Abstract: MACATANGAY, YOLANDA MENDOZA, "JASMIN POULTRY FARM: A CASE STUDY." B.S. Thesis, Agricultural Economics, Don Severino Agricultural College, March, l999. Adviser: Miss Lorna V. Alcones. This study was conducted to determine the following: (a) management problem of Jasmin Poultry Farm; (b) profitability and viability of the farm; (c) marketing system and market channels; and (d) recommend possible solutions to the identified problems. The profitability of the farm was determine by computing the net income and comparing the computed return on investment with the cost of capital. Results showed that the return on investment was higher than the cost of capital. This implied that the farm was able to generate acceptable returns on the farm business. The high return on investment was attributed to the good management practices employed on the farm, cooperation of caretaker and laborers, and the sufficient supply of birds and other raw materials. However, in 1988, the return on investment decreased due to a lower 45 percent compared to 101 percent. The decline was due to damages caused by unfavorable weather conditions and attack of pest and diseases. Measures should be undertaken in order to improve the performance of the firm. Therefore, the following are suggested: 1. enter into a contract buying scheme with San Miguel Corporation; and (2) intergrate broiler with egg production. And to improve production efficiency which was greatly reduced by cannibalism, measures were re-commended. These include the need to: (a) cut off one half to third of the upper beak, (b) purchase metal appliances and attach them to the beaks as the pullets are placed in the laying house, (c) allow plenty of feeders and floor space, (d) provide good ventilation, (e) give fresh green feeds or dry green alfalfa hay, (f) feed whole oats to growing pullets and laying hens, (g) darken the windows and nests, and (h) delouse the birds and disinfect the matters.
