Abstract
This study investigates the socio-economic profile of dairy cattle farmers in the agropolitan area of Tulungagung Regency, focusing on smallholder dairy farming in a developing country context. The research aimed to explore key factors such as the age, education, income, and farming practices of dairy farmers and assess their implications for local livelihoods and rural development. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a descriptive survey design and purposive sampling to gather data from six villages in the agropolitan area. The findings revealed that dairy farming is a primary livelihood for the majority of farmers, with an average milk production of 44 liters per day. Most farmers have extensive farming experience, but they face challenges such as limited access to capital and fluctuating feed prices. The study emphasizes the importance of improving the socio-economic conditions of dairy farmers through better access to education, financial support, and sustainable farming practices. The results highlight the potential of dairy farming to contribute to local economic growth and poverty reduction in developing regions.
