and thickness but does not have a significant effect on the overall performance of laying hens
Determinasi Kualitas Fisik dan Kimia dedak Padi di Kota dan Kabupaten Malang Jawa Timur
Rice bran is a by-product of milling grain into rice. Rice bran is an energy source feed ingredient that is used in both poultry and ruminant feed. The availability of rice bran in Indonesia is very abundant, but the quality varies greatly and is prone to counterfeiting. Chemical testing of rice bran quality is less economical for farmers to apply. One simple quality test to estimate the chemical quality of rice bran in the field is to use physical properties (bulk density, tapped density, true density, angel of repose). This research aims to evaluate the physical and chemical quality of rice bran in Malang City and Regency, East Java, and to create a chemical quality estimation model in the form of crude protein and crude fiber of rice bran through regression analysis and correlation of physical test results. The research results show that bulk density, tapped density, true density, and angle of repose in Malang City and Regency are very diverse. The quality of rice bran in Malang City and Regency, East Java varies greatly. Eleven sub-districts do not have quality rice bran. The physical properties of rice bran in the form of bulk density, tapped density, true density, and angel of repose are highest in Klojen District and the lowest in Pakis District. The highest crude protein content in rice bran is in Klojen District, whereas the lowest crude protein content in rice bran is in Pakis District. The correlation between crude protein and crude fiber on bulk density, tapped density, true density, and angle of repose is very close.Dedak padi merupakan by product penggilingan gabah menjadi beras.
