Indonesian Goverments Target to be Beef Self sufficient in 2014

We realize that livestock sector has important role on whole of our life and it can give good effect for human recources development in Indonesia. We know that livestock sector, if can seen on nutrition aspect that provide protein and another chemical compound which good for our body. So thats why to be beef self sufficient in 2014 is very important. Talking about beef self sufficient, on 2005 President of Indonesia SBY has made policy to launched beef self sufficient. But there were some problem on it so that the implementation that due on 2010 but now it change to be 2014.

           There are some factors that become as obstacle is cattle population itself and the second problem is the unavailability of a national breeding center. To be Indonesian Beef Self Sufficient, the livestock product particularly meat 90% should be derived by local product and for the rest is 10%. Based on departement of agriculture in 2009, the amount of cattle was 12,9 milyon and the goverment expect in 2014 that the amount of it can reach to 15,5 milyon. It can be reach for national meat necessary (90%). Take a look on national breeding center. National breeding center has aim to increase the cattle population. And also national breeding center should be provide many productive cows. So it can conclude that national breeding center will keep stability cattle population.

                Based on that bellow things, so that the goverment make some policies to implement and do beef self sufficient in 2014. First, to reach beef self sufficient in 2014 must be require good cow. But in out there, it was found that some cow have slaughtered, infact the slaguter processing on cow didnt do on slaughter house. These complex things can distract beef self sufficient in 2014, in the other hand, it is can make cow population become less. The goverment should be make some regulations to decrease slaughter processing on productive cow and keep watch, monitoring that slaughter processing should be do on slaughter house particularly on productive cow. Second, another important things that give big affect for beef self sufficient are feed, breed, and maintaning. To actualize these things, its required the expert one. The role of agriculture departement and educational institutions by university is really important so that it can increase the productivity.

                Beef self sufficient undirectly able to influence the economic sector in Indonesia. We know that the goverment always make policy to buy imported cattle so that it could be say waste thing. Based on Sihombing DPR committe, Indonesia as the biggest imported cattle in the world. The goverment must be exploit local livestock. Based on the blue print its written that beed self sufficient directly can save foreign exchange, at the same time also can create job which can influence the breeder welfare and economic activity.
