(53.33%), 100% of land ownership is privately owned, most of the
farmers' land area is between 2,000-5,000 m2 (50%), farmers'
incomes are mostly around Rp. 2,000,000-3,0000.00 (43.3%),
farmers' internet access time to find information about coffee is mostly
around 1 hour/day (80%). The age of the respondent is one of the
factors that influence the activities of farmers in doing farming and can
be used as an indicator of whether or not farmers are productive.
Based on the results of the study, it was found that the average age
of the respondent farmers was 40 years. Thus, most of these farmer
respondents are of productive age. According to Rusli [5], a person's
productive age ranges from 15-64 years.
Farmer education level is the number of years the respondent has
undergone formal education. Based on the results of the study, it was
found that the largest number of respondent farmers were at the level
of High School Education (SMA) as many as 16 respondents
(53.33%). The length of time being a farmer is one of the descriptions
of the ability of farmers to do farming. Based on the results of the
study, it was found that on average they are landowners and have
been farming and have been in the membership of farmer groups for
5 years. This shows that the respondent farmers have had enough
experience in farming. The area of agricultural land is one of the
factors that affects the size of the amount of production and affects the
income that will be obtained by farmers. Based on the results of the
study, it was found that the average coffee farmer has a land area of
0.5 hectares as many as 30 people who are included in the narrow
classification [6]. The use of the internet by farmers to find information
about coffee is mostly around 1 hour/day (80%). This influences
increasing the knowledge of farmers about coffee.

The results of the questionnaire from the perception of the
Barongmulya Farmer Group regarding the amount of production to the
