Abstract

Ruminant productivity is influenced by the quality and quantity of forage. Forage plant that is prospectively developed is Indigofera which has advantages such as high nutrient content, low crude fiber, being able to live in dry areas, and low anti-nutrient. However, as an innovation, adoption, cultivation, and utilization in a sustainable manner depend on several factors. This study was aimed to investigate the potential adoption of Indigofera forage in West Manggarai Regency with a focus on the factors that influence adoption. Data were collected through observations, individual interviews, Focus Group Discussions and study of documents. The number of respondent’s farmers was 59 from seven villages in five sub-districts. The results showed that in terms of the respondent’s characteristic factors, 96.61% were in the productive age, 94.7% had a formal education background, a sufficient number of a household member and a good perception of the Indigofera. From the socioeconomic condition factor, there are introductions of innovations through different patterns involving different actors with different results which can be used as an introduction model. From the characteristic factor, Indigofera forage has higher nutritional content compared to other popular forages, easy to live in the dry land, the process of breeding and cultivation is not difficult for the profession of farmers and has proven the results of development in other regions in Indonesia. Based on the facts and analysis, it was concluded that the Indigofera plant has the potential to be widely adopted and used by farmers in the West Manggarai Regency.

Abstract

Wilayah pantai Timor Barat memiliki banyak pelabuhan tradisional dan merupakan daerah transit nelayan dari dan keluar pulau Timor. Penularan rabies melalui pelabuhan tradisional sangat mungkin terjadi sehingga menempatkan Timor Barat pada kategori daerah beresiko tinggi tertular rabies di masa yang akan datang. Ketersediaan data demografi dan kepadatan populasi anjing di wilayah pantai Timor Barat sangat penting dalam pengendalian rabies yang efektif dan efisien jika terjadi wabah. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menggumpulkan data demografi dan mengestimasi kepadatan populasi anjing di wilayah pantai Timor Barat. Survei telah dilakukan pada bulan Juni-Agustus 2021. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa kepadatan populasi anjing di wilayah pantai Timor Barat berkisar antara 98-333 ekor per km2 dan didominasi oleh anjing berjenis kelamin jantan (62%), berumur lebih dari satu tahun dengan skor kondisi tubuh sedang. Jumlah jantan yang dominan berpotensi mempercepat laju penularan penyakit jika terjadi wabah penyakit zoonosis seperti rabies. Hal ini cukup beralasan karena daya jelajah anjing jantan jauh lebih luas dibanding anjing betina.Keberadaan anjing umur lebih dari satu tahun dan bebas berkeliaran di area umum akan berpotensi meningkatnya laju pertumbuhan populasi anjing mengingat kelompik anjing ini akan bereporoduksitanpa terkendali. Untuk itu edukasi manajemnen pemeliharaan dan kesehatan anjing perlu dilakukanuntuk menekan laju pertumbuhan populasi.
