“…For goats, most are farmed by smallholders. In smallholder farming systems, goat production is usually closely integrated into the overall food production system, for example, the production system of PE (Peranakan Ettawah) goats in the Banyumas follows a traditional system characterized by small-scale production with mostly 2-8 animals of various physiological ages per farm [17]. Use of the animals is a function of subsistence, cash income, security, and investment [18].…”

This review describes the production systems and products pertaining to goats and sheep (GS) in Indonesia. These small ruminant species are found across 38 provinces in Indonesia. Almost 99% of the GS are farmed by smallholders, with the animals either being housed in an enclosure (small shed near the farmer’s house) or in a mix of both grazing and confinement. The livestock are typically fed natural and/or artificial feed. Two sheep types, thin-tailed and fat-tailed are the most popular with smallholder producers, while Bali, Etawah, Boerawa, Jawa Randu Kosta, and Gembrong are the dominant goat breeds. As one of the biggest Muslim countries in the world, Indonesian production and consumption of GS is influenced by culture and religious systems. The Halal slaughter method applied is described, as are the religious/cultural festivals in Indonesia, which have a significant relationship on the GS demand and consumption, such as Eid al-Adha and Aqiqah. The preparation, processing, and consumption of GS meat in Indonesia are strongly influenced by the use of spices, being part of the Moluccas archipelago, also known as the “Spice islands” with over 30,000 species of spices grown. Some traditional meats and meat processing technologies in Indonesia are presented to provide insight into how GS meat is processed. The main challenges in the processing of GS meat in Indonesia and some current research on the development of GS production are presented in this paper. Implications: Goat and sheep belong to the most widely consumed meats in the world after pork, poultry, and beef. There are some reasons why GS meat has become one of the more popular protein choices for many families, of which its low-fat levels are one. GS meat is also considered one of the only meats with minimal religious taboos in the world. For these reasons, GS meat is also favored by Indonesian people in the most populous Muslim-majority country. However, information regarding goat and sheep in Indonesia is still lacking. This review aims to provide information on the distribution of GS in Indonesia over 38 provinces, the breed types that grow there, their production, and Indonesian consumption behavior, highlighting the religious festivals that cause the highest demand for these meats. This review provides information to the stakeholders of goat and sheep production chains.

“…Adoption of feed processing technology is one alternative that farmers can choose to increase livestock productivity. Farmers hope that the feasibility and competitiveness of their business can increase through simple applied technology that is useful and easy to adopt [8,[14][15][16][17]. In the innovation adoption decision-making process, [18] explains that before ensuring that an innovation can provide benefits to someone, that person must make a decision to adopt the innovation.…”

Decision-making style describes anecdotally the way each individual makes decisions. The aim of this research was to analyse the decision-making style of farmers in the process of adopting innovative feed for beef cattle fattening. This research is a case study of a group of beef cattle farmers in Kapanewon Bantul, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta. The method for determining groups uses a purposive sampling method. Respondents in this study were all members of groups determined using the census method. Data collection was carried out by direct interviews with respondent farmers using prepared instruments. The data collected was analysed descriptively. Farmers’ decision-making styles based on rational (81.2%), intuitive (72.3%), and dependent (63.4%) dimensions are in the high category, while avoidant (54.4%) and spontaneous (64.4%) decision making styles are in the medium category. The conclusion in this research is that smallholder farmers are very careful in making decisions. Strong priorities emerge for the rational decision-making style. Fattening cattle farmers have considered the risks and benefits of the profits obtained when having to make decisions about using feed innovation because it is seen as a determinant in the livestock business.

“…Productivity of beef cattle is mainly affected by genetic potential, their environmental factors, and interactions of their genetic and environment (Sodiq et al, 2019). The contribution of genetic potential is about 30% while remaining 70% comes from their environmental factors and interactions of both factors can be minimise by supporting appropriate environment (Gamborg and Sandoe, 2005).…”

Domestic beef production in Malaysia is mainly contributed by the indigenous Kedah-Kelantan (KK) and their crossbred cattle. This study was conducted to compare growth performance and sexual maturity of KK and KK × Brangus bulls. Ten (10) experimental bulls with similar ages were kept under the same paddock and fed with equal quality and quantity Guinea grasses and palm kernel cakes. Body weight was measured at monthly basis by using a digital animal weighing scale. Age at sexual maturity was determined by the time of semen ejaculation and quality. The results revealed significantly (p<0.05) greater body weight in KK × Brangus bulls (230.50±9.3 kg) as compared to the pure-bred KK bulls (204.5 ±13.2 kg) at 24 months of ages. KK bulls attained sexual maturity at an earlier age of 21.5±0.4 months, while KK × Brangus bulls attained at 28.8±0.5 months. The growth performance of KK × Brangus bulls was significantly (p˂0.05) higher than KK bulls. Age showed a significant positive correlation with body weight and average daily weight gains. In conclusion, KK pure-bred bulls were superior in terms of attaining age at puberty and sexual maturity earlier, whereas KK × Brangus bulls were better for growth performance.
