Lemu Sedoyo Integrated Sheep Farm

Abstract

Head of the livestock and animal health sector of Bantul Regency, Joko Waluyo said that in one day, it takes 750 sheep to fulfill the needs of the culinary sector so that the stock of sheep in Bantul district is running low. Seeing the existing phenomenon, the author made it a good business potential, so in early 2020 Lemu Sedoyo Integrated Farming was established as a sheep farm which focuses on fattening sheep by buying lambs and then quarantined to be fattened in approximately 3 months and then resold. As a business entity in the field of sheep farming, Lemu Sedoyo Integrated Farm raises sheep and reaps the benefits from the buying and selling the sheep produced by these breeders and explores other potential profits from the livestock. In the first semester the author runs this business in two ways, the first is by fattening in the author's personal pen by paying an employee to take good care of the sheep and the second is distributing 5 residents each 2 sheep to be cared for and bred with the profit sharing system. At the end of the period in the first semester, there is no significant growth from the sheep treated so that it has an impact on losses in the first sale. Even so, seeing that the business development is still far from the author's expectations, an evaluation really needs to be done by the author before expanding this business.
