Abstract

It becomes a dilemma when on the one hand to meet market needs, people massively utilize the environment and on the other hand it causes damage, especially in agriculture. There needs to be an appropriate problem approach to overcome this. The purpose of this research is to develop a strategy model for implementing integrated organic farming based on circular agriculture. This research uses quantitative methods with sequential exploratory design. This design begins with quantitative research first, then qualitative with the aim of completing the discussion with Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis. The economic dimension has the greatest weight with a value of 0.381. This indicates that in realizing organic farming integrated with Circular Economy, the first thing that needs to be focused on is the economic dimension by making production cost efficiency (Rank 1; GW 0.118). The results bring innovation in the world of research and novelty as a form of environmentally friendly production cycle and reduces waste and is useful for reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Not only that, organic farming by adopting a circular economic system can also create added value to production. Such as compost and biogas energy. The implications in this study can realize policy recommendations for food security, farmer empowerment, and global sustainability. © 2025 by the author(s).
