INTRODUCTION

2

Indonesia is the world

biggest palm oil producing

country (>8 million ha)

Province of Riau is the

largest area of plantation

Palm oil plantation has

been criticizing for not

environmentally farming

system => global warming

Highly dependent on the

chemical fertilizer that

may in long term harmful

to the environment

3

More friendly farming system to support

sustainable palm oil plantation, while

reducing the cost of production, would

be the challenge in the future !

INTRODUCTION OF LIVESTOCK FARMING

UNDER PALM TREES WOULD BE ONE OF

THE SOLUTIONS

5

LIVESTOCK GRAZING UNDER PALM TREES

Farmers generally use herbicide to kill or clean the grass

6

CATTLE CAN BE USED FOR

WORK/TRANSPORT

KNOWLEDGE AND TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER ON

LIVESTOCK FARMING FOR SUSTAINABLE PALM

OIL PLANTATION WAS DONE IN ‘KUD TUNAS

MUDA’ DAYUN-SIAK-RIAU SUMATERA

1. Liquid Organic Fertilizer (LOF)

2. Feed technology based on palm

trees by products (leaf and palm

kernel cake)

3. Biogas development

4. Livestock management

INTRODUCTION OF APPLIED

TECHOLOGY : EASY - CHEAP

METHODS :

9

TRAINING – STUDY TOUR - DIRECT COACHING REGULARLY

30 farmers member of KUD ‘Tunas Muda ‘ were trained & Study tour to UGM

10

PALM’s LEAF

AS LIVESTOCK FEED

FEED TECHNOLOGY BASED ON

PALM TREES BY PRODUCTS

12

MOLASES

MULTI MICROBES

LIQUID ORGANIC FERTILIZER (LOF)

14

COLLECTION OF URINE / LIQUIID MANURE

PREPARATION AND FERMENTATION

OF LIQUID ORGANIC FERTILIZER

16

Famer produce LOF 750 – 3000 liter / month

17

18

BIOGAS DEVELOPMENT :

Energy for electricity, cooking and chopper

RESULTS & CONCLUSION :

After 2 years of training and direct coaching :

- 19 Farmers (63%) adopted the LOF technology

based on cattle manure

- Beef cattle population increased two times (from

200 to 400 head)

- Production cost (chemical fertilizer) reduce 50-

60% after replaced by LOF

- Farmers get additional income 55.000-170.000

yen/month

- Palm oil trees productivities improved
