Effect of Superovulation on Piglet Production
Full text linkSixty gilts with average body weight of 107.80 + 5.10 kg were used in an experiment to study the use of PMSG and hCG as superovulation agent to increase piglet production. In this experiment 60 gilts were assigned into a completely randomized design with 4 treatments of superovulation with dose level 0, 600, 1200 and 1800 IU/gilt. Injections were conducted 3 days before estrus. During gestation, gilts were placed in single pigpen, and maintained to term. The parameters were birth weight, preweaning growth and mortality. The results showed that superovulation dose levels of 600 and 1200 IU/gilt increased the piglet birth weight, litter size, preweaning growth and piglet production at 90 days. It is concluded that superovulation with dose levels of 600 to 1200 IU can improve productivity. (Animal Production 8(1): 8-15 (2006
Thyroid Hormone and Blood Metabolites Concentration of Gilts Superovulated Prior to Mating
Get PDFAn experiment was conducted to study injection of pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) as superovulation agent in gilts to improve thyroid hormone and blood metabolites concentraton. In this experiment, 48 gilts were assigned into four groups of twelve gilts injected with PMSG dan hCG dose levels of 0, 600, 1200 and 1800 IU/gilt. Injections were conducted three days before estrus. During gestation, gilts were placed in colony pigpen. On days 15, 35, and 70 of gestation blood collected to determine triiodothyronine, tetraiodothyronine, tryglicerides, glucose, protein and bood nitrogen urea concentration. The resuts showed that superovulation dose levels of 600 to 1200 IU/gilt increased concentration of thyroid hormone (triiodothyronine and tetraiodothyronine/thyroxin) and blood metabolite (triglycerides, glucose, and protein), but decreased blood urea nitrogen in gestation ages 15, 35, and 70 days. It is concluded that superovulation with dose of 600 to 1200 IU can improve of gilts metabolite hormone and blood metabolites.

Pengaruh Pemberian Pupuk Kalsium terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Produksi Tanaman Kedelai (Glycine max (L.) Merr.)
Get PDFFiska M, Amnah R, Wahyuni SH, Hadayani S, Nasution J, Haraha P, Siregar EA, Aziz A. 2022. Effect of calcium on growth and production of soybean plants (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). In: Herlinda S et al. (Eds.), Prosiding Seminar Nasional Lahan Suboptimal ke-10 Tahun 2022, Palembang 27 Oktober 2022. pp. 871-877. Palembang: Penerbit & Percetakan Universitas Sriwijaya (UNSRI).Soybean is one of the legume crops and is the world's main source of protein and vegetable oil. Calcium is one of the essential elements needed by plants for growth and production. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of calcium fertilizer on the growth and production of soybeans. This research was carried out from November 2020 to February 2021. The method in this study was a non-factorial randomized block design (RAK) with 4 types of calcium fertilizer treatments: 0 g/polybag (C0), 0.375 g/polybag (C1), 0.525 g/polybag (C2) and 0.865 g/polybag (C3). The results showed that calcium fertilizer had an effect on the number of pods, weight of pods, weight of filled pods, and weight of seeds. The calcium fertilizer treatment that gave the best results on the growth and production of soybeans was found in the C2 treatment at a dose of 0.525 g
