Abstract
Alabio duck (Anas platyrhynchos Borneo) is one of local germplasm from South Kalimantan. Alabio duck that is currently developing in South Kalimantan is a natural selection carried out by breeders from generation to generation, so it needs to be protected and preserved. The purpose of this paper is to study the potency and problem of preserving Alabio duck in South Kalimantan. Research design conducts by descriptive analysis based on literature study. Alabio ducks have potential as laying ducks and broiler ducks (dual purpose) where the population is almost spread throughout South Kalimantan, even in Central Kalimantan and East Kalimantan. Raising Alabio ducks has been cultivated for generations by generations in South Kalimantan. This livestock business has led to business specialization, there are breeder, hatchery, laying and rearing. The problems in the development of Alabio ducks include the lack of standardization of good breeding quality, product quality (duck) is still diverse, lack of recording knowledge in farmers, postharvest handling and institutional systems in farmers that are not optimal, and disease attack of Alabio ducks. The efforts to preserve Alabio ducks are conducting special mapping of the development and purification areas of Alabio ducks that are adapted to the specialization of livestock business and the establishment of village breeding centers. In addition, counseling/dissemination is carried out on livestock cultivation such as the importance of recording livestock, screening superior breeds, using quality feed and based on local feed ingredients, disease prevention and control, a good Alabio duck breeding system, optimizing a good mating system and monitoring of strict livestock traffic.
