Description
Summary:Agroliteration is a group learning space that teaches people how to use technology to be more efficient in their farming activities. The study’s goals were to find out: 1) agroliteration in the Agro Innovation Park (Taman Agro Inovasi/Tagrinov) before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, and 2) redesign of Tagrinov agroliteration during the COVID-19 pandemic. Tagrinov, located in Bogor, Indonesia, is a showcase of technical advances in the concept of innovative garden utilization from the Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research and Development of the Ministry of Agriculture. The study makes use of Tagrinov observational data on agroliteration from 2018 to 2020. This finding revealed that Tagrinov’s agroliteration participants during the COVID-19 pandemic exhibited the following characteristics:1) technical training participants: government employees (64.84%), farmer women’s group (32.28%), and students (2.88%), 2) education participants: students (97.25%), the community (1.96%), and members of the Indonesian People’s Representative Council (0.79%), and 3) internship and research activities participants: colleges (100%). During the COVID-19 pandemic, agroliteration was redesigned to focus on three things: the beginning of independent fundraising through paid services, student participant services via the internet of things (IoT), and non-student participant services via: limiting numbers, maintaining distance, and the imposition of a face mask.
