Performa Domba Lokal Betina Dewasa Pada Berbagai Variasi Lamanya Penggembalaan Dan Potensi Hijauan Di Daerah Irigasi Rentang Kabupaten Majalengka
Abstract
ABSTRACT
The reseach about “Local Ewes Performance at Various Variation of Length Grazing and Potential Forage in Rentang Irigation Areaof Kabupaten Majalengka†was conducted from March 25th to July 30th 2015. This research was held to measure the optimum grazing duration on local ewes performance, and measure the potential and carrying capacity of forage as feed for local sheep grazing in Rentang Irigation Range of Kecamatan Jatitujuh Kabupaten Majalengka. local ewes sample in this reseach are 62 and they were spread on grazing variation<4 hours are 19, 4-6 hours are 21, and>6hours are 22. The research method used was a survey to farmer sand direct observation of thelocal ewes. Data were analyzed descriptively, todetermine differences inthe average performance of sheep tested with Analisys of Varian (ANOVA one way) and followed by Duncan's multiple rangetest. Furthermore, to determinethe potential offorage, dotiling (protected squaremeters) and the proximate analysis. The results showed that grazing > 6 hoursis along grazing optimum, evidenced bythe parent's performance overallis betterthan other long grazing. Irrigation Range area has a good potential in the supply forage foranimal feed. The total area ofpotentialin the forage supplyis230,459.08m2andable to provideas much grass field 1229.12 tons Dry Matter Digestible/year. The field grass productionis able to accommodate 7,547sheep. Quality of grass fieldis also quite good with acrude protein and TD Nheramounted to11.30and66.26%
Key words     : Localsheep, length grazing, Performance of Production, andPotentialForage
