RISIKO PRODUKSI AYAM BROILER DAN PREFERENSI PETERNAK DI KABUPATEN BEKASI
Abstract: Broiler farms are
dealing with many risks, especially the risk of production due to the
mortality. This study aimed to: 1) analyze the factors that affect the
production of broiler chickens, 2) analyze the risks faced by broiler farmers,
and 3) analyze the risk preferences of production. This study used two business
patterns of broiler chicken farms, i.e. cooperation/partnership and
independent. This study was conducted in Bekasi, a research area which was intentionally
chosen in a consideration that the area hasg a positive population trend. There
were 74 breeders involved in this study. The analysis was conducted by using
Just Pope function model and utility maximization. The results suggest that the
factors affecting broiler production include feeds and husks for the
independent farmers. Feeds, vaccines and density are influential variables for
production by the cooperative farmers. The variables that increase the
production risks in the independent farmers include vaccines, labor, and husk,
while the variable affecting the cooperative farmers is labor. The variable
that can minimize risks for the independent farmers is feeds, while for the
cooperative farmers, the variable is vaccine. The risk preference of the
independent farmers on the overall input usage is the risk averse or a tendency
to avoid risk. Broiler chicken farms require a counseling to improve their
quality of human resources, accurate schedule of vaccine applications, and
attention to husk condition in order to reduce risks.
