Abstract

One of important factors in improving the production of ruminants is the availability of qualified green fodder throughout the year. The qualified green fodder mainly consists of grass as the source of energy, and legume as the source of protein. In Indonesia, especially in Bali, the livestocks’ farmers still utilize grasses from field as their livestocks’ fodder, due to the lack of special lands to plant grasses. Therefore, an intercropping between grass and legume is considered to be necessary. Furthermore, fertilization is also considered to be significant to produce an optimum production. Fertilization that could be implemented by farmers without any additional cost is by using Compost and Biourine.
