“…Sustainability of production would not occur if cattle reproduction did not run as it should (Prastiya et al, 2022). To increase cattle productivity, farmers in Indonesia had recently preferred Limousin-Peranakan Ongole (Limpo) cross cows over local cows (Peranakan Ongole, PO), because the productivity and reproductive performance of Limpo cows were better than PO cows (Agustine et al, 2019). Limpo cattle had a higher birth weight, and higher selling price for male calves than that of PO cattle (Putra et al, 2020).…”

This study aims to compare the reproductive performance of the Ongole cross (PO) and Ongole-Limousin cross (Limpo) on smallholder farmer in Bekri district, Central Lampung regency, Lampung province, a Indonesia. This study used 30 PO cows, 30 Limpo F1 (first filial) cows and 30 Limpo F2 cows. Sample cows had at least two parities and had never had a history of reproductive disorders. This study used primary and secondary data related to sample cows. Primary data was obtained from interviews with farmers and secondary data was obtained from the Department of Plantations, Livestock and Fisheries of Central Lampung regency, and inseminator recording. Data were described descriptively and analyzed using a one-way Analysis of Variance in Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) version 23. The result showed that the services per conception of Limpo F2 cows was higher (p <0.05) than for PO and Limpo F1 cows. Days open and calving interval for Limpo cows (F1 and F2) were longer (p <0.05) than for PO cows. Days open and calving interval for Limpo F1 cows were not significantly different (p >0.05) than for Limpo F2 cows. Reproductive performance of PO cows was better compared to Limpo F1 and Limpo F2 cows. However, there was a data discrepancy between reproductive performance and data on rearing systems, feed quality, and signs of estrus observed by farmers. It could be concluded that PO cows had better reproductive performance than Limpo cows.

“…Reproductive efficiency is an important aspect of increasing the beef cattle population by distributing frozen semen from superior bulls through an artificial insemination (AI) program [ 1 ]. In this decade, farmers have tended to prefer crossbreeding local cattle with frozen semen from European bulls such as Simentals and limousines [ 2 ]. Crossbred cattle tend to produce higher levels of meat and are more expensive in the market than local beef cattle.…”

Objective: This study aims to determine the protein profile based on molecular weight (MW) and testosterone levels in seminal plasma (SP) that correlates to the semen quality of candidate Madura bulls. Material and Methods: A total of 10 male candidate madura bulls underwent semen evaluation (motility, viability, membrane plasma integrity (MPI), and sperm concentration). The centrifuge was run at 1,200 rpm (4°C) for 20 min to collect SP. SP testosterone levels were measured using an Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The characterization of SP proteins in Madura bulls was done using 1D sodium dodecyl-sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis. All parameters were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. Result: The results of the SDS-PAGE analysis found eight protein bands with the highest MW of 110 kDa and the lowest of 12 kDa. The mean and SD of SP testosterone levels were 20.58 ± 8.56 ng/ml, motility 59.32% ± 20.14%, viability 67.45% ± 20.22%, MPI 32.77% ± 16.52%, and sperm concentration 1,002.64 ± 429.33 106/mm3. Proteins with MWs of 110 and 91 kDa significantly correlated with MPI, and 110 kDa negatively correlated with sperm concentration (p < 0.05). Proteins with MWs of 73 and 36 kDa significantly correlated with SP testosterone levels, while proteins with MWs of 29 kDa significantly correlated with sperm viability (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The expressed protein fraction based on MW is closely related to the quality of semen, so it has the potential to be a biomarker of semen quality. Further research is needed to determine the specific proteins in certain fractions.

“…As the name implies, Madura cattle have been reared for centuries by the people of Madura Island, Indonesia. However, in the last decades, the farmers have preferred to crossbreed small local cows through artificial insemination techniques using the frozen semen of European beef breeds, such as Simmental and Limousin [ 2 ]. Meanwhile, there has been an annual increase in the demand trend [ 3 ].…”

Madura cattle are the germplasm of native cattle on the verge of extinction because of crossbreeding. Therefore, the present study was aimed to determine the serum nerve growth factor (NGF) concentration as a predictor of fresh ejaculate fertility parameters in Madura bull candidates. Eleven Madura bull candidates used for frozen semen production were selected for the study. Blood samples were collected using a vacutainer from the jugular vein for analyzing serum NGF and testosterone levels. Meanwhile, semen collection was conducted using an artificial vagina for sperm motility, viability, and concentration assessment. Data were analyzed to determine the correlation among variables and the linear regression of NGF concentration to other significant variables. The result showed that NGF had a significant correlation ( p < 0.05 ) with testosterone levels, sperm motility, viability, and concentration. A significant correlation was observed between testosterone levels, sperm concentration, and sperm viability. The regression equation among significantly correlated variables was determined. For artificial insemination, suitable bull ejaculates for obtaining frozen semen should reach at least 2.12 ng/mL of NGF levels, with sperm viability, sperm concentration, and testosterone levels of more than 78.63%, 1,462.177 million/mL ejaculate, and 25.67 ng/mL, respectively. This is the first study to identify NGF as a predictor of male fertility in bull candidates of Madura cattle. Therefore, NGF levels could be used as a marker of male fertility in Madura bull cattle candidates. Thus, based on the minimum NGF levels, the ejaculate of Madura bull candidate that meets the requirements for frozen semen production could predict fertility.
