In an agricultural country like Indonesia, agricultural work is very important in supporting the community's economy, especially as a supplier of food, clothing, and housing for the entire population. In addition, most of the Indonesian people's jobs depend on rural areas. However, based on data released by BPS in 2021, it shows the Farmer's Exchange Rate in West Java Province is less than 100, which shows that income from selling agricultural products is unable to cover production costs and household consumption. This is because the quantity, quality, and continuity of agricultural products are not guaranteed. Through an issue-based design approach, the Agriculture hub project that carries the concept of community farming in the Lebak Muncang Tourism Village is carried out as an answer to existing agricultural problems. This facility is intended to support the empowerment and regeneration of farmers who will also be the main subject in the Lebak Muncang Tourism Village. In the context of agriculture, the concept of community farming introduces innovative ways to recreate a sense of community. It is also hoped that it can be dedicated to raising the standard of living of farmers, as well as to develop the potential for educational recreation facilities based on nature, culture and history.
