Journal Title: International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Analysis - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 08
Abstract
Timor Deer (Cervus timorensis) is a rare species of deer that is threatened with extinction. In order to maintain the sustainability of this species, effective conservation measures are necessary. One important aspect of Timor deer conservation is ensuring adequate feed supply in the captive environment. Silage feed has been identified as a potential alternative feed due to its availability and high nutritional value. This research aims to evaluate the effect of silage feed on the conservation of Timor deer and the community empowerment group of Timor deer breeders (Mammettang) in Cakura Village. The research methods used include collecting primary data through direct observation, measuring deer growth, and analyzing the quality of silage feed. Secondary data were also collected from previous studies and official documentation related to Timor deer conservation. The results of the research indicate that the use of silage feed in the captive environment for Timor deer in Cakura Village has a positive impact on the health and growth of the deer. Deer fed with silage showed a significant increase in body weight compared to those fed with conventional feed. Moreover, the quality of silage feed was proven to meet the nutritional requirements of Timor deer, with appropriate levels of crude fiber, protein, and energy. These findings have significant implications for Timor deer conservation efforts and community empowerment in Cakura Village. The use of silage feed can improve feed efficiency, reduce dependency on conventional feed, and provide a more economical and sustainable alternative. Additionally, community involvement in Timor deer breeding can bring about significant social and economic benefits, including increased income and preservation of local culture. In conclusion, the use of silage feed in Timor deer conservation in Cakura Village has a positive impact on the health and growth of the deer. This opens opportunities for further development in implementing silage feed as an effective and sustainable conservation strategy for Timor deer species. Furthermore, community empowerment in Timor deer breeding also provides sustainable social and economic benefits for the local community.
