Analisis Efisiensi Teknis Usaha Penggemukan Sapi Potong di Kabupaten Agam Provinsi Sumatera Barat
Abstrak: The domestic beef
cattle producers have supplied only 70 percent of the national need. Demand of
the beef cattle has not been accompanied by an increasing of supply response.
One of the major problems in beef cattle farming is its low productivity that
might be caused by its low efficiency of input use. Therefore, this study aims
are (1) to estimate the factors that influence the production of beef cattle
fattening, (2) to analyze the level of technical efficiency of beef cattle
fattening. The stochastic production frontier is used to estimate production
function. The results showed that quantity of concentrate, dummy of cattle’s
age, and dummy of livestock ownership significantly influence production. The
average value of the farm technical efficiency is 0.764 ranging from a minimum
of 0.478 to a maximum of 0.996.
