Abstract

Perubahan perilaku peternak dari individualis menjadi kolektif sebagai upaya pemberdayaan agar lebih berdaulat dan berdaya bersaing. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis tingkat motivasi berkelompok dan tingkat ketertarikan berkelompok ternak, serta mengetahui hubungan antara karakteristik peternak, motivasi berkelompok, dan tingkat ketertarikan berkelompok di Desa Cisarua, Kecamatan Nanggung. Metode survei dan wawancara melibatkan 45 orang responden (40 peternak individu, 5 peternak kelompok). Data dianalisis deskriptif dan uji korelasi rank Spearman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tingkat motivasi berkelompok tergolong sedang (1,69) pada peternak individu, tetapi tergolong tinggi (2,48) pada peternak kelompok. Motivasi berkelompok berkorelasi dengan pendapatan dan skala kepemilikan ternak. Tingkat ketertarikan berkelompok peternak individu tahap awareness tergolong rendah (1,39), tetapi pada tahap interest tergolong sedang (1,77). Tahap awareness berkorelasi dengan pendidikan, pendapatan, skala kepemilikan ternak, dan motivasi berdasarkan kebutuhan hubungan. Tahap interest tidak berkorelasi dengan karakteristik peternak, tetapi berkorelasi dengan motivasi berdasarkan kebutuhan pertumbuhan.
