- Abstract
This study was to determine the factors that affect the cattle prices during the year-end holiday season in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The study used 266 cattle transacted at Ambarketawang Animal Market and Mancasan Slaughterhouse in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This research was carried out using a survey method and direct observations with prepared questionnaires. The data obtained were analyzed using a multiple regression analysis. The dependent variable was cattle price per head that successfully had been transacted at Ambarketawang Animal Market and Mancasan Slaughterhouse in Yogyakarta during the 2016 year-end holiday season. The independent variables were the live weight estimation, age estimation, number of cattle slaughtered in the slaughterhouse, moment, sex, breed, and location of transaction. The results showed that the independent variables, namely the live weight estimation, age estimation, number of cattle slaughtered in the slaughterhouse, moment, sex, breed, and location of transaction showed a very significant effect on cattle price per head. Partially, live weight estimation, moment, and sex showed a positive and very significant effect on cattle price per head. It can be concluded that cattle price per head will increase if the live weight estimation is higher during the year-end holiday season, and the sex is male (bull)
