Abstract

Cocoa is the leading product in the Sulawesi Corridor. In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, cocoa farmers are still trying to maintain and increase the productivity of their cocoa plants. Cocoa farmers maximize learning media to develop themselves and their groups. The focus of learning is how to plant, maintain, pests and diseases of cocoa plants, information on fluctuations in local, national and international cocoa prices. The research problem is the diversity of media and exposure to learning media for cocoa farmers, both individually and in groups. The goal is to increase the knowledge of cocoa farmers independently so that they can survive during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim is to increase the knowledge and motivation of cocoa farmers through the use of learning media as an effort to sustain cocoa production. The research method uses descriptive quantitative research type. Quantitative analysis focuses on analyzing the diversity of instructional media and its impact on cocoa farmers. The research subjects were 55 respondents from members of the cocoa farmer groups who were selected based on saturated samples. Data were collected through questionnaires on farmer groups who were the target of exposure to the diversity of instructional media in cocoa farming centers.
