Feed is an important aspect of the farm. Feeding not only consider nutritional factors but also economic factors. The evidence suggests that drugs such as antibiotics are added to feed for fattening purposes. Utilization of natural materials have a minimal risk of side effects. Turmeric (Curcuma domestica) is the most dominant medicinal plant that produces a lot of waste extraction. This activity aimed to reprocessing of residual extraction becomes an added value commodity such as feed. Patner of this programe was UKOT Naturafit Thibbunnabawi. The feed that produced meets the standar of feed for broilers. Counseling and training can improve participants' knowledge about the use of traditional medicine residues to modify animal feed and motivate participants to develop a farm business.
Abstract. Iriansyah AH, Budiharjo A, Sugiyarto. 2020. Parasites prevalence infecting freshwater fishes in Mulur Reservoir of Sukoharjo District, Indonesia. Bonorowo Wetlands 10: 66-71. Mulur Reservoir is one of the natural fish habitats and consumption fish cultivation in Sukoharjo District, Indonesia. Excessive use of the reservoir area causes the decreasing of water quality which affects fish life sustainability, one of them can cause the fish susceptibility to infection by parasites. The purpose of this research was to identify the types of parasites which infect on consumption of fish in Mulur Reservoir and calculate the prevalence value. Samples were taken by purposive sampling for gourami (Osphronemus gouramy), tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), betutu fish (Oxyeleotris marmorata), catfish (Clarias batrachus), and jambal (Pangasius djambal) 10 fishes for each type. The parts of fish infected by ectoparasites such as body mucus, fin mucus, head mucus, and gills were taken by scrapping and observed under a microscope with magnification between 100-400x. The results showed that 5 types of ectoparasites were Epistylis sp., Ichthyophthirius multifilis, Trichodina sp., Dactylogyrus sp., and Gyrodactylus sp. with an average prevalence of more than 50%. There are more ectoparasites in domesticated fish than in wild fish.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
