Abstract. This study aims to determine the effect of five variables characteristic of KUB chicken
innovation, including relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability, on
farmers' perceptions in developing KUB chickens. It consists of four farmer groups in Cereme Taba Village,
Lubuk Linggau City. The determination of the study location was taken purposively based on the
consideration that Lubuk Linggau City was used for the development of KUB chickens. The study method
used descriptive quantitative analysis to obtain 95 members of the farmer groups as respondents.
Furthermore, the variables studied were the innovation characteristics and farmers' perceptions measured by
a mathematical model using the score category of each variable and the SIM (Successive Interval Method)
program. The results showed that the farmers' perceptions of the five variables were included in the agree
category. It obtains positive support from respondents by looking at the advantages of implementing a
technology package on the development of KUB chickens. From an environmental aspect, the development
of KUB chickens can reduce household and market waste, especially vegetable waste used as a source of
chicken feed. Waste reduction has a positive impact on environmentally friendly pollution.
1. Introduction
Indonesia has a lot of poultry genetic resources that can still be optimized. One local chicken with
genetic variation and high adaptive power is the "Ayam Kampung Balitbangtan" (KUB chicken). KUB
chicken is one of the breeds of native chicken (Gallus-gallus domesticus) originating from Cianjur,
Depok, Majalengka, and Bogor areas, West Java Province. Furthermore, this KUB chicken results from
a selection of local breeds in West Java and DKI Jakarta for 6 generations and has received a Decree on
the Release from the Minister of Agriculture [1].
South Sumatra is one of the provinces with a population of native chickens, which has continually
increased in the last five years by 17.37% of the total national poultry population [2]. The increase shows
that the public's interest in developing native chickens is still relatively high. Subsequently, the demand
for local chicken continues to increase while production has not been able to keep up with. The demand
in urban areas with the increasing number of restaurants and households that consume local chicken as
a diversification for meat has resulted in the depletion and scarcity of local chicken seeds [3].
The KUB chicken selection criteria maximize egg production while minimizing brooding
characteristics. The average egg production reached 180 eggs/year, expected to produce large amounts
of DOC [4]. The selection until the third generation showed an increase in egg production which was
quite good from the original 54.32 eggs/head/six months to 89.10 eggs [5]. These results are different

