FARM PROFIT OF DUCK AND PADDY-WET FIELD AROUND TONDANO LAKE OF MINAHASA REGENCY, NORTH SULAWESI. The population majority inhabiting around Tondano Lake planted paddy-wet filed and raised duck animal. Mono culture system of this plant without diversification of other plants decreased its plant productivity. Increasing income of household farmers by combination of duck integration farm affected conservation of the environmental farm. The objective of this research was to analyze farm profit by combination of paddy-wet field and duck animal of household farmers around Tondano Lake. Data were collected using survey method by observing directly on the paddy-wet field location around Tondano Lake. Types of data were time series and cross section. Samples of household farmers used in this study were defined using simple random sampling. The respondents were defined by purposive sampling method with the criteria of them to have the combination farm of paddy-wet field and duck animal. Based on this criterion, there were ten respondents. The incomes of farm combination between paddy-wet field and duck animal were IDR 75,546,633 per year with the total cost of IDR 26,532,737 per year. Data analysis of income was done by π/C ratio analysis. Results showed that the π/C ratio value was 1.54. It can be concluded that farm combination of paddy-wet field and duck animal yield profit of more than 1 of the π/C ratio, implying that farm diversification system should be applied by household farmers. Keyword: Profit, paddy-wet field, duck animal, farm diversification system.
The purpose of developing beef cattle farming is to increase the population and productivity of cattle products followed by increasing farmers’ income, creating jobs and improving the genetic quality of beef cattle. The problem is that beef cattle farms in North Sulawesi are carried out in traditional management instead of eco-friendly; they are mostly developed by grazing on agricultural land. This study aims to identify the potential strategies to support the development of eco-friendly beef cattle farms. This study used a survey to analyze the role, opportunities and challenges of beef cattle farms in North Bolaang Mongondow Regency. The locations were purposively sampled to include the central area for government-initiative beef cattle development i.e. Sangkub, Bintauna and East Bolangitan districts. The data were subject to internal and external analysis using IFAS matrix, EFAS matrix and SWOT analysis.The results showed that the actual beef cattle population could be increased to 1.37 times. Development is carried out with an orientation to environment and sustainability using LEISA concept. The development of beef cattle was in a condition dominated by strength (the strength value of 1.882 or 76.59%). Opportunities are more quickly responded in the face of the threat of beef cattle development (the opportunity value of 1.842 or 68.09%). In conclusion, the development of beef cattle has a role in increasing the income of farmers and has market opportunities and the challenges can be minimized by increasing the productivity and quality of beef cattle that are environmentally oriented. Technology introduction is needed for the development of sustainable beef cattle farms.
Farmers on the coast of Lake Tondano, mostly cultivate rice crops. In addition, duck farming also developed by farmers as the source of their income. Development of duck with rice was done with an integrated farming system. The problem was, whether integrated farming system of ducks and rice can provide benefits to farmers. This research was conducted with the aim of analyzing the benefits of the integration of duck and rice farming. Determination of research locations in Minahasa Regency was carried out by purposive sampling. This determination was carried out with the consideration that the sample location was the center of development of integrated duck rice farming. Data analysis used was RC ratio and analysis of investment criteria (BC ratio, NPV dan IRR). Farmers’ income from the development of integrated duck rice farming was more than non integration. The results of the research show that the revenue of integrated of rice duck farming per year was Rp. 75,546,633 with the costs of Rp. 49,013,896. The RC value of the ratio was 1.54 which shows that integrated farming provides benefits for farmers. The results of the investment criteria analysis show that the integration of duck rice farming provides benefits to farmers. This was shown from the BC ratio which has a greater value one, the NPV was positive and the IRR was greater than the bank interest rate that applies in the study area. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the integration of duck and rice farming provides greater benefits for farmers. Suggestions that need to be submitted were suggestions for the government to socialize the development of ducks integrated with rice.
The increasing population has a direct impact on the demand for animal food in the form of beef. The problem faced by beef cattle farmers in North Sulawesi province is low production and productivity. This study was aimed to determine the increase in beef cattle population in North Sulawesi Province with (AI) application. This study took place in 12 regencies/cities that carry out SIWAB programs in North Sulawesi Province, namely: Manado, Bitung, Tomohon, Kotamobagu, Minahasa, South Minahasa, Southeast Minahasa, North Minahasa, Bolaang Mongondow, North Bolaang Mongondow, South Bolaang Mongondow and East Bolaang Mogondow. This study is a case study using descriptive methods. Online data tracking techniques in stages from inseminator in the field, district, and provincial data officers. Data analysis consists of S/C, CvR, CR. The observations showed the number of ib application achievements 13682 acceptors, the number of orchards reached 11140 parents and the birth rate reached 8138 heads S/C value 1.22, CvR 73%, CR 81.4%. Conclusion The success of artificial insemination application on people’s farms in North Sulawesi Province can be measured from the value of S / C 1.22, CvR 73%, CR 81.4%, and the increase in the population as much as 8138 heads.
