Broiler Farmers' Income and Supply Chain Recovery in Anticipation of the Coronavirus Outbreak

Abstract

Covid-19 has become a pandemic. It negatively impacts various sectors and subsectors, including the livestock sub-sector that experienced income contraction and supply chain disruptions. This study aimed to analyze the broiler farmers’ income before and in the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, examine the marketing channels, recommend anticipatory measures to maintain broiler farmers’ income, and restore the distribution of broiler meat products. The study was conducted from July to August 2020 using primary data collected in 2016 in Bandung and Bogor regencies, involving 64 respondents implementing a purposive snowballing approach. The analytical method used is the revenue and costs analysis of broiler farming and supply chain analysis. The study results show that broiler farming was profitable and feasible in the independent pattern and internal and external partnership patterns. However, during the Covid-19 outbreak, farmers’ profits fell by 37%–49%. The Covid-19 explosion caused a decrease in demand and disruption of live bird and carcass storage and distribution. The government should conduct a low-market program by buying broilers from community farms and direct assistance programs in the form of chickens, cut DOC oversupply, absorb excess stocks into food reserves, and stabilize the price of broiler meat.
