Indonesia adalah negara berkembang yang ekonominya sangat bergantung pada
sektor pertanian, salah satunya adalah hortikultura. Hortikultura berperan penting sebagai
sumber penghasilan bagi masyarakat, memenuhi kebutuhan nutrisi, serta berkontribusi pada
pendapatan negara dari sektor non-mineral. Namun, masih banyak tantangan dalam mencapai ketahanan pangan, mulai dari akses lahan yang terbatas, minimnya modal, hingga
penggunaan input pertanian yang belum optimal, terutama bagi para petani skala kecil. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, pemerintah meluncurkan Program Pekarangan Pangan
Lestari (P2L) yang bertujuan mendorong penggunaan lahan pekarangan untuk meningkatkan ketahanan pangan dan pendapatan rumah tangga. Saat ini, program P2L telah mencakup
ribuan kelompok tani di berbagai daerah, salah satunya di Kecamatan Tadu Raya. Program
ini menerapkan pendekatan berbasis masyarakat, dilengkapi pelatihan, serta pemberdayaan
Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT) agar masyarakat menjadi lebih mandiri dan produktif dalam
memenuhi kebutuhan pangan yang sehat dan berkelanjutan.
Penelitian ini dilakukan di Kecamatan Tadu Raya, Kabupaten Nagan Raya, dengan
mengambil objek utama Program P2L yang dikelola oleh KWT. Lokasi penelitian dipilih
secara purposive, yaitu pada desa-desa yang sudah aktif melaksanakan P2L. Penelitian
menggunakan metode campuran, yaitu kombinasi antara pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Pendekatan kualitatif dilakukan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan analisis dokumen
untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan program. Sementara pendekatan kuantitatif menggunakan
survei dan kuesioner yang nantinya diolah melalui analisis SWOT dan QSPM. Responden
dipilih secara purposive, terdiri dari 12 anggota KWT dan pendamping P2L. Data yang dikumpulkan mencakup faktor internal seperti kekuatan dan kelemahan, faktor eksternal seperti
peluang dan ancaman, serta prioritas strategi pengembangan yang didasarkan pada hasil
matriks perumusan strategi.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kekuatan utama Program P2L terletak pada
ketersediaan lahan pekarangan, kemampuan teknis tanam, kemampuan membuat pupuk organik, serta dukungan pemerintah. Kelemahan utamanya adalah akses yang terbatas terhadap benih hibrida, risiko gagal panen akibat kondisi iklim, serta ketidakterorganisirannya
pemasaran hasil pertanian. Dari sisi eksternal, peluang terbesar berasal dari meningkatnya
permintaan pasar, kemungkinan kerja sama dengan pasar modern atau online, serta pertumbuhan sektor agrowisata. Ancaman utamanya meliputi gangguan dari organisme pengganggu tanaman (OPT), fluktuasi harga, serta distribusi hasil panen yang belum efisien. Berdasarkan analisis SWOT dan QSPM, strategi yang direkomendasikan untuk Program P2L di
Kecamatan Tadu Raya meliputi optimalisasi penggunaan lahan pekarangan, penguatan
pelatihan dan pendampingan berkelanjutan, kerja sama dengan pasar modern, serta pembangunan jaringan distribusi yang lebih efektif agar meningkatkan daya saing dan keberlanjutan usaha tani rumah tangga.

Indonesia is a developing country whose economy is heavily dependent on the agricultural sector, one of which is horticulture. Horticulture plays an important role as a source of income for the community, meeting nutritional needs, and contributing to state revenue from the non-mineral sector. However, there are still many challenges in achieving food security, ranging from limited access to land, insufficient capital, to suboptimal use of agricultural inputs, particularly for small-scale farmers. To address these issues, the government launched the Sustainable Food Garden Program (P2L) aimed at encouraging the use of backyard land to enhance food security and household income. Currently, the P2L program has covered thousands of farmer groups across various regions, including in Tadu Raya Sub-district. The program adopts a community-based approach, complemented by training and empowerment of Women Farmer Groups (KWT) to enable communities to become more self-reliant and productive in meeting their needs for healthy and sustainable food. This study was conducted in Tadu Raya Sub-district, Nagan Raya District, with the primary focus on the P2L program managed by the KWT. The research location was selected purposively, specifically in villages that have actively implemented the P2L program. The study used a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methodologies. Qualitative methods included interviews, observations, and document analysis. to determine the implementation of the program. Meanwhile, the quantitative approach uses surveys and questionnaires which are later processed through SWOT and QSPM analysis. Respondents were selected purposively, consisting of 12 KWT members and P2L assistants. The data collected includes internal factors such as strengths and weaknesses, external factors such as opportunities and threats, as well as development strategy priorities based on the results of the strategy formulation matrix. The research results show that the main strengths of the P2L Program lie in the availability of yard space, technical planting skills, the ability to make organic fertilizer, and government support. Its main weaknesses include limited access to hybrid seeds, the risk of crop failure due to climatic conditions, and the lack of organization in marketing agricultural products. Externally, the greatest opportunities stem from increasing market demand, the possibility of collaboration with modern or online markets, and the growth of the agrotourism sector. The main threats include disruptions from plant pests (OPT), price fluctuations, and inefficient distribution of harvest results. Based on the SWOT analysis and QSPM, the recommended strategies for the P2L Program in Tadu Raya Sub-district include optimizing the use of backyard land, strengthening training and ongoing support, collaborating with modern markets, and developing a more effective distribution network to enhance the competitiveness and sustainability of to determine the implementation of the program.
