<![CDATA[The development of goat agribusiness in Kubu Raya Regency faces various structural challenges that require a comprehensive understanding of the existing agribusiness system. This study aimed to analyze the condition of a sustainable goat agribusiness system in Kubu Raya Regency. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach based on secondary data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), the Plantation and Livestock Service of Kubu Raya Regency, relevant scientific literature, and limited interviews with key informants from related institutions. The agribusiness system was analyzed through five subsystems, namely input supply, production, processing, marketing, and institutional subsystems, complemented by land carrying capacity analysis as an indicator of ecological sustainability. The results showed that the production and input supply subsystems have considerable potential, as indicated by the increasing goat population, the availability of extensive vegetated peatlands as forage resources, and strong social capital reflected in the long-standing goat farming tradition among the predominantly Javanese community. However, the processing subsystem remains underdeveloped, the marketing subsystem is still largely traditional, and institutional support has not functioned optimally. Land carrying capacity analysis revealed that the current utilization rate is only 0.75% of the theoretical carrying capacity, indicating substantial opportunities for sustainable goat farming development in Kubu Raya Regency.]]>
