Cows are livestock that are farmed by humans for generations. Cows are raised to help farmers plow their land to plant various staple food crops. Cows are also beneficial for human life, especially milk and meat which have high nutritional content to educate the brain as well as the skin can be used for making clothes, hats, jackets, shoes and other handicrafts such as drums and others.
Cow farming can improve the economy of farmers, besides farming such as rice, vegetables, rubber, raising fish, chickens, goats, farmers are also still able to raise cattle because of the availability of a workforce capable of raising cows and also supported by cattle breeds that have offspring that have offspring. also good, so that cows can breed well with the addition of cows every time automatically can help the government in improving nutrition and the people's economy continuously.
Plans that have been discussed for a long time have yet to materialize because there are so many obstacles in running this cattle breeding business. In a life that is full of concern With a strong determination and is also accompanied by prayers to God to be able to realize the ideals together then on January 27, 2020 was established Cow Husbandry "Saddle Farm 18" by Iwan Nusadra and Erfan Robyardi.
Vision

- Moving the wheels of the organization so that it can run smoothly in accordance with a predetermined work plan.
- Conduct monitoring and evaluation every time to support the achievement of organizational goals
As a country that was once an exporter of cattle, Indonesia is currently very dependent on imports of meat and live cattle in large enough quantities. Cow imports began in the late 1980s, continued to increase sharply, and the peak occurred in 2010. These conditions position Indonesia as one of the largest live cattle importing countries in the world. At that time it was estimated that imports had reached more than 30% of total beef consumption. This condition has encouraged the government to launch a beef self-sufficiency program from 15 years ago 2000 - 2005 beef self-sufficiency, 2005 - 2010 beef self-sufficiency, and 2009 - 2010 beef and buffalo self-sufficiency. Domestic beef supply mainly comes from Nusa Tenggara, Bali, East Java, Central Java and Yogyakarta Special Region. in this area, livestock is relatively very dense, but often has difficulty feeding during the dry season (dry season), while areas with abundant biomass (feed) in Sumatra, Kalimantan and other areas are relatively empty of livestock.
Based on the Decree of the Minister of Agriculture No. 325 / kpts / OT.140 / 1/2010, bali cattle are determined as native Indonesian herds. Bali cattle are animal genetic resources (SDGH) that produce national pride, which are the nation's pride.
Bali Island as the area with the largest population of Bali cattle, has been designated as one of the areas of preservation of Bali cattle. In this case, the Superior Livestock Breeding Center and Denpasar Animal Feed Forage (BPTU-HPT Denpasar) have the main duties and functions (tupoksi) to produce and distribute superior bali cattle, as well as livestock feeds and forage seeds throughout Indonesia.
Jack Pujianto, Head of Denpasar BPTU-HPT said the vision of Denpasar BPTU-HPT is to realize the genetic quality of Bali cattle and the preservation of national germplasm with an agribusiness perspective. As the only source of bali cattle in Indonesia, Denpasar BPTU-HPT aspires to develop cattle. "We must be proud of Bali cattle, don't be amazed by imported cattle," Jack urged.
Bali cattle have several advantages compared to other types of beef cattle. This was stated by Jack, including the quite high meat production. Other cows are only 30% of the live weight, while Bali cows can reach 40% of the live weight. Then deposition of bali beef in addition to the buttocks is on the shoulder (shoulder). Whereas for other cattle there is no meat deposition on the shoulder.
The uniqueness of other Balinese cows, mentioned by Jack, namely when the calf is still male and female body color is red, white buttocks and the legs are white like socks. However, when the male has reached adulthood turns black. While the female remains red. Besides that Bali cattle are also very adaptive in various conditions.
"The current homework of BPTU-HPT Denpasar is how to make the body weight of Bali cows reach 600 kg. In addition to conducting breeding, breeding and selection efforts, the mindset of the breeder must also be changed. Because when a farmer sells his Balinese cows, the cows he sells are good cows on the grounds he will get more money. This is a negative selection in the science of breeding, "explained Jack.
According to him, through good maintenance management and good feeding, Bali cattle will have tremendous potential. It is proven that 2-year-old Bali cattle can reach a body weight of 450 kg.
