Abstract
This research explains an increase in migration flow of the Indonesian farmer that occurs as a result of climate change’s impact. Crop failure has disrupted the livelihoods of the population, so they have to do coping strategies to fit their livelihood. The explanation in this research is to understand the coping strategy of Indonesian farmers in dealing with climate change. Temporary migration is the last battle that can be done by farmers. This research applied a qualitative method to explore the coping strategy of the farmer with data from in-depth interviews, FGDs and observation. The results showed that the farmer had made several coping strategies for climate change. When the harvest fails, farmers migrate temporarily to the nearest town. The types of work carried out by farmers are very diverse, including trading and construction. Temporary migration is a final choice for survival and fulfil their livelihood. The ability to cope itself is influenced by various factors, such as gender, age, social capital, social networks, and the level of knowledge of the community.
