Abstract
Chicken farming is one part of the agricultural sector that is developing in Indonesia. This has led to a high level of competition. Jimnys Farm is one of the poultry farms that manage the breeding, hatching, and raising of chickens. The problem faced by these farms is the absence of productivity measurements that result in a lack of competitiveness of farms. This study aims to measure the level of productivity of farms using the Craig Harris method, analyzing the causes of decreasing productivity using the Fishbone diagram and proposing increased productivity using the Fuzzy - Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Based on productivity measurements using the Craig Harris method the lowest total productivity value was obtained in May 2019 with a value of 0.66. That is due to an increase in feed purchases and energy consumption. Meanwhile, the highest total productivity value was found in March 2019 with a value of 1.22 due to the high level of market demand. The fishbone diagram method analyzes problems in labor factors and energy utilization as the main causes of decreasing productivity. Meanwhile, the proposed improvement using fuzzy AHP that can be applied is to make energy-efficient movements, periodic control, counseling, and modification of the incubator.
