Abstract
Beef cattle assistance programs to farmers often fail to develop livestock populations. It needs to be analyzed so that the livestock raising assistance program initiated by the government can be sustainable. This study aims to determine the sustainability status, and sensitive attributes of the beef cattle raising program in Padang Jaya Subdistrict, North Bengkulu Regency, Bengkulu Province. The study was conducted from February to June 2021 through a survey of 54 farmers. The variables collected are five dimensions of sustainability (ecology, economy, socio-culture, technology and infrastructure, as well as law and institutions) in the beef cattle raising program which is divided into 35 attributes. Data were analyzed using the Multi-dimensional Scaling (MDS) RAP-Fish method. The results showed that the sustainability status of the beef cattle raising program in Padang Jaya District was quite sustainable with a sustainability index value of 50.85. The dimensions of ecology, economy, as well as technology and infrastructure are quite continuous with sustainability indexes 52.75, 64.13, and 54.52, respectively. On the other hand, the socio-cultural and legal and institutional dimensions are less sustainable with sustainability index values of 36.50 and 46.33, respectively. Sensitive attributes affect sustainability in each dimension, namely: utilization of cow waste as organic fertilizer and utilization of agricultural waste for cattle feed (ecological dimension); beef cattle are easily sold at relatively high prices (economic dimension); the role of the rowdy group in increasing the knowledge and skills of farmers (socio-cultural dimension); feed processing technology and the provision of vitamins and probiotics (technology and infrastructure dimensions); the role of social/customary institutions, developing farmer cooperatives, optimizing the role of livestock officers in empowering farmers (legal andinstitutional dimensions).
Description
Program bantuan ternak sapi potong kepada peternak seringkali tidak berhasil mengembangkan populasi ternak. Hal ini perlu dianalisis penyebabnya sehingga program bantuan penggaduhan ternak yang diinisiasi pemerintah dapat berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui status keberlanjutan dan atribut yang sensitif pada program penggaduhan ternak sapi potong di Kecamatan Padang Jaya, Kabupaten Bengkulu Utara, Provinsi Bengkulu. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Februari sampai dengan Juni 2021 melalui survei terhadap 54 orang peternak. Variabel yang dikumpulkan berupa 5 dimensi keberlanjutan (ekologi, ekonomi, sosial budaya, teknologi dan infrastruktur, serta hukum dan kelembagaan) dalam program penggaduhan sapi potong yang terbagi atas 35 atribut. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan metode Multi dimensional Scaling (MDS) RAP-Fish. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Status keberlanjutan program penggaduhan sapi potong di Kecamatan Padang Jaya termasuk cukup berlanjut dengan nilai indeks keberlanjutan 50,85. Dimensi ekologi, ekonomi, serta teknologi dan infrastruktur cukup berlanjut dengan indeks keberlanjutan berturut-turut 52,75, 64,13, dan 54,52. Sebaliknya dimensi sosial budaya serta hukum dan kelembagaan kurang berlanjut dengan nilai indeks keberlanjutan masing-masing 36,50 dan 46,33. Atribut yang sensitif mempengaruhi keberlanjutan pada setiap dimensi yaitu: pemanfaatan limbah sapi sebagai pupuk organik dan pemanfaatan limbah pertanian untuk pakan sapi (dimensi ekologi); sapi potong mudah dijual dengan harga yang relatif tinggi (dimensi ekonomi); peran kelompok penggaduh dalam peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan peternak (dimensi sosial budaya); teknologi pengolahan pakan serta pemberian vitamin dan probiotik (dimensi teknologi dan infrastruktur); peran kelembagaan sosial/adat, pengembangan koperasi peternak, optimalisasi peran petugas peternakan dalam pemberdayaan peternak (dimensi hukum dan kelembagaan).
