Abstract

Ahmad Tito Ghassani. Evaluasi Kenyamanan Dan Manajemen Perkandangan Sapi Perah Laktasi Pada Dua Peternakan Di Cisarua Bogor. Dibimbing oleh Ahmad Yani dan Iyep Komala. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis Temperature Humidity Index (THI) serta mengevaluasi penerapan Good Dairy Farming Practices (GDFP) pada aspek bangunan dan perkandangan sapi perah laktasi di KUD Giri Tani dan Erif Farm, Cisarua, Bogor. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada Februari–Maret 2025 menggunakan metode observasi dan pengukuran langsung terhadap kondisi lingkungan kandang. Data yang dikumpulkan meliputi suhu, kelembapan, kecepatan angin, serta aspek bangunan dan perkandangan yang dievaluasi berdasarkan pedoman GDFP. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai rata-rata THI di KUD Giri Tani sebesar 75,64 yang termasuk kategori heat stress ringan, sedangkan Erif Farm memiliki nilai THI sebesar 70,17 yang berada pada kisaran nyaman bagi sapi perah. Skor penerapan GDFP pada aspek bangunan dan perkandangan di Erif Farm sebesar 2,83, lebih tinggi dibandingkan KUD Giri Tani sebesar 2,27. Kondisi bangunan dan perkandangan yang lebih sesuai dengan prinsip GDFP terindikasi berkaitan dengan nilai THI yang lebih rendah dan lingkungan kandang yang lebih nyaman bagi sapi perah laktasi.

Ahmad Tito Ghassani. Evaluation of Housing Comfort and Housing Management Practices for Lactating Dairy Cattle at Two Dairy Farms in Cisarua, Bogor. Supervised by Ahmad Yani and Iyep Komala. This study aimed to analyze the Temperature Humidity Index (THI) and evaluate the implementation of Good Dairy Farming Practices (GDFP) in dairy housing for lactating dairy cows at KUD Giri Tani and Erif Farm, Cisarua, Bogor. The study was conducted from February to March 2025 using observational methods and direct measurements of housing environmental conditions. Data collected included temperature, humidity, wind speed, and housing characteristics evaluated based on GDFP guidelines. The results showed that the average THI at KUD Giri Tani was 75.64, categorized as mild heat stress, while Erif Farm had an average THI of 70.17, which was within the comfort range for dairy cows. The GDFP score for housing aspects at Erif Farm was 2.83, higher than that of KUD Giri Tani at 2.27. Housing conditions that were more consistent with GDFP principles were associated with lower THI values and a more comfortable environment for lactating dairy cows.
