Abstract
The sustainability of Alabio duck (Anas platyrhynchos Borneo) farming in South Kalimantan is increasingly at risk, as reflected in a population decline. This study aimed to identify and analyze the key factors influencing its sustainability. The research was conducted from February to April 2024 in five purposively selected sub-districts, using primary data from interviews with 60 farmers and key informants, complemented by secondary data from government agencies and relevant literature. Data were analyzed with a modified RAPFISH approach (Rap-Duck), supported by leverage analysis to determine the most sensitive attributes (key factors) across each dimension. The results identified fifteen key factors across five dimensions: ecological (housing location distance, waste utilization, biosecurity), economic (ease of marketing, distribution range, business feasibility), social (research frequency, alternative farming options, frequency of conflict), technological (availability of incubation, reproduction, and waste processing technologies), and institutional (membership in livestock groups, policy transparency, presence of extension agencies). These factors highlight priority areas for intervention and provide a foundation for targeted strategies to strengthen the sustainability of Alabio duck farming.
