BANTUL - The Bantul Regency Food and Agriculture Security Service, Yogyakarta Special Region, deployed 150 supervisory officers and monitoring supervisory officers for the slaughter of sacrificial animals on Eid al-Adha 1443 Hijriah. "As many as 150 officers consist of immigration and medical officers in the service, inseminator officers or injecting marriages, and from Gadjah Mada University (UGM) both coaches and students," said Bantul Food and Agriculture Security Service Head Joko Waluyo in Bantul, Friday, July 8. He said all the supervisory officers and monitoring of sacrificial animals had been given technical guidance (bimtek) from the government, in order to understand their duties and work in the field during the cuts on July 9 and 10, 2022. "In Bantul there are two days of slaughter, two days of Eid al-Adha on July 9 and 10, later on that day we ask officers to be able to monitor the implementation of animal slaughter, both Islamic law and health from the livestock," he said.

Thus, he said, it is hoped that later it will actually be able to produce good meat, healthy meat that is ready to be consumed by the people of Bantul Regency on the Idul Adha 2022 holiday. He said that at Eid al-Adha in 2021, the number of cows cut in Bantul reached 6,500, while more than 12 thousand goats and sheep were monitored than 2,202 prayer rooms and mosques throughout Bantul. He said that even though the number of prayer rooms and mosques reached 2,700 places, so that not all of them were monitored. "That's why the officers who will monitor sacrificial animals this year we deployed 150 people, coincidentally there are two Eid al-Adha days, so maybe later they can target more than 2021," he said.
