Abstrak

Indonesia is a developing country based on agriculture including animal husbandry. In Pulokulon District,
Grobogan Regency, the population of beef cattle reaches 18.858 and the harvested area of food crops reaches
6,186 hectares. At present, Indonesian beef production is still low. Based on this problem, a study was
conducted with the aim of finding out the forage carrying capacity index (CCI) of forage and the addition
capacity of beef cattle in Pulokulon District. The research method used is descriptive analytical. Site selection
using purposive sampling with consideration of the location of the study has a population of 5 large beef
cattle from districts in Grobogan Regency. The data used in the study are secondary sourced from BPS
Grobogan Regency and the Department of Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Grobogan Regency. The data
is then processed and analyzed using CCI (carrying capacity index) feed. From 2018 BPS data, the total
population in 2018 was 108,422 people or 36,003 households with an area of 13,365 hectares. The results
showed that the Pulokulon Subdistrict had an CCI value of 3,43 (>2) which indicated the availability of
feed was still safe and could increase the livestock population to 8,782.23 animal units from the existing
population of 12,281.28 animal units.
