Abstract

This study was aimed to analyze factors and models of business sustainability of smallholder layer farms in Kendal Regency, Indonesia. Purposive sampling method was used to select 120 active layer chicken farmers in Sukorejo, Pageruyung, Patean, Limbangan, and Boja Districts as research respondents with the ownership of 300 to 10,000 birds. Research variables consisted of three external variables (social, economic, and institutional) and two internal variables (income and business sustainability). Closed questionnaires were used to collect data. The data were analyzed descriptively using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) by AMOS 21 software. The results showed that the exogenous and endogenous variables met the modeling criteria with Chi square value = 160.764; probability = 0.380; CMIN / DF = 1.031; GFI = 0.892; AGFI = 0.841; TLI = 0.998; CFI = 0.998; RMSEA = 0.016. Social, economic, institutional and income variables had a significant and positive influence (P≤0.05) on business sustainability. The constructed model had a strong and positive relationship, so it could illustrate the sustainability model of layer business in Kendal Regency.

Abstract

A study had been conducted to evaluate the performance of Islamic Boarding Schools (IBS) in developing the beef cattle agribusiness partnerships network in Central Java. This study involved 24 IBS with each IBS selected two respondents, namely one from internal (santri) and one from external (farmer community). Sample determination uses purposive sampling method. This study uses Gap Analysis by determining the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) value. Primary data were collected through direct observation and interviews with respondents. Secondary data was obtained from relevant government institutions. The results showed that the beef cattle agribusiness partnership network that was developed by IBS still did not satisfy for santries and farmer communities (CSI.s.total : 30.73% and CSI.f.total : 47.05%). It was concluded that farmer communities were very enthusiastic about establishing the beef cattle agribusiness partnerships with IBS; the santries needed additional livestock curriculums; IBS needed training and assistance from the other parties (government, private sector, etc.) in order to improve the ability to raise beef cattle and the ability to train, instruct and plan the beef cattle farming development in surrounding area. Increasing the ability of IBS automatically can increase the effectiveness of IBS role as an empowerment institution for surrounding community.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the impact of electronic marketing utilization and to determine the economic determinants to increase the income of small dairy farmers in Boyolali, Central Java, Indonesia. A survey of 80 dairy farmers from the Cepogo District, Boyolali was determined by simple random sampling. The results showed that the average milk production was 8.3 liters/head/day, the revenue of IDR 3,824,000 per month, production costs of IDR 2,105,000 per month, and income of IDR 1,719,000 per month. Furthermore, by using electronics marketing, farmers could sell 40% of their products to coffee shops and generate revenue of IDR 5,411,500, production costs of IDR 2,705,000 and income of IDR 2,706,500. The utilization of the electronic marketing could increase R/C from 2.1 to 2.43. Economic factors that influence income are market prices, transportation and communication costs, marketing costs and distance traveled. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the use of the electronic market can expand the market, increase milk prices and ultimately will increase income

Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop models for determination the superiority of Holstein bulls as a producer of frozen semen and inheritance of the genetic traits of milk production. The ability of the bull to produce frozen semen per years was analyzed descriptively. Reproductive efficiency of frozen semen in artificial insemination was calculated by service per conception (S/C). Estimation sire breeding value for milk production was calculated by contemporary comparison (CC) method. Model of superiority bulls was analyzed by Structural Equation Model with Partial Least Square method (SEM-PLS). Total average production of frozen semen was 23,109±14,970 doses/year. The average S/C was 2.83. The CC value ranged from -1,865.7 until +1,636.3. Potency of milk production resulted from lactation cow offspring per bulls ranged from 951,749.2 to 52,347,822.9 liters per year. The economic value of bulls based on the potency milk production of offspring ranges from IDR 4,758,745,999 to IDR 261,739,114,505. The superiority of bulls was affected significantly (P<0.05) by frozen semen production, reproductive efficiency and average milk production of daughter cows (DC) as much as 0.59, -0.53 and 0.33, respectively. In conclusion, the superiority of bull can be explained about 78.3% by the production of frozen semen production, reproductive efficiency and milk production of offspring.