"Denpasar BPTU-HPT is based on paddock management grazing between separate males and females. "A female cannot carelessly mate or enter a male paddock, because her pedigree must be very clear," he explained.
Purification of Bali Cattle
Bali is an area that is free from crossing (crossing) in Bali cows. However, outside Bali, it does not guarantee free cross-breeding between Bali cattle and other types of cattle. Jack said that Bali is a pure area of Bali cattle, because it has been established by the Ministry of Agriculture.
"There are several locations that have been designated as sources of seeds. If the location has been determined, then the purity is maintained. Like in Nusa Penida, Bali, New District, South Sulawesi and Central Lombok, " Bali Cow
With the introduction of breeding and cultivation engineering techniques, Indonesia is starting to become self-sufficient in rice and plans to export it next year. This achievement triggers the same treatment for cattle farming. Indonesia's target is self-sufficiency in livestock meat in the next five years.
Indonesia has long faced a beef deficit. The need for this food commodity has not been fulfilled by domestic beef production so imports of beef or cattle are still being carried out. In 2007, beef imports from various countries reached 270,000 tons and tended to increase. Until 2015, with a population of 253 million people, it is estimated that the beef deficit is almost 334,000 tons.
For this reason, the government has begun to look at Bali cows as superior local cattle. According to the Minister of Research and Technology Kusmayanto Kadiman during a visit to the Jembrana Agro Techno Park (ATP) and Nusa Penida, Bali, last week, the cultivation of Bali cattle with modern animal husbandry techniques enabled Indonesia to be self-sufficient in cattle in the next five years.
Bali cattle were chosen for the national program for beef cattle breeding because they have several advantages. Cows that live on the Island of the Gods and Nusa Penida are known as pure Bali cattle. Its genetic purity has been protected by Bali Governor Regulation Number 45 of 2004 and Perda No 2/2003 which prohibits female bali cattle from leaving the province.
Specifically for Bali Nusa Penida cattle, apart from being free of four diseases, namely jembrana, mouth and nail disease, anthrax, and MCF, the reproductive level and meat quality are also high. Nusa Penida cattle also produce Jembrana disease vaccine.
At present, the ratio of bali cattle in Nusa Penida between females and males is considered ideal as a center for cattle development, which is 2.4: 1 in 2006 according to data from the Bali Animal Husbandry Department. Nusa Penida is designated as a Bali Cow Conservation area.
The development of Bali cattle in Nusa Penida was proposed by Sentana Putra, a livestock technology expert from Udayana University (Unud). Potential as a center for conservation and development of Bali cattle was formulated in 2000 and 2005 through the study of researchers from Unud and the Klungkung Regency Government and the Provincial Government of Bali.
The development of Nusa Penida as an open Bali cattle development area with the agreement of the Provincial Government of Bali and the central government to build port facilities, supply roro ships, power plants and water pumps, and castor beans processing machines.
According to research by researchers from Udayana University, a suitable location for the center of conservation and cattle breeding is Bukit Mundi, Klumpu Village, 10 hectares. There, the production of frozen semen, seed breeding, fattening, disease monitoring, feed planting, mini factories to formulate and produce livestock rations, processing livestock waste into bio-gas and organic fertilizer.
Jembrana ATP
On the island of Bali, the provincial government is collaborating with the State Ministry of Research and Technology (KNRT) to develop Jembrana ATP in West Bali on an area of 5 hectares of former horticultural plantations in the Province of Bali.
Jembrana ATP began to be developed in March 2007 until the next five years by involving researchers from the relevant Research and Technology LPND including LIPI, BPPT, and Batan.
The development of Bali cattle in the ATP area, said I Wayan Budiastra, KNRT ATP Coordinator, is expected to overcome three major problems, namely declining population and quality of Bali cattle, imbreeding, and limited access of farmers / breeders to modern livestock technology, including integrated agricultural technology (biocyclofarming).
To stimulate population increase, beef cattle intensification programs are carried out, the implementation of a million artificial insemination acceptors (IB) programs, the construction of a cattle breeding center in the countryside and the establishment of a superior commodity agribusiness center.
