Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) Chicken is a selective range chicken with high egg production. This research aimed to determine the effect of environmental factors, i.e. wind speed, humidity, and temperature, on the productivity of chicken eggs Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) layer 45-48 weeks. The research was conducted in October 2020, located in Assessment Institute for Agricultural Technology of Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT). The data obtained by measurement and calculation of population data, egg production, and mortality. The result showed that the average environmental factors in wind speed, humidity, and temperature were 21.40 m/s, 79.50%, and 30°C. The average egg productivity, body weight, and KUB chicken mortality in the laying phase at 45-48 weeks were 33.56%, 1.684 kg, and four chicken/week. All environmental factors together affect the productivity of KUB chicken in Nusa Tenggara Timur.
