| Abstract | This research aims to develop farmer problems and solutions model using qualitative research methods. The primary data was collected from 13 local intellectuals from the North; the Northeast and the Central and Eastern regions through in-depth structured interview. The grounded theory was used to analyze qualitative data. The results showed that the farmer problems and solutions models are best explained by an integration of resource based view and core values theory. The models showed core values (lack of pursuit of knowledge; greed and overspending; and less willingness to work hard) are the key driving factors causing problems; and leading to process problems (high input; chemically based monoculture systems). Inappropriate governmental policies and poor physical capitals are identified as resources problems. The resulting economic outcome of farmer debt is due to high production cost and low product price. Therefore; the solutions to farmer problems must be deployed in systematic operations by paying attention to all interconnected factors. |
