Description
Summary:The purpose of this research is to know how to manage livestock waste into biogas energy in Jetak Village, Semarang Regency. The method used qualitative descriptive with qualitative descriptive approach. The technique of determining key informants was done by purposive sampling. Data were obtained from cattle ranchers who lived in the study sites through interviews, observation and documentation. The result of this research is the community biogas users in Jetak Village who get assistance from DAK (Special Budget Fund) in 2008 not yet fully utilize this technology optimally. This can be seen from some of the user community that experienced obstacles such as cracking of main digester, utilization of less than maximum energy,etc. The community of users who get this assistance is a community that has a large number of farms about 15-20 head of cattle, so it is expected that the potential of gas produced greater and can help the surrounding community to meet the needs of energy. Each user community distributes the gas to five local people. At this time some of the installation has been damaged so that people again use LPG gas for energy fulfillment, especially cooking activity.
