Alabio duck as one of the genetic resources of South Kalimantan develop rapidly and well-known as an excellent breed of ducks for egg production in Indonesia. However, due to unplanned crossbreeding in the field, presumely the productivity and the purity of Alabio ducks decreased. The study is conducted in order to provide information of the characteristics of body weight, body shape, colour of feather, beak, and shank, and also egg production and egg quality of Alabio ducks at duck farming centers in South Kalimantan. The results indicated that there are uniformity in body weight, ≤ 1,5 – 1,6 kg for female and > 1,6 kg for male at 20-24 weeks of age, bottle for of body shape, 60o elavation, but there are variations in some degree in feather colour, beak colour and shank colour of Alabio duks. The feathers vary between batik (strip) or not-strip with cream as the base color. Meanwhile, the colour of beak and shank vary as light yellow, old yellow and orange. Unless for the higher egg production (91%) in the intensive system and yellow red yolk colour (12,93 RYCF) in the extensive system, egg qualities are not different between production systems.
The ewe Jawarandu goat is one type of livestock that is currently developing both on smallholder farms and industrial-scale farms. The effect of the application of management on goats productivity is reflected in the quality of the qualitative and quantitative traits that develop in goats. This study aims to determine the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of ewe Jawarandu goats in smallholder farms and livestock industries in East Kalimantan. This research was conducted in two places, namely community farms in Lempake Village, Samarinda Utara District, and at PT. Equalindo Farm, Tenggarong Seberang, East Kalimantan. The study used a purposive sampling method, namely the collection technique according to the criteria determined by the researcher, with goats aged 6-24 months. Sampling data using total sampling with all the population according to the criteria as a sample. The results of study stated that the ewe Jawarandu goats in East Kalimantan were dominated by white-brown goats. The results of quantitative characteristics show that average body size in smallholder farms is sequentially higher at body length 57.81±7.35, chest circumference 63.5±6.62, shoulder height 61.31±5.96, and body weight 23. ,65±7.35, while on an industrial scale, the average value was lower with successively at body length 52.54±3.83, chest circumference 60.72±4.28, shoulder height 56.18±5.79 and body weight 19.53±3.42. Several factors that can affect the qualitative and quantitative differences in goats in two different managements are related to the application of management, especially livestock selection, and factors adaptation to the environment. The relationship between selection and adaptation affects goat's productivity.
The pattern of Bali cattle farming in Indonesia is dominated by traditional livestock systems which are identical to local feeding (without taking into account the needs of cattle. This study aims to determine the effect of conventional feeding on the productivity of Bali cattle in Lempake Village, North Samarinda Sub-district, Samarinda City. The study targeted male Bali cattle and measured chest circumference for body weight gain (BWG), Average Daily Gain (ADG), and feed weighing to obtain Dry Matter Intake (DMI) and feed efficiency. The data were analyzed using a multiple linear analysis with the help of a computer program SPSS to assess the correlation between productivity and the independent variables, namely X1 = DMI; X2 = BWG; X3 = ADG; and X4 = feed efficiency. The results showed that the samples had an average DMI, BWG, ADG, and feed efficiency of 16.54, 0.43, 0.43 kg/head/day, and 2.58%, respectively. The regression equation obtained was Y = -1,974+0,005X1-0,0559X2+ 11,685X3+ 1,1287X4 and the coefficient of determination revealed that all the variables had a 90.6% effect on Bali cattle productivity. Bali cattle had a productivity value of 1.85, which shows that the fattening business was profitable or economically feasible.
The sustainability of meat supply has to support by animal production efficiency, understanding the technical efficiency of the Peranakan Etawah goat farming is essential. The current study assessed the technical efficiency of Peranakan Etawah goat production in the North Samarinda Sub-District. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 15 respondents from the study area. The data was collected through a well-structured questionnaire. The analytical tools employed were descriptive statistics and stochastic frontier production function. The result showed that the mean age of the respondents was 44.467 years. The result of the Stochastic Frontier production function showed that the number of buckling and frequency of feed had a positive significant effect on the production output. Farming experience had a negative significant effect on the production output. The mean efficiency was 0.92, indicating a high level of technical efficiency. The study also revealed that the farmers are faced with the problem of lack of access the supplement feed. Although the Peranakan Etawah goat farmers are technically efficient, efficiency could be increased through better use of the available resource.
Pedagang ternak dalam penjualan kambing secara umum menggunakan sifat kualitatif dan kuantitatif ternak dalam menentukan harga ketika proses jual beli ternak. Sifat tersebut mempengaruhi performans yang berkaitan dengan kemampuan produksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi fenotipe dan faktor yang mempengaruhi perdagangan kambing Jawarandu yang dipelihara dan dipasarkan oleh pedagang ternak di Kota Samarinda, Kalimantan Timur. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Desember 2020 - Maret 2021 di pedagang ternak Kota Samarinda. Penelitian menggunakan kambing Jawarandu jantan umur 8 sampai 24 bulan. Metode penelitian dan analisis data dalam penelitian ini yaitu menggunakan metode deskriptif analisis dan analisis keragaman. Hasil penelitian ini diperoleh rataan sifat kuantitatif kambing Jawarandu di kota Samarinda diperoleh nilai rataan dan SD dari Panjang badan, Lingkar dada dan Tinggi pundak (cm) secara berurutan yaitu 63,16±6,14; 70,87±6,48; 69,20±6,24. Keragaman sifat kualitatif kambing Jawarandu di kota Samarinda memiliki warna bulu dominan ditemukan yaitu campuran coklat putih (34,69%). Profil muka kambing yang dominan ditemukan yaitu cembung 100%, dengan bentuk telinga menjuntai ke bawah dan tidak terlipat 100%. Faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap aktivitas perdagangan kambing Jawarandu di Kota Samarinda dipengaruhi oleh jenis bangsa kambing, jenis kelamin, umur kambing, asal kambing, dan berdasarkan biaya (cost-based pricing). Faktor dalam penetapan harga dengan berdasarkan performans akan mampu menambahkan harga jual untuk mendapatkan keuntungan ataupun pendapatan serta mampu menutupi biaya produksi dari pedagang ternak.
