ABSTRACT: Improving the quality of products of animal origin is an international priority. The use of antibiotics in chicken feed results in residues in these products. Therefore, it was essential to find potential alternatives to growth-promoting antibiotics in order to ban their use in poultry farming.Functional food additives of biological origin can be alternatives to antibiotics allowing quality improvement. Studies have been conducted to examine how probiotic supplementation affects broiler growth performance and microflora population. Thus they ensured that there is a good balance of the intestinal microbiota and an improvement in digestive health and zootechnical performance. The objective of this work is to focus on the different components that perform probiotics and this by going from their mechanism of action and their effects on the zootechnical parameters and the digestive health of the broiler.

ABSTRACT: A Feeding trial experiment was carried out to evaluate the growth, haematological indices and apparent nutrient digestibility of mixed bred finisher pigs fed diets with toasted roselle seed meal supplemented with lysine. Proximate and energy composition was done to determine the nutrient content of the toasted roselle seed meal (RSM) and the experimental diets. Five diets were formulated and fed to forty finisher pigs in a groups of eight each, each group was divided four times with two pigs per replicate in a completely randomized design (CRD). The diets consisted of control and four other diets in which part of soybean meal were replaced with toasted roselle seed meal at 30% each and were supplemented with 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40 and 0.45% lysine.......

ABSTRACT: The development of agricultural robots in recent years vastly promotes the process of agricultural automation. Agricultural robots can accomplish various tasks to help producers manage the farmland better and improve the yield. The world population is expected to hit a whopping number of 9 billion by 2050. What is expected to follow is a dramatic rise in agricultural production, doubling to meet the coming demand. This need has caused farmers to turn to robotics as a solution for the coming future. Nevertheless, the growing population, rise of AI, and new developments in robotics have caused the world of agriculture robotics to explode with innovation.

ABSTRACT: This research was held at PT. Global Health Screening Center which is engaged in the field of health services (laboratory). This study was conducted to examine and analyze the effect of price and service on consumer loyalty through customer satisfaction as a moderating variable at PT. Global Health Screening Centre. This study uses a quantitative approach and the nature of explanatory research. The population of this research is the customers of PT. Global Health Screening Centre. The sampling technique in this study will use the accidental sampling technique, which is set as many as 40 customers who are found in a period of two months. The data analysis method used is structural equation modeling. The results showed that price and service quality had a significant effect on consumer loyalty, consumer satisfaction had no effect on consumer loyalty, price and service had no effect on consumer loyalty through customer satisfaction as a moderating variable.
Keywords: Price, Service, Loyalty, Customer Satisfaction.

ABSTRACT: The extrusion technology of waste poultry feathers is a common feather deep processing technology. Making waste feathers into feed feather meals can greatly improve the utilization rate of poultry feathers. It is for dry feathers, and wet feathers must be dried before further processing. This paper completes the structural design of a drying box for wet feather drying and uses the principle of vacuum drying to realize the conversion of wet feathers to dry feathers.

ABSTRACT:Background: Zein film has good film forming properties, but raw zein film tends to absorb moisture under high humidity condition, resulting in decreased transparency, which limits its application.
Materials and Methods: In order to improve the water resistance, zein film was modified by autoclave treatment. The water absorption, transparency, mechanical properties and enzymatic degradation resistance, as well as the structural properties using Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) were......
