Abstract
The agri-food industry for beef cattle is an activity that integrates the development of the agricultural sector along with the development of industrial sectors and related services in a cluster of the beef cattle industry, upstream in downstream. This study aims to determine the increase in farmers income through artificial insemination in the agri-food sector of beef cattle in the Sinjai Central District, Sinjai Regency region. There were 100 intentional breeders, consisting of 50 natural cattle ranchers and 50 artificial insemination breeders interviewed, to be used as data sources. The data analysis uses the income formula and is explained descriptively. The business income of an artificial insemination or mating beef is positive if it counts only the income. The income is of very low value if the most important components of the livestock sector, such as fixed costs and variable costs, namely pens, land rent for animal feed, fertilizer and hand -work, are also calculated. the average income of a natural companion is Rp. 5,052,480 in artificial insemination cattle Rp. 6,854,960. According to the results obtained from the sale of cattle by natural mating or artificial insemination, there is a significant difference between the two: a natural laying cow can only be worth millions of dollars if it is at least a year old, while a cow from artificial insemination requires only a few months to be evaluated at millions of rupiahs This is due to differences in the acceleration of cows growth. The majority of the cows sold by the breeders in the Sinjai center are males, which is rather worrisome for the breeders of natural cattle due to the fact that many have started using artificial insemination, as this makes things easier when their cows are in covetousness.
