Abstract

Cattle and maize play important roles in the dryland faming systems in Timor island of East Nusa Tenggara province, contributing  to  the  farmers’  income,  social  status,  and  the  regional  food  security  and  sources  of  income.  However,  the productivity of both commodities is low because of several problems. Lack of feed supply and management knowledge has contributed to the low cattle productivity, while lack of cultivation knowledge and the use of low productivity local maize have caused low productivity in maize. Farmers in Timor in general do not apply fertilizer to their maize plants, although lack of nitrogen (N) is evident in many of their maize fields. There is potential to improve the available N in the soils through the incorporation of herbaceous legumes, which can supply the nutrient to the soil as well as providing good quality fodders for the cattle. Among the introduced herbaceous legumes tested, Clitoria ternatea (butterfly pea) has shown good performances to be used as an alternative herbaceous legume in the farming system for improving soil fertility and maize production as well as to provide good quality fordder for the cattle.   Key words: Crop Livestock System, herbaceous legumes, Clitoria ternatea, Timor, nitrogen fixation, maize

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian pakan hasil integrasi rumput unggul - legume Clitoria tarnatea dan tanaman pangan pada sapi bali jantan penggemukan ditingkat peternak terhadap kadar urea, glukosa, dan hemoglobin darah. Dalam penelitian ini digunakan 8 ekor sapi Bali jantan bakalan pada kisaran umur 1 – 1,5 tahun dengan berat badan 101-134 kg, dengan rataan 114,25 kg dan koefisien variasi 6,12%. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode percobaan menggunakan rancangan bujur sangkar latin ganda (RBSL) dengan 4 perlakuan dan 4 periode sebagai ulangan. Adapun perlakuan dalam penelitian ini adalah P0: pakan hasil integrasi rumput mulato + legum + jagung + kacang nasi + labu kuning, P1: pakan hasil integrasi rumput odot + legum + jagung + kacang nasi + labu kuning, P2: pakan hasil integrasi rumput Setaria + legume + jagung + kacang nasi + labu kuning, P3: pakan hasil integrasi rumput Brachiaria + legum + jagung + kacang nasi + labu kuning. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan Analysis of variance (ANOVA). Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa perlakuan berpengaruh tidak nyata P>0,05 terhadap kadar urea, glukosa dan hemoglobin darah sapi Bali jantan penggemukan. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pemberian hasil integrasi rumput unggul - legume dan tanaman pangan memberikan pengaruh yang sama antar perlakuan terhadap profil metabolit darah sapi bali jantan penggemukan. Integrasi rumput unggul - legume dan tanaman pangan berpotensi untuk diterapkan pada daerah lahan kering karena mampu menyediakan pakan dengan biomassa yang cukup bagi ternak yang dibuktikan dengan profil metabolit darah ternak masih berada pada keadaan normal.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of feeding fodder obtained from diversified dry land farming on daily weight gain, chest girth, shoulder height, and body length of male fattening Bali cattle. This study used a double Latin square design (LSD) with 4 treatments, namely T0 = local feed of farmers in Timor (farmer model). T1 = Diversified farm feed (T1 + mulato grass), T2 = T1 + legume Clitoria tarnatea, T3 = T2 + horticulture by-product using 4 periods as replicates. The livestock observed were eight male Bali cattle aged eight months to one year and weighed 97-121 kg (average 108.5 kg). The results showed that the feeding fodder obtained from the diversified farming had a significant effect (P<0.05) on daily body weight gain but not significant (P>0.05) on the linear body size measurements (chest girth, shoulder height, and body length). Considering the economical and convenient features, T2 feed treatment provided a greater contribution of 21.74% compared to control.

Abstract

Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) has become essential in ensuring sustainable agricultural production amidst ongoing climate change. This study aims to analyze the impact of small rainwater reservoirs (SRRs) on the performance of off-season vegetable farming in Netpala Village, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The SRRs, constructed using plastic tarpaulin with storage capacities of 3.6 m³ and 4.3 m³, were applied to support the cultivation of mustard greens, Chinese cabbage, cabbage, carrots, and eggplant during the December 2017 to April 2018 growing season. An on-farm research (OFR) approach was used to assess the effects of SRR implementation compared to traditional water management practices. Key performance indicators include cultivated land area, planting index, crop diversification, and farmer income. Results revealed that SRRs expanded the cultivated area by 21.07%, increased the planting index by 0.52 for mustard greens and 0.64 for cabbage, and boosted farmer income by 29.38%. Income levels were also influenced by factors such as market absorption, commodity prices, and land availability. These findings demonstrate that SRRs can enhance the resilience and productivity of smallholder vegetable farming systems by improving water availability during the rainy or off-season. SRRs offer a practical and scalable solution to address water scarcity and promote sustainable intensification in vulnerable agricultural regions.
