Abstract

Beef cattle farming was generally still maintained traditionally, farmers’ knowledge in this case was still conventional. Traditional maintenance system, by moving cattle from one agricultural land to another. Unprocessed manure causes environmental pollution. The problem was to what extent was the potential for organic fertilizer from beef cattle manure to support a sustainable integration system. The research method used was a survey in Minahasa Regency and a study of published data. The data collected were primary and secondary data. Respondents were 60 beef cattle farmers. The data analysis used was descriptive with an approach to the potential and feasibility of organic fertilizer production. The results of the study showed that the beef cattle population had increased, thus increasing the amount of manure from beef cattle. The beef cattle population in 2022 in Minahasa Regency, amounted to 76,770 heads, producing 26,381.83 tons of solid fertilizer. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that beef cattle farming had the potential to produce organic fertilizer, thus supporting a sustainable integration system.
