DOI: 10.22161/ijeab.71.5

Abstract:
The Corporate farming is a form of economic cooperation from a group of farmers with an agribusiness orientation through consolidation of expansive land management (Department of Agriculture, 2000). Spirit 45 Farmers Corporation Program which is located in Kel. Panrannuangku, Kec. North Polongbangkeng, Kab. Takalar which has focused on rice commodities since 2018 but in the field shows that the implementation of the program has not run optimally, therefore a study is needed to thoroughly understand the implementation of the program as an improvement material for further implementation or for the replication process in other areas. This study uses descriptive analysis to see the performance of all stakeholders involved in implementing the program. The results of the study show that the activities are not in line with the concept of integrated areas and corporations, farmers still carry out activities as individuals who are only responsible for their cultivated land and corporations have not been able to become institutions that are extensions of farmers' hands.
