Enrichment Planting Technology in Timor Deer (Rusa timorensis Blainville 1822) Captive Breeding with Mini Ranch System in Semi Arid Land

ABSTRACT

East Nusa Tenggara province lies in quite extreme climate region. Climate become limiting factor for land productivity and carrying capacity is one of the main factor in timor deer captive breeding with mini ranch system. Enrichment planting is a solution to overcome limited land productivity. Carrying capacity in the mini ranch was estimated by periodic feed cutting inside 20 fenced 1x1 meter area within 1 ha area. Productivity in the mini ranch with enrichment was 72.11 kg/ha/day which can provide feed for 12.62 timor deer/ha, compared with non enrichment mini ranch area, it's carrying capacity was 2.24 timor deer/ha. Species planted for enrichment are Pennisetum purpureum, Pennisetum purpuphoides and Leucaena leucocephala. Natural grasses in the mini ranch with high palatability were Calopogiunium mucunoides, Agrantum sp, Centella asiatica, Flamengia sp., and Cyperus sp.
