Abstract
This study aims to describe the cooperative-based broiler agribusiness partnership model and the role of the partnership authority as an alternative solution to improve the performance of the broiler agribusiness partnership system in increasing the income of partner farmers. This research was conducted in South Sulawesi with a quantitative descriptive approach based on expert judgment. The results of the study show that the cooperative-based broiler chicken agribusiness partnership model is a partnership development model in which the role of the core company that has been controlled by livestock production facility producers is expected to experience a balance change set by the partnership authority. With the cooperative-based partnership model, the position of farmers who have only been and enjoying income in the farming sub-system will have the opportunity to obtain a share of income in the upstream sector through the distribution of the remaining business results from cooperative membership so that the potential for increased income is wider. Thus theoretically, if the concept runs well, it is expected that it will be a solution to the problem of developing broiler chicken agribusiness partnerships so far that seem unable to be controlled by existing institutions and unable to provide broad income increases for partners and their stakeholders, of course assuming that the concept works ideally with the support of all components involved in it without the intervention of political behavior as has been feared so far where a number of parties accuse political interests playing behind this industry.
