What kind of animal farm is the most common find in Bali? Yes, you correct. The answer is pig. Beside pig there are Balinese Ox/cow and chicken, meanwhile duck doesn’t less famous than those three. Most farmer in Bali Breed pig or/and cow. It is like a must for Balinese farmer to have those kind animal, well at least they have chicken.

Chicken and duck often used as “sesajen” (ritual offering) in Bali. Not any kind of chicken and duck can be used for sesajen. Depend on the ritual that will be held on the time. Pig, most Balinese eat pork and also often use as ritual offering. Balinese cow, known for its quality of meat (beef) and today it spreads all over Indonesia for animal farm.

This animals farm one of the important factor that effort economy in Bali. No wonder there are such of programs from local government related to this livestock. One of the example, for those who willing to have cow but lack in cash, government lend them 1 cow, after 2 times birth (give the calf to government) they can have the mother.

Until now this kinds of programs running quite well. Hopefully getting better to the next day.

Warm Regards,
