Abstract

Padaasih Village, located in Garut Regency, has been designated as a milkfish processing center. However, a significant portion of milkfish processors in the village, amounting to 24.31%, are categorized as underprivileged families. This study aims to analyze the social and economic relationship between milkfish suppliers and processors and explain how the implementation of the Empowerment strategy through cooperative establishment planning can improve the situation. The research was conducted on 42 milkfish processors at the Di Asih Village Milkfish Processing Center in Psirwangi District, Garut Regency, West Java, using a mixed method approach that included Participatory Rural Appraisal and Data Envelopment Analysis. The research findings indicate that: 1) new suppliers have more organized and disciplined business operations, while the milkfish sales market in Padaasih Village operates as a free market, leading to a shift in focus from old to new suppliers, and 2) most processors have low levels of efficiency and income, despite the potential for good milkfish sales. The study concludes that cooperatives could help improve the efficiency and income of processors, in addition to the skills they already possess.
