Exploring the Rawa Lebak Agricultural Method in Indonesia: Potential, Practices, and Sustainability

ABSTRACT

The Rawa Lebak agricultural method, used to cultivate crops in Indonesia’s swampy, lowland regions, presents unique challenges and opportunities for food production. This research explores the characteristics of Rawa Lebak lands, the classification system based on water depth and flooding duration, and the technological innovations and farming practices applied to optimize productivity. The paper also discusses the sustainability and environmental impacts of these practices, including water management techniques and the potential for further agricultural development in these areas. By examining the integration of traditional and modern agricultural methods, this paper aims to provide insights into how Rawa Lebak can be utilized to meet Indonesia’s growing food security needs. Read More
