The idea emerge of techno-ecologic farming model considered by the narrow condition of land ownership in Bali, Java, Madura and others. While farmers really depend on agrucultural production means , such as fertilizer and feed from outside. Technoecologic farming model is an effort to integrate the "techno farming" with equiped technology and "eco farming" with environmentally friendly. In 2005 I was selected by Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research and Development Ministry of Agriculture (IAARD) to lead PRIMA TANI in Bali, it was a program of IAARD i.e Innovation of Pilot and Acceleration of Agricultural Technology Program, so called PRIMA TANI. So I conducted the program in Busungbiu Sub District of Buleleng. In this model, the main introduction is an integrated farming and livestock system, it could be coffee plantation, cocoa, paddy rice, crops, vegetables, etc. in the integration system, by product of livestock was processed to feed and the manure processed to fertilizer and biopesticide. Even before for the fertilizer some part processed to be energy resources. By this integration it would be a closed or circular production cycle, with the means of production from local resources. Thus, the means of production decreasing gradually and by the integration I could be new opportunities to deliver new product. In fact by this model the agriculture farming become efficient, more higher and varous production and also profitable. The most important is also produced the organic fertilizers, and environmental friendly due to there is no waste, and without chamical used.
