KERAGAAN PRODUKSI SUSU DAN EFISIENSI USAHA PETERNAKAN SAPI PERAH RAKYAT DI INDONESIA
Abstract: The main issue in
the dairy farm business managed by the communities is the relatively low
efficiency level of the businesses run by some of the farmers. The research
objectives were to analyze the performance of dairy farm business, factors that
influence dairy production, and technical efficiency level of the community
dairy farm businesses in Indonesia. The research was conducted by surveys so
that the primary data from the samples of farmers’ households were obtained
through interviews and questionnaires. The analytical method used in this study
was the stochastic frontier production function. The results of the analysis
showed that the number of the lactating cows raised in small-scaled farm
businesses decreased from the previous year; on the other hand, the number of
the lactating cows in large-scaled farm businesses increased. Meanwhile, the
average milk productions have declined in both small and large-scaled farm
businesses. The results of the analysis of the stochastic frontier production
function showed that forage fodder input (HMT), concentrates, employment and
number of lactating cows are influential factors on milk production.Thus, the
efficiency analysis suggests that the level of technical efficiency of
large-scaled farm businesses is higher than that of the small-scaled farm
businesses, while the efficiency distribution is predominantly in the range of
0,80 to 1,00, which means that most farm businesses have achieved a high level
of technical efficiency. The individual factors from the farmers which are
influential in decreasing business inefficiency include age and education
level; on the contrary, the influences of experience and ownership of the
garden affect the efficiency in the opposite way.
