“…They have potential to reach about 2.84-3.40 kg BW in 8 weeks and annual egg production (first year) of about 160-200 eggs with large sized tinted white eggs (Panda et al 2005, Bais et al 2014, Giri et al 2014a, Makram 2016. However, earlier researchers (Padhi andSahoo 2012, Padhi 2014) have reported body weight of WP ducks as 859.98 g and 2462.05 g at 4 th week and 8 th week, respectively; and higher body weight gain (g) between 4-6 weeks (979.04) than 2-4 weeks (570.37) and 6-8 weeks (623.03). In Odisha, body weight (g) was 894.…”

In India, the contribution of ducks for egg and meat production is next to chicken. There are many advantagesof duck production over chicken. The important available ducks in the country are few exotic breeds and locallyavailable indigenous ducks. Ducks can be reared under intensive, semi-intensive and extensive rearing system.However, in India, ducks are mostly reared in small flock size as subsidiary source of income. The major duck basedintegrated farming system are duck-fish, duck-rice and duck-rice-fish integrated farming system. Feed is the majorfactor in livestock and poultry production system as it accounts about 70-75% of the total cost of production. Tominimize the cost of production, many locally available alternate or unconventional feed ingredients, viz. azolla,cassava, broken rice are used for feeding of ducks. The constraints of duck farming are mainly the unavailability ofsuitable germplasm, scarcity in natural feed resources, drying of natural water bodies, difficulty in the availabilityof vaccines, poor marketing facilities, etc. In India, there is ample scope for duck production to meet egg and meatdemand of the country. Suitable duck breeds or varieties need to be developed for rural backyard duck farming.Comprehensive feeding packages along with scientific management practices for different types of ducks should beformulated for economic production of duck eggs and meat. There is a need for establishment of hatcheries and other infrastructures in rural areas to promote duck farming for sustainable livelihood of the people.

“…Similarly, the results of crosses between Alabio with Tegal who scored only 7.4% heterosis in egg production for 72 weeks (Hetzel 1983). In India, fifty percent of laying production and egg number in crossbreds up to 72 weeks of age were higher in crossbreds (indigenous x Khaki Campbell ducks) compared to the purebreds (Padhi 2014).…”

Kejadian rontok bulu menyebabkan kerugian bagi peternak karena selama itu itik berhenti bertelur. Sifat rontok bulu dapat dikontrol melalui persilangan antara itik yang tidak rontok dengan itik yang rontok untuk menghasilkan itik dengan tingkat rontok bulu yang lebih rendah. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi sifat rontok bulu pada persilangan itik Alabio dan Peking. Materi yang digunakan adalah 90 ekor betina AP (hasil persilangan Alabio jantan dengan Peking betina) dan 90 betina PA (hasil persilangan Peking jantan dan Alabio betina), 25 ekor itik Alabio betina dan 25 ekor itik Peking betina. Peubah yang diamati adalah lamanya rontok bulu dan produksi telur selama 30 minggu. Data yang terkumpul dianalisis dengan ANOVA dan dilakukan perhitungan pendugaan nilai heterosis. Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan bahwa lamanya rontok bulu pada itik Peking paling tinggi dibandingkan dengan 3 genotipa lain yaitu Alabio,

“…Moreover, it is one of the most famous types of duck in India due to its outstanding meat quality and taste ( Kameshpandian et al, 2018 ). Due to their high population in India, they are called by different names which include Moti, Kadna Hans, and China han in Odisha ( Padhi, 2014 ) and Chinae haras, Cina hanh, Bor China, and Bhatt China in Northeast India ( Alyethodi et al, 2010 ; Banerjee, 2013 ).…”
