Total sample was 51 beef cattle farmers which was choosed purposively. Data were consisted of primary and secondary data. Data were collected through observation and depth interview by using questionnaire. Biosecurity practices consisted of sanitation, tools and equipment, diseases and diseases prevention, and calf management. There were 34 questions adopted from Biosecurity Good Management Practices. By using Guttman scale, the score for each answer was 1 if beef cattle farmers DO, and 0 if DO NOT DO Biosecurity practices. Data were analyzed descriptively by using percentage. The research revealed that the application of biosecurity practices on beef cattle farms in Bone Regency was in medium level. The lowest percentage was calf management (35.00%), followed by disease prevention (40.00%). Extension and training should be given intensively to improve their level of biosecurity practices. ## Keywords - Biosecurity - Sanitation - Beef cattle - Agricultural science - Guttman scale - Veterinary medicine - Biology - Animal science - Engineering - Medicine - Mathematics - Ecology - Environmental engineering - Statistics --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