from the average egg production of native chickens, which reached 20% (73 eggs per year per head) and
30% (110 eggs per year per head) in semi-intensive and intensive maintenance [6]. KUB chickens are
pure native chickens with the advantage of high egg production, which is 60% hen day with incubating
properties of 10% of the total population [7]. Furthermore, KUB chicken egg weighs 35-45 grams with
a feed conversion of 3.8. It is also a meat-producing chicken type and can reach a bodyweight of 1 kg
within 2.5 months in males [5].
A dissemination process is needed to develop and disseminate the advantages of the KUB chicken.
One of the dissemination programs is the development of KUB chickens in the province of South
Sumatra by introducing a technology package based on the study results. Lubuk Linggau City is one of
the locations for developing KUB chickens on a household scale involving four farmer groups in Cereme
Taba Village. Meanwhile, understanding technological innovation is crucial for increasing adoption and
improving the quality and quantity of livestock production. The adoption of innovation is a mental
process since the information is known and can be willingly accepted or rejected[8].
The study was conducted based on the assumption that farmers are still adopting the KUB chicken
technology package. Dissemination of technology through farmer groups is an effective way to
implement innovation. Therefore, farmer groups are expected to increase technology adoption and
innovation as an influencing variable [9]. The study results [10] stated that the weight of male KUB
chickens at the age of 1 week ranged from 34-63 g/head and will reach 487-1198 g/head, with an average
of 830.55 g at the age of 10 weeks. The results of an applied study in West Java reported that KUB
chickens can reach a bodyweight of 1.2-1.6 kg at the age of 70-90 days. After seven months of rearing
250 chickens, 636 eggs were produced, while the maintenance for ten weeks resulted in average weight
of 817 g/head [11]. Commercial feed had a significant effect on the bodyweight of KUB at 5, 8, and 11
weeks of age [12]. The highest increase in body weight was at the age of 6 weeks, mortality was 10-
13% at the age of 0-4 weeks, and 5% at the age above five weeks. The weight achieved by KUB chickens
with commercial feed at 70 days was 1.031±84 g.
The development of household-scale KUB chickens in Banten in 2018 showed that household waste
can supply animal feed. It increases nutritional adequacy, reduces household expenses, and hopes that
KUB chickens' development will be preserved [11]. Market waste derived from organic waste can save
on costs for animal feed supply. Waste from the market, mostly from vegetable and fruit waste used as
animal feed, is 48.3% [13]. The proximate analysis result shows that vegetable waste from traditional
markets has a crude protein and natural fibre content of 12.6423.50% and 20.76 29.18%. Market
vegetable waste included cabbage, caisim, cauliflower leaves, bean sprout skins, spinach, cabbage, corn
husks, kale leaves, cassava leaves, tomatoes, cucumbers, and chicory [14]. Vegetable waste is helpful
when the feed is obtained through processing. Zero waste is a concept that applies the 3 R (Reduce,
Reuse, Recycle) principles. The 3R concept is the basis to reduce and optimize waste production [15].
Central Java's community interest in developing KUB chicken is very high [11]. In 2019 KUB chickens
have spread to 33 of 35 cities, showing that they are in demand by the public and consumers even though
the availability of DOC is still limited. In developing KUB chickens based on farmer households in
Central Java, the Day Old Chick (DOC) assistance packages were provided, including box cages, feed,
vaccines, and other supporting medicines. Subseqsuently, technical guidance includes housing,
maintenance, feed, health, and institutional management before the farmer households receive the aid
package. To ensure the success of KUB chickens, the development, escort, and assistance of the
Assessment Institute for Agricultural Technology (AIAT) Balitbangtan Central Java should be
continually conducted. Moreover, disease prevention efforts are carried out by utilizing livestock herbs,
ND vaccinations, and biosecurity. The application of correct feed technology, disease prevention, and
strengthening product marketing networks are strategies to develop KUB chickens in South Kalimantan
to provide new jobs and increase farmers' income [16].
Dissemination is directed at accelerating the utilization of the study results [ 1 7 ] . Innovation is
defined as an idea, practice, or object considered or perceived as new by an individual or group.
Expressions are considered or felt with an idea, practice, or object; therefore, everything depends on
how the individual or group feels [9]. Acceptance or rejection of innovation is a decision made by

a person or individual in accepting an innovation. Adoption is a mental process or behavior change, both
in the form of knowledge (cognitive), attitude (affective), and skills (psychomotor) in a person since he
knows the innovation until he decides to adopt it [18]. The adoption process occurs when a person hears a
new idea until he finally implements it (adopted) [19]. The recipient of the message that has the most
influence on accelerating the adoption of innovations is the characteristics of farmers or targets [ 20 ] .
Farmer characters influencing innovation adoption include age, gender, education, income, social status
[21]. Based on the background, it is necessary to conduct a study related to KUB chicken technology
innovations carried out by farmers in the Farmers Group, Cereme Taba Village, Lubuk Linggau City.
This study aimed to assess the effect of five characteristics of KUB chicken innovation on farmers' perceptions
of developing KUB chickens in Cereme Taba village, Lubuk Linggau City, including relative advantage and
compatibility complexity, trialability, and observability.
2. Materials and methods
The study location in Lubuk Linggau City consists of four farmer groups in Cereme Village. The
determination was taken purposively based on the consideration that Lubuk Linggau City was used to
develop KUB chickens on a household scale. The study method used descriptive quantitative analysis by
analyzing the independent and dependent variables' causal relationship. The variables studied were the
innovation characteristics and farmers' perception, measured by a mathematical model using the score
category of each variable and the SIM (Successive Interval Method) program. The study involved 95
members of the farmer group as respondents.
The study instrument was a questionnaire that has been tested for validity and reliability. The
questionnaire is composed of several questions and answers in a secure manner using a Likert scale. The
variables used to measure respondents' perceptions include the following: including relative advantages,
compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability. Furthermore, the data that has been
transformed into an interval scale were categorized, and the score achievement was analyzed as follows:

3. Results and discussion
3.1. Characteristics of farmers
The farmer's age is 45.67±11.62 years; therefore, they belong to the productive age, which strongly
correlates with innovation adoption. It is simpler to absorb and use novel ideas in several aspects of life
at a productive age, most notably in meeting economic needs [8]. Additionally, productive age affects
one's physical ability to function optimally. The increasing age in the productive phase causes farmers
to increase production by being more willing to take risks, but with increasing age, farming efficiency
decreases [22].
The majority of respondents' formal education degrees were 10-12 years old. This indicates that the
average education level was high school (SMA). Table 1 shows that the formal education level of the
respondents is in the high category of 41.05%. Therefore, the farmer's resources were high, affecting
the ability to respond and implement innovation. Furthermore, the higher level of education, the more
rational the mindset and reasoning power, and it will be easier to change attitudes and behavior to be

more rational. Therefore, breeders who accept an innovation will undoubtedly be faster because of the
broader mindset [8].

