Kepahiang Regency which pepper was cultivated. In 2009 1,962 tons were harvested. Plantations by larger corporations that might exist are not included. The climate in Kepahiang is suitable for breeding various kinds of land animals and fish. Species that are currently bred in Kepahiang are goldfish, tilapia, cichlids and barbels. Pisciculture is still operated on a small scale level by locals. Therefore, the potential remains largely untapped. Besides pisciculture, diary and slaughter cattles, goats, ducks and chicken are bred in Kepahiang as well. The livestock and fish farming is being funded under the program IKUTT serving as an additional source of income
Captive breeding artificial insemination procedure. Furthermore, this approach yields lower-quality semen, because shipping requires extending the life of the sperm for the transit time. There are regional programmes for the conservation of endangered species: The objective of many captive populations is to hold similar levels of genetic diversity to what is found in wild populations. As captive populations are usually small and maintained in artificial environments, genetics factors such as adaptation, inbreeding and loss of diversity can be a major concern. Adaptive differences between plant and animal populations arise due to variations in environmental pressures. In the case of captive breeding prior
