Abstract
Smallholder farmers mostly maintain small-scale fattening beef cattle farms in Indonesia. The ownership system of beef cattle in smallholder farmers consists of the self-ownership system and the partnership system. This research study aims to analyze the factors that were affecting the profit of small-scale of the beef cattle farmers in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The research study conducted at 4 (four) regencies in Special Region of Yogyakarta, those are Gunung Kidul Regency, Bantul Regency, Kulonprogo Regency, and Sleman Regency, purposively. Respondents that became the sample of this research study were 240 persons, consisting of 120 self-ownership farmers and 120 partnership farmers fattening type; selecting the samples using the Quota Sampling method. Data were analyzed using Unit Output Price (UOP) Cobb Douglas Profit Function. The results showed that the profit of small-scale of beef cattle farmers with self-ownership systems in Special Region of Yogyakarta was higher than the beef cattle farmers with partnership system. Factors that influenced the profit of small-scale beef cattle farmers negatively included depreciation cost of barn and equipment, the price of calves (fattening cattle), the price of forage feed, price of concentrate feed, and wage labor. The added value of the five variables tends to reduce the profits obtained by the farmers. While the factors that influenced positively were the variable of the amount of beef cattle production, type of beef cattle, and cattle ownership system, the addition of the number and fulfillment of the three variables would increase the profit of beef cattle farmers.
