In this study using primary data obtained from 72 respondents through in-depth interviews, observation and documentation. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a qualitative descriptive approach and an analysis of conversion of dairy cattle dung into methane gas production. The results showed that the potential for renewable energy from dairy cattle waste to biogas was 4,424 kg / day or equivalent to 35.35 m3 / kg with a methane content of 24.75 m3. The utilization of dairy cattle waste in Jetak Village into compost / organic fertilizer has not been done by the community due to a lack of community knowledge and the motivation of people who are still low in processing livestock waste into other products.

Summary

Introduction

The share of eventual energy consumption in Indonesia is command by oil, shadow by gas, coal and hydro energy. Petroleum products and oil imports will increase to meet growing domestic demand. Increasing energy consumption growth will make Indonesia a pure oil importer if there are no new energy resources and energy efficiency efforts from both the Government and society [1]. Indonesia is a time to reduce dependence on fuel oil by developing alternative energy sources that are renewable and environmentally friendly. One type of alternative fuel is bioenergy. Bioenergy can be used continuously because of the raw material for making it is quite guaranteed. Bioenergy has properties that are environmentally friendly, biodegradable and able to reduce the greenhouse effect [2]
