The study entitled "Value Chain Analysis of Chicken in the Province of La Union" aimed to<br/> present the profile and relationship dynamics of the actors involved in the value chain which<br/> included the input suppliers, producers and intermediaries; to identify the flow of costs,<br/> services, information and payment along the chain; to define activities, costs, returns and<br/> interconnections that adds value to the chain; and to recommend improvements and solutions<br/> based on the identified capabilities and constraints.<br/> The study used descriptive survey method, in which questionnaires were prepared and<br/> interviews were done to gather data on the key actors of the value chain. Information<br/> gathered includes demographic profiles, costs incurred, value adding activities, and problems<br/> encountered in the production and marketing of chicken products. Value-adding activities in<br/> each level of the value chain were determined and analyzed using the Agricultural Value<br/> Chain Ecosystem from the World Bank Group. Cost-return analysis, relationship dynamics,<br/> and profitability analysis were also done to analyze the value chains of the three chicken sub<br/>sectors in the province.<br/> The respondents included eight (8) broiler farms under contract growership and<br/> intermediaries which included 7 wholesalers, 7 local chicken roasters, 35 eatery owners, 12<br/> local restaurants owners, 18 fried chicken sellers and 10 night market vendors. For the layer<br/> sub-sector, seven (7) farms have been tapped, and intermediaries consisted of 9 wholesalers,<br/> 2 wholesalers cum retailer, 86 public market vendors, 21 individual sellers, and owners of23<br/> eateries, 30 sari-sari stores and 14 bakeries. The native chicken sub-sector involved 25<br/> backyard raisers, 4 retailers and 4 backyard raiser/ assembler/ retailer.<br/> The study revealed two chains for the broiler sub-sector, eight chains for the layer sub-sector<br/> and three chains for the native chicken sub-sector. The average years in operation for the<br/> broiler and layer sub-sectors were 13 years and 16 years respectively. The native chicken<br/> raisers, on the other hand, had an age mean of 51 years old. Initial investment was highest<br/> for the broiler farms at P7,000,000 because of the requirement of the integrators of having a<br/> tunnel vent for housing. Layer farming had P2,000,000 as the highest in initial investment,<br/> while native chicken raising only required P2,000.<br/> vii<br/>The study disclosed that 26.36% of chicken meat from broiler farms was sold in the same<br/> municipality where the farms were located, while 72.73% were sold in nearby municipalities.<br/> Approximately 21.65% and 47.10% of total egg production were sold in the municipality<br/> where the farms were located and nearby municipalities within La Union, respectively. The<br/> remaining 31.25% was transported to neighboring provinces of Benguet and Ilocos Sur. For<br/> the native chicken, 68.18% were raised and bought in the same municipality where they were<br/> selling it, while 31.82% have been outsourced from other municipalities.<br/> As to value added analysis, the intermediaries engaged in preparing ready-to eat meals from<br/> chicken products registered as having the highest values. These included eateries, local<br/> restaurants, night market vendors and fried chicken vendors.<br/> As to the profitability analysis, various players have different levels of positive net returns.<br/> But the intermediaries who prepared ready-to-consume meals gained the most per kilogram<br/> of broiler meat or per piece of egg. Broiler and layer farms and wholesalers have smaller net<br/> return per chicken and per egg, but gained the most because of the volume of products they<br/> were transacting.<br/> The identified issues, gaps, and weaknesses of the La Union chicken sector value chain<br/> included extreme hot weather, strict quality requirements, improper waste disposal, scarcity<br/> of day-old-chick, ready-to-lay pullets and native chicken, and dilapidated housing,<br/> Recommendations were formulated for various players in the three sub-sectors. For the<br/> contract growers under formal agreement, they should continue to abide with the terms and<br/> conditions set by the integrators. Broiler and layer farms with conventional housing for<br/> chicken must find ways on how they can have a tunnel vent-type for the flocks.<br/> Intermediaries for both chicken meat and eggs must invest in facilities and equipment to<br/> ensure the quality of the chicken products. Native chicken raisers must adapt an<br/> entrepreneurial mindset as the potential of chicken in the market is high.<br/> Interventions by the government would include capacity building, financial support and<br/> research and development which is applicable to all the three sectors, as the product is a<br/> commodity and would help ensure food supply stability and provide employment. |
