description | The objectives of the study were (1) to evaluate the functions of farmers group in creating self-sustain of beef cattle farming activities, and (2) to analyze the influence of personal farmers’ characteristics on the effectiveness of farmers’ group functions. All of the member of Ngudi Barokah farmers’ group were selected as the respondents. Data were collected by interviewing the farmers directly using questionnaire. Descriptive and multiple linear regression analyses were used as a tool of data analyses. The results showed that the farmers’ group functions as a place of learning (85.70%), a production unit (76.20%), and a mean of cooperation (76.20%) were in the high categories, while the function as a business unit (57.10%) was still in low category. The number of beef cattle raised influenced positively the farmers’ group functions as a mean of cooperation (P<0.10) and a business unit (P<0.05). The effectiveness of the farmers’ group function as a place of learning was influenced positively by the economic motive (P<0.10) and the farmer experience in beef cattle farming (P<0.10). Economic motive also influenced positively (P<0.10) the farmers’ group function as a production unit. The conclusion was that the beef cattle farmers could be facilitated in a good situation for their learning, production, and cooperation processes in the farmers group, but not good yet for business. The number of beef cattle raised, economic motive, and the farmer experience in beef cattle farming, were important variables to improve the effectiveness of farmers group functions in creating self-sustain of beef cattle farming activities. |
