ABSTRACT

This study aims to determine the effect of ground transportation on body
weight decrease in Simmental cross and Limousin cross cattle. Data were
collected individually from 60 Simmental cross and Limousin cross cattle with
343.25+24,51 kg in average body weight The design was using completely
randomized design with a factorial with 2 factors, namrly (1) the times
transportation (5 - 6 hours and 7 – 8 hours), (2) the cattle breed Simmental cross
and Limousin cross cattle. Each treatment using 30 individuals. The variables
measured were body weight decrease percentage. Data collected was analyzed

using analysis of variance (ANOVA) which was folllowed by the Least
Significant Difference test (LSD) for any significant result. The research result
showed that a long time transport has higly significant effect on body weight
decrease (P
