Summary:Various poultry diseases, particularly of chickens could cause a great economic loss in poultry farming. This paper discusses various qualitative economic losses caused by particular diseases in chickens based on observations at 30 broiler farm and 30 layer farms in Java. Most diseases found in the fields were in the group of respiratory diseases, digestive diseases, and immunosuppresive diseases. Losses by these diseases were closely related to incidence of mortality, growth and production inhibition. Indirect economic losses could be caused by the increase of costs to overcome such diseases or by other operational costs. The magnitude of losses were highly influenced by animal age, rate of mortality, price of production materials, management and other effects on the animals Berbagai penyakit unggas, khususnya ayam, dapat menyebabkan kerugian ekonomis yang besar pada suatu usaha peternakan. Makalah ini menguraikan secara kualitatif berbagai kerugian yang timbul akibat penyakit tertentu pada ayam berdasarkan pengamatan pada peternakan broiler dan layer (masing-masing 30) di Jawa. Penyakit-penyakit yang merugikan dan sering ditemukan di lapangan adalah kelompok penyakit pernafasan, pencernaan dan yang bersifat imunosupresif. Kerugian yang timbul erat hubungannya dengan adanya kematian, gangguan pertumbuhan, atau produksi. Kerugian ekonomis yang tidak langsung dapat disebabkan oleh peningkatan biaya penanggulangan penyakit dan biaya operasional lainnya. Besarnya kerugian yang timbul sangat dipengaruhi oleh umur ayam, tingkat mortalitas, harga sapronak/pronak, kondisi manajemen dan jenis efek yang timbul pada ayam
