Abstract

Agriculture is one of the fields that still dominates Indonesia as an agricultural country. As a substantial actor in agriculture, many farmers have not met their daily needs. This study examines the quality of alternative business training models for farmworkers using a community empowerment system. This study is part of research and development focused on product quality testing. The training model that the researcher has designed is then tested on validity, practicality, and effectiveness. The participants involved in this study were farm labourers in 2 sub-districts in Wajo Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, namely Pammana and Tanasitolo sub-districts as many as 15 farm workers, two observers, and three agricultural experts. Furthermore, the instruments used in this study were: (1) validation sheet, (2) model implementation observation sheet, (3) farmworker response questionnaire, and (4) knowledge test. The data that has been collected is then analyzed quantitatively using SPSS 23.00 software. The study results show that the training model that this researcher has designed is valid, practical, and effective in increasing the knowledge of farmworkers and can be used for a broader range of users.
