Abstract

This study examines the strategic management of agrarian reform access arrangements and their role in improving the social welfare of agrarian communities in Pesurungan Lor Subdistrict, Tegal City, Indonesia. The research aims to evaluate the implementation of access arrangement programs, identify strategic challenges, and formulate improvement strategies for sustainable agrarian development. A qualitative case study approach was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving stakeholders such as the Agrarian Reform Task Force (GTRA), local government, farmer groups, and community business actors. Data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, complemented by a SWOT analysis to formulate strategic recommendations. The findings indicate that although the agrarian reform program has improved land tenure security and established local economic institutions, its implementation remains largely administrative and has not yet fully integrated strategic management principles. Weak coordination among stakeholders, limited business capacity, inadequate monitoring and evaluation systems, and exposure to market and production risks constrain the program’s effectiveness. The study concludes that strengthening multi-stakeholder collaboration, risk management, business capacity development, and multidimensional welfare evaluation is essential to transform agrarian reform access arrangements into a sustainable strategy for improving the long term socio economic welfare of agrarian communities
