<![CDATA[Program pupuk bersubsidi merupakan salah satu kebijakan pemerintah dalam mendukung peningkatan produktivitas pertanian melalui penyediaan pupuk dengan harga yang terjangkau bagi petani. Keberhasilan implementasi kebijakan tersebut sangat dipengaruhi oleh efektivitas penyaluran di tingkat desa, sehingga pemerintah desa memiliki peran strategis sebagai penghubung antara pemerintah, penyuluh pertanian, kelompok tani, dan petani penerima manfaat. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis peran Pemerintah Desa Kanonang Lima dalam menunjang efektivitas penyaluran pupuk bersubsidi. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi terhadap pemerintah desa, penyuluh pertanian, ketua kelompok tani, serta petani penerima pupuk bersubsidi. Analisis data menggunakan teori peran Bruce J. Biddle yang meliputi indikator expectation, identities, dan behaviors. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah desa telah menjalankan fungsi koordinasi, pendataan petani melalui RDKK, sosialisasi kebijakan, serta fasilitasi penyelesaian berbagai kendala distribusi pupuk. Namun efektivitas penyaluran masih dipengaruhi keterbatasan kuota pupuk bersubsidi, keterlambatan distribusi, dan perlunya pembaruan data penerima secara berkala. Penelitian merekomendasikan peningkatan koordinasi antarinstansi, optimalisasi pemutakhiran data petani, peningkatan sosialisasi, serta penguatan pengawasan distribusi agar penyaluran pupuk bersubsidi menjadi lebih efektif.

ABSTRACT The subsidized fertilizer program is one of the Indonesian government's policies aimed at improving agricultural productivity by providing affordable fertilizers for farmers. The effectiveness of this policy largely depends on the distribution process at the village level, where the village government plays a strategic role in coordinating stakeholders and ensuring proper implementation. This study aims to analyze the role of the Kanonang Lima Village Government in supporting the effectiveness of subsidized fertilizer distribution. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving village officials, agricultural extension officers, farmer group leaders, and beneficiary farmers. Data analysis was conducted using Bruce J. Biddle's Role Theory, consisting of expectation, identities, and behaviors. The findings indicate that the village government has performed important roles in farmer registration through the Farmer Group Definitive Needs Plan (RDKK), coordination with agricultural extension officers, dissemination of information, and facilitation of problem solving during fertilizer distribution. Nevertheless, several obstacles remain, including limited fertilizer quotas, delays in distribution, and the need for regular beneficiary data updates. The study recommends strengthening institutional coordination, improving beneficiary data accuracy, enhancing program socialization, and reinforcing distribution supervision to improve the effectiveness of subsidized fertilizer distribution.
