Analisis Ekonomi Usaha Sapi Potong Yang Mengikuti Dan Tidak Mengikuti Program Inseminasi Buatan Di Kecamatan Waelata

“…Permasalahan umum yang dihadapi oleh peternak lokal adalah rendahnya produktivitas dan kualitas genetik ternak (Rana et al, 2021;Asmairiencen et al 2017), sehingga melalui program IB diharapkan dapat meningkatkan mutu genetik sapi milik peternak rakyat. Peningkatan populasi sapi dilakukan melalui IB yang merupakan teknologi termodifikasi dan diharapkan mempunyai peranan yang signifikan dalam meningkatkan keberhasilan kebuntingan (Zuidema et al, 2021;Sugiarto et al, 2019), efisiensi produksi sapi potong (Kusrianty et al, 2016;Holm et al, 2008), meningkatkan produktivitas ternak baik kualitas maupun kuantitasnya (Polakitan et al, 2021) yang selanjutnya meningkatkan kesejahteraan petani (Dehinenet et al, 2014).…”
