Abstract

The success of animal husbandry is supported by good animal and environmental health management practices. This study examined the correlation between the sheep farmer's characteristics and the animal and environmental health management practices. The data collected by direct interviews with 48 respondents in Batur Village, Banjarnegara. Indonesia. The aspects of animal (exercise, grooming, wool shearing, supplement feeding, and water drinking) and environmental (sheepfold sanitation, waste processing, and waste removal) health management practices were divided into three categories, namely low, medium, and high levels. The results showed that 83.3 of respondents were in the low-level following by medium (14.6) and high (2.1) levels of animal health management. Furthermore, on the environmental health management shows, 27.1 of respondents were in the low level, 60.4 in the medium level, and 12.5 in the high level. There was a significant relationship between farmers' characteristics (informal education, livestock farming experience, and the number of sheep) and animal health management practice. A significant relationship was also shown between formal education, livestock purpose, livestock experience, and number of sheep by farmers toward environmental health management practice. It may conclude that the low and medium levels of animal and environmental health management practices were dominant in Batur Village. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