The average farmer's income is IDR. 1 million - 2.5 million every month (78.95%). This implies that
the income level was classified as moderate. This situation promotes farmers to add side jobs to increase
income. The income level will affect the farmer's decision to run the farm and affect the attitude in taking
risks [8].
The highest percentage of family members was 65.26%, ranging from 3-5 people in one family. The
number of family members affects the economic condition of the farmer. The more family members, the
greater the need, and this affects farmers in taking the risk of developing a livestock business. However,
the number was also the working capital in the family, which can help in the implementation of farming
[23].
Most of the respondents' types of livelihood are self-employed, workers and breeders. Entrepreneurs
and workers make up most of the respondents' main occupations, while farmers rank third. This was
related to the area of their home yard, which is relatively narrow; therefore, it is not possible to carry
out a livestock business on a larger scale.
3.2 Farmers' perception in KUB chicken development
The farmer's perception of the relative advantage in the development of KUB chickens was 67% or is
included in the agree category (Table 3). Therefore, farmers agree that benefits will be obtained when
KUB chickens are developed, especially from the economic side. This is because KUB chickens are easy
to market, have competitive prices, and increase household income. According to Rusdiana and
Soeharsono [24], a superior local chicken business with good professional management can increase the
economic value of farmers more optimally. Additionally, small farmers in rural areas can continue to
cultivate village chicken business, even though the scale of maintenance is still low. From the
information of group members, feces from KUB chickens were used as manure for ornamental plants in

The farmer's perception of the compatibility variable in the development of KUB chickens was 67%
included in the agree category (Table 4). Therefore, the KUB chicken development technology package
follows the maintenance pattern as recommended. This is achieved by not leaving the original nature
and character of the KUB chicken as free-range. From the results of [25], intensively reared KUB
chickens showed normal behavior with the three highest activities in the morning, including eating
(10%), drinking (9.9%), and perching (9.2%). Therefore, it is recommended that the KUB chicken coop
be given a perch. Carcass characteristics, the breast of KUB chicken has high protein and fat content
compared to free-range, male, and purebred chickens, pale meat color, savory taste value (lower than
native chicken), and moderate tenderness [4]. Feed management and rearing can affect meat's nutritional
quality and physical properties. KUB chickens kept in cages showed more tender meat than ordinary
free-range exposed. Furthermore, the research results revealed that the forage provided by farmer groups
as an addition to KUB chicken comes from market waste as vegetable waste is freely collected. The
dominant type of vegetable selected is cabbage because it is not easily rotten compared to others..

The farmer's perception of the complex variable in maintaining KUB chickens was 72% or had an
agreeable category (Table 5). This means that respondents agree that the KUB chicken development
technology package requires good management, including equipment and infrastructure, KUB chicken
maintenance, biosecurity and disease prevention, and livestock health. These items are needed to
increase the results obtained as supported by the opinion of [16] that the strategy implemented in the
effort to develop KUB chickens in South Kalimantan prevents disease by utilizing livestock herbal
medicine, ND vaccination, and biosecurity. These include applying correct feed technology, preventing
disease, and strengthening product marketing networks to provide new jobs and increase farmers'
income.
The farmer's perception of the variable that can be tested (trialability) from KUB chickens was 68%
or had an agree category (Table 6). Therefore, respondents agree that the KUB chicken technology
package can be tested on other breeders with easy maintenance and livestock health facilities.

development of KUB chickens in Lubuk Linggau city. Furthermore, the development also positively
impacted the reduction of vegetable waste in the market because it can be used as an additional animal
feed. This indicates KUB chicken farmers in this region implemented the 3R principle (Reduce, Reuse,
Recycle) and zero-waste concept.

