Abstract
Superior native chickens Balitbangtan (KUB) is an innovation in breeding technology from the Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research and Development (IAARD) that has been successfully disseminated to all provinces in Indonesia. The estimated dissemination of KUB chicken seeds from 2009 to 2019 reached 1,839,664 seeds with different numbers of distribution in each region. However, from the dissemination data, it is necessary to know the level of farmer adoption in carrying out the sustainability of KUB chicken breeding. This also correlated to the seeds that are disseminated are not necessarily successfully developed in the area. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence the adoption of KUB Chicken seed adoption technology by famers in order to create sustainable livestock. The method used in this study is a schematic literature review (SLR) that consist of planning, conducting and reporting process. In general, the factors that influence farmers’ interest in adopting technology as the dominant factors influencing technology adoption are age (26%), education (22%), experience/skills (18%), land ownership (13%), family conditions (13%), income (4% ), and communication (4%). As a follow-up for future livestock development plans, it is necessary to study the profile of KUB chicken distribution and estimate the production potential of the dissemination seeds by looking at the characteristics of farmers in an area through field surveys.
