Abstract

Poultry litter is a habitat for microbe’s growth included various chicken gastrointestinal pathogens. Litter also absorb several compounds or gasses from outside of the poultry house that affects poultry health. Many studies found that the composted manure had more soil fertility which consists of many organic components. Thus, more complete nutrients and other growth factors in manure were found higher than chemical fertilizers (inorganic). It is suggested that the application of floor beddingcould improve poultry health and increase income from manure. The objective of this study was to measure the costof several types of floor bedding in poultry sheds.The partial budget was employed based on the literature study.The cost of the application and its related income were calculated. The calculation was modeled based on the poultry sheds then the poultry house. The study foundthat the partial budget analysis identified the findings lead to a strongly positive incentive for farmers to apply of floor bedding in their poultry farms. The incentive may drivepoultry farmers in West Java to pay attention to invest decent sheds to improve poultry health
