KAJIAN PERMASALAHAN, KEBUTUHAN DAN POTENSI PENGEMBANGAN PETERNAKAN  PADA KAWASAN AGRO-EKOLOGI TAMBRAUW, PAPUA BARAT

ABSTRAKProduksi pertanian yang dihasilkan belum dihasilkan dari produksi potensial. Produksi yang dihasilkan masih produksi minimal yang sebenarnya dapat ditingkatkan secara maksimal. Keterbatasan dijumpai pada aspek hulu dan hilir sistim peternakan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui permasalahan, kebutuhan dan potensi pengembangan peternakan di kabupaten Tambrauw. Penelitian deskriptif dengan teknik wawancara dan observasi di Distrik Sausapor dilakukan terhadap delapan informan kunci. Pertanyaan difokuskan pada permasalahan, kebutuhan dan potensi sumberdaya alam yang dimiliki oleh peternak. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif naratif dan disajikan dalam bentuk cause-effect diagram, tabulasi dan gambar. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat empat persoalan dasar yaitu rendahnya pelatihan, tidak adanya pos pelayanan pertanian terpadu, sumberdaya manusia pada instansi teknis yang kurang, dan minimnya data potensi sumberdaya alam. Pengembangan masyarakat pelaku usahatani peternakan menjadi sentral isu dalam hal pemberdayaan/pembinaan. Sarana dan prasarana menjadi strategis untuk dikembangkan seperti kantor pos pelayanan pertanian terpadu (P3T). Sumberdaya petugas penyuluh dan tenaga teknis seperti inseminator, dokter hewan dan tenaga paramedis diprogramkan oleh Dinas Peternakan. Pembibitan Hijauan Pakan Ternak perlu dikembangkan bersamaan dengan itu klinik pembibitan ternak menjadi rekomendasi jangka menengah.ABSTRACTAgricultural yields do not produce from farming yields potential yet. It is lower production, which can optimally be increased. Limiting factors are hampering off-farm and on-farm livestock farming systems. The objective of doing this research is to keen on constraints, needs and developing potency in Tambrauw regency. The finding of this research was that the regency has potency in developing livestock farming. This can be done by adapting the development of livestock farming based on the land characteristic. Community development becomes central issues in the case of community empowering. Infrastructures become strategic in further development, such as integrated agricultural service office. The local government shall prepare human resources, such as extension officers, inseminators, veterinarians, and paramedics. The community will recommend forage seeds need to be developed and veterinary clinic in the middle term period.

On Farm

The reduction of the agricultural greenhouse gases, methane and nitrous oxide is likely to play an important role in New Zealand’s transition to a low-emissions economy. A limited range of options currently exists to reduce emissions from pasture-based livestock farming systems. However, several promising options are under development which have the potential to considerably reduce on-farm emissions, such as inhibitors and vaccines. On-farm forestry can be used to offset emissions through carbon sequestration in trees, but more scientifically robust and consistent evidence is needed if soil carbon sequestration is to be used to offset New Zealand’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Nutritional Strategies

Reproductive efficiency of farm animals has central consequences on productivity and profitability of livestock farming systems. Optimal reproductive management is based on applying different strategies, including biological, hormonal, nutritional strategies, as well as reproductive disease control. These strategies should not only guarantee sufficient reproductive outcomes but should also comply with practical and ethical aspects. For example, the efficiency of the biological- and hormonal-based reproductive strategies is mainly related to several biological factors and physiological status of animals, and of nutritional strategies, additional factors, such as digestion and absorption, can contribute. In addition, the management of reproductive-related diseases is challenged by the concerns regarding the intensive use of antibiotics and the development of antimicrobial resistant strains. The emergence of nanotechnology applications in livestock farming systems may present innovative and new solutions for overcoming reproductive management challenges. Many drugs (hormones and antibiotics), biological molecules, and nutrients can acquire novel physicochemical properties using nanotechnology; the main ones are improved bioavailability, higher cellular uptake, controlled sustained release, and lower toxicity compared with ordinary forms. In this review, we illustrate advances in the most common reproductive management strategies by applying nanotechnology, considering the current challenges of each strategy.

Nitrates Directive

The previous articles have shown that preoccupations concerning discharge of nitrate emissions are not recent, even if they have not yet resulted in expected reductions. The Water Framework Directive, which aims at a ‘good’ ecological state of all aquatic environments in 2015, enlarges the objectives of the Nitrates Directive. We are currently witnessing the broadening of objectives for reducing emissions of all forms of nitrogen from livestock farming systems to other compartments, in particular the atmosphere. The reduction of ammonia emissions, which was a little concerned by the French context until now, is a priority for animal systems in several northern European countries. It is a subject of intense efforts of international regulations.

Livestock Systems

Pasture-based livestock systems, often located in High Value Nature farmland areas, hold the greatest potential to deliver public goods across European agricultural systems. They play an important role in preserving agricultural landscapes, farmland biodiversity, cultural heritage, and in sustaining rural development. However, many of these functions are ignored in evaluation frameworks because public goods do not have market price and are often ignored in policy design, so farmers do not get the appropriate incentives to provide them. Different conceptual frameworks can be utilized to evaluate the multiple functions or services of these systems: Multifunctional Agriculture, Ecosystem Services, and Total Economic Value. We analyze the common characteristics of these concepts (e.g. they place human benefits and societal demands at the core of their definitions), their specificities (e.g. use of different units of analysis and spatial-temporal scales), and how they can be embedded in the wider concept of sustainability. Finally, we illustrate how the different concepts can be combined to evaluate pasture-based livestock farming systems from a socio-cultural and economic perspective. The public goods (ecosystem services) provided by representative case studies in Mediterranean and Nordic regions are quantified (also in monetary terms) under different environmental/policy scenarios. The results show that there is a clear underestimation of the socio-cultural and economic values of ecosystem services provided by these farming systems. They also show that the social welfare loss linked to further abandonment of livestock farming, and the associated environmental degradation, is very large. From a societal perspective, it is necessary to jointly measure the biophysical, socio-cultural and monetary values of ecosystem services (market and nonmarket) in order to promote the sustainability of pasture-based livestock systems.
