dc.description.abstract | Jember Regency is one of the largest rice producing centers in East Java and is a rice development
area for East Java. Jember Regency has the largest average rice production in East Java, amounting
to 915,198 tons. Therefore, rice production in Jember Regency is able to provide the highest
contribution to National Production amounting to 1.381. In order to realize farmer empowerment in
Jember Regency, the provincial government of East Java has held an agromaritim upstream and
downstream agricultural program since 2017. However, this program has experienced bottlenecks in
its downstream program. This research uses a qualitative approach. Research location in Jember
Regency. Data collection techniques using in-depth interviews, observation and literature study. The
data analysis technique in this study was carried out in three stages, namely data reduction, data
presentation and drawing conclusions. The results of the data analysis show that there is a
determination that causes the program to fail, including the lack of support from the local government
as the program provider, the farmers' lack of commitment as program recipients, and the limitations
of the GAPOKTAN institution in supporting or supporting the program's operation. These three
determinations ultimately hamper the agromaritim upstream downstream program from reaching its
point of success. | en_US |
