Empowerment Model for Coffee Farmers in Dogiyai Regency, Papua: Effective Strategies for Capacity Building
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 06
Abstract
This study emphasizes the necessity of empowering coffee farmer organizations to improve agricultural capacity in Dogiyai Regency, Papua. However, this empowerment has yet to be optimized due to various restrictions. The study is based on the community empowerment theory, which covers enabling, strengthening, safeguarding, supporting, and maintaining elements. The research method adopted is qualitative, with a descriptive focus. The data were gathered by observation, interviews, and documentation with 25 informants. Data analysis involved data reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings demonstrate that local government policies prioritize infrastructure over improving farmer groups' capacities. This is shown by the low level of support for the community's potential and the culture of coffee farmer associations. Furthermore, a lack of problem-solving knowledge and farmer groups' confidence are hurdles. Local government protection is inadequate, and coffee grower groups face discrimination. The absence of helpful advice and a favorable environment for farming endeavors impedes effective empowerment. The proposed empowerment model entails providing researchers and extension services, helping with an emphasis on enabling aspects, altering knowledge, attitudes, and abilities, and boosting production and revenue. The goal is to empower and improve the welfare of coffee farmer groups in Dogiyai Regency.
