English. Increase of productivity of beef cattle can be done through integrated farming systems, where beef cattle has optimized the use of agricultural wastes, such as rice straw, rice bran, stalk and corn bran, with legumes leaves. In addition, beef cattle's feces could be used as compost to organic fertilizer for paddy and secondary crops. The assessment was conducted in Takalar and Barru district with two farmer's group.

Indonesian. Peningkatan produktivitas sapi potong dapat dilakukan secara terintegrasi dalam suatu sistem usahatani. Sapi memanfaatkan limbah pertanian seperti jerami dan dedak padi, batang dan dedak jagung, serta daun kacang-kacangan. Demikian juga dengan kotoran sapi melalui pengomposan menjadi pupuk organik untuk tanaman padi dan palawija. Pengkajian ini dilakukan di Kabupaten Takalar dan Kabupaten Barru masing-masing pada dua kelompok tani.
