Abstract

The Doktor Mengabdi Program in Pangpong Village aims to empower small-scale plasma farmers under PT Arda and Omid Farm by developing a self-sufficient livestock community. This initiative enhances economic growth through feed entrepreneurship and modern cattle farming. The program benefits 29 partnered farmers managing 58 beef cattle. It includes extension services, training in efficient feed production, and practical workshops on improving feed quality. Farmers also receive education on livestock management and marketing strategies to support sustainable businesses. Regular field visits ensure effective adoption of new practices, while profitability analysis evaluates economic impacts. Key outcomes include improved farmer expertise in feed management, increased feed quality and quantity, and the establishment of profit-oriented cattle farming. A major achievement is the development of a Mini Feedmill, supporting sustainable feed production and long-term livestock farming success. This program significantly boosts farmer income and strengthens the local cattle industry.

Abstract

The Doktor Mengabdi Program in Dumajah Village aims to address challenges faced by the Tani Agung farmers group through five key strategies: (1) enhancing farmers' knowledge via extension services and training in good cattle farming practices; (2) increasing feed availability by promoting the cultivation of superior forage such as elephant grass, odot grass, and indigofera; (3) improving feed quality through ammonia treatment of agricultural waste to optimize local resources; and (4) implementing feed management techniques, including flushing and steaming-up for breeding cattle. Program activities include training sessions, forage planting, practical workshops on ammonia-treated feed production, and the adoption of Mini Feedmill technology for Total Mixed Ration (TMR) production. The program results in improved farmer knowledge, enhanced feed quality and availability, and increased livestock productivity, ultimately boosting farmer income and welfare, supported by the establishment of a Mini Feedmill facility.
