The results of the study show that (1) the role of farmer groups in rice farming is categorized as high, both as a learning class, cooperation facilities and production units (2) The results of the Determination Coefficient Test (R) of multiple linear regression analysis that R is 0.532 or 53.2% means that the percentage of contributions affects learning classes, cooperation facilities and production units. The results of the F Test show that the independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on the dependent variable. The results of the T Test show that learning classes (X1), cooperation facilities (X2) production units (X3) affect the role of farmer groups, proven by using the T Test.
