Abstract

This research aimed to develop a Bali cattle farming system in Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) with Lamtoro Taramba feed’s main base. The research was conducted in the Raknamo farmer group, Kupang Regency, Nusa Tenggara Timur. The livestock used in this study were 8 (eight) Bali cattle, age 12-15 months, with an average initial body weight of 134.38 – 146,63 kg. The observation activity was to collect data on Bali cattle’s body weight, which were given the main feed of Lamtoro Taramba for three months and always feed available in cattle-shed, then calculated the daily body weight gain. The research results showed that Bali cattle’s average body weight from the first month of observation is 134.38 kg, the second month is 140,69 kg, the third month is 146,63 kg. The results of the research showed for the daily bodyweight gain from the first to second month (ADG 1) was 0.18 kg/day, the third month increased (ADG 2) by 0.19 kg/day; the statistical data was significant (P < 0.05). So, the daily body weight gain of Bali cattle increases with Lamtoro Taramba main feed.
