Abstract

Ornamental plants are cultivated or grown for their aesthetic value, including the beauty of their flowers, leaves, or the entire plant. These plants are commonly found in home gardens or yards. The development of ornamental plant farming requires the role of agricultural institutions. Agricultural institutions play crucial role in modernization of agriculture. This study aims to understand institutional system, the role of agricultural institutions, and the impact of the Tani Makmur Farmer Group Association on ornamental plant farmers in Nglurah Village. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach in Nglurah Village. Informants were selected using purposive and snowball sampling techniques. The study involved 14 informants, including farmers group association stakeholders, agricultural officers, and ornamental plant traders. Validity was ensured through source and method triangulation, and data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman analysis method. The results showed that Nglurah Village has an institutional system that supports the sustainability of ornamental plant farming. Farmers group association in Nglurah Village has procedures, management, and roles. Farmers group association in Tawangmangu Sub-district plays various roles in developing ornamental plant farming, including acting as a liaison between farmer groups and the government, providing farming capital, offering information or facilitation to groups, and establishing partnerships with other business units. These roles have social impacts on farmers, such as improved relationships and harmony, as well as economic impacts, including easier access to capital. There is a need to enhance each institution to ensure that the management system operates more effectively and achieves the goals of the Tani Makmur Farmer Group Association.

Abstract

The sustainable management of natural resources is crucial for maintaining ecosystem sustainability and ensuring long-term fulfillment of basic needs. Farmers in Beruk Village, residing in the upstream area of the Watershed (DAS), are able to meet their basic needs through farming on steep landslide-prone land, which should ideally be designated as conservation areas. The research aims to examine integrated farming practices, assess local institutional support in conservation activities, and identify the sustainability of conservation-based farming efforts. The study employs a qualitative method, conducted in Beruk Village, Jatiyoso Sub-district, Karanganyar Regency. Fifteen informants were selected using purposive and snowball sampling methods. Data analysis utilized the interactive inductive analysis approach by Miles and Huberman. The research findings indicate that farmers in Beruk Village practice integrated farming systems that combine food, feed, and fertilizer concepts. Local institutional support from Beruk Village includes active participation of members in various conservation activities. The study concludes that farmers in Beruk Village implement integrated farming systems combining food, feed, and fertilizer concepts, but not all farmers apply conservation principles in their farming practices. The study recommends enhancing education and intensive training for farmers on the benefits and techniques of implementing conservation practices. This could be achieved through collaboration with educational institutions, local governments, and non-governmental organizations.
