The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of cattle business insurance in Timbuseng Village, North Polongbangkeng District, Takalar Regency, Indonesia. The research type is descriptive research. Data were collected through interviews using questionnaires with 35 farmers who had participated in the livestock insurance programme. Farmers^ attitudes were analysed using a Likert scale index score. The effectiveness score of cattle business insurance was 83%, classified as highly effective based on the three variables examined, namely objective achievement, integrity, and adaptation. This demonstrates that the presence of the cattle business insurance programme in the study area is appreciated by farmers and that it operates efficiently despite certain challenges encountered in the field.
