2024-11-18T10:51:40+07:00

Turkey is a type of poultry with characteristics and tastes similar to chicken meat, so turkey has the potential to be a raw material for meatballs. Carrots are also a source of natural antioxidants, the use of carrots so far has only been for vegetables and juice. Utilization in a fresh state has limitations because fresh carrots are prone to deterioration in quality. This study aims to determine the effect of adding carrot juice on the shelf life and organoleptic of turkey meatballs. This research was conducted in April 2024 at the Production Laboratory, Animal Husbandry Study Program, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Sumatera Utara. The design used in this study was RAL (Completely Randomized Design) with 4 treatments, namely P0 = 0 ml, P1 = 50 ml, P2 = 100 ml, P3 = 150 ml and 5 replications. The parameters used were shelf life and organoleptic color, taste, texture and aroma. The results of this study indicate that the addition of carrot juice can extend the shelf life of turkey meatballs. The best shelf life is in P3 with the addition of 150 ml of carrot juice with a shelf life of 5 days and the lowest shelf life is 1 day

2024-11-18T10:30:27+07:00

Local communities in Bahorok District are highly dependent on the agricultural and livestock sectors as their main livelihoods. The environment and abundant natural resources cause a profitable for the community to raise livestock.This study aims to to examine potential development of cattle farming (financial and economic aspects) in the buffer zone of Gunung Leuser National Park, Bahorok District.The type of data used in this study is primary data obtained through observation and interviews and secondary data through literature and the North Sumatra Central Statistics Agency. Determination of the sample by Purposive Sampling with 100 cattle breeders. Data analysis was carried out by calculating income, financial analysis of Net Present Value (NPV), Net Benefit-Cost (B/C), Payback Period (PP), and economic analysis. The results of this study indicate that the average income of cattle breeders in the Buffer Zone of Gunung Leuser National Park, Bahorok District is IDR 24,551,421 for semi-intensive and IDR 8,235,155 for extensive per year. The income of breeders can cover production costs so that income is positive or profitable. The cattle farming business shows that by using an interest rate of 8%, the NPV is obtained >0 or has a positive value, the Gross B/C value is obtained 1.97 and the Net B/C value is 1.25, meaning BCR>1 means a positive value, the PP value is 3.1 and 4.2 years, and the economic analysis shows that the cattle farming business has an important role in the economy in Bahorok District

Anthelmintic Activity Test of Young Areca Nut (Arecha catechu L.) Extract Against Fasciola sp. Worm Eggs in Goat Feces In Vivo

2024-11-18T10:22:07+07:00

Worm infections in livestock can have a huge risk impact such as decrease in growth, body weight, meat quality and death. This study aims to determine the anthelmintic activity of young areca nut extract (Areca catechu L.) against Fasciola sp. worm eggs in goat feces in vivo and to determine at what concentration the young areca nut extract (Areca catechu L.) is effective in providing anthelmintic effects against worm eggs. The study used an experimental method with a paired t-test of 5 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments given were P0 (negative control), P1 (10% areca nut extract), P2 (20% areca nut extract), P3 (30% areca nut extract) and P4 (positive control using kalbazen worm medicine). Parameters were reduction in the number of dead worm eggs, lethal concentration, Â effectiveness of areca nut extract against worm eggs. The results of the study showed that there were Fasciola sp. worm eggs in all tested goats. Treatment with young areca nut extract (Arecha catechu L.) can significantly reduce the number of Fasciola sp. eggs (P <0.05), with an LC50 result of 26.75%. The best Fecal Egg Count Reduction Test (FECRT) result in the administration of areca nut extract with a concentration of 30% (P3) of 56.75% was the same as that given treatment using kalbazen worm medicine and the lowest FECRT result in the administration of areca nut extract with a concentration of 20% (P2) of 29%.

The Effect of Adding Batak Onion Juice (Allium chinense G. Don) on the Physical and Organoleptic Quality of Chicken Nuggets

2024-11-18T10:49:39+07:00

Chicken nuggets are processed products that are easily contaminated if the processing and storage of the product are not good. Batak onions contain antioxidant compounds that can prevent oxidative damage to chicken nuggets. This study aims to determine the effect of using Batak onion juice on the physical quality and organoleptic quality of chicken nuggets. The study was conducted at the Technology Research Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture and the Animal Production Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, University of North Sumatra in November 2023. The research design used was RAL (Completely Randomized Design) with 4 treatments, namely P0 = 0%, P1 = 5%, P2 = 10%, P3 = 15% and 5 replications. The parameters of this study were physical quality tests, namely pH, cooking loss, water holding capacity, and organoleptic tests of color, taste, aroma and texture. The results of this study indicate that Batak onion juice with a concentration of 5%, 10%, 15% has a significant effect (P <0.05) on the physical quality and organoleptic quality of taste and aroma in chicken nuggets but does not affect the color and texture
