Abstract

This study aims to determine the income and analyze the profit level of the beef cattle business owned by the Sinar Pagi livestock group in Limapuluh Kota Regency, Sumatera Barat Province. This research contributes to the wider debate on improving rural livelihoods and achieving sustainable agricultural development, and is essential for understanding the profitability of smallholder livestock enterprises. The results of this research will provide insights into the financial sustainability of their operations and will inform strategies for the optimisation of their business performance. The research was carried out using a case study method with 16 key informants, also members of the Sinar Pagi livestock group. Data were analyzed with descriptive quantitative methods. The study results show that the income earned by this livestock group in one year of research is IDR 6,471,775, with a profit rate of 1.08/year. It can be concluded that the Sinar Pagi livestock group only gets a profit of 8%, and this profit has not been able to meet the needs of the farmer's life.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of BSF (Black Soldier Fly) maggot in rations on native chicken carcass yield, including body weight, carcass weight, carcass percentage, and abdominal fat. The native chicken that was used in this study was KUB chicken. This study used 100 native chickens aged six weeks, and the study duration was six weeks. Chickens were placed in cages measuring 100×100×100 cm. The experimental method in this study included a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments and four replications. The treatment used treatment T1 (0% maggot flour), T2 (7% maggot flour), T3 (14% maggot flour), T4 (21% maggot flour), and T5 (28% maggot flour). The ration was prepared with 17.5% iso-protein and 2800 kcal/kg iso-energy. Body weight, carcass weight, carcass percentage, and abdominal fat percentage were observed in this study. The results and analysis of variance showed that the inclusion of BSF maggot flour in rations had a significant effect (P<0.05) on body weight and carcass weight, had no significant effect (P>0.05) on carcass percentage, and highly significant (P<0.01) to abdominal fat percentage. In conclusion, using up to 14% of BSF maggot flour produced the best carcass yield on the native chicken of KUB.
