  Bali cattle is an indigenous cattle in Indonesia, have a good adaptation capability to hazard condition and very popular with their high fertility. This research was conduct to find out the calving interval (CI) in Istalasi Populasi Dasar (IPD), which is village breeding centres owner by the group of farmers compare to in Pusat Pembibitan Ternak Unggul (BPTU) Sapi

  

Bali, the government breeding centre in Bali Island. Using recording of 136 cows at the IPD

  and 86 cows at the BPTU Bali cattle were calculated the calving date to the next calving in 2009 to 2011. The result showed that CI cows at the IPD (13.7±1.7 months) tend to longer than at the BPTU Bali cattle (12.0±0.3 months). Because of the different management system, the calving interval at the Istalasi Populasi Dasar have longer calving interval compare to at the Pusat Pembibitan Ternak Unggul Bali Cattle.

INTRODUCTION

  The time interval between one parturition and the next is called the calving interval (Hinojosa et al., 1980). Calving interval is the most important character in productivity of beef cattle and is the best index for evaluating the reproductive of a herd under field condition. Factors influencing calving interval are genetic and environment; genetic factor is permanent while environment factors can be manipulated including feeding and management. Bali cattle is indigenous cattle, domesticated from Bos sondaicus centuries ago. Superiorities of Bali cattle are good adaptation capability to the harsd environment, high fertility rate and high carcass percentage. Based on these superiorities, Bali cattle serve as a national asset which can be very potential for development cattle production in Indonesia.

  Balai Pembibitan Ternak Unggul (BPTU) Sapi Bali is a breeding centre for bali cattle located in Bali Island. The purpose of BPTU is to increase the genetic quality of Bali cattle which will be followed by an increase in its productivity. This cattle breeding centre established on February 19, 2007 previciously called Proyek Pembibitan dan Pengembangan Sapi Bali (P3Bali) established in 1986.

  26-30 November 2012, Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, Thailand

  BPTU Bali cattle consist of two important part which are Instalasi Populasi Dasar (IPD) and Breeding Centre in Pulukan. Instalasi Populasi Dasar was a village breeding centre (VBC) own by the farmers and the first location of selection. For that purpose, BPTU carry out mentoring such as counceling, cattle health examination, drug administration, pregnancy detection, etc. The performance of all cattle are recorded and identified; 10 % of the best will be selected and brought to the BPTU for futher testing. BPTU have ten village breeding centers (VBC), and almost all off the cows there have better genetic quality. Based on evaluation and analysis, every year some cows would be replace by the better ones.

  BPTU and IPD has a very important rule in the breeding of Bali cattle. However there are differencies in the owner, the breeding management, feeding, daily management, etc.

  The objectives of the study were to compare the length of the calving interval and the breeding management of cows in BPTU and in IPD.

MATERIAL AND METODS

  The information used in the present study was taken from the reproductive record from 136 Bali cows in IPD and 88 Bali cows in BPTU, Jembrana, Bali, starting from 2009 to 2011. There are three VBCs in IPD which were chosen as location of the present study. Parameters observed in IPD were farmer profile, daily management, and reproduction parameters. Farmer profile including age, education, main occupation and the length of experience in raising cattle. Reproduction parameters data including capability the farmers to detect estrus, post partum estrus, service per conception, post partum mating, days open, and calving interval.

  Data analysis

  Percentage and standard deviation of farmer profile and daily management were analysed; calving interval of the cows between the two location of study (in IPD and in BPTU) were compare using independent simple t test. Data analysis were done using SPSS 16.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION

  Farmer profile in IPD consist of age, length of experience in raising cattle, number of cattle owner, main occupation and farmer education (Table 1)

  Daily Management In IPD, 68.42% farmers raised the cows remained in the pen, and 31.57 % in the grassland.

  Cows in the grassland, usually start in the morning to afternoon for 2 to 8 hours but some up to 24 hours. Cows in BPTU were raised in the rotation paddock system, for every 30 cows

  26-30 November 2012, Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, Thailand Feeding management

  The main feeding of cattle in IPD was forage. Forage consist of native grasses, rice straw, casssava leaf, bamboos leaf, banana leaf, gamal leaf, lamtoro leaf, jackfruit leaf, etc. taken from their own land and neighbour. Forage were given twice a day, 19.4% in IPD only give ones a day. Based on observation forage was given 15 to 20 kg/cow/d. About 42% of farmers mentioned that season was become a limitation for feeding supply, it was mean that sometime the feed supply was limited. Beside forages, 50% of the farmers in IPD gave concentrate for their cows, which was rice brand, was given only ones in a day, around 1 kg/h/d. In BPTU, cows were raised in the paddock with well managed grassland; concentrates gived routine, around 3 kg/h/d.

