Abstract

Bali cattle are a type of beef cattle that are widely developed in Indonesia because of their superiority. UPSUS SIWAB is an effort to accelerate the increase of livestock populations by intensifying the breeding of female cattle by utilizing artificial insemination technology.

This study aimed to determine the factors that influence the failure to achieve the target of artificial insemination at UPSUS SIWAB in Jembrana Regency. The method that used to collecting data in this study is by using a questionnaire and analyzed by analysis of factors. The results of this study are used the breeding variables, always called the officiers, and knowing the benefit of artificial insemination is main factors that influence the failure to achieve the target of artificial insemination in Jembrana Regency.
