The method of analysis performed is descriptive and nonparametric statistical analysis. The level of entrepreneurial agribusiness in general (regardless subsystems and commodities) showed that use of self-knowledge test tends in strong category (55%) and moderate (45%). A high percentage (> 50 %) in the strong category owned by the actors on the off-farm subsystem. Meanwhile, the level of entrepreneurship using of character test tends in the low category (63%) and relatively high (37%). This character test showed horticultural farmers tend to have entrepreneurial potential is higher than crops farmers.
