PENINGKATAN MANAJEMEN KANDANG SAPI PERAH PASCA WABAH PENYAKIT MULUT DAN KUKU (PMK) DI DESA MEDOWO KECAMATAN KANDANGAN KABUPATEN KEDIRI

The improvement of dairy cattle barn management post Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) outbreak is carried out to address the issues in Medowo Village, Kandangan District, Kediri Regency. The spread of FMD among livestock has caused significant losses, not only in terms of animal health but also economically for farmers. The decline in production and disruption of sales of livestock and their by-products are concrete examples of the economic losses experienced by farmers. The management of housing plays a crucial role in determining the success of livestock enterprises. Increasing farmers' knowledge and understanding of good dairy barn management will positively impact production and economic well-being. The implementation of biosecurity as a primary preventive measure to break the chain of virus transmission is one of the solutions that can be applied. The outcomes of this activity include an increased understanding of Foot-and-Mouth Disease, potential diseases that could affect dairy cattle, barn management practices, and optimal implementation of biosecurity.
