Abstract

This study examines the transformation of livestock waste into economic and environmental value through innovation in goat farming. The study applies a qualitative case study approach using observation, interviews, and documentation of a Smart Composting System. The system utilizes leftover fermented corn-stalk and leaf silage, goat manure, horse manure, EM4, and brown sugar, supported by Internet of Things (IoT)-based monitoring of temperature, moisture, and NPK. The findings indicate that the innovation enables organic waste to be transformed into compost while generating operational data that can support more effective management decisions. The integration of environmental accounting further enables the identification of processing costs, potential economic value, and environmental benefits. The study demonstrates that waste management can be repositioned from a cost-oriented activity into a value creation strategy through the integration of resource recovery, digital technology, and environmental-economic measurement. The proposed approach provides a practical foundation for developing circular and sustainable business practices in goat farming.
