PEKANBARU CITY LIVESTOCK MARKETING WITH ANDROID-BASED APPLICATIONS

This research was conducted to provide solutions to cattle breeders in Pekanbaru City, especially in Rumbai District. Cattle breeders always have difficulty selling cows due to middlemen and coupled with the pandemic period due to the Covid 19 virus, thus making cattle sales decline every year. In increasing the sale of cattle during this pandemic is to use technology as a marketing solution. The technology used in the research is android based. With an Android base, consumers and producers will be integrated with each other so that the buying and selling process becomes easier. The purpose of this study is to help cattle sellers in marketing cattle so that the buying and selling process becomes easy. The method used is Unified Modeling Language (UML) in designing this system. The results show the success of designing applications for cattle sellers, applications can help farmers market their cattle, information about cattle prices to be compared in livestock groups can be seen so as to minimize fraud because buyers can directly see the price of the cattle.


Introduction
Along with the development of the digital era, internet access is increasingly accessible to the public. According to data released by the Association of Indonesian Internet Service Providers, internet users have continued to grow since the 18th century. In 1998 internet users in Indonesia were only 0.5 million people and increased to 132.7 million users in 2016. Internet users who continue to grow increasingly increase the frequency of internet access (Aprilia, et. al., 2018). The increasing population and changes in consumption patterns and people's tastes have caused the national consumption of beef to tend to increase. So far, the demand for beef in Indonesia is met from three sources, namely: local cattle, imported cattle, and imported meat. The population of cattle in Pekanbaru City is 4,555 heads (Pekanbaru Agriculture and Fisheries Statistics, 2019). So far, the marketing of cattle in Pekanbaru is dominated by middlemen. Farmers only raise cattle without thinking about marketing. The existence of intermediary traders in terms of breeders is very helpful when marketing their livestock and makes it easier for farmers to get cash when farmers need it (Rohmawati & Ramadhani, 2020;Saravanan & Saraniya, 2018).
With technology the problems that when marketing cattle will be a solution to the problems above. The technology applied is in the form of an information system that is placed on the android platform (Afandi, et. al., 2021). Making this application is intended so that consumers and sellers of cattle can make buying and selling transactions. The system is equipped with a selection of cash or non-cash payment methods (transfers) that are tailored to the wishes of the buyers (Subagyo & Ardiansyah, 2020). So that at the time of payment transactions between buyers and sellers will be easier (Gupta, et. al., 2018). As for the formulation of the problem in this study, namely: 1. How to make an android application that can market the cows.
2. How about the android application will make it easier for cattle farmers to market their livestock. Based on the formulation of the existing problems, the objectives of this study are as follows: 1. Helping consumers in purchasing cows 2. Increase the income of cattle sellers Admin and cattle breeders will directly try the use and manage the system that has been running. There are two applications that will provide training to cattle farmers. The first is a web-based application, this application is for managing cow data, buyer data, sales data and reports, while the second is an android-based application to display images and prices of cattle on the Android front page so that buyers are free to choose cattle that have been inputted by cattle farmers. The method of evaluating the achievement of targets is carried out at the beginning and end of the activity. This is to determine the level of knowledge of participants and receive input for improvement in subsequent activities.

Results and Discussions
System Analysis System analysis is done by identifying and evaluating the problems that occur, as well as what obstacles exist so that the system can be planned. This system analysis also aims to design and improve existing systems from manual to automatic. System Design This stage is the stage after the system analysis is complete, so it can be continued by building an Android-based cattle sales application.

Purpose of System Design
The purpose of the design is to build a system that will be more measurable and consistent so that the objectives of the research will be met. Overview of the proposed system Nowadays, the internet is a phenomenal thing and has become a primary thing in life. From the business side, the internet has become a necessity in marketing a product and has even become the most powerful promotional tool because of the speed of its spread. Likewise, making the application for selling cows is expected to be a promotional tool in marketing cows from breeders in the district. Tassel. The system will be made with several levels of access, namely admin, reseller/supplier and consumer levels. Each level has different rights. Orders made by consumers will be processed by the admin by contacting the reseller to prepare the order whether it is available or not. When consumers want to order beef, consumers must register first.

F. Activity Diagrams
The following is an Activity Diagram modeling for an Android-Based Cattle Sales Application: 1) Actors install android-based applications 2) After installation, the SIPEPI icon will appear on the smartphone 3) Actors just click the SIPEPI icon, the page will immediately appear 4) The application will display a database query in accordance with the information data desired by the actor. 5) Actors will see Android Based Cattle Sales Application. 6) Process ends H. System Implementation

Discussions
In developing this android-based application, the research uses the web view method so that the application is exactly the same as the web-based application. In the current study, researchers will discuss the use of android-based applications by creating an instrument that contains questions about the use of android-based applications. Based on the results of the questionnaire recapitulation from the seller, it can be concluded that the value of 89% is in the category of strongly agree. This shows that the androidbased application is useful for sellers to market their cattle globally.

Analysis of several respondents from online sellers can be concluded that online sellers state that there are no obstacles in using livestock sales applications, the appearance of the application looks attractive, online sellers know that livestock selling products only accept healthy and worthy livestock, if there are those who sell livestock that are less appropriate, it will be immediately contacted and informed by the livestock sales party then delete it from the livestock application. In addition, the menus in the livestock application do not make it difficult for online sellers, it feels easy and easy to use the livestock sales application (Bruce, et. al., 2021). Analysis of the questionnaire to consumers that the design of an Android-based cattle marketing information system is easy to use by consumers because consumers strongly agree with the design of this information system by looking at the average value of 73.6%. In this regard, the rapid development of technology cannot be denied and avoided so that more and more people are interested in buying products online. In addition, this application helps and makes it easier for people to buy and choose livestock as desired. People do not have to be present at the livestock market to get the livestock they need. The existence of the livestock sales application is a new alternative for the community, besides that the livestock sales application is felt by the community to be more effective and efficient because people can directly choose livestock products via Android as needed without having to come to the livestock market and in terms of time buyers also save time because they are special. Buyers who have busy activities and busy schedules can directly order and buy in the livestock sales application.

Conclusion
The conclusions obtained by the researchers, after conducting this research are: Researchers have succeeded in making an android application prototype. This android application can help cattle sellers to sell livestock products to consumers so that they can increase their livestock sales. This application can help consumers find cattle and can compare prices between fellow cattle sellers. This application can facilitate transactions between sellers and consumers so that they can avoid fraud in transactions. From the results of the questionnaire, sellers and consumers agree with this android-based application. With the many benefits that can be obtained, Cattle Buyer Questionnaire Graph of course the application must be developed more optimally, especially in terms of server infrastructure, because there will be many who access the Android-based application.
