Penyuluhan Pengelolaan Peternakan Ayam Petelur di UD. Golden Egg di Desa Talok Kecamatan Pangkah Kabupaten Tegal

Abstract

 This activity aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of poultry farmers through training sessions covering aspects of feed management, animal health, animal welfare, financial management, and occupational safety and health. The methods used include educational sessions, demonstrations, and pre-test and post-test assessments to measure participants' understanding. The effectiveness of the training was evaluated through monitoring in the fourth week after the sessions by observing changes in farming practices. The results showed that the training effectively improved participants' competencies, although educational background influenced their comprehension and application of the material. Participants with higher education levels showed more significant improvement, especially in abstract concepts such as feed management and financial management. Meanwhile, participants with lower education levels benefited more from practical-based methods. Therefore, a more interactive and participant-oriented training approach should be implemented to achieve optimal learning outcomes.
