The farmers marketed their cattle individually by selling to the middleman known as “belantik”who come to the farm location. The price paid by the belantik was determined based on estimated weight ofcattle, in which the skill of farmers in this case was not adequate. The market structure faced by farmers leads tomonopsony, market chain was too long, and farmers’ bargaining position was weak. The above conditions caused tolow farmer’s share, it was only 63.48%. This Community service aims to improve the efficiency of cattle marketingin this group so that the farmer’s share could be increased. The methods used were a lecture, discussion, andpractice.
