Abstract. As an archipelago, Indonesia is more vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
The potential impacts of climate change are changes in rainfall patterns, rising temperatures,
and rising sea levels. One of the islands in Indonesia that is vulnerable to climate change is Bali
Island. To support mitigation and adaptation efforts, hence information is needed about climate
change in Bali. Sectors that will receive the impact of climate change seriously are the forestry,
agriculture, and livestock sectors. Sustainable in the livestock sector is of course very concerned.
Especially for cattle, beef cattle are a commodity in the livestock sub-sector as a meat producer,
job creation, and a source of income for farmers. The purpose of this is to examine the
sustainability of smallholder livestock based on climatological conditions, land resources, and
farmer profiles. The research was conducted in Bangli and Gianyar Regency, Bali Province.
The material used is with 200 farmer with direct interviews. The method used was the
Participating Rural Appraisal (PRA) survey. The results of this study of land resources in the
Bangli Regency are 42.502 ha of plantation land (29.92%) with the type of coffee plantation,
while in Gianyar Regency using field with 14.790 ha (40.19%) with climatological conditions
that support the two locations. From the breeder profile. The results showed that most of the
farmers were old, had low education, had low main jobs as breeders and livestock. The positive
thing is that the farming takes a long time and has a good detection ability so that it can be
detrimental to the experience that the climatological conditions, land resources, and farmer
profile can continue for smallholder farmers in Bali.
