production in a region (especially in South Sulawesi Province) is strongly influenced by
the capacity and quantity of feed sources and the distance of livestock to areas that
produce duck feed. Duck production is closely influenced by the human population,
demand and taste for ducks, and the involvement of the private sector in advancing the
duck business in a particular region. The conditions of the region strongly influence duck
meat and egg consumption. There is a culture that makes duck eggs a unique
characteristic. And there are also tourist areas with a very high taste and interest in duck
consumption. This shows that tourist areas are generally areas that have the highest
population of visitors or migrants from other regions/districts.
