Abstract


The center of coconut sugar-producing in Banyumas Regency is Cilongok District. There are five villages with the most significant number of coconut sugar craftsmen: Langgongsari, Sudimara, Batuanten, Rancamaya, and Kasegeran. The existence of a coconut sugar business can be a means to reduce unemployment and a source of family income. This research is a qualitative descriptive study to analyze the sustainability of production in terms of the strengths and weaknesses of the craftsmen. There are 180 respondents, with the simple random sampling method. The results show the average age of craftsmen is 54 years, with an education level of 90% only in elementary school. The activity of being a coconut sugar craftsman is the main livelihood of all respondents, so they have a long experience in making coconut sugar with an average of 21 years. In carrying out their production activities, the craftsmen have a good work ethic and desire to improve the quality of production. However, to maintain the continuity of their business, they have several limitations, such as a decline in the regeneration of craftsmen, land ownership, the number of coconut trees, knowledge, capital, and dependence of prices and markets on buyers. This study implies that to maintain the sustainability of coconut sugar production, it is necessary to increase production and marketing empowerment through pro-craftsman policies, for example, the availability of adequate raw materials and guarantee of appropriate prices, so that it can be a driving force for the maintenance of regeneration of coconut sugar craftsmen.
