“…Since feed conversion ratio is the main factor that determines the profit/loss of the farm, and because feed accounts for more than 70% of the production costs (Osti et al, 2016), we calculated the average least mean square values for 6-week body weight, feed intake, water intake and FCR. Broiler feed intake was significantly different between the summer and the winter.…”

Chickens tolerate a very narrow range of climatic variation, and therefore, it is essential to determine the most suitable climatic area and weather for broiler production in open-house systems. In this study, 3060 broilers were used as experimental birds to investigate the effects of seasonal differences and climatic variations on the growth performance of broilers reared in an open-house system. Birds were kept under various treatment models that differ in climate Tropic zone, sub tropic zone and temperate zones. Data were recorded during JulyAugust as summer months and January-February as winter months. Collected data was analyzed using the least square procedure given by Harvey-1990. Significantly higher (p<0.05) level of corticosteroids and H/L ratio of between the experimental birds was observed and consequent effect on feed intake was determined. The body weight and FCR at 42 day was significantly (p≤0.05) higher during winter season in subtropical zone. Subtropical climatic zone was found significantly better than other climatic zone. Efficient management of broiler farming that corresponds for effective feed intake during heat/cold stress to maximize bird's efficiency can significantly increase production efficiency and acquiesce highest profit to broiler farming.

“…Perusahaan kecil sering menghadapi persaingan pasar dengan perusahaan besar yang memproduksi lebih efisien, sehingga perusahaan kecil dengan modal terbatas akan menghadapi risiko keberlanjutan usahanya. Osti et al (2016) menyatakan bahwa efisiensi produksi telur dalam menggunakan faktor produksi, terutama pakan, pada peternakan besar lebih tinggi dibanding peternak kecil.…”

INTISARITelur ayam merupakan makanan yang populer dan bergizi. Kegiatan produksi dalam menghasilkan telur memerlukan investasi yang harus memberi manfaat bagi pengusaha, terutama pada skala kecil dengan keterbatasan modal dan risiko. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi kelayakan finansiil investasi dan menetapkan alternatif dalam menghadapi risiko pada peternak ayam petelur skala kecil. Metode survei dilakukan dengan mengambil 73 responden secara purposive peternak ayam petelur skala kecil di Desa Triwidadi, Kabupaten Bantul, Yogyakarta. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara langsung dengan responden menggunakan kuesioner yang terkait dengan masalah penelitian ini. Analisis kriteria kelayakan investasi secara finansial menggunakan net present value (NPV), benefit cost (B/C) rasio dan internal rate of return (IRR), diikuti analisis sensitivitas untuk menghadapi risiko bisnis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rerata jumlah pemeliharaan 1.572 ekor ayam petelur menghasilkan NPV sebesar Rp37.377.383 dalam 5 tahun investasi, rasio B / C lebih dari 1 dan IRR adalah 20,58%. Berdasarkan pengelolaan produksi saat ini, investasi ayam petelur skala kecil adalah layak diusahakan, namun petani menghadapi risiko kerugian akibat kenaikan harga pakan, turunnya harga telur, dan terjadinya kenaikan angka kematian. Untuk mengantisipasi risiko tersebut, petani harus dapat meningkatkan produktivitas sehingga rerata produksi telur harian minimal 77% pada kenaikan harga pakan atau penurunan harga telur 5%. Usaha ayam petelur skala kecil dapat menyediakan lapangan kerja dan kesejahteraan bagi masyarakat kelas bawah.(Kata kunci: Analisis investasi, Analisis sensitivitas, Pengusaha kecil, Produksi telur ayam) ABSTRACT Chicken eggs are the most popular and nutritious food in human dietary.The production activities require investments that should create benefit for the business holder, especially for small-scale entrepreneurs with capital constraint and risks.

“…Tugiyanto et al (2013) explain that the production factor consisting of the amount of feed, the number of livestock, egg production, labor, drugs, and medication simultaneously have effects on the net revenue and efficiency of laying-chicken breeding business in Wonosobo Regency. The amount of feed and egg production individually has a significant impact on the net revenue and efficiency of laying-hen farms (Osti et al, 2016).…”

Feed plays an important role in determining the success of livestock businesses and also as a significant cost factor. Feed contributes 60%-80% of the total production costs. The types of feed could have different effects on the cost, efficiency, and productivity of livestock business. Some laying-hen farmers in Blitar District use two kinds of feed, semi self-mixed feed, and total self-mixed feed. This study was conducted to compare the use of two types of feed on the net revenue of laying hen farmers in Blitar Regency. The research used the survey method. The sample in this research consisted of 100 laying-hen farmers in Blitar Regency, 50 of them used semi self-mixing feed and the rest used total self-mixing feed. Data were collected from several laying hen farms in Blitar Regency with a survey method. All data were then analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The average feed price of semi self-mixed feed and total self-mixed feeds were IDR 5,143.38 and IDR 4,854.91 per kg, respectively. The results showed that the feed price, cost of medication/vaccine, the amount of feed, and egg production for semi self-mixed feed farmers had significant effects on the net revenue of the farmer (p<0.05), with the average net revenue being IDR 12,785,471.68 per 1,000 birds/period. Whereas for total self-mixed feed, the medication/vaccine cost and feed amount had significant effects on the net revenue of the farmer (p<0.05), with the average net revenue being IDR 18,467,373.76 per 1,000 birds/period. As a conclusion, the total self-mixed feed showed more optimal net revenue of laying hen than semi selfmixed feed. Keywords: net revenue of laying hen farmers; semi self-mixed feed; total self-mixed feed
