Abstract

Siompu goat is one of local breeds that are bred and kept well in Siompu Island, Southeast Sulawesi. Siompu goat farming has contributed to the local economic and social development. This study aimed to explore the typology and production characteristics of Siompu goat farms. The study was conducted at 38.62 km2 areas of Siompu District, Siompu Island, Buton Selatan regency, Southeast Sulawesi using purposive sampling method. The selection of interviewees was conducted by purposive and snowball sampling methods. Survey by questionnaires was done to 37 Siompu goat farmers. The data collected were categorized into 7 groups: age and farming experience length; educational background; workers; social profile; purpose of goat farming and financial support; farming system and pen management; and feed and grazing management. The data collected were analysed descriptively by calculating the percentage of each variable. Results of the study show that the typology of Siompu goat farms is traditionally managed; small-holding farming system and the management system based on habits from generation to generation. The results also show low educational background of farmers, the absence of bank investment, the absence of farmers’ organization, and the lack of training for improving the farmers’ skills. The production system is dominated by semi-intensive system (48.65%), followed by intensive system (43.24%), and extensive system (8.11%). The average number of goats per farmer is 11 heads and there is low technology application either on pen system or feeding.
