ANALISIS RISET VETERINER INDONESIA PADA ABATOIR DAN PENYEMBELIHAN HEWAN: METODE DAN PENDEKATAN ILMIAH

Analyzing Indonesian Veterinary Research on Abattoirs and Animal Slaughter: Methods and Scientific Approaches

Abstrak

This systematic review explores veterinary research on abattoirs and animal slaughter in Indonesia, synthesizing studies published from 2014 to 2024 across 20 veterinary journals, including 13 accredited by SINTA and 7 non-accredited. Through a content analysis approach, 37 articles were evaluated to determine research topics, methodological approaches, study designs, analytical techniques, and disciplinary focuses. Findings indicate a variable publication pattern over the ten-year period, no significant correlation between year and number of published articles (r=0.43; p>0.05). Cattle was emerged as the most frequently studied species (13 studies) and the number of each type of research subject differs significantly (c²=79.50; p-value=6.15x10^-14; α=0.05). Quantitative and mixed approaches were commonly employed (17 and 19 studies, respectively) and in terms of quantity, the use of the three research approaches differs significantly (c²=11.7969; p-value=0.0027; α=0.05). Descriptive survey design (32 studies) was the most dominantly performed, and the frequency of use between the three designs is significantly different (c²=21.85; p-value=0.000018; α=0.05). The frequency of use of various data analysis techniques was also not significantly different (c²=94.49; p-value=1.47x10^-19; α=0.05), dominated by descriptive analysis. Veterinary public health was identified as the predominant area of study (15 studies). However, there is no significant difference in terms of the frequency of scientific fields that researchers focus on (c²=1.121; p-value=0.993; α=0.05). These results highlight prevailing research priorities and methodological trends in Indonesian veterinary literature on abattoirs, emphasizing areas for potential growth and future exploration.
