摘要：INSTITUTIONAL FOR DAIRY CATTLE FARMING CLUSTER IN MALANG REGENCY. Institutional farmers become one of the ideal facilities to empower dairy farmers. The strategy considered effective in developing dairy cattle agribusiness is through a cluster-based regional institutional approach. This study aims to identify the institutional profile of the dairy farming cluster cluster in Malang Regency.
