Abstract

Large-scale development of chili cultivation highly requires social capital. On the contrary, an individual tendency that characterizes peri-urban citizens could be an obstacle. This study aimed to analyse the feasibility study of chili farming, the potency of community social capital, and the development strategy of chili commodities in peri-urban regions. It was conducted in Lemah Duhur Village, Caringin District, Bogor Regency in May–December 2019. The analytic descriptive method through farming economic analysis was used to interpret the data. The analysis of social capital elements, as well as the preparation of development strategies, were analysed using SWOT. The results of the economic analysis showed that chili cultivation is quite feasible to develop. The analysis of social capital consisting of trust, norm, and network pointed out that even though this community was from a peri-urban area, the people have good social capital. The elements that need developing in social capital are networks, norms, and social sanctions. The development strategy can be done by increasing the competence of farmers in cultivation, increasing added value, facilitating market networks and access to capital, and developing irrigation networks. Overall, the cultivation of chili commodities in peri-urban regions has the opportunity to be developed.
