The results of this study show that Madura cattle rearing provides positive economic value and has the potential to be a stable source of additional income for farmers with a net profit of Rp 6,961,000 during the rearing period. Meanwhile, the value of benefits obtained from cattle rearing include increasing family assets or savings, being a financial guarantee during emergencies, as agricultural labour (ploughing tegal) and producing organic fertiliser to improve soil fertility.