  Mating management

  In IPD, the farmers used both artificial insemination (75,6%) and natural mating (24,4%). The Government provided (free charge) the semen and the inseminator for that purposed; for natural mating, the cost was Rp 30.000 to Rp 50.000/mating with the bull ownwer by the farmer group. In BPTU, almost all cows by natural mating in restricted three months breeding season. In these periods, every 30 cows exposed with a selected bull, so we adjusted the fertile cows would be mated by the bull. After breeding period, all cows would diagnosed for pregnancy by rectal palpated. The cows that were not pregnant, should out from the herd, so only pregnant cows remained in the flock.

  Calving interval

  Calving interval of 136 cows in IPD was 13.70 ± 1,66 months or 411 days. The shorthest interval was 11,00 months or 330 days, and the longest was 18.23 months or 547 days. Calving interval of 88 cows in BPTU in 2009 to 2011 was 11.97 ± 0.27 months or 359 days, the shortest interval were 11.10 bln or 333 days and the longest was 12.50 months or 375 days. Statisticall analysis showed that there was significantly different (P<0.05) calving interval between the two locations of study.

  The possible explantion for the differencies were the better genetic quality, age of the cows, feeding management, and breeding management in BPTU compare to IPD. Effect of age of the Dam. Many reported found that age of the dam significantly influence calving interval, i.e. from Hinojosa et al. (1980) studied, they found that there was a significant effect (P<0.01) of age of dam on calving interval; calving interval decreased until the cows reached six to seven years of age. The calving interval was longer for young cows due to the delay in onset of oestrus after calving in lactating heifers (Warnick, 1963 cit Hinojosa et al., 1980) and may be caused by the stress of lactation, which is greater in heifers than in olders cows. Calving interval in IPD longer could be due to some of the cows too old; some cows were culled more than nine parities (Table 2), was around 12 year old. In BPTU culling age was after five to seven parities, or around seven to nine year old. After nine year old, lengthening of the calving interval coincides with teeth problems, increased incidence of joint injuries and general aging (Smith, 1962 cit Hinojosa et al., 1980).

  Effect of season. There was a significant effect (P<0.01) of season on calving interval (Doren et. al., 1986). Cows reared in the pasture had the best calving interval when they calved

  26-30 November 2012, Thammasat University, Rangsit Campus, Thailand

  so these date of calving become the best time where the production system will generally have annual peaks of optimal condition for production. Calving date of the cows in IPD was not managed yet. Effect of nutrient. Not all the famers in IPD gave concentrates for they cows (Table 2), wheres nutrient was one of the factor that influence calving interval.

  Effect of weaning weight of the calf. Doren et al. 1986 reported that selection for higher weaning weights caused calving interval in a grazing-based production system may be increased. From his studied, he found that every kilogram increase in weaning weight caused five days increase in conception post partum, it mean made calving interval longer too. Whether the variation due to weaning weight is a result of lactation or other physical or physiological influences has not been clearly determined. But in contrast, Mac.Gregor and Casey. (2000) reported a decrease of 0.29±0.01 kg for weaning weight resulted a one day increase in calving interval. The same result reported by Osoro and Wright (1992). In the present study, we not yet counted the effect of weaning weight of the calves either in

  IPD or in BPTU. May be these was one of the factos that also influence the longer of calving interval in IPD.

  Effect of body condition of the dam. Osoro and Wright (1992) founded that body condition at calving were the most significant animal factors affecting reproductive performance. Cows calving in higher body condition had shorter (P<0.001) calving interval. In BPTU, all cows received forage and concentrates continuesly, the body condition of the dam must be better than cows in IPD. Effect of bull exposure. Exposing primiparous and multiparous cows to the close physical contact (Custer et al., 1990; Zalesky et al., 1984 cit Tauck, 2009) or fence-line contact (Fike et al., 1996; Berardinelli and Tauck , 2007, cit Tauck, 2009) with bulls accelerates resumption of ovulatory activity (OA). This effect termed the “bios-timulatory effect of bulls”, is mediated by pheromones secreted into the environment via excretory products of bulls (Berardinelli and Joshi, 2005 cit Tauck, 2009). In BPTU all cows closed to the bull everyday, so possibility to accelerate the ovarium activity was higher, due to reduced calving interval. There were reported, calving interval of Bali cattle in the farmer management system raised in the natural grassland was 14 months (Gunawan et al., 1998), 12,19 ± 0,06 months (Tanari, 1999), 12,39 ± 1,61 months (Jan, 2000), 15,64 ± 1,80 months (Aminudin, 2005), 12,43 ± 0,86 months (Sulistia, 2007), 17,03 ± 1,82 months (Tonbesi, 2008) or 15,36 ± 5,17 months (Putra, 2008). From those data we could showed that there was variation of calving interval of Bali cattle caused by nonidentified factors.

  From the present study we founded that still many factors affected calving interval between the two location of research, indicated that environmental variation has a major influence on the variation the length of calving interval. So, eventhought calving interval of the cows in

  IPD longer than in BPTU, it was still better than in the others farmer level in general. In the future, the calving interval in IPD still can be improved by better management system.

  ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

  The authors wish to express the gratitude to the Director of BPTU Sapi Bali and all the farmers in IPD for giving the permission and having made possible the completion of this study.
