i AbstractLack of baseline quantitative data on the reproductive and productive performance of goats in Bali Province has limited our ability to identify factors that could lead to their improvement. This study aimed to rectify this lack of data and to measure constraints to, challenges of, and opportunities for improving goat production in Bali, through a hybrid method of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats and Analytic Hierarchy Process analyses.Data was collected through direct observations, structured formal household interviews, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and case studies as well as from the surrounding environment and market assessments from January to September 2014. This involved interviewing 175 households with 2,017 goats. Of these, 63 households with 1,169 goats were in Rendang District, Karangasem Regency; 44 households with 590 goats were in Banjar, Busungbiu and Grogak Districts in Buleleng Regency; and 68 households with 258 goats were in Mendoyo District, Jembrana Regency. Data was analysed by using descriptive statistics, correlate bivariate and general linear model multivariate using SPSS version 24.Results revealed that households had an average of 2.3 labourers with a ratio of 5.2 ± 0.4 goats per labourer who were aged 42 ± 1 year. This indicated that household labourers in Bali Province worked 412 ± 9.9 hours/household/year to look after 11.5 ± 0.9 goats/flock in either battery or colony housing with a cut and carry feeding system. Farmers cultivated on average 1.4 ± 0.05 ha/household with vegetables or commodity plantations integrated with goat rearing for 10.5 ± 0.7 years. Of the 175 farmers, 63%, 21% and 15% of farmers graduated from Grades 6, 9 and 12, respectively, and only one farmer graduated from university. This study generated new, important and detailed information on goat production by smallholder farmers in Bali Province. Suggested ways to improve goat production included: High performance (as indicated by GM/doe) was associated with a higher turn off rate (underpinned by a higher reproductive rate); Organic goat rearing management in Rendang District was a model for Bali; The ideal labourer to goat flock size ratio was 1:20 goats; At least 25% of the flock should be does, with a 75% annual turn off rate; The kidding interval should be 8 months; Does should only be kept up to their fourth or fifth kidding; Farmers need to keep records of their goats; A -One gate marketing system‖ should be used to maintain profitable market prices; and  Farmers needed networks with the Indonesia Research Institute for Animal Production to ensure quality breeds, feeds and efficient rearing goat management systems were used in Bali.

Çalışmaya konu olan Yukarı Karasu Havzası, Türkiye’nin doğusunda ve İran sınırına sıfır bir konumda olup Van Gölü Havzası içinde yer almaktadır. Dünyada her geçen gün artan nüfus ve ihtiyaçlar doğal ortam kaynakları üzerinde baskı oluşturarak dönüşü mümkün olmayan çevre sorunlarına neden olduğu bilinmektedir. Benzer biçimde çalışma alanı da artan nüfus, kontrolsüz ve bilinçsiz doğal kaynak kullanımı ve araziden faydalanmada yapılan yanlış tercihler doğal ortam tahribatına ve sorunlara neden olmaktadır. Keza bölgede son yıllarda kendini iyice gösteren kuraklık koşulları, ekolojik ortamda değişikliklere neden olduğu görülmüştür. Yöre insanının bu değişiklikleri fırsata dönüştürdüğü (örneğin kurumuş sulak alanların tarıma açılması gibi) zannedilse de aslında bunun kimi yerde tehdit olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Bu çalışmada Yukarı Karasu Havzası’nın SWOT (Güçlü yönler, Zayıf yönler, Fırsatlar, Tehditler) analizi ortaya konulmuştur. Bunun için arazi çalışmaları ve fotoğraflamaları, istatistiki veriler, çeşitli haritalar (1/25.000-100.000 ölçekli jeoloji, topoğrafya, arazi kullanımı), Uzaktan Algılama (UA) ve Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri (CBS) teknikleri ve literatür çalışmalarından faydalanılmıştır. Bu verilerin sentezi sonucunda sürdürülebilir bir havza modeli için SWOT analizi önerilmiştir. Yapılan bu analizle Yukarı karasu Havzası’nın güçlü yönlerinin, Karasu ve Yücelen Derelerinin yukarı çığırlarının mera potansiyeli açısından zengin olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Zayıf yönlerinin arazinin bilinçsizce/yanlış bir şekilde kullanımı, havzada fırsat olarak, ulaşımda lojistik destek açısından önemli sahada bulunmasının (İran sınırına yakın olması) ön planda olduğu ve kır nüfusunun göçü ve doğal afet riskinin tehdit unsuru oluşturduğu anlaşılmıştır.

Competitive Analyses of the Pig Industry in Swaziland

Over recent decades, Swaziland’s pork industry has been stagnant, failing to meet the domestic demand for pork. It is only in recent years that the number of pig farmers has increased rapidly, with smallholder farmers taking the lead. However, while higher demand for pork could lead to opportunities for growth, with uncertain future markets, increased pig production capacity could subject farmers to extreme market competition and failure to sell their produce. This study used a survey and SWOT analysis to assess the current pig production and market performance of smallholder farms in Swaziland. To quantify SWOT factors, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to derive priorities for subsequent formulation of potential pig production strategies that are resilient both to market and climate changes. Strategy formulation was based on Porter’s cost leadership strategy. The findings revealed that, currently, the pig industry is attractive, and that the present is probably the best time for smallholder farmers to maximize their profits. Unfortunately, the industry was found to be threatened by the expected increase in production capacity, future market competition, and the socio-environmental challenges associated with expansion. Despite this, the findings suggest that smallholder farmers can survive future market challenges by strategically using agro-industrial by-products as alternative feed ingredients to reduce production cost. The formation of farmers’ associations could benefit smallholder farmers through economies of scale, processing and product value addition, and increased access to markets, and unity could strengthen their position in the market when bargaining for better prices.
