Abstract


Abstract: In Pakis and Poncokusumo sub-districts, Malang Regency, the agricultural values, knowledge, and embeddedness are expected to be sustainable amid the social disasters. This research aimed to analyze how agricultural values, knowledge, and social embeddedness among farmers in Pakis and Poncokusumo sub-districts, Malang Regency, can sustain amid social changes. It involved economic Sociology and theoretical frameworks such as Giddens' structuration, Bourdieu's social capital, and Granovetter's social embeddedness. This qualitative research used in-depth interviews, observations, and literature resources. The findings showed that social capital bonds among stakeholders such as landowners, farm workers, and traders are crucial in maintaining collective agricultural values. Additionally, knowledge transmission relied heavily on the interplay between agents and social structures through cultural practices. The research strengthened the dimension of social embeddedness, which positions the economic and social orientations as not opposing entities. Transferring knowledge and preserving value in agriculture when dealing with social disasters required deliberate efforts to adapt and ensure the sustainability of the practice.