Efforts to increase cattle population need to be accelerated through the application of technology so that the target of meat self-sufficiency in 2010 can be achieved. Bali Cow
Indonesia still faces a beef deficit because domestic production only meets 30% national needs. Soedjana et al. (2013) states that participation in consumption of beef and buffalo decreased from 26% in 2002 to 16% in 2011. The decrease was caused the gap between the rate of increase in meat consumption cattle at 4% per year, and the rate of increase cow production is only 2% per year. In period long will occur due to production shortages excessive drainage of cows and buffalo, so breakthrough efforts are needed to improve beef cattle population. Bali Cow is one of the best cattle in the world because it has several advantagescompared to other cattle families. This matter among others are having fertility and percentage carcass is tall and able to adapt well tonew environment. The contribution of Balinese cattle in fulfillment of beef consumption by 26.92% (Purwantho 2012) and has spread almost in all major islands in Indonesia. Challenge The main development of Bali cattle is its limitations feed, which is caused by land depreciation agriculture which is intended as a business non-agriculture. Utilization of pasture fields inoutside Java is not optimal because of the quality already decreased, without treatment programs continuous one. In addition, the procurement of feed ingredients next to the agricultural industry has become a product commercial prices are relatively expensive, so difficult for farmers to reach. Bali Cow
Now the need for beef continues to increase every year. The increase was triggered by population and economic growth, so that people's purchasing power is also higher. Due to the ever-increasing need for meat, this could be an opportunity for you for the cattle business.
However, starting cattle raising as a business field is not an easy matter, it requires special skills, accuracy, and good patience. This is because cows need attention and intensive care, therefore many graduates of animal husbandry are pursuing their majors to become a cattle rancher.
For those of you who do not have the stock of science and bachelor of animal husbandry at all in the field of cattle farming, but you want to do a cattle business. So, you must have strong intention and seriousness.
This is evidenced by adding insight into how to raise cattle and learn various tricks that can be done to start a livestock business, this is done so that you can become a successful cattle rancher. Here is how to succeed in raising Bali cattle.
Get to know Bali Cows
Bali cows are local Indonesian cattle originating from the island of Bali, as well as descendants of bulls that have been domesticated for hundreds of years. As a result of this domestication, the size of Bali cattle is smaller than that of a bull.
The hallmark of Bali cattle is its smooth, shiny, and short fur. Generally, female cows and male puppies are red / yellow brown. the legs and lower abdomen are white, and the buttocks form a semicircle white. from gumba to black tail. And has long horns.
Height of adult male Bali cattle reaches 130 cm and weighs between 350-400 kg (general). While the females, weigh between 250-300 kg. However, if the fattening system is carried out, the cow's weight can reach 500 kg at the age of 6-8 years. Pure Bali cattle can only be found in Bali.
In the short term, to increase beef production nationally, efforts must be made to delay the slaughter in accordance with the genetic potential and economic potential of cattle kept by farmers. currently about 50% of cattle are cut in thin condition, 35% are cut in very thin condition and only 15% are cut in fat condition. This fact shows that there is too much waste in slaughtering cattle to produce a certain amount of beef. For this reason, it is necessary to explore the success of a program that is consistently able to sell cattle with a certain weight as specified.
Since 2002 the NTT Puskud has been running a beef cattle fattening program with a paron system. NTT Puskud acts as the nucleus and breeders as plasma, by utilizing other local food sources. This program has a clear vision and mission, but is arranged in a very simple way so it is easy to understand. NTT Puskud has implemented standard operational procedures on the technical cultivation of cattle fattening that are applied consistently. Standard Operating Procedure has regulated several things including that: (1) Cattle are sold when they have reached a weight of at least 250 kg / head; (2) Sales are made by auction; (3) Cattle are weighed individually at the cage location; (4) Payments are made in cash, and (5) Parts for farmers are paid directly after weighing.
This program is completed with a written contract, which regulates the rights and obligations of both parties. all parties are entitled to obtain accurate information transparently related to various matters in the entire process, starting from the time of procurement of cattle, distribution of cattle, pricing, and weighing of fattened cows, which is very prominent in this program is the mission to prosper the breeders' community itself.
The activity carried out by the NTT Puskud in the paronization model cattle fattening program is an example of a meat improvement program for empowering rural farmers. Cattle that are commonly slaughtered at the Kupang Slaughterhouse are female cows, and their size is still very small, around 200 kg. with fattening and delay selling, cattle can produce about 20-30% more.
