AB  - One of the livestock products that play an
important role in improving food security in Indonesia is
beef. Increased income, changes in consumption patterns
and population growth and increased public knowledge
about nutrition affect the need for the number of cattle
being slaughtered as one of the producers of meat protein
in Indonesia. The purpose of this research was to
determine the production capacity and consumption of
beef in the province of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT). This
research was conducted in NTT for 6 months, starting
from Juli to Desember, 2019. This study of beef
consumption is included in the case study classification.
The type of data used in this study are primary and
secondary data obtained from sources related to this
study. Analysis of the data obtained was carried out
descriptively, namely analysis carried out by way of
explanation, writing and statements that could be in the
form of words (qualitative) and numbers (quantitative).
Data analysis was conducted to determine the production
capacity of beef cattle, beef production and consumption
of beef. The results of this study indicate that cutting
cattle to meet the needs of the resident in NTT is
increasing year by year along with the rate of resident
growth and lifestyle of the community. The cuts carried
out are still within the limits of Law which is under 10%
of the total cattle population in NTT. But the slaughter of
these livestock did not meet the standards of nutrition and
animal protein needs. This is because the consumption of
protein from beef products in NTT has only reached 12%
of the ideal total protein requirement for each person.
