TAMPILAN PRODUKSI SUSU SAPI PERAH YANG MENDAPAT PERBAIKAN MANAJEMAN PEMELIHARAAN
Get PDFA study was addressed to evaluate the effect of rearing management improvement particularly for feed and housing management on milk production of dairy cattle. The investigation was performed at Kembang Village, Ampel Sub-District of Boyolali District, a location for Prima Tani implementation, involved the participation of 8 people of farmer group members. A group of four cattle fed the traditional diet, whereas the remaining four were offered the introduced diet containing elephant grass + commercial concentrate + cassava tuber. Measurements were made for feed intake, milk production, and milk density. Results showed that milk production of dairy cattle under the improved management was higher (P<0.05) than that under the traditional one (7.08+ 0.31 versus 4.59 + 0.39 l/head/d). It was determined that the average of dry matter intake of the cattle under the traditional rearing management was 7.79 + 0.61 kg/head/d, while the cattle received the introduced diet consumed 8.29 + 0.61 kg dry matter/head/d. However, the average milk density of the cattle under the traditional rearing management (1.0253) was similar to that of cattle under the improved management (1.0271). The conclusion was that improvement of rearing management increased the amount of milk produced by dairy cattle

Get PDFThis article exposed how customer get value customer in terms of adequated and desired services. For this purpose, the study used SEM method in order to show up the direct relationship among value customer and loyality.Result of the study indicated that customer value has high significant influenced to desired services, but it has negative influenced to loyality. It means that customer loyality will be decrease if their expectation and perception of satisfaction is too high. Meanwhile, the study pointed out that positive and significant influence of adequated services to loyallity. So, whenever adequated services goes up it will increase customer loyality as well
UJI TINGKAT KOMPATIBILITAS DAN UMUR MEKAR BUNGA PADA PERSILANGAN INTERGENERIK ANGGREK Vanda sp DAN Phalaenopsis sp
Get PDFThe study aims to determine the effect of compatibility level to the intergeneric crossing ability and the age of the flower blooming of Vanda sp and Phalaenopsis sp. Research was conducted at a screen house and Plant Breeding Laboratory of Faculty of Agriculture, Sebelas Maret University. Crossing is done by inserting pollen of male parent to the stigma of the female parent which were selected based on a predetermined number of crosses. The observations included: percentage of successful crosses, time of fruit formation, durability of hanging fruit, the percentage of fruit ready for harvest, the percentage of the fallen fruit, and the level of compatibility. The study concluded that the intergeneric cross between Vanda sp and Phalaenopsis sp can be done until the age of 3 weeks after the flowers bloom. The fruit begins to form at the age of 6-12 day after crosses (DAC) and can be harvested after reaching the age of about three months. The intergeneric cross between Vanda sp and Phalaenopsis sp is compatible, because this was capable of producing the fruit of more than 60%

DOSIS PUPUK KANDANG DAN UMUR PANEN PADA PRODUKSI BABY KANGKUNG (IPOMOEA REPTANS)
Get PDFThe research aims to assess the yield of baby kale that can be consumed almost all of the parts and generate organic manure free. Field research was conducted in Sindon Village, Ngemplak, Boyolali in September to October 2016. The research method uses Randomized Complete Block Design factorial with two factors, these are the dosage of manure and the age of harvest. Manure consisted of 4 doses O1 (0 ton/ha), O2 (6 tons/ha) and O3 (8 tons/ha) and O4 (10 tons/ha), and age of harvest consisted of P1 (16 DAS), P2 (20 DAS), and P3 (24 DAS). Variables observed were plant height, number of leaves, internode length, fresh weight, dry weight, leaf area index, and harvest index. The result showed that age of harvest has significant influence plant height, internode length, the number of leaves, leaf area index, fresh weight, dry weight, and harvest index. Manure doses only influence dry weight. Manure dosage of 8 ton/ha and harvest age of 16 DAS is the best combination of baby kale. Manure dosage of 10 ton/ha and harvest age of 16 DAS produce baby kale that can be consumed almost in all parts of the plant with the highest harvest index that is equal to 0.83

Get PDFThis research was conducted to know the production efficiency of beef cattle in smallholder farmer in a dry farming area at dry season. Research has been started on June and finished on September (dry season) at smallholder farmer in the village Kemejing, Semin subdistrict, district Gunungkidul, DIY. The research materials are 28 heads of beef cattle from 17 farmers, which consist of 10 heads of PO breed, 10 heads of a Simpo breed, and 8 heads of Limpo breed with 292.25 kg of initial body weight. This research was using Participatory Rural Appraisal method which is a collecting data process that an active teamwork between data collector and farmer. Collected parameter are feed intake, average daily gain (ADG), feed efficiency, feed cost per gain (FC/G), and income over feed cost (IOFC). Data resulting from this research are 8.42 kg/head/day of feed intake, 0.19 kg/head/day of ADG, 0.021 of feed efficiency, Rp 46.166,62 of feed cost per gain, and Rp 3.985,55 of income over feed cost. It can be concluded that the efficient production of beef cattle in smallholder farmer at the dry area is low because average daily gain, feed cost per gain and income over feed cost produced are extremely small so if the calculated economic result is less favorable
