Abstract

A study on the tendency (preference) of farmers in the application of the six proper principles (P6T) in the application of pesticides to conventional farming communities has been carried out in several villages in Tanjungsari Sumedang District. The research objectives were (1) to describe the level of farmers’ tendency in implementing P6T, (2) to find factors that influence the tendency of farmers to apply P6T, and (3) to find strategies to increase the tendency of farmers to apply P6T. This study applies a survey method to farming communities that have participated in the Integrated Pest Management Field School (SLPHT) program with 63 respondents from 105 farmers, determined using the Slovin formula with an error of 10%. The data collected were independent variable (X) consisting of: internal factors (X1) and external factors (X2), while the dependent variable (Y) is preference. Data collection was carried out by direct interviews with respondents using a questionnaire that was first tested for validity and reliability. The results showed that the respondents’ internal factors had a significant effect (p < 0.01) on preferences, while external factors significantly (p < 0.05) on farmers’ preferences in the application of P6T.
