Abstract

The crisis affecting Indonesia's agricultural sector, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change, has underscored the need for innovation to sustain productivity and farmer welfare. This study aims to explore the role of hydroponic technology adoption in modernizing agriculture within the Women's Farming Group (KWT) Beta Maca in Babakan Village, using Everett Rogers' diffusion of innovation theory as the analytical framework. A qualitative approach was employed through in-depth interviews and participatory observations involving the leader, founder, and members of KWT. The findings indicate that the technology adoption process in KWT Beta Maca follows five key stages: initial knowledge, persuasion through outreach, decision-making, implementation of hydroponic practices, and confirmation of outcomes. Government-provided financial support and training proved to be crucial catalysts in this transition. Despite challenges such as skill adaptation and extreme weather conditions, hydroponic technology has demonstrated significant benefits in resource efficiency and increased income. In conclusion, the adoption of hydroponics in KWT Beta Maca not only enhanced productivity but also strengthened the economic well-being of farmers, proving that technology-based agricultural modernization can foster resilience and broader economic opportunities.
