| Abstrak/Abstract |
Due to the quantity and quality degradation of urban land for farming activity, the Yogyakarta City Government has started to conduct studies to prove the importance of developing an urban farming program. Based on the studies, it is known that implementing urban farming in the form of a household-base can be the solution to the urban land degradation issues. This program aims to recover the capability of urban land, that is currently limited, in providing food needs for the community. To reach these aims, this program has been designed on a household scale. Therefore, it is expected that the community can keep the household-based urban farming activities for sustainability in the future. Therefore, this research was conducted to investigate the community’s intention to adopt the technology in the household-based urban farming program and sustain the program. This research is located in two subdistricts, Kraton and Kotagede, which have already implemented the program well. The respondent was taken from two representative groups of each sub district, so the total number of respondents was 48 people—the research method used analytical descriptive while the collecting data method used survey. The survey shows that the technology application is influenced by farmers’ attitudes and the group role. Besides that, the technology application in household-based urban farming has significantly affected the sustainability of the program. |
