Abstract
Although the Green Revolution in Indonesia has shown an increase in theagricultural
production, a rapid marginalisation process among the farmers has taken place simultaneously.
This article aims to identify the role of Sekolah Lapang Petani (Farmer Field School), which is
one of the programs conducted byPengelolaan Hama Terpadu (Integrated Pest Management,
IPM). This program is conducted by the government in response to the negative impacts of the
Green Revolution that is consideredto be responsible in deteriorating the local knowledge and
the local wisdom techniques, the power of creative-innovation and the freedom of the farmers.
This study was conducted in two different sites in South Sulawesi, namely: Manjalling Village
(Gowa) and Soreang Village (Maros). Our informants are those who joined SLP-PHT program
in the two locations. They consistof 17 farmers; 5 of them are from Manjalling, while rests are
from Soreang. We triangulate, in-depth interview, observation, life history, and focus group
discussion (FGD) as our data collection methods.
The results showed that the implementation of SLP-PHT program in Manjallingand Soreang
has played an important role in the application process of the local knowledge and the farmers’
creative-innovative development in agricultural, such as productive, righteousness, adaptive,
and environmentally friendly.
Keywords: farmer field school, creativity, innovative, plant fertilizer and medicine.
