The Initiation of healthy villages with tourism potential through the cultivation of oyster mushrooms with immunomodulatory properties

The Women Farmers Group at Padukuhan Gowok is a farmer group that can play a strategic role in strengthening the community's health and economy through oyster mushroom cultivation. Oyster mushrooms are only known to the general public as a common food ingredient; they are unknown for their immune-boosting capabilities. Mushroom production also often experiences crop failure due to lack of knowledge, environmental conditions in kumbung which are still affected by climate and weather, as well as pest disturbances in the form of insects that attack beglogs, resulting in low production capacity. The educational program for KWT Lestari members has the potential to raise knowledge by 31 points (or 56%) about the morphology and nature of mushroom growth and by 25 points (or 89%) about the health advantages of mushrooms. Oyster mushroom cultivation assistance is carried out through training and repair of kumbung facilities through renovation and installation of sprayers, but has not been able to increase production capacity. The initiation of the potential for mushroom picking tourism has been carried out by making a kumbung and mushroom cafe design as well as accepting the first visit of mushroom picking tourism.

INDEPENDENT WOMEN FARMERS BETWEEN MINORITIES AND THE POWER OF WOMEN BY FARMER WOMEN GROUP

AbstractThe relationship between men and women is dominated by men. Likewise in village society, in all spaces women become the second class. This paper describes group activities to resist the concept that has been perpetuated as a concrete manifestation of the ideology of feminism. This activity is carried out by the Women Farmers Group (KWT Karya Tani), which is located in Pengalusan Village, Mrebet District, Purbalingga Regency, Central Java. The study approach uses qualitative (ethnography) because it is more to do a more comprehensive study. KWT Karya Tani's agricultural products are several types of organic vegetables. Some of them are processed into sambal kucai, gethuk and peuyeum. From the results of group production and management, KWT won 1st place at the national level from the Ministry of Agriculture, which previously won 1st place in Purbalingga Regency in the yard competition. As subordinated subjects, women in this group can create a solid integration. In addition, they are located in Christian groups, while most of the village society are Muslim. There is a stigma that tends to show social boundaries on the basis of religion. This can further strengthen solidarity and social integration. Finally, at this point, KWT Karya Tani has resisted and deconstructed the power of patriarchy and majority.

SOSIALISASI BERSAMA KELOMPOK WANITA TANI KELURAHAN SRENGAT TENTANG PEMBUATAN PESTISIDA NABATI

The Women Farmers Group (KWT) of Sekar Taji are mostly housewives or farmers in Srengat Village, Srengat District, Blitar Regency. Located on Jl. Mayang Rt 01 Rw 08 Krebet Village environment 4. Has good potential for horticultural cultivation and ornamental plants. The beginning of the establishment of this group was due to the effect of soaring chili prices in 2016 which affected local farmers greatly, then the village head Inggit Budi Santoso took the initiative so that every family or house has its own chili plant at least 5 trees. Over time, this group received Orchid Flower droppings from the Department of Agriculture with the aim of increasing the family’s income. One of the problems with the Sekar Taji farmer group is the problem of marketing orchids and the presence of pests and pathogens. Control is usually carried out by farmers by spraying synthetic pesticides. In this socialization process, we provide an alternative, namely using plant-based pesticides that are more environmentally friendly, through training on the manufacture of plant-based pesticides. The methods used are consultation, training and application. The result of this socialization is an increase in knowledge and skills about the benefits and ways of making vegetable pesticides from plants around the house. Vegetable pesticides can reduce production costs and have potential as a home industry.

Women in family farming: Evidence from a qualitative study in two Portuguese inner regions.

The importance of family farming in food systems worldwide is recognized by different international bodies, as well as the leading role played by women and the inequalities they face in this sector of activity. The most recent data from Portugal highlight the importance of this type of agriculture in this Southern European country. In 2019, 68% of the total agricultural workforce in the country was concentrated in family farming, with almost half of them being women. This high permanence of women in agriculture is the result of a long process of feminization on this sector that is similar to other contexts. Despite this strong feminization of family farming, there are few studies that portrait agricultural activity from the women's viewpoint, since the voice of men is always predominant in all references. Based on the exploratory qualitative data from two focus groups, carried out in two Portuguese inner regions, we intend to address the perceptions and meanings of a small group of women farmers regarding their activity, the role taken by them in agriculture and the difficulties they experience. Issues such as changes in agriculture and the sexual division of labor will also be addressed in this article. Within these groups, women work in agriculture is perceived as long, solitary and uncertain. Also, the public/private dichotomy is evident, with decision-making and public places dominated by men. A prevalence of the discourse of "masculinization" still exists with certain tasks being attributed to men (e.g., operations with machinery). Younger women (34 and 40 years old) tend to overcome these gender differences choosing agriculture as a profession and healthy and sustainable life for their families.

The climate in Saribaye Village makes it possible to cultivate various types of plants, both food crops and horticultural crops. Problems that are often encountered in plant cultivation are pest attacks that damage crops, especially horticultural crops in the yard. The use of chemical pesticides is the mainstay of farmers in overcoming pests and diseases. On the other hand, the use of chemical pesticides threatens environmental health. One of the solutions offered is the use of plant-based pesticides that are environmentally friendly, inexpensive and easy to manufacture. Various types of plants that grow in the Saribaye Village environment have the potential to be used as raw materials for botanical pesticides. Farmers in Saribaye Village do not have the ability to independently make botanical pesticides. Therefore, training in the manufacture of botanical pesticides was a crucial thing that must be done. The training aims to improve farmers' skills in making botanical pesticides as alternative pesticides using the basic ingredients of gamal leaves and papaya leaves.
