“…However, Yahya et al. () reported that the hot carcass weight, cold carcass weight, weight of lean meat and dressing percentage were dramatically higher in animals fed a diet including soya bean meal than that with 76% of N content supplied in the form of urea. Thus, the urea level supplied in ruminant rations should be reasonable or it will damage the animal's growth performance.…”

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dietary urea in sheep rations having a 50:50 concentrate:roughage ratio. Sixty-four Dorper × thin-tailed Han crossbred ram lambs with an average body weight of 30.8 (±0.02) kg were randomly divided into four groups of 16 sheep each, and each group was fed one of the following diets: a basal diet (CON), or CON supplemented with 0.5% (0.5UTM), 1.5% (1.5UTM) or 2.5% (2.5UTM) urea. Growth performance, carcass characteristics, non-carcass offals, meat quality and peptic tissue lesions were assayed. The average daily weight gains for CON, 0.5UTM, 1.5UTM and 2.5UTM were 216, 218, 200 and 170 g, respectively, with the CON and 0.5UTM groups higher than 2.5UTM group (p < 0.05). Sheep from the 2.5UTM treatment had a significantly lower dry matter intake (1.29 kg/day) than those from the CON and 0.5UTM treatments (1.42 and 1.43 kg/day, p < 0.05), and the feed conversion ratio in the 2.5UTM group was the highest (p < 0.05). Carcass characteristics, including shrunk body weight, empty body weight, hot carcass weight, dress percentage, and the absolute or relative weight (% body weight) of heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney, were not altered by the treatments (p > 0.05). The muscular pH of 2.5UTM was higher than that of CON (5.68 vs. 5.52, p < 0.05), and shear force in 0.5UTM was lower compared with CON and 2.5UTM (p < 0.05). The anatomical structure lesions in kidneys became more serious with the increasing dietary urea concentrations, with the 2.5UTM animals showing the most severe lesions compared with CON animals. Therefore, supplementary urea as a non-protein nitrogen source for sheep should not exceed 1.5% of ration having a 50:50 concentrate:roughage ratio to ensure efficacy and safety.

“…Sagu menghasilkan ikutan berupa ampas sagu. Penggunaan ampas sagu sebagai pakan ternak domba dapat meningkatkan persentase karkas dan bobot karkas (Yahya et al 2011), tetapi kandungan protein rendah 0,6%-07%, kandungan serat 12% dan tidak menguntungkan bagi sebagian ternak ruminansia (Vikineswary et al 1994), dan dapat meningkat dengan fermentasi (Probion) (Uhi, 2007).…”

Peningkatan populasi ternak ruminansia terus menjadi sorotan utama, karena sekitar 60%-70% komponen biaya berasal dari pakan dan sering mengalami fluktuatif karena perubahan iklim dan cenderung lebih mahal. untuk menekan biaya pakan yang cenderung mahal dapat dilakukan dengan memanfaatkan pakan non konvensional seperti hasil ikutan tanaman perkebunan. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis tanaman perkebunan yang hasil ikutannya dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan pakan ternak ruminansia, yang dimulai pada bulan September-Oktober 2022 menggunakan data sekunder berasal dari data statistik Sulawesi Tenggara tahun 2021 yang berkaitan dengan informasi tentang tanaman perkebunan yang hasil ikutan berpotensi sebagai sumber pakan ternak. Hasil kajian menunjukkan di Sulawesi Tenggara ikutan perkebunan yang memiliki potensi sebagai sumber pakan ternak adalah hasil ikutan kakao, kelapa sawit, jambu mete, sagu, kelapa, kopi, dan tebu.

“…Abd Aziz (2002) reviewed on the uses of sago starch as an alternative cheap source of carbon for fermentation process. There were several other studies on the uses of sago palm in food or nonfood products (Yahya et al, 2011;Bhat et al, 2013;Jamaludin et al, 2014;Wahi et al, 2014;Alamaria et al, 2015). Apart from these, sago palms act as carbon sink with the ability to absorb and entrap carbon dioxide from releasing to the environment; this prevalence allows carbon sequestration which further mitigates the issues on greenhouse effect and global warming (Stanton, 1991).…”

Sago palm is one of the commodities being cultivated and traded in Malaysia for its high starch content. Sago seedling, or commonly referred to as sucker, is the planting material for sago cultivation. This paper discusses the life cycle assessment approach for the calculation of life cycle inventory for the production of one sago sucker. In this study, the functional unit is defined as one sago sucker. The process starts from the reception of suckers from suppliers, raft preparation, planting sago suckers in rafts, fertilization, and ends with transportation of the suckers to the plantation. Interviews and data verification were done on-site at the Crop Research and Application Unit (CRAUN) Sungai Talau Research Station. LCI data showed that water was the main input for the production of sago sucker, followed by diesel for transportation, pesticides, and fertilisers. The outcome of this study provides a basis or guideline to planters in implementing sago best agricultural practices for the production of sustainable sago.
