Dampak Flu Burung Terhadap Produksi Unggas dan Kontribusi Usaha Unggas Terhadap Pendapatan Peternak Skala Kecil di Indonesia

Abstract

The impact of AI, either directly or indirectly, has caused a sharp decrease of chicken to 60 percent. Various issues should be considered to control bird flu outbreaks in integrative, effective and fair ways. This is important not only to avoid people's fear, but also to deeply consider the farmer's sustainability business along with all activities related to the poultry industry. For this objective, Indonesia must have an understanding on the socioeconomic impacts of poultry industries, so that the program formulation of bird flu control would be more effective. The purposes of this study are: (1) (4) to analyze the impact of bird flu outbreaks and production factors on poultry production, and (5) to formulate policy recommendation to control AI and to reduce the economic losses due to its epidemics. The research locations were selected based on the three levels of criteria, i.e., mild attack (Lampung), moderate (East Java) and heavy (West Java). In each of these provinces, 720 respondents were interviewed using structured questionnaires. Data and information were analyzed using descriptive and quantitative type approaches. The study concluded that: (1) bird cage location affects the level of AI infestations, (2) poultry business sustainability is affected by the level of assault, type of poultry and patterns of business; (3) at aggregate level, the impact of bird flu has caused a decrease in the share of income obtained from poultry business, (4) beside a source of income, the poultry business also create jobs and (5) the level of infestations, the infected conditions, and the time of AI infestations are all affecting the production of poultry meat and eggs. Some policy recommendations to consider are: (1) to standardize the operating procedures of the determination of business location, good farming practices, and control outbreaks of dangerous infectious diseases; (2) changes of marketed products are required from live chickens to carcass; and (3) to maintain poultry business and income from small-scale farm activity, the broiler breeders are suggested to join the partnership pattern of business and the farmers are encouraged to find other economic activities for their additional sources of income.

The Happiness of Smallholder Layer-Chicken Farmers in Rural of East Java, Indonesia

“…The business of layer chicken farming has low-risk production and egg prices (Ulfa et al, 2014). The biggest production risk is if there is an outbreak of avian influenza (AI), as it once hit Asia in [2004][2005][2006] and made chicken production in Indonesia fell to 60% (Ilham & Yusdja, 2010). Small-scale poultry business is very vulnerable to the transmission of the disease that is harmful to livestock and human life because the economic capacity and knowledge of implementing biosecurity are very limited (Martindah et al, 2014).…”

Peneguhan diagnosis Avian Influenza pada Ayam Petelur yang Mengalami Gejala Penurunan Produksi

“…Penyakit AI lebih banyak mendapat perhatian jika dibandingkan dengan penyakit unggas lainnya karena sifatnya yang menular dari hewan ke manusia (zoonosis) dan dapat menyebabkan kematian pada manusia (Mcleod et al, 2007;Ilham dan Yusdja, 2010). Oleh karena itu, penurunan kejadian AI pada manusia perlu difokuskan pada pencegahan dan kontrol infeksi unggas serta perlunya strategi pengendalian pada unggas untuk mencegah penyebaran virus dan menyebabkan wabah terutama di negara-negara berkembang (Dharmayanti et al, 2005;Chon et al, 2008;Zeynalova et al, 2015 potong setara dengan 10 copy/µl (Payungporn et al, 2006 (Capua et al, 2003;Tarigan, 2015 (Kumar et al, 2003).…”

Implementation of Relationships between Stake holders in Small Scale Broiler Business Partnerships in Indonesia

“…Namun demikian, sampai saat ini, penerapan pola usaha kemitraan ayam ras pedaging antara pengusaha dan peternak skala kecil masih terus berlanjut. Krisis moneter medio 1997 dan wabah flu burung 2004-2005 mengakibatkan banyak peternak ayam ras pedaging skala kecil bangkrut, namun kemudian pulih dan berlanjut kembali setelah bermitra dengan perusahaan (Ilham 2015;Ilham & Yusdja 2010).…”
