In the world of cattle farming today especially beef breeders in Indonesia, to determine the selling price are still using the traditional way is to estimate weight of the cattle using only vision. This practice has been done by many traders in the traditional market. But today many obsracles faced by the breeder one of them is the uncertain beef prices. Therefore, in this thesis designed a machine to help breeders to get their own cattle weight with trusted method. So the breeders can determine the price accurately. In designing this weight measuring instrument system used Rotary encoder module to measure part of the cow’s body grain that is chest width and body length, so the weight can be obtained using Arjodarmoko Method. Breeders can measure their cattle weight in any time with this portable device. In this weight measuring test which is took place at Pasar Hewan Ambarawa the results obtained average deviation 2,06% compared to the cattle digital scale, with the highest deviation 4,65% and the lowest 0,23% using six FH cows as sample. |
