Dinamika Megatama Citra (DMC), located in Selokajang Village, Srengat District, Blitar Regency, with a broiler chicken population of 1,800. The study aimed to analyze internal factors (strengths and weaknesses) and external factors (opportunities and threats) to develop strategies for broiler chicken business growth in the village. This analysis is crucial as a foundation for business sustainability, particularly after the Covid-19 pandemic, which significantly impacted the economy and led to many broiler chicken houses becoming unused despite being in good condition. The study revealed that, in a single production cycle, the total live weight of the chickens reached 3,862 kilograms, sold at IDR 20,476 per kilogram, resulting in total sales revenue of IDR 79,006,425. Additional income from selling used cartons and sacks amounted to IDR 219,000, bringing the total revenue to IDR 79,295,425. Fixed costs incurred were IDR 1,487,200, and variable costs amounted to IDR 69,282,000, resulting in a total production cost of IDR 70,758,200. Thus, the profit earned per production cycle was IDR 8,539,225. The Return Cost Ratio (RCR) of 1.12 indicates that every IDR 1 invested in this business generates revenue of IDR 1.12, with a profit margin of IDR 0.112. Based on a SWOT analysis, the proposed development strategies for the broiler chicken business include partnership models and cage rental systems. According to the Internal-External (IE) Matrix, the broiler business with partnership and cage rental systems is positioned in Cell I, indicating a condition of growth and development with a strong position and high attractiveness.</p>2024-12-13T08:23:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 AVES: Jurnal Ilmu Peternakanhttps://ejournal.unisbablitar.ac.id/index.php/aves/article/view/4098PERBEDAAN PENGGUNAAN BIOSLURRY DAN PUPUK KOMERSIAL PADA TANAMAN PAKAN RUMPUT PAKCHONG2024-12-13T20:47:28+07:00alfan setya winurdanaalfanyadana@gmail.comresti yuliana rahmawatirestiyuliana.r@gmail.commuhamad khamim hanufim.khahanufi@gmail.com<p><strong>This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bioslurry and NPK fertilizer on the growth of elephant grass (<em>Pennisetum purpureum cv Thailand</em>), focusing on two key parameters: fresh weight and dry weight. The research was conducted over a period of two months, with two treatments: P1: bioslurry 75 L/ha and P2: NPK 300 kg/ha, each replicated five times. The results showed that the fresh weight of plants in the bioslurry treatment was 5.95 kg, while the NPK treatment produced 5.89 kg. For dry weight, bioslurry resulted in 1.21 kg, slightly higher than NPK, which produced 1.18 kg. Although the differences between the two treatments were minor, bioslurry showed a slightly better performance in supporting the growth of elephant grass. Bioslurry, being an organic fertilizer, not only provides essential nutrients (N, P, K) but also improves soil structure and increases water retention, which is vital for plant growth. On the other hand, NPK fertilizer provides nutrients rapidly but does not contribute to long-term soil improvement. These findings suggest that bioslurry can be a more sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers, enhancing soil quality and supporting sustainable agriculture</strong></p>2024-12-13T20:45:50+07:00Copyright (c) 2024 AVES: Jurnal Ilmu Peternakan
