Abstract

Losses due to parasitic infections, especially worms in livestock in Indonesia are very large. Helminthiasis is a disease in beef cattle which is common in traditional farms. This study aims to use a cost-benefit analysis for two scenarios in handling helminthiasis (coccidiosis), namely Program A (controlling worming with Albendazole and one type of antibiotic) and Program B (controlling administering coccidiosis drug and two types of antibiotics). The activity began with the investigation of animal diseases in the city of Mukomuko, Kab. Mukomuko, Bengkulu in the activity obtained information that calves were not given worm medication 8.14 times the risk of helminthiasis that ended in death and worms found 40% Eimeria (Coccidiosis). The results of a cost-benefit analysis of helminthiasis with details of the first scenario (NPV: 191,682,324; BCR: 2.95; IRR: 169.08%) and the second scenario (NPV: 1,018,538,931; BCR: 4 , 37; IRR: 241,62). From this value the two programs provide a positive net present value (NPV) but in the second scenario it is greater than the first and the return on investment is greater than the discount rate, while the benefit and cost ratio (B / C ratio) > 1 for both scenarios but the second scenario has a ratio of 2 times greater than the first scenario. Taking into account the three criteria of benefit cost analysis, it can be said that the control of helminthiasis (coccidiosis) in the second scenario is better and more efficient than the first scenario
