Abstract

Broiler chickens are known for their high productivity, relatively short harvesting period, and efficient feed conversion. These advantages make broiler farming highly potential for further development. This study aims to analyze the comparison of income, production cost efficiency, and the Break Even Point (BEP) between broiler chicken farms using close house and open house systems under partnership schemes in Medan City. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method, with data collected through interviews and direct observations from several partner farms. Data analysis included the calculation of fixed costs, variable costs, total production costs, income, business efficiency, and BEP for price and production. The results showed that the close house system achieved higher income and production efficiency compared to the open house system due to better environmental control and more efficient feed utilization. The BEP price for the close house system was Rp19,695.33 per kilogram, while that for the open house system was Rp18,838.33 per kilogram. Although the BEP of the close house system was higher, it produced more uniform chickens, lower mortality rates, and more stabel profits. Based on these findings, the close house system is recommended for farmers with sufficient capital and profitability in the long term.
