Abstract
This study aims to determine the input variables affecting broiler production, the level of technical efficiency achieved breeders and sources of technical inefficiency causes. This research was conducted in Malang East Java Indonesia with a sample of 55 broiler breeder with a pattern closed house system (CHS). The results showed that the variables affecting broiler production with patterns of closed house system is variable poultry (DOC), feed and medicine (drugs, vaccines and vitamins). The level of technical efficiency is achieved breeders ranged from 0.732 to 0.987 with an average of 0,929 broiler farms and businesses are located at the level of positive decreasing returns to scale. Variables business experience, number of dependents as the root cause of inefficiency. Keywords: Broiler production, stochastic frontier, closed house syste
