Abstract

Farmer groups are institutions formed by farmers based on shared interests, socio-economic backgrounds, and the potential of local resources, with the goal of improving the performance and productivity of their agricultural enterprises. The presence of these farmer groups is expected to enhance both productivity and farmers' income. This study aims to assess the role of farmer groups in galangal farming, calculate the level of production and income earned by farmers, and analyze the extent to which the role of farmer groups correlates with both production and income. The study was conducted in Sematang Borang Subdistrict, Palembang City, using a survey method and cluster sampling technique. The research population consisted of 101 farmers from five farmer groups, with a sample size of 81 farmers. Data analysis involved both primary and secondary data, processed through descriptive tabulation and Spearman’s Rank correlation analysis. The results showed that the average income from galangal farming reached IDR 101,859,912.71 per plot per year and IDR 67,242,556.74 per hectare per year. The role of farmer groups was classified as high and showed a positive and significant correlation with production (Rs = 0.734**) and income (Rs = 0.721**). There was a strong positive and significant correlation between production and income, with a correlation coefficient of Rs = 0.878**.
