Indonesia includes ecological dimension. The sustainability index of
the ecological dimension indicates a sustainable status (> 50%) which
includes 9 attributes, namely testicular physique, fresh semen pH,
semen color, semen consistency, spermatozoa motility, spermatozoa
movement, spermatozoa concentration, spermatozoa viability, and
spermatozoa morphology. Of the 9 attributes that function as leverage,
the most important is the movement and concentration of epididymal
spermatozoa.

1 INTRODUCTION
The attribute of animal health status in the ecological dimension in the
management of Ruminant Slaughterhouse (RPH-R) is one of the
leverage attributes with a Root Mean Square (RMS) value of 5.08.
This means that these attributes have a major influence on the
sustainability index of the ecological dimension in the sustainable
RPH-R service business management model. In the same way, the
attribute of semen salvage and preservation technology with an RMS
value of 3.95 is also one of the attributes included in the technology
dimension sustainability index in the sustainable RPH-R service
business management model [18]. These two attributes, both animal
health status and semen preservation technology, have a high
correlation in the utilization of the epididymal spermatozoa of large
ruminant cattle in RPH-R in supporting food sovereignty in Indonesia.
Prohibition of slaughtering productive female animals has been
promoted by the government, so that the slaughter of female animals
can be more controlled. Unfortunately, the rules for slaughtering male
animals have not been regulated, so that many productive bulls that
have good performance are wasted, whereas in the testes, especially
in the epididymis, there is a source of genetic material that can still be
utilized. One source of genetic material for native Indonesian animals
is found in RPH-R, which is managed by the government in the form
of Regional Technical Implementation Units (UPTD), Regional Owned
