Poverty, population growth, environmentally friendly agriculture and environmental degradation are increasingly being considered as focal points for research and development. In order to develop environmentally friendly farming in complex mixed cropping-livestock systems at the village level, the goal of this study is to economic study for biogas and bioslurry utilization on production of dairy and horticulture integrated farming system (IFS) system in Tutur Nongkojajar, Indonesia. The research result are (1) The largest contribution subsystem in dairy-horticultural farming system revenue is dairy cattle farming about 46.54%, while contibution both of biogas and bioslurry are 2.17 and 3.46 percent. Contribution of biogas is still a bit, because the habits of households using biogas is still unfamiliar or still not accustomed than using kerosene or LPG (liquid petroleum gas) fuel. In the other aspects, forage farm revenue greater than horticulture farm revenue, because most farmer’s land is planted forage for support the main farming activities of dairy farming; (2) Total forage fodder (HMT) and horticulture plant waste feed provides significant contribution to the dairy farming revenue (PDSP); (3) Used biogas production value (PBG) is influenced significantly by the need (demand) for gas per household (KBTG). Gas usage per household (KBTG) significantly influenced by the need (demand) for gas per household (KBTG) and cost of used LPG (LPG); and 4) Organic fertilizer revenue (PPO) significantly influenced by the ability of capital (MDL) and processing cost of organic fertilizer (BPO), the smaller the ability of capital then farmers will increase utilize organic fertilizer. And organic fertilizer needs (KBTPO) significantly influenced by horticultural crop revenue (PTH). © 2015, Fundacion CIPAV. All rights reserved.
