Abstract

Broiler chicken partnership is a business model that involves cooperation between farmers (plasma) and core companies (inti) to manage broiler farming, particularly in the Banyumas Regency, Central Java. This study aims to analyze the production elasticity in broiler farming with a partnership model in Banyumas Regency, Central Java Province. The partnership model was chosen as the focus of the study due to its significant role in improving production efficiency and farmers^ welfare. The data used in this study were obtained from the RHPP (Plasma Income Results Recapitulation) data for broiler farmers who are in partnership with core companies in the Banyumas Regency area. The analysis method used is the Cobb-Douglas analysis to measure the elasticity of the main production factors, such as feed, labor, and chicks. The results of the study indicate that production elasticity in broiler farming with a partnership model falls into the elastic category, meaning that changes in production inputs such as feed and labor have a significant impact on increasing production output. Feed is the most influential factor in increasing production, followed by chicks and labor. These findings indicate that optimizing the use of production inputs can enhance the efficiency and productivity of broiler farming.
