Abstract
This study aimed to determine the correlation between body dimensions in female Ettawa crossbreed goats, which had been carried out in Rano Jaya Village, Toari District, Kolaka Regency. The parameters calculated in this study were 21 parameters from 7 body dimensions in goats and 35 study samples. Then the parameters of this study were calculated using the Correlation Coefficient formula to find the level of correlation between body dimensions in female Ettawa crossbreed goats. Based on the results of the study obtained several quantitative properties of female Ettawa crossbreed goat morphology which were observed among them were body surface size. The average linear dimension of the body surface and the standard deviation include: shoulder height (64.12 ± 3.09), chest (29.30 ± 1.72), chest circumference (80.94 ± 5.64), chest width (17.15 ± 1.64), hip height (69.21 ± 2.15), hip width (21.46 ± 3.10) and body length (65.79 ± 4.50) grouped according to physiological status. Calculating of the dimensions of the female Ettawa crossbreed goat body size did not get a perfect correlation, but there were 3 variables that had a very strong (positive) correlation, namely Chest Circumference - Hip Width (0.82), Chest Circumference - Body Length (0.83) and Hip Width - Body Length (0.83). It can be concluded that the dimensions of Ettawa crossbreed female goat's body of 21 variables observed were only three variables which had a correlation value close to 1 indicating a very strong or positively correlated relationship, and it could be said that increasing body size (x) increases body size (y).
Highlights
The equipment used in this study is a measuring stick, measuring tape, digital camera, boot shoes, calculators and stationery as well as table sheets to fill in raw data
Based on the results of the study obtained several quantitative properties of female Ettawa crossbreed goat morphology which were observed among them were body surface size
The width of the chest size can be compared with the results of the study of Novita (2015) the size of the chest width of female Ettawa breeders at the DAY Farm, which is 17.78 ± 2.40. These results indicate that the size of the chest width from the results of the study is almost the same as that obtained by Novita (2015), it can be said that the size of the chest width is not much different from the width of the chest of the Ettawa crossbreed goat in other regions
Summary
Whereas the standard deviation value of 35 samples of female Ettawa Peranakan goats was based on the results of the study showed that the length of the body had a good level of uniformity in researching body size. The standard deviation value from the research results is 3.09 cm, this figure shows that the research data obtained an excellent level of uniformity of 35 high-size samples of female Ettawa crossbreed goat shoulder.
