Local cattle competitiveness of forest fringe community was generally low, so that caused
weaknesses of community economic. Effort for enhancing local cattle competitiveness will
strengthen community economic through improving husbandry technology, structure of market
and industry and condition of local cattle demand. Long purpose of this research was creating
strong economics for fringes forest community. Special purpose in second year was implementing
model for enhanching local cattle competitiveness at some district at East Java such as
Sumenep, Tuban, Bojonegoro, Malang and Blitar. Methode which were used were PRA, FGD,
RRA, indept interview and survey. Achievement of model was measured by comparative and
competitive advantage analysis (DRCR and PCR). There were 4,729,298 cattles at East Java in
2015, 27 % of them were local cattle (Madura, Ongole, PO, Brahman, Bali). The biggest cattle
producer at East Java were District of Sumenep, Tuban, Malang, Bojonegoro and Blitar.
Comparative and competitive advantage of imported cattle was high which were showed by
DRCR 0.4396 and PCR 0.4262. Whereas competitive advantage of local cattle was high,
showed by PCR 0.3677, but comparative advantage was moderate, showed by DRCR 0.5134.
Average profit by raising 2 – 3 imported cattles was Rp 1,490,140/cattle/month, while local cattle
was Rp 1,454,000/cattle/moth. Imported cattle husbandry contribution on family income was
37.48 %, while local cattle was 33.91 %. Actually, local cattle husbandry relaStively need fewer
capital, price of beef was more expensive and more popular to consumer because of less fat
content. Six infrastucture of agribussiness which were needed for enhanching local cattle
competitiveness were human resources, technology, capital, raw material, machines and market.
