Pengelolaan Kesejahteraan dan Nilai Manfaat Ekonomi Rusa di Penangkaran Rusa Lembah Paniisan Subang

Abstract

Rusa timor (Cervus timorensis) dan rusa totol (Axis axis) termasuk spesies rusa yang dikembangbiakkan di Indonesia. Jumlah populasi rusa di alam semakin terancam akibat perusakan habitat dan perburuan liar sehingga perlu adanya upaya konservasi ex-situ, salah satunya yaitu Penangkaran Rusa Lembah Paniisan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan pengelolaan kesejahteraan dan menilai tingkat kesejahteraan rusa, menganalisis tingkat keberhasilan penangkaran, serta menghitung nilai manfaat ekonomi rusa dan dampak sosial ekonominya bagi masyarakat. Metode yang digunakan yaitu observasi lapang, wawancara, dan studi pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan kesejahteraan rusa tergolong sangat baik dengan capaian implementasi sebesar 85,10. Tingkat keberhasilan penangkaran tergolong ke dalam kategori tinggi. Nilai manfaat ekonomi rusa dihitung berdasarkan biaya pemeliharaan sebesar Rp5.650.196,08/ekor/tahun, berdasarkan harga pasar sebesar Rp28.800.000– Rp67.500.000/pasang. Nilai keuntungan usaha penangkaran untuk penjualan individu rusa tahun 2022 sebesar Rp45.903.529,41 dan tahun 2023 sebesar Rp61.204.705,88, serta keuntungan penjualan produk turunan rusa sebesar Rp50.900.000/tahun. Nilai manfaat ekonomi penangkaran bagi masyarakat yang terlibat sebagai pekerja dihitung berdasarkan nilai share and covering. Nilai share terhadap total pendapatan rumah tangga sebagai perawat satwa tergolong rendah (47,08%) dan sangat rendah (20,03%) bagi tenaga kerja. Covering pendapatan penangkaran perawat satwa (66,10%) dan tenaga kerja (24,93%) tidak dapat menutupi total pengeluaran rumah tangga.

The timor deer (Cervus timorensis) and the spotted deer (Axis axis) are species of deer bred in Indonesia. The number of deer populations in the wild is increasingly threatened by habitat destruction and wild hunting that requires ex-situ conservation effort, one of which is Lembah Paniisan Deer Captivity. The study aims to describe the welfare management and assess the level of welfare of deer, analyze the success rate of captivity, and calculate the value of the economic benefits of the deer and its socio-economic impact on community. The methods used are literature study, field observation, and interview. The results show that animal welfare management was rated as very good with an implementation reach of 85,10. The success rate of captivity belongs to the high category. The economic benefit value of the deer is calculated based on maintenance costs of Rp5,650,196.08/acre/year, based on the market price of Rp28,800,000–Rp67,500,000/pair. Profit value for individual deer sales of Rp45,903,529.41 in 2023 and Rp61,204,705.88 in 2022 and sales of deer-derived products of Rp50,900,00/year. The economic benefits of incarceration for the community involved as a worker are calculated based on share and covering. The share of total household income as a animal keeper is low (47.08%) and very low (20.03%) for the labor force. Covering the captivity income of animal keeper (66.10%) and labor (24.93%) could not cover the total household expenditure.
