<![CDATA[Hydroponic farming is a promising alternative to increase agricultural productivity and sustainability in Indonesia. In Pinrang district, the Lasinrang hydroponic community has successfully implemented this method, with farmer-to-farmer collaboration, knowledge sharing, and involvement in community activities forming a solid network of mutual support. Despite this success, lettuce farmers still face problems such as lack of effective cultivation knowledge, limited access to quality seeds and fertilizers, and constraints in obtaining profitable markets. Therefore, this study recommends overcoming these problems by strengthening social capital to increase the productivity of lettuce farmers in the Lasinrang Hydroponic community. This study aims to determine the effect of social capital both partially and simultaneously on the productivity of lettuce farmers in Lasinrang hydroponic community, Pinrang Regency.
