This study analyzed the performance and profitability of broiler production in a climate controlled system (CCS) operated by a state-owned academic institution under a contract growing scheme. Production efficiency such as average live weight (ALW), feed conversion ratio (FCR), and livability or harvest recovery (HR) of broilers under CCS in 11 growing cycles were analyzed and compared with broilers in conventional housing.  The financial viability of the CCS was examined using cost and return analysis.  All the data were subjected to t-test with uneven number of observation using the General Linear Model of Statistica for Windows Version 8, 2007.  Moreover, regression analysis was done to further determine the effects of type of housing on productivity and profitability.  Broilers under conventional and CCS housing system have similar ALW (P>0.05) of 1.63 kg and 1.65 kg, respectively, at 35 days.  Both of these values are higher than the standard set by the integrator.  However, FCR and HR of the broilers under CCS were significantly better (P<0.05).  They have more growth uniformity and cumulative livability than those in conventional housing.  With better FCR and HR, there is higher revenue per bird in CCS than in conventional housing, PHP 14.69 vs PHP 11.96.  Moreover, return over total expenses was significantly higher at 150% for CCS and 84% in conventional housing.  The higher productivity of broilers under CCS compensated for the higher cost of investment.
