Local cattle farming as an income source for farmers in rural areas is mostly developed traditionally. The local cattle farm continues, even though it is a side business, but is a mainstay in supporting national beef needs. The problem is whether integration of local cattle and food crops have the potential to be developed by farmers. The research was conducted to determine the potential integration of local cattle local and corn in North Bolaang Mongondow Regency. A survey method using a purposive sampling selected 60 farmers from Sangkub District where farmers practiced an integrated cattle-crops farming. Data were subjected to proximate and feasibility analysis. The results showed that the total cattle owned by respondents were 209. The feed consisted of grass and corn waste, with an average consumption of 5.33 and 11.15 kg/head/day, respectively. A proximate analysis of waste corn reported 86.48% dry material, 7.36% crude protein, 1.84% fat, 28.95% crude fiber, 9.10% ash and 68.18% carbohydrate.  Respondents' income from cattle farming in Bintauna and Sangkub Districts were Rp. 151,000,000 vs. Rp. 169,900,000, production costs were Rp. 101,150,625 vs. Rp. 107,298,593.8, and RC ratio was 1.49 vs. 1.58. In conclusion, corn waste consumption was greater (67.66%) than the grass. RC ratio value >1 indicated that cattle farming was feasible. The corn-cattle farming integration system can minimize environmental pollution because it enables the concept of LEISA (Low External Input Sustainability Agriculture).

<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>

The first necessary change for agrometeorology, in generally lower (external) input parts of agriculture in developing countries, is on research and extension. They have to refocus to preparedness for risks and uncertainties of local farming systems in need of support in four defined directions of prioritization, emphasis depending on the farming system concerned. These are (i) extreme events and their consequences caused by meteorological and climatological disasters on all time scales, including related aversion attempts; (ii) pests and diseases, including countervailing measures; (iii) trying to use beneficial climate and weather and (iv) applications of agrometeorological services. The second necessary change for such agrometeorology is participation of farmers in the establishment of agrometeorological services with well trained intermediaries in such undertakings as Climate Field Schools. The third necessary change is that agrometeorological services should be developed in such a way as to increase the resilience of farmers, in line with further and wider developments to be stimulated in rural areas. The most important and most insecure factors, however, will have to do with the socio-political allies to be supported to create - and keep everywhere - on a large scale the enabling environment. To sole cropping work, to which most response farming advisories were dedicated, if any, multiple cropping agrometeorological services have to be added. They should ideally belong to a new service environment in rural areas in progressing countries.
