Abstract

Coffee is one of the leading commodities in the plantation subsector because it has market opportunities, both domestically and abroad. Gayo Coffee (English: Gayo Coffee) is a variety of arabica coffee that is one of the leading commodities originating from the Gayo Plateau. Gayo Coffee has received Fair Trade Certified™ from the International Fair Trade Organization on May 27, 2010, and has also received an IG (Geographical Indication) certificate submitted by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham) Republic of Indonesia. People living in the Gayo highlands until now live dependent on coffee, butuntil now there are still problems experienced by gayo coffee farmers, such as the condition of coffee selling prices that are still unstable, and tend to plummet. Therefore, the problems experienced by gayo coffee farmers should be accommodated in a law, especially at the regional level. So that problems that occur like this are not experienced continuously and protracted by coffee farmers from year to year. Based on the background that has been described, the formulation of the problem in this study is what things must be contained in Qanun so that can it provide protection for the management of gayo arabica coffee in Central Aceh Regency? The research method used in this study is normative juridical research, which is carried out through literature studies that examine (mainly) secondary data in the form of laws and regulations, or other legal documents, research results, assessment results, and other references. The results showed that the things that need to be contained in Qanun protection for the management of gayo arabica coffee include arrangements about gayo arabica coffee ecosystem, gayo coffee commerce and cultivation, international cooperation, coffee research and education centers, customary institutions related to the protection and management of gayo arabica coffee, tourism and coffee villages, Geographical Indication certification, and Coffee Regionally Owned Enterprises (BUMD). The suggestion from the researcher is that Central Aceh Regency should have a regulation in the form of Qanun which regulates the protection and management of Gayo Arabica Coffee, because this area is an area that is a source of coffee and has become the lifeblood of the people in Gayo.
