One of the Indonesian government’s policies to achieve national beef self-sufficiency is the 1000 beef village program. The program was piloted in many cattle-farming centers involving the operation of a feed bank to supply animal feed to tackle the challenge of feed limitation during the dry season. This study evaluates the sustainability status of an ongoing feed bank program and its development strategy based on the current progress of a feed bank used to serve five groups of farmers. Ninety sustainability attributes were derived based on six dimensions. The attributes were compiled from the primary data collected using a questionnaire. Expert opinions from practitioners were also considered in evaluating the attributes. The feed bank’s sustainability status and development strategy were determined using the multi-dimensional scaling method with the rapid appraisal approach. It was found that the overall sustainability status of the feed bank was less sustainable, with an overall score of 49.55. The individual dimensions of (A) policy and government support, (B) raw material, (C) facilities and infrastructure, (D) feed bank management, (D) human resource management, (E) price, production, and (F) distribution systems posed sustainability scores of 48.48, 60.33, 48.57, 47.89, 48.76, and 44.64, respectively. Among the 90 predefined attributes, 21 were identified as highly sensitive through both the root mean square and expert opinion. Those attributes led to five main recommended development strategies: (1) strengthening the institution, (2) intensifying training, (3) increasing human resources (4) partnership developments, and (5) increasing the role of multi-stakeholders.
The number of people experiencing antimicrobial resistance continues to increase from year to year it can be a global threat to public health and animal health that can have an impact on the sustainability of the agricultural sector, food security, and environmental security. One of the contributing factors is the lack of public awareness and understanding of the dangers of antimicrobial resistance. For that, we need efforts to increase outreach activities to the community. This study aims to identify the most effective local wisdom- based extension methods for increasing public awareness and understanding of antimicrobial control. The research was conducted using a survey method from September to December 2020 in 10 districts/cities in West Nusa Tenggara. The number of respondents was 71 people determined by positive random sampling. Data were analysis descriptively based on frequency distribution data. The results showed that there were 45 types of extension media that could be used to convey information on antimicrobial control, namely: media extension based on local wisdom as much as 59.15%; conventional extension media 35.21% and modern extension media 5.64%. Extension methods that are effectively applied are extension methods with an 80% group approach; direct communication 86.67% and extension methods with a combination of 91.11% senses. The conclusion is that the local wisdom-based extension method is the most effective method with a group approach, direct communication and uses a combination of the senses of acceptance (sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell).
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has become a global issue in animal, human and environmental health. The AMR profile of Escherichia coli reflects the use of antibiotics in production animals. The purpose of this study was to determine the antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli bacteria isolated from the feces of female Bali cattle with reproductive disorders. Feces samples were taken purposively using a swab on 4 rectums from 7 Bali cattle with reproductive disorders in June 2021 in Lando Village, East Lombok Regency. Escherichia coli samples were isolated on Eosin Methylene Blue Agar media and identified by biochemical tests. An antibiotic resistance test against Escherichia coli was carried out by the disk diffusion method. The antibiotics used in the test were Penicillin G 10 U, Oxytetracycline 30 g, Gentamicin 10 g, and Tetracycline 30 g, and Cefotaxime 30 g. The results of planting on Eosin Methylene Blue Agar media obtained 4 Escherichia coli which were successfully isolated from 4 samples of Bali cattle feces. Data on the level of Escherichia coli susceptibility level to various antibiotics were analyzed using the chi-square test. The results of the susceptibility test to antibiotics showed that 4 samples of Escherichia coli (100%) were resistant to Penicillin G, (25%) were resistant to Oxytetracycline, (25%) were resistant to Cefotaxime, and (100%) samples of Escherichia coli were sensitive to Gentamicin and Tetracycline. The chi-square test on the level of Escherichia coli susceptibility to various antibiotics was significant with p˂ 0.05 (p-value = 0.012). The results of this study have shown that Escherichia coli from Bali cattle feces experience multidrug resistance which later on might have an impact on human health and the environment.
Abstract This community service aims to carry out pregnancy checks for cattle and animal health services at the Pade Angen Livestock Farmer Group, Lando Village, Terara District, East Lombok Regency. The service has been carried out with outreach activities and counseling on management of maintenance and reproductive health of cattle, pregnancy checks and animal health services. The extension activity was attended by 50 participants consisting of the chairman and members of the Pade Angen livestock group and the head of the hamlet. Examination of pregnant cows through rectal palpation was carried out on 10 cows suspected of being pregnant and experiencing reproductive disorders. The results of the pregnancy examination showed that there were cows that experienced fetal death and repeated mating. In animal health services, the number of cattle receiving services is 11 cows. The services provided are tailored to the cow's needs, including vitamin injection and antibiotic injection. It was concluded that this service was very useful in increasing the knowledge and skills of breeders in an effort to increase livestock productivity both in quality and quantity. Keywords: Counseling, Cows, Health Services, Pregnancy Checkup Abstrak Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk melakukan pemeriksaan kebuntingan sapi dan pelayanan kesehatan hewan di Kelompok Tani Ternak Pade Angen, Desa Lando, Kecamatan Terara, Kabupaten Lombok Timur. Pengabdian yang telah dilakukan dengan kegiatan sosialisasi dan penyuluhan manajemen pemeliharaan dan kesehatan reproduksi ternak sapi bali, pemeriksaan kebuntingan dan pelayanan kesehatan hewan. Kegiatan penyuluhan diikuti oleh 50 peserta yang terdiri dari ketua dan anggota kelompok ternak Pade Angen dan kepala dusun. Pemeriksaan kebuntingan sapi melalui palpasi rektal dilakukan terhadap 10 ekor induk sapi yang diduga bunting dan mengalami gangguan reproduksi. Hasil pemeriksaan kebuntingan yaitu ada sapi yang mengalami kematian foetus dan kawin berulang. Pada pelayanan kesehatan hewan, jumlah ternak yang mendapatkan pelayanan sebanyak 11 ekor sapi. Pelayanan yang diberikan disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan sapi meliputi injeksi vitamin, dan injeksi antibiotika. Disimpulkan bahwa pengabdian ini sangat bermanfaat dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan para peternak dalam upaya peningkatan produktivitas ternak baik secara kualitas maupun kuantitas. Kata Kunci: Penyuluhan, Sapi, Pelayanan Kesehatan, Pemeriksaan Kebuntingan
