Abstract

The contribution of the agricultural sector is highest compared to other sectors in Buleleng district, but the level of welfare of garlic farmers is still low. There are still many farmers who work off-farm to support their families. This study examined the role of subak as a traditional institution in Bali in the welfare of garlic farmers in Buleleng Regency, and reviewed the influence of farmer competence in improving their welfare. The results of the study found that both variables, namely subak and farmer competence, had an effect on the welfare of garlic farmers in Buleleng district. The role of subak in overcoming problems faced by farmers, and the ability of subak to overcome problems that occur among farmers was able to increase farmer productivity which lead to an increase in farmers’ income. Meanwhile, the competence of farmers in the adoption of information technology must be continued to be improved to assist the production process and post-harvest marketing of garlic.
