“…Invariably, these non-material benefits are mainly exclusive to indigenous breeds since exotic and crossbreeds are culturally not acceptable as offerings to ancestors, spirit mediums and traditional healers [124]. For instance, Widi et al [125] noted that some communities can maintain small populations of indigenous cattle (e.g., the Madura cattle of Indonesia), particular for certain cultural roles, and cannot be easily replaced by crossbreds. The authors further stated that the value of indigenous cattle used for certain cultural events can be 2 to 3.5 times greater than when the same animal is used for other functions.…”

Livelihood, Food and Nutrition Security in Southern Africa: What Role Do Indigenous Cattle Genetic Resources Play?

et al. 2020

Of the 345 million people in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), 30.6% are severely food insecure, 8% malnourished and 50% live with less than US $1 per day, respectively. Livelihood, food and nutrition security have, therefore, become key priorities for the SADC region in response to these complex challenges. Given that 70% of the SADC population directly rely on agriculture for food, nutrition and income, sustained agricultural productivity may play an important role in achieving livelihood, food and nutrition security in the region. Being an important part of the agri-food system of marginalised communities in the region, cattle have great potential to contribute to the goal of reducing food and nutrition insecurity. The region has a population size of about 64 million cattle of which 75% of the population is kept under the smallholder farming systems, and primarily composed of indigenous tropical breeds. Most indigenous cattle breeds are, however, either undergoing rapid genetic dilution or at risk of extinction. At the same time, their environments, production and marketing systems are experiencing high rates of change in time and space. More importantly, indigenous cattle breeds in the region are undervalued. This makes it uncertain that future systems will have the adapted cattle breeds required for optimal livelihoods, food and nutrition security. To this end, the promotion of sustainable use of indigenous cattle for livelihood, food and nutrition security in the SADC region is strongly recommended.

“…These traditions play an important role to conserve Madura cattle as local Indonesian breed. Widi et al (2013) reported that crossbreeding would not directly influence the cultural events or the management practices of Madura cattle in the karapan and sonok area because crossbred cattle are not suitable to participate in these cultural events.…”

“…In 2010, the crossbred cattle occupied already 53.5% of the population in Madura Island (Nurgiartiningsih, 2010). Crossbreeding is believed to be the most dangerous threat for local breeds in Indonesia with its consequences loss of adaptability (fertility, calf mortality, and disease) (Widi et al, 2013). Crossbred of Limousin and Madura cattle showed steril male and lower reproductive capacity compared to the parents (Sutarno and Setyawan, 2015).…”

Abstract. This research was conducted to evaluate the performance of female Madura cattle in three districts of Madura Island (Sampang, Pamekasan, and Sumenep), known as breeding areas for purebred Madura cattle. Vital statistics of 1,040 female Madura cattle at 24 and 30 months old in Sampang, Pamekasan, and Sumenep district were measured and analysed. Mean of Body weight, chest girth, body length, and wither height of female Madura cattle at 24 months old were 191.7±17.6 kg, 133±3.0 cm, 124.0±2.1 cm, 115.7±2.9 cm, respectively, and those at 30 months old were 209.4±23.6 kg, 138.2±4.5 cm, 125.7±2.6 cm, 116.7±3.4 cm, respectively. The body weight, chest girth, body length of female Madura cattle at 24 and 30 months old in Pamekasan district (216.6±26.5 kg, 135.2±6.1 cm, 125.4±3.9 cm, and 238.0±28.5 kg, 141.5±6.7 cm, 127.9±3.5 cm, respectively) showed the highest value compared to those in Sampang and Sumenep district. Phenotypic correlation between vital statistics and body weight at 24 and 30 months old ranged between -0.43 to 0.90. Chest girth showed the positive highest correlation with body weight of female Madura cattle at 24 months old (0.24) and at 30 month old (0.90). It indicated that chest girth could be used as estimation parameter for body weight in female Madura cattle.

ABSTRAKSapi Madura diseleksi oleh masyarakat Madura menjadi tiga jenis berdasarkan budaya mereka, yaitu sapi karapan, sonok, dan pedaging. Seleksi ini didasarkan pada penampilan sapi dan silsilah tetuanya. Sapi sonok dan pedaging belum dilaporkan memiliki perbedaan pada karakter morfologinya. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis karakter morfologi pada kedua jenis sapi, apakah terdapat perbedaan seperti perilakunya. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan JanuariApril 2016 di Kabupaten Sumenep dan Pamekasan, Madura. Penelitian awal dilakukan melalui wawancara, pengamatan awal, dan studi literatur untuk memperoleh karakter yang akan diamati pada saat pengambilan data. Delapan belas karakter diamati pada sapi sonok dan pedaging. Data kualitatif digunakan sebagai input dalam analisis frekuensi dan principal component analysis (
