| Summary: | Infrastructure development which includes the development of national connectivity
is believed to be one of the answers to the problem of inequality in Indonesia. As a
manifestation, the government is developing infrastructure in the form of the Trans
Sumatra Toll Road (JTSS). Through the construction of the JTTS infrastructure
which began in Lampung Province, it is hoped that there will be an increase in
competitiveness, as well as suppression of economic costs. Lampung Province is the
fifth largest rice producer in Indonesia or the first on the island of Sumatra.
Lampung Province as one of Indonesia's rice granaries, hopes that this goal can also
be felt by farmers. However, during the JTTS development process, there were
negative impacts such as disturbing the farmers' irrigation water system, resulting in
crop failure. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the impact caused by
the construction of toll road infrastructure on the socio-economic conditions of
farmers in Ujung Gunung Village. This study used descriptive analysis and gap
analysis with data collection methods including a questionnaire of 85 respondents
and interviews with 7 gapoktans and the Department of Agriculture. The variables
used in this study are employment, education, and income as well as the benefits of
the toll road itself. Based on the results of the analysis, it is known that the farmers
feel the benefits of toll roads in the form of cost and time savings, smooth traffic flow
and distribution of goods and services without any significant changes to socioeconomic conditions, but toll rates are still considered too expensive and roads are
not smooth. Therefore, BPJT managers must maximize toll road maintenance and
reconsider toll rates so that the benefits of toll roads can be fully enjoyed. |
