Abstract

The aim of this study was to forecast the price of broiler with the broiler price which farmers sold from all farms in Thailand collected 103 months by the Office of Agricultural Economics since January, 2007 to July, 2015. Two methods employed in forecasting the price of broiler were Box-Jenkins and exponential smoothing with           an adaptive response rate of Trigg and Leach. The study results indicated Box-Jenkins was the suitable method for forecasting the price of broiler with the model of ARIMA(2,1,0) Keywords : Broiler, Box-Jenkins , exponential smoothing with an adaptive response rate of Trigg and Leach
