“…The total VFA production, which resulted from substituting various levels of C. nardus residue, was lower than that recorded in previous studies. From an in vitro evaluation of 100 % Cymbopogon winterianus waste, Manurung et al [23] reported a VFA production rate at 187.57 mM, which strongly contrasts with ACR3 (37.55 mM) and FCR3 (34.79 mM) from the current study. It can be understood that C. winterianus is a superior citronella species compared with C. nardus, where crude fiber content was 5 -12 % higher.…”

“…Chemically or biologically treating CR showed promising improvements to its nutritional profile as a source of fiber feed for tropical ruminants. Manurung et al [23] reported that the crude protein content in Cymbopogon residue (without pre-ingestion) was at 9.72 % DM. A comparative study of the nutritive value of the residue and fresh material of C. nardus by Sari et al [5] showed lower crude protein (5.82 % versus 7.15 % for residue and fresh material, respectively) and NDF (73.67 % versus 70.17 %, respectively) compared with the results of the current study.…”

Citronella residues (CR) have the potential to be used as an alternative to the fiber diet of ruminants. This study reports on the effects of pre-ingestive CR using ammonia (4 % dry matter (DM)) and fermentation (6 % DM) on in vitro rumen fermentation, metabolism, and methane (CH4) production. Four CR levels of 0, 25, 75, and 100 % DM were used. Each level was repeated 3 times and a complete randomized design method was used. The results showed that pre-ingestive CR significantly increased the pH rumen fluid but decreased ammonia-nitrogen concentration, total iso-volatile fatty acid (iso-VFA) production, and protozoa population (p < 0.01). The pre-ingestive CR significantly decreased the acetic acid composition and rumen microbial protein synthesis (p < 0.05), and significantly increased the proportion of propionic acid, n-butyric acid, and iso-valeric acid (p < 0.05). The total VFA production and rumen CH4 production did not significantly change (p > 0.05). In conclusion, pre-ingestive CR was compatible as a basal diet for ruminants. HIGHLIGHTS Pre-ingestive treated citronella residues used as substitute in ruminant fiber diet 100 % pre-ingestive citronella residues increased rumen fluid pH compared with napier grass 100 % pre-ingestive citronella residues reduced NH3, VFA, and protozoa 100 % pre-ingestive citronella residues had no effect on methane production Rumen fermentation profile of pre-ingestive residue treatments are suitable alternative diets GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

“…The study of Husnaeni et al (2017) reported that 12 days of sea water soaked rice straw produced the higher dry matter digestibility and organic matter compared to unsoaked. Previous studies have reported that ammoniated and fermented C. nardus waste could improve nutrient profile and decrease lignin content compared to untreated C. nardus waste (Manurung et al 2015;Elihasridas et al 2020). However, the comparative studies about soaked and unsoaked of C. nardus pre-treatment with fermentation and ammoniation process are still lacking, especially in Indonesia who produce abundant C. nardus waste.…”

“…Cymbopogon nardus also known as lemongrass or citronella grass is local plant of Indonesia and a perennial plant with long and thin leaves and widely used as the producer of essential oils as its second metabolite. C. nardus leaves are extracted to produce essential oil that can be used as raw material for food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, perfume and even as disinfectant (Manurung et al 2015). Benefits of C. nardus have increased the plantation area into 19,370 hectares and 2,340 ton/years of biomass production in 2017 (Sulaswatty et al 2019).…”

Cymbopogon nardus waste has potential as an ingredient of cattle diet. C. nardus waste requires feed processing to increase ruminal fermentation characteristics. This study has aimed to discover the effect of fermentation and ammoniation treatment of soaked and unsoaked C. nardus on in vitro ruminal fermentation characteristics and nutrient digestibility. Five experimental diets with four replications were evaluated in this study: Cymbopogon nardus (CNW) as control, unsoaked fermented CNW (FCNW1), soaked fermented CNW (FCNW2), unsoaked ammoniated CNW (ACNW1), and soaked ammoniated CNW (ACNW2). A randomized block design was used and followed by post hoc Tukey-HSD if there is a significant effect (P<0.05). The results showed that there was no significant effect (P>0.05) of soaked or unsoaked ammoniated and fermented CNW on in vitro dry matter digestibility (DMD) and organic digestibility (OMD). Meanwhile, there was significant effect (P<0.05) on in vitro digestibility of crude protein (CPD), ADF (ADFD), NDF (ADFD), cellulose (CLD), and hemicellulose (HCLD). There was also no significant effect (P>0.05) of soaked or unsoaked ammoniated and fermented CNW on in vitro ruminal fermentation characteristics (pH, NH3, and total VFA level). In conclusion, soaked ammoniated of C. nardus waste has potential as cattle diet because it has high value of in vitro digestibility of crude protein (56.81%), ADF (47.67%), NDF (48.68%), cellulose (47.19%), and hemicellulose (50.52%).

“…This biomass can be used as cattle feed, either given directly or processed as silage or hay. It has been studied that residual biomass from citronella oil refinery consist of 9.72% of protein and it is better than rice straw (6.25%) that commonly used as feed in small holder farmer of Indonesia [22]. Residual biomass from citronella oil refinery in Petaling Experimental Station contains 6.82% crude protein, GE 3,891 kcal/kg, crude fiber 44.51%, ash 7.25%, and fat 1.41%.…”

Integrated livestock and oil palm plantation as sustainable agricultural bioindustry in Bangka Island, Indonesia

As an emerging economic sector, agriculture in the Province of Bangka Belitung has less contribution both in terms of production and contribution towards farmer’s income. Therefore, the implementation of sustainable agriculture by integrating crops and livestock is argued to increase the competitiveness of agricultural products and farmer’s income. Based on local resources, one of the sustainable agricultural applications that can be implemented in Bangka Belitung is bio-industrial agriculture by integrating oil palm, citronella, and cattle farming to optimize marginal land. The concept of the bio-industrial agriculture model in this project contained several aspects i.e., environmentally friendly, effective and efficient, competitive, and profitable. The model implemented in the farmer groups increased farmer’s income from oil palm plantations and beef cattle. This was due to an increase in the productivity of Bali cattle with an average daily gain (ADG) of 0.22 kg to 0.56 kg, also an increase in the production of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) of oil palm. In general, the model of oil palm-cattle integration is suitable for sustainable agricultural development in Bangka Belitung.