A special description of manure and urine processing to improve compost is one of the keys to the success of the cattle integration system. this cannot be separated from the fact that the level of cattle production, especially in Indonesia is constrained not only by the limited number of quality feeds, but also by the continuity of the supply of quality feed, especially during the dry season. Previous studies have shown that the development of cattle through integration is quite promising. Although the contribution of farmers from raising cattle is quite real, not all farmers are willing to develop cattle farming. Therefore, to motivate and stimulate the participation of farmers in raising cattle, a related strategy needs to be pursued. exploitation and development of the availability of biomass produced by cattle, such as feces, urine and leftover food, is used as the main ingredient in the supply of organic fertilizer that is needed by staple crops.

Selection of Bali Cow Seedlings
For you breeders who have long been involved in the world of cattle farming, you should already know about this, but for those of you who are new in this regard, you should pay close attention to the selection of cattle breeds.
Here are the important things that must be considered in choosing bali cattle breeds.
For you breeders who have long been involved in the world of cattle farming, you should already know about this, but for those of you who are new in this regard, you should pay close attention to the selection of cattle breeds.
Here are the important things that must be considered in choosing bali cattle breeds.
- Legs are not deformed. Mouth looks flat.The cow's stomach and rib cage are not curved inside.
- Choose cow breeds whose backs are parallel and not curved. Seedlings have a thick, strong, and sagging neck.
- Differences between which are male and which are female, preferably male. Pay attention to the cow's body projection, a good cow has a large head but is still in balance with its body.
- For the price of beef cattle itself the price is tolerable. Namely for 1 year old cattle between 9-12 million, while the age of 5 months around 5-7 million.
Neighborhood
In making a cow pen, you must pay attention to the location of the cage. A good location for a stable is that the area is far from residential areas but easily accessible and supervised. The distance of the cowshed from the house is at least 10 meters and must get enough sunlight so that his health is maintained.
In general, there are two types of cages, namely group cages and individual cages. Group cages are cages where cows are lined up without barriers while individuals occupy their own cages with limited movement. Whereas individual cages are cages made of a partition between one cow and another cow.
In order for faster growth, it is recommended that you build a cow pen with individual types. Because cows do not fight for food and have limited space. So that cow energy is used little and is focused in meat production. For group cages the opposite of individual cages.
Adult male cage sizes are 1, 5 x 2 or 2, 5 x 2 meters, while for adult female cages 1, 8 x 2 m, and calves measuring 1, 5 x 1m each. With a height of ± 2–2.5 meters, while the temperature of the cage is 25–35ºC with 70% humidity. Bali Cow

Feed
The feed given to livestock is in the form of forage and concentrate. The concentrates used are tofu waste, beer pulp, sugarcane bagasse, rice bran, pineapple skin, soybean skin or using concentrate made by feed mills.
Keep in mind the provision of concentrate must be given first to feed rumen microbes, so that when forage feed enters the rumen, rumen microbes are ready and actively digesting forages.
The need for dry cattle feed is 2.5% of body weight. The forages are damen, corn leaves, and weeds as low-quality feed and elephant grass, odot grass as high-quality feed.
Forage feed is given in the afternoon after milking 30-50 kg / day. feed grass is given to cattle about 10% and additional feed 1-2%.
Whereas for cows that are breastfeeding require an additional 25% of forage and concentrate. Forage should be added nuts and cows should be given drinking water around 10% per day. Bali Cow
Care in the manner of raising Balinese cattle
The treatment done in raising limousine cattle is antibiotics and vaccines, although these cows are strong cows but antibiotics must still be given. Cages must be cleaned every day, this is useful to maintain health and prevent cows stress.
You also need to clean the place to eat and drink cows. besides, don't forget to bathe the minmal cow 2 times a week and cut his nails because it is to maintain the comfort of the cow.
If a cow wants to be grazed it should be tied to a pole, and choose a room that is spacious and covered with lots of grass to feed your cow.
Harvest
If your cows are old enough or mature then your cows are ready to sell. So that the benefits are greater, I suggest that your cows be sold when the big day arrives, such as Eid al-Adha. On big days the selling price of cattle increases a lot more than being sold on normal days. Bali Cow
