Advice about Owner IDs

• The owner ID is the owner's mobile phone number.
• To make life easier for users the owner's ID can be shortened to be just the last few digits of the phone number - as long as it remains unique for all the owners in the sender's area of responsibility.

Register a livestock owner

DP [Name] [Location Code] {Owner identification}

• Message is sent by a registered inseminator or para-vet.
• The message always begins with DP
• Farmer name – try to write the name correctly and fully, using first name and family name and capitals where appropriate
• Location code – where the livestock owner lives, to the desa level (8 digit location code). Use CKL system query to find the correct code.
• Optional - Alternative owner identifier number if not using telephone number. See below for more details.

Identifying a livestock owner

• At least 50% of farmers have mobile telephones which have unique numbers within Indonesia. The preference is to use a livestock owner's mobile telephone number during the registration process. The Confirmation step (KDP) allows the system to capture the farmer's phone number accurately and automatically and confirm their involvement.
• For those farmers without a mobile phone, a different number may be used. Owners can be registered with an alternative identifier, such as:
  • their Driver's Licence: SIM (12 digits)
  • their local identifier (8 digits or less), such as an existing ID number from the local cooperative or a local farmer id scheme.
  • their date of birth - ddmmyy
  • If this alternative identifier is used, the farmer does not have to confirm the registration as would happen for those farmers registering with a phone number.

Farmer confirmation if using telephone as identifier

KDP [PIN]

• This message is sent from the new farmer's own phone number.
• The message always starts with KDP.
• PIN code sent to the registering inseminator's phone during first registration step (DP).
• The PIN code should be sent back to iSIKHNAS within 20 minutes of the initial registration step. If not, it cannot be used and the registration process must begin again.

• This process captures the correct phone number of the newly registered owner and confirms that he/she is willing to participate in the system.
• This step is not needed if registering using an alternative identifier.
• Note: It is possible to register a livestock owner using his phone number in two ways - one will require the KDP and the other does not require the owner to use the KDP.

Example: Step 1: DP [Name] [Location Code] ( and ignore the optional {Owner identification} ) Step 2: KDP [PIN]

or

Step 1:DP [Name] [Location Code] {Owner identification} (Using the optional alternative identifier such as a coop code, local farmer code or date of birth. See above.)