This study aims to determine the hatching performance of Kokok Balenggek chicken (KBC) using different males as the formation of superior local meat-type chickens. The study used an experimental method, randomized block design (RBD), with eight treatments and three groups. The treatment was male KBC (G0) and the group was the hatching period. Chickens are mated using Artificial Insemination (AI) with a sex ratio of 1:5. A total of 594 KBC egg were selected. The variables of this study consisted of fertility rate (FR%), embryonic mortality (EM%), hatchability of fertile egg (HRF%), and day-old chick (DOC) viability. Data were analyzed using Minitab version 19. The results of the study showed that individual differences in males had non-significant (P>0.05) effect on FR, EM, HRF and DOC viability. The average FR was (73.38%), EM (30.96%), HRF (69.04%) and DOC viability (90.73%). The macroscopic examination of KBC-G0 semen indicated volume as 0.31±0.11mL, consistency to be thick creamy with a milky white color and pH as 7.35±0.17. The microscopic examination of KBC-G0 semen indicated average ++ mass movement and sperm motility, viability and abnormality of spermatozoa to be 71.25±8.35, 78.34±6.22 and 11.67±2.90%, respectively whereas concentration of spermatozoa was 210.46±43.68 x 10 7 sperm/mL spermatozoa. In conclusion, the eight males KBC have the same and good hatching performance so can be used as males to produce KBC (G1) in the formation of superior local meat type chickens.
... While another parental group, Murung Panggang chicken, originating in South Kalimantan, were primarily dark or black in color, mature at 5 months, and can weigh up to 4 kg (Suryana, 2014;Mustofa et al., 2021). Meanwhile, the selective range chicken known as Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) had a high egg production rate and is often used as dual purposes chicken both for meat and egg (Rubianti et al., 2021;Masito et al., 2022).

The uniformity of live weight in the early stage (DOC) is an indicator applied to evaluate the quality of brooding, raising, and growth management. This study aims to compare the live weight uniformity of DOC in three local breeds as a parental group, namely Merawang A and B (n:196), Murung Panggang (n:157), and KUB (n:416), as well as in five groups of Bulaksumur (BS) for crossbred group, namely BS-1 (n:136), BS-2 (n:76), BS-3 (n:106), BS-5 (n:81), BS-6 (n:164). The live weight data of DOC was obtained in Gunungkidul Regency under similar management. The results show that the BS groups had higher live weight (31.9 g ± 3.1) compared to Merawang A (24 g ± 3.1), Murung Panggang (28.2 g ± 2.3), and KUB (28.1 g ± 2.8). Furthermore, the live weight uniformity on the BS DOC averaged 71% across all groups, with the highest uniformity being BS-3 (87%). Murung Panggang had a higher live weight uniformity (82%) compared to Merawang A and B (42%, 64%) and KUB (63%). The average coefficient variance was less than 10%, except for Merawang A and BS-2 with 13.09% and 11.35%, respectively. In conclusion, the DOC of the crossbred (BS) was more uniform than its parental groups. However, to distinguish the significantly different in the chicken live weight in early stage, further analysis needs to be conducted in the future.

Beef cattle farmers were interviewed about what “sustainability” means to them with regard to their daily practices, both in their daily working life and after being confronted with the results of an assessment conducted on their farms prior to a focus group discussion (FGD) utilizing the Sustainability Assessment of Food and Agriculture (SAFA) system developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. The study presented in this article was based on two FGDs, using the results of the SAFA online assessment as a tool to initiate and facilitate the discussions. The two group discussions were recorded using a digital voice recorder, transcribed in full and then coded using the software program Transana. The discussions were organized into themes, which allowed a basis for the further analysis. The themes allowed us to build a picture of the participants’ views and thoughts on sustainability with regard to their farming management practices in the light of the SAFA framework, and their own thoughts and perception of the government’s action to promote sustainability, as well as to consider its implications for the futures of their own farms. The interviewed beef cattle farmers thought of sustainability on a day-to-day context rather than as a multi-dimensional concept. In their views, sustainability was very much about being able to continue farming, for the farm to survive and about being able to hand it over to the next generation. However, when presented with the four dimensions of the SAFA framework, they acknowledged the wider perspectives and different aspects of sustainability and reflected about how their own agricultural practices related to these wider aspects too.

