Abstract. Arlina F, Rusfidra, Andriano D, Sumatri C. 2020. Short Communication: The type and sound diversity of Kukuak Balenggek chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) reared by the association of Kukuak Balenggek Chicken Lovers in West Sumatra. Biodiversitas 21: 1914-1919. Kukuak Balenggek is one of the rare indigenous chicken in Indonesia. The number of population and genetic quality of Kukuak Balenggek Chicken (KBC) in in-situ has been decreasing from year to year. This encourages Kukuak Balenggek chicken lovers to found an association, namely Kukuak Balenggek Chicken Lovers, in order to conserve the germplasm native to West Sumatra. This study aimed to identify the type dan the song diversity of Kukuak Balenggek Chicken. A total of 180 adult males of Kukuak Balenggek chicken used in this study came from 32 members of the Association of Kukuak Balenggek Chicken Lovers. The survey method used in this research was purposive sampling. The analysis of data was carried out by descriptive statistical analysis. The parameters observed were the type of sound, number of crowing, number of crowing syllables, and duration of crow. The analysis of Kukuak Balenggek sound used the Cool Record Edit Pro computer software. The result showed that the percentage of sound type of Rantak Gumarang, Sigegek Angin, Alang Babega, Riak Ilia Aia, Ginyang, Ginyang Mataci, Gayuang Luluah were 37.78%, 26.67 %, 7.78%, 13.33%, 3.33%, 5.56%, and 5,56%, respectively. The highest of average, the number of crowing and syllable crowing based on the type of KBC sound was Sigegek Angin sound with an average of 9.48 crowing and 12.48 crowing syllable. While the longest average of Kukuak Balenggek chicken crowing duration was the Gayuang Luluah sound type with an average of 3.33 seconds.

Abstract

The Galanggang Raya Farm livestock group in Nan Balimo Village, Tanjung Harapan District, Solok City, faces a major problem in that there are no grass choppers available to support the feed needs of goats and cattle. This problem has resulted in low feed processing efficiency, a high workload for farmers, and limited availability of quality feed. To address this, this community service activity focuses on technological innovation in the form of designing a grass chopper machine that utilizes local resources, both in terms of materials and technical expertise. The primary objective of this community service activity is to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of cattle and goat farming systems by providing a grass chopper machine capable of producing feed cuts of uniform size, thereby supporting improved feed consumption and optimal livestock growth. Additionally, the use of local components aims to reduce production costs, strengthen the local supply chain, and create new job opportunities in the surrounding farming community. The results of this activity demonstrate that the designed grass chopper machine can produce feed pieces of uniform size, in line with the desired specifications. Feed of uniform size has been proven to increase feed consumption by livestock and positively impact the growth of beef cattle. This innovation not only provides a practical and efficient solution for feed processing but also promotes local economic growth through the use of appropriate technology, strengthening farmers' capacity, and improving farm productivity.
