Eco-enzyme Disinfection in Pig Housing as an Effort to Suppress Esherechia coli Population

Pig farms are susceptible to infection by Escherechia coli bacteria which causes Colibacillosis. A dirty cage is one of the causes. This can be prevented by disinfection. Eco- enzymes are fermented fruits that contain enzymes and are anti-microbial. This study aims to find a dilution of Eco- enzyme that can suppress the population of Escherechia coli in pig pens. The study was carried out in two stages, first was in in vitro to find the best treatment and second was in in vivo to determine the decrease in the population of E. coli in pig pens after disinfection with Eco-enzymes. The in vitro treatments were P1: Eco enzyme diluted 1:10; P2 1:20 and P3 1:30. Parameters are the area of the inhibition zone and the antimicrobial index. In an in-vivo study, the data taken were the population of E. coli on the floor of the cage and in the waterways before and after disinfection. The results showed that Eco enzyme diluted 1:30 had the best inhibition zone and antimicrobial index. Disinfection of pig pens using Eco-enzyme dilution of 1:30 was successful in reducing the population of E.coli in pig pens

Financial Analysis of the Utilization of Golden Snail Flour (Pomacea canaliculata) With Eco Enzyme Fermentation in Quail Ration

Quail has a competitive ability to compete with other sources of meat in meeting the needs of the community. Feed is the basic need of every animal. From an economic point of view, the cost of feed is very high, reaching 70% of the total cost of quail production. One of the ingredients that can be used as feed ingredients for animal protein sources that are widely available is the golden snail or called the mulberry snail (Pomacea canaliculata L) . One way to increase the nutritional content of feed ingredients is by fermentation. The golden snail flour is fermented using eco-enzymes, where these eco-enzymes are very easy to make and require little cost to manufacture. So it is necessary to calculate the financial analysis of quail feed made using gold snail flour fermented using eco-enzymes. The research design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications. The parameters studied are Total Production Costs, Total Production Results, Profit and Loss Analysis, Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC), and R/C (Revenue/Cost) . Based on the results of the study, it was found that feeding using golden snail flour fermented using eco-enzymes in the ration as much as 12% got the best results, because Total Production Costs, Total Production Results, Profit-Loss Analysis, Income Over Feed Cost (IOFC), and R /C (Revenue/Cost) got the best results compared to other treatments