Abstrak Kabupaten Kendal merupakan salah satu sentra produksi jagung di Provinsi Jawa Tengah dengan produktivitas yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan produktivitas provinsi. Produktivitas tersebut diperoleh petani melalui penggunaan input produksi secara efisien. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui keragaan teknologi usahatani jagung, mengetahui efisiensi dan sumber inefisiensi serta penyebaran efisiensi berdasarkan sumber-sumber inefisiensi. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Desa Wirosari, Kecamatan Patean, Kabupaten Kendal pada bulan Agustus – November 2018. Penelitian menggunakan data primer yang diperoleh melalui metode survey pada 30 petani responden. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan fungsi produksi stochastic frontier. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa efisiensi teknis usahatani jagung masih rendah dengan rata-rata 0,57. Rendahnya efisiensi ini disebabkan oleh umur dan pendidikan petani, serta pengalaman usahatani. Dengan bertambahnya pengalaman usahatani, umur petani semakin bertambah sehingga efisiensi semakin berkurang karena kemampuan fisik petani semakin berkurang. Disamping dua faktor tersebut, pendidikan yang tinggi justru menjadi penyebab terjadinya inefisiensi usahatani. Oleh karena itu untuk meningkatkan efisiensi usahatani perlu upaya untuk meningkatkan daya tarik di sektor pertanian, antara lain berupa fasilitasi teknologi digital hingga ke pedesaan dan program pertukaran pemuda tani. kata kunci: efisiensi, jagung, sumber inefisiensi, sector pertanian Abstract Kendal District is one of the maize production centers in Central Java Province with higher productivity than provincial productivity. These productivity is obtained by farmers by using production inputs efficiently. This study aimed to determine the performance of maize farming technology, to know the efficiency and sources of inefficiency, and to spread efficiency based on sources of inefficiency. The study was conducted in Wirosari Village, Patean Subdistrict, Kendal District in August – November 2019. Primary data was collected through survey method by interviewing 30 respondents. The data was analyzed by the stochastic frontier production function. The results showed that the technical efficiency of maize farming was still low which was 0.57. The low efficiency was caused by the age, education, and of farming experience of farmer. With the increase in farming experience, the age of farmers is increasing so that efficiency decreases because farmers' physical abilities diminish. Therefore, to improve farming efficiency, efforts need to be made to increase attractiveness in the agricultural sector, including facilitation of digital technology to the countryside and youth farmer exchange programs. keywords: efficiency, maize, inefficiency sources, agricultural sector

Ayam kampung adalah salah satu ternak yang dipelihara oleh masyarakat desa secara umum karena sistem pemeliharaan tidak terlalu memerlukan input yang besar seperti ayam ras, memiliki kemampuan adaptasi lingkungan yang baik sehingga banyak dipelihara masyarakat pedesaan di Indonesia. Bahkan dibeberapa tempat di pedesaan sistem pemeliharaanya zero input. Informasi tentang tingkah laku ayam KUB yang dipelihara secara intensif dalam kandang maupun secara bebas masih sangat minim, sehingga diperlukan sebuah kajian tentang tingkah laku ayam KUB agar dapat berproduksi maksimal. Tingkah laku dapat merepresentasikan kondisi fisiologis, perasaan serta respon unggas terhadap perubahan kondisi lingkungan sekitarnya. Kajian ini dilaksanakan di salah satu lokasi diseminasi pengembangan Ayam KUB di Kabupaten Sigi, Provinsi Sulawesi Tengah. Kajian menggunakan metode one zero sampling , pengamatan dilakukan pagi hari (07.00-08.00 WITA) dan sore (16.00-17.00 WITA) selama 7 hari. Populasi ayam KUB yang digunakan dalam kajian ini sebanyak 5 ekor Jantan dan 25 ekor Betina berumur 18 minggu. Hasil pengamatan menunjukkan aktivitas tertinggi pada pagi hari berturut-turut adalah; aktivitas makan (10%), minum (9,9%), bertengger (9,2%), groming (9,2%) lokomosi (7,8%), agonistik (1,7%), kawin (1,4%), eliminasi (1,1) dan istirahat (1,1%), sedangkan aktivitas tertinggi pada sore hari adalah makan (11,8%), minum (9,9%), grooming (8,6%), lokomosi (7,8%), bertengger (7,0%), agonistik (1,3%), eliminasi (0,8%), istirahat (0,8%) dan kawin (0,6%). Disimpulkan bahwa tingkah laku ayam KUB umur 18 minggu secara keseluruhan masih dalam batas normal demi memenuhi tingkat kesejahterannya untuk persiapan berproduksi secara maksimal.
