ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengukur nilai tambah ternak kambing dan domba dengan sistem pemberian pakan cut and carry dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi produktivitas ternak serta nilai tambah pemanfaatan kotoran untuk produktivitas tanaman. Penelitian dilakukan di Kabupaten Deli Serdang dengan menentukan dua kecamatan sebagai lokasi penelitian yaitu Kecamatan Tanjung Morawa dan Kecamatan Bangun Purba. Penentuan lokasi dilakukan secara purposive sampling berdasarkan populasi ternak ruminansia kecil dan luas perkebunan sawit yang terdapat di dua kecamatan tersebut. Sampel yang diambil sebanyak 100 sampel terdiri dari 50 responden peternak kambing dan 50 peternak domba yang ada di areal perkebunan kelapa sawit. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata pemilikan kambing di lokasi penelitian sebanyak 18 sampai 24 ekor. Penampilan reproduksi kambing dan domba mendekati rata-rata secara umum. Jumlah induk, pakan dari kelapa sawit dan tanaman sela, jenis ternak dan lokasi berpengaruh sangat nyata terhadap produktivitas ternak (P<0,01). Kambing menyumbang kotoran sebanyak 16,86 % dan 11,26 % dari total pohon kelapa sawit yang ada di Tanjung Murawa dan Bangun Purba, sedangkan domba menyumbang kotoran 21,49% dan 22,56 % dari total pohon kelapa sawit. Untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman dan ternak maka disarankan untuk menambah populasi ternak, meningkatkan teknologi dan diversifikasi usaha melalui kerjasama dengan badan pemerintah, perguruan tinggi dan swasta.

The research was done in Deli Serdang Regency by determining two districts as research area: Tanjung Morawa District and Bangun Purba District. Location was determined by purposive sampling technique based on population of small ruminants and area of oil palm plantation in both districts. Sample consisted of 50 goat farmers and 50 sheep farmers. Results indicated that farmers have 18 to 24 heads of goats or sheep. Performance of goat and sheep reproduction tended to similar to genereral performance. Amount of doe, feed from palm oil and intercropped plant, livestock type and location influence significantly at livestock productivity (P<0.01). Goat contributed manure 16.86% and 11.26% of total palm trees in Tanjung Morawa and Bangun Purba, respectively, while sheep contributed manure 21.49% and 22.56% of total palm trees, respectively. Therefore, it was necessary to increase population of livestock, to increase technology and diversification of production. It may be done by Integrated Farming Model of Small Ruminants (T.A. Kusumastuti et al ) 115establishing partnership with local government, animal of science office and private corporation .
