20. LOCATION
The business address is at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan Kampus
Jeli, Beg
Berkunci No. 100, 17600 Jeli, Kelantan. Ideally located farm or
feedlot project located at least 0.5 km radius of residential or
houses and industry and not too close to the river or irrigation
system. This is to avoid flooding when heavy rain. Surrounding
area should be fenced farm feedlot (perimeter fence) and filled
with trees plants or fruits.
Avoid low areas and easy sink when flooding occurs. Make sure
that the access roads to the farm can be passed throughout the
season and can hold heavy vehicles (truck) up weighing 16 tons.
Feedlot cattle project site should be a strategic area in terms of
topography, environment and infrastructure.
22. COMPETITION
Our big competitor is the supplier of beef from
Thailand, as Jeli is nearby Rantau Panjang.
-Our operation would be worse if we cannot
overcome the infectious disease. Otherwise, our
operation would be better if we success to overcome
this crisis that affecting the cattle.
23. MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS
Efficient and systematic management is important is to ensure the
health of livestock, increased body weight daily maximum , minimum
operating cost control and profit optimization. Management Livestock
feedlot cattle breeds in particular should be bathed at least once a day
to reduce the thermal load (heat stress) . This action, which helps to
increase appetite diet ( feed intake ) that determine the daily weight
increase high. Observation and random inspections to be done from
time to time to ensure the comfort , health , nutrition and weight gain
of livestock performance
24. MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONS

25. PERSONNEL
Most feedlot operators or owners do not do livestock management directly,
instead employ the necessary labor . Therefore, personnel management is
important
Management personnel include the following activities :

, the size and type of feedlot operations undertaken . Rate efficient and
optimal employee compared to the number and types of cattle feedlot
operations are as follows :

manufacture of organic fertilizer, halal slaughter, livestock logistics
procedures, the use of probiotics EM (Effective Micro-organisms), strategic

RECOMMANDATION
33. Cattle and sheep industry less interested in the country and we feel compelled
to attract the young people especially in village to involved farming sector.
This is because livestock industry not enough to meet local demand, but need
to dependent on imports around 75 percent. Malaysia is rich with grasses but
still far omissions in the livestock industry because no interest among the
younger generation. Still many areas not fully exploited, neglected and wasted,
while it may reduce unemployment problem. Furthermore, the country needs
more than 500,000 goats year and 95 percent is imported from Australia,
Thailand and Indonesia, thus cause the flow of money out of the country. This
time for starting,, we only have stock 10 head of cattle for sale. However, we do
not sell fresh meat, but sell live cattle.
CONCLUSION
