Abstract

The community service program aims to increase the capacity of goat farming in Toari District, Kolaka Regency, with a focus on increasing farmers' knowledge and skills in livestock management. Through a series of ongoing training and mentoring activities, breeders are equipped with knowledge about livestock management, selecting superior seeds, feed management, livestock health care, financial management and marketing. Program implementation was carried out in an interactive and participatory manner, followed by regular assistance, which resulted in significant improvements in understanding, skills and welfare of farmers, as well as goat livestock productivity. In addition to providing individual benefits, the program also strengthens cross-sector collaboration, creating the potential to improve the overall sustainability of the goat farming sector in the region

Abstract

The community service program in Toari District, Kolaka Regency aims to increase institutional capacity and management of goat livestock. By identifying the needs and challenges of breeders, a comprehensive training and mentoring program was developed. Training includes livestock management, selection of superior seeds, feed management, livestock health care, financial management and marketing. Regular mentoring provides continuous support to farmers after training is completed, so they can implement the skills and knowledge they have acquired into their daily farming practices. The results of implementing this program show a significant increase in farmers' understanding and skills regarding goat management. Farmers become better able to recognize and deal effectively with livestock health, nutrition and reproductive problems, which in turn improves livestock welfare and livestock business productivity. Apart from that, the increase in the welfare of farmers can also be seen from the increase in their income and ability to manage livestock businesses efficiently. This program has also succeeded in strengthening cross-sector collaboration between the government, educational institutions and other stakeholders. This collaboration is the basis for the sustainability of the goat farming sector in the region, because it allows for the exchange of knowledge, resources and support between various related parties

Abstract

Introduction: Organic farming has emerged as a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to food production. However, the adoption of organic farming practices in Indonesia remains slow. Progressive farmers have the potential to act as opinion leaders, accelerating the diffusion of innovations in organic rice farming. This study investigates the role of progressive farmers as opinion leaders in facilitating innovation diffusion for the development of organic paddy fields. Methods: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, non-participant observations, and document analysis involving 17 participants, including progressive farmers, conventional farmers, and agricultural extension agents engaged in organic rice farming development. Data were analyzed descriptively using the framework of social learning theory. Results: Findings indicate that opinion leaders play a pivotal role as initiators, pioneers, information disseminators, and role models in promoting organic rice farming innovations. Their actions and statements regarding innovations strongly influence farmers' decision-making processes. Conclusion: The study concludes that progressive farmers, as opinion leaders, effectively act as change agents and mentors by introducing and fostering the adoption of organic farming practices. The shared socio-cultural background between opinion leaders and their communities facilitates intensive interpersonal communication, ensuring that messages are relevant, credible, memorable, and trustworthy, thereby accelerating innovation diffusion. Nevertheless, the study also highlights certain limitations faced by progressive farmers. Strengthening their communication skills and fostering collaborations with agricultural institutions, such as extension agents and organic farming communities, are essential to further expedite the diffusion of organic farming innovations.

Abstract

Kolaka Regency is recognised not only as a major rice producer but also as an important centre for smallholder livestock farming. The Rice-Cattle Integration System (R-CIS) has been identified as an effective approach to optimize local agricultural resources for smallholder livestock development. However, its dissemination has remained limited due to the uneven carrying capacity of rice fields across different regions. This study aimed to analyse the current and projected carrying capacity of rice fields in Kolaka Regency, Southeast Sulawesi (20232024), considering land availability, livestock population, and feed resources. Data analysis included assessments of land carrying capacity, livestock density, livestock concentration index (LCI), and feed concentration index (FCI). Results indicated that Kolaka had 12,203 ha of rice fields, producing 3,188 tons of crude protein (CP) annually from unfermented rice straw and 10,539 tons CP/year from fermented straw. Feed distribution within the regency was uneven: in districts such as Baula, Pomalaa, Samaturu, Wolo, and Wundulako, livestock populations could be increased, whereas Toari and Watubangga exceeded carrying capacity even after straw fermentation. The study estimated that fermented straw could support an additional 24,335 livestock units (LU) across Kolaka Regency, equivalent to about 2,028 LU per district annually. These findings highlight the need for inter-district feed substitution and livestock redistribution. Overall, fermented rice straw significantly enhanced feed availability, thereby supporting sustainable livestock production.
