This research was conducted in four different areas in Bogor municipality and regency, namely Cimahpar District, Situgede District, Benteng Village, and Purwasari Village. Survey method was used on 201 farmers selected purposively. The results showed that farmers’ perception was negative on government support in implementing sustainable agriculture system. Most of the farmers considered that government provided less support to the implementation of sustainable agriculture system (55.7%). Especially, in providing enough capital (65.7%), insurance on farmers’ business market (58.7%), insurance on the price of business production facilities (51.7%), and insurance on the market (sold with reasonable price) (50.2%). However, factors that were related to the farmers’ perception were formal education (rs = 0.150, P<0.05) and land area (rs = -0.154, P<0.05).
