This paper is an attempt to describe the relationship between entrepreneurship and innovation. From the discussion, it has been found that both are having bidirectional relationship with each other. Business cannot be regarded as successful enterprise unless the beneficial and useful innovation is not adopted by it at right time. On the other hand, innovation can only be successfully implemented if the entrepreneurs are efficient enough to drive it into the business in appropriate manner so that it can be useful for the business as a whole. In this paper, various factors influencing the innovation in entrepreneurship have also been elaborated. Moreover, from Indian context, some recommendations have also been made which can further encourage the adoption of innovation in an enterprise.

AbstractThe study aims to evaluate the Domestic Resources Cost (DRC) of beef cattle raised either on grazing, or a tethering system of small-scale beef cattle farming. The study was done using a survey method. A total of 120 respondents were selected purposively to consist of 60 farmers applying the grazing system and another 60 farmers applying the tethering system. The parameters measured were socio-economic characteristic, Domestic Resources Cost Ratio (DRCR) and Private Cost Ratio (PCR). Data were analyzed by applying a method of Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM). The result of the study indicated that 87% of those farmers involved in the grazing system and 85% of those involved in tethered beef cattle production, were within the productive age range. In the grazing system, the cattle farmers upstream of Benain-Noelmina watershed area gain the private and social profit levels which is IDR 406,284,-/AU/year and IDR 688,388,-/AU/year, respectively. Further, in the tethering system, the average of private and social profit gain is IDR 855,222,-/AU/year and IDR 1,385,712,-/AU/year, respectively. The small-scale beef cattle farming upstream of Benain-Noelmina watershed has competitive and comparative advantages, indicated by the value of PCR and DRCR which are less than 1. The PCR value was 0.41 in the grazing system and 0.71 on the tethering system; hence, the DRCR of the grazing system was 0.29 and 0.60 of the tethering system.

Desa Oebelo memiliki prospek untuk pengembangan peternakan sapi potong. Namun demikian, kontribusi pengelolaan limbah pertanian masih perlu ditingkatkan akibat kurangnya pengetahuan tentang pengolahan limbah batang dan daun jagung serta feses ternak sapi. Kegiatan pengabdian bertujuan meningkatkan pengetahuan, sikap, dan keterampilan dalam mengolah limbah pertanian sehingga dapat mendukung pengembangan sistem usaha tani terpadu di Desa Oebelo. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat melibatkan kelompok tani ternak Syalom dan Elsadai. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian meliputi penyuluhan, demonstrasi plot pembuatan silase dan bokashi pupuk kandang, serta evaluasi dan pendampingan. Luaran yang dihasilkan meliputi produk silase lamtoro sebanyak 250 kg, silase jerami jagung sebanyak 450 kg, bokashi pupuk kandang sebanyak 1.200 kg, dan pendapatan mitra per proses produksi sebesar Rp.850.000,-. Kegiatan pengabdian memberikan manfaat dalam penguasaan teknologi pembuatan silase dan bokashi pupuk kandang. Anggota mitra kelompok tani juga membangun komitmen untuk menerapkan pengetahuan yang diperoleh dengan terus mengolah limbah pertanian sehingga dapat memberikan nilai tambah dan meningkatkan kualitas lingkungan. Kata kunci: Bokashi, Desa Oebelo, Fermentasi, Lingkungan, Silase ABSTRACT The village of Oebelo has prospect in beef cattle farming development; nevertheless, farming waste management to contribute a value-added is still required to be improved due to the lack of knowledge on cultivating corn stalk and leaves waste as well as cattle feces. The empowerment program aims to improve knowledge, attitude, and skill among the farmers on cultivating farming waste to development of integrated beef cattle farming activities in Oebelo. The program has been involving Syalom and Elsadai farmer groups.

<p><strong>English</strong></p><p>Capacity of land-based forage beef cattle farming is lim ited. Integrated sugarcane and beef cattle farming is an alternative to increase cattle population and domestic beef production. The purpose of this paper are (1) to analyze additional potential capacity of cattle through deve loping integrated sugarcane and beef cattle farming; (2) to analyze feasibility of the integrated farming system; (3) to identify principal constraints of the integrated farming system; and (4) to analyze prospect of the integrated farming system. The study was conducted in East Java Province through interviewing the respondents consisting farmers, farmer groups, and key respondents. The results showed that (1) the potential sugarcane waste of sugar mills was able to accommodate 2.86 heads of livestock units/hectare/ year, but if it did not take into acc ount the waste processed into fuel for sugar mill, then it could produce as many as 2.70 heads of livestock units/h ectare/year; (2) financially the integrated farming was profitable, i.e. Rp12.28 million/year for sugarcane farm ing and Rp9.20 million/year foo cattle farm; (4) business of the integrated farming slowly developed due to small business scale and limited farm ers’ capital. The required policies are (1) business actors’ empowerment and business scale improvement using both domestic and imported cattle; (2) enhancing roles of government and private sector as suppliers of cattle breed; (3) developing complete feed factory using local raw materials; and (4 ) improving technical guidanc e and assistance for farmers to accelerate technology adoption and subsidi zed credit access as source of capital. </p><p><strong><br /></strong></p><p><strong>Indonesia</strong></p><p>Usaha ternak sapi potong berbasis lahan untuk sumber hijauan pakan, daya tampungnya semakin terbatas. Integrasi usaha tanaman tebu dan ternak sapi potong merupakan alternatif pemecahan masalah untuk meningkatkan populasi sapi dan peningkatan produksi daging sapi domestik. Tujuan tulisan ini adalah (1) menganalisis perkiraan potensi tambahan kapasitas tampung ternak sapi potong dengan pengembangan integrasi tanaman tebu-ternak sapi; (2) menganalisis kelayakan usaha pada Sistem Integrasi Tanaman Tebu-Ternak Sapi Potong; (3) mengidentifikasi kendala pokokpengembangan Sistem Integrasi Tanaman Tebu-Ternak Sapi potong; dan (4) menganalisis prospek pengembangan Sistem Integrasi Tanaman Tebu-Sapi Potong. Penelitian dilakukan di Provinsi Jawa Timur melalui wawancara dengan responden yang terdiri dari petani, kelompok tani, dan responden kunci lainnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (1) potensi limbah tanaman tebudan industri pabrik gula (PG) mampu menampung 2,86 ekor ST/ha/tahun, namun jika tidak memperhitungkan bagas karena sudah digunakan untuk bahan bakar dalam penggilingan tebu maka dapat dikembangkan sebanyak 2,70 ekor ST/ha/tahun; (2) secara finansial sistem usaha integrasi tanaman tebu-ternak sapi menguntungkan dengan tingkat keuntungan atas biaya tunai untuk usaha tani tebu sebesar Rp12,28 juta/tahun dan usaha ternak sapi sebesar Rp9,20 juta/tahun; (3) sistem usaha integrasi tanaman-ternak sapi lambat berkembang karena adopsi teknologi masih rendah akibat skala usaha masih kecil dan modal peternak terbatas. Kebijakan pendukung yang perlu dilakukan adalah (1) meningkatkan pelaku usaha dan skala usaha dengan menggunakan sapi domestik dan impor; (2) meningkatkan peran pemerintah dan swasta sebagai pemasok sapi bibit/indukan; (3) mengembangkan industri pakan komplit berbahan baku pakan lokal;dan (4) meningkatkan bimbingan teknis dan pendampingan untuk mempercepat adopsi teknologi dan mengakses kredit bersubsidi sebagai sumber modal peternak.</p>
