Abstract

Balunijuk Village is one of the centers of vegetable production on Bangka Island. Almost all of the farmers in Balunijuk Village depend on chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides which are not environmentally friendly. The implementation of the LEISA (Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture) system is a form of concern for the environment, but its implementation is still hampered by the readiness of human resources. This study aims to: (1) find out the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats faced by farmers in crop cultivation in Balunijuk village, (2) alternative strategies to empower millennial farmers to increase farmers income. This research was conducted in March-June 2022. The community empowerment strategy applied in this study was the application of the LEISA concept. The research was conducted using the methods of observation, interviews, and experiments. The respondents involved were 25 farmers. The results showed that the application of the LEISA concept could reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides. The use of organic fertilizers, biological pesticides and LEISA cultivation techniques has a positive influence and raises awareness of farmers to produce safe agricultural products. The implication is that there is an increase in the number of millennial farmers in vegetable cultivation referring to the LEISA concept.
