The Relationship Analysis between Service Performances of Milk Producer Cooperative with the Dairy Farm Performance of Members
Abstract: The main objective
of Milk Producers Cooperative (MPC) is to provide services to the members and
improve the performance of dairy farm of MPC members. The purposes of this
study were: (1) to analyze dairy farm performance of MPC members, (2) to
analyze performance of MPC services, and (3) to analyze the relationship
between service performance of MPC with dairy farm performance of MPC members.
The main data used were primary data. The analytical methods used included:
descriptive analysis, profit analysis and R/C Ratio, and Chi-Square. The study
showed that productivity and profitability of large-scale dairy farm was higher
than small-scale. The performance of small-scale dairy farm of MPC members was
relatively low both in terms of productivity and profitability. Most members
judged that the performance of MPC services was good. There was a positive
relationship between the MPC service performance (milk marketing, finance,
technical assistance, and education/training) with the performance of dairy
farm of MPC members. Coaching and more intensive services should continue to be
given by the MPC to the members, especially the members with the small-scale
dairy farms.
