Abstract
The disintegration of peasants' social, economic, and cultural systems, as well as environmental harm, have been facilitated by conventional agricultural models and the existence of the green revolution. The Serikat Petani Indonesia (SPI, Indonesian Peasants Union) has made agroecology a social movement issue in an effort to resist the capitalistic agricultural system and has become one of the milestones in the realization of food sovereignty. SPI's initiatives to persuade its members to adopt an agro-ecological model of agriculture rather than a conventional one, however, cannot be implemented effectively. There are still issues that need to be resolved before SPI member may adopt agroecology, despite the fact that instruction is being implemented on both a conceptual and practical level. As an illustration, the SPI base at Pamah Village, Serdang Bedagai Regency, North Sumatra is one instance where the program for agroecological application has not been successful. As a reflection on the problems that SPI member peasants encounter in implementing agroecological agriculture, the author is interested in conducting research to see and analyze the types of challenges peasants in Pamah Village face while adopting agroecology. This study adopts a qualitative methodology to accomplish its goals, and its data-gathering methods include participatory observations, in-depth interviews, literature and documentary studies, participatory observations, and a limited group discussion. The data is then examined using the Narrative Research Analysis approach after the field data has been collected. Based on the study's findings, it is known that the failure to adopt agroecological agricultural models as an alternative is a strategic issue brought on by low-intensity organizations in the grassroots sector, as well as the quality of efforts to stimulate the involvement of the peasants in analyzing the problems that are entrenched and to choose alternative goals that are also not fully achieved.
