Summary: | The agricultural system in the watershed is mostly based on monoculture system. Where it has not been connected between farms that produce biomass, biomass processing industries, waste management, water utilization, energy generation, and soil conservation. This condition raises problems, for instance: (1) low productivity and quality of product, (2) un-used waste, and (3) dependence on external inputs. The coffee-livestock integration system is an approach that builds explicitly between biomass-producing agriculture, biomass processing industries, waste management, water use, energy generation, and soil nutrient conservation so that an integrated farming system (IFS) is sustainable. Even combines the crop farming system with livestock synergistically, that form an effective, efficient, and environmentally system, the level of its adoption is still low. The purpose of this study is to analyse the factors influenced adoption of the coffee-cattle integration system (CCIS) and formulate recommendations for its acceleration by using SWOT analysis. Result showed that the determinants of CCIS adoption are: farmer preference, financial resources, agro ecosystem, market incentives, as well risk and uncertainty. Acceleration of adoption at the farm level can be done through (1) assistance in implementation; and (2) provision of agricultural facilities and infrastructure as well as agricultural machinery equipment. |
