Abstract

Tradisi Kopi Ethek di Desa Pijeran, Kecamatan Siman, Kabupaten Ponorogo merupakan praktik jual beli kopi keliling di area persawahan dengan sistem barter antara kopi dan gabah yang telah berlangsung secara turun-temurun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami peran tradisi Kopi Ethek sebagai strategi barter sosial-ekonomi dalam pemenuhan kebutuhan masyarakat Desa Pijeran serta menelaah upaya pemerintah desa dalam mendukung pelestarian dan pengembangannya. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan selama periode panen raya, dan dokumentasi, dengan melibatkan pedagang Kopi Ethek, petani, buruh tani, perangkat desa, masyarakat lama desa, dan staff desa sebagai informan. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman, yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tradisi Kopi Ethek berperan sebagai mekanisme ekonomi alternatif yang membantu masyarakat memenuhi kebutuhan konsumsi sehari-hari tanpa bergantung pada uang tunai, terutama saat musim panen. Sistem barter kopi dengan gabah terbentuk dari kondisi ekonomi petani yang bersifat musiman serta kuatnya nilai kepercayaan dan solidaritas sosial antarwarga. Selain fungsi ekonomi, tradisi ini juga mempererat hubungan sosial masyarakat melalui interaksi rutin di sawah, membangun rasa kebersamaan, dan menjadi bagian dari identitas budaya lokal masyarakat agraris. Adapun upaya pemerintah desa dalam mendukung pelestarian Kopi Ethek baru sebatas pengakuan dan pelibatan pedagang dalam kegiatan desa, tanpa kebijakan atau program pelestarian yang sistematis. Kendati demikian, terdapat peluang pengembangan Kopi Ethek sebagai wisata budaya berbasis komunitas, dengan catatan bahwa pengembangan tersebut harus mempertahankan keaslian tradisi dan menempatkan masyarakat sebagai pelaku utama agar nilai sosial dan budaya yang melekat tidak terkikis oleh komersialisasi. Peluang ini dapat diwujudkan melalui pendampingan pemerintah desa dan lembaga lokal dalam membentuk kelompok usaha pedagang Kopi Ethek, serta pengembangan paket wisata budaya yang menempatkan petani dan pedagang sebagai pemandu dan pelaku utama. Dengan demikian, pengembangan KE bukan hanya memperluas manfaat ekonomi, tetapi juga memperkuat identitas budaya agraris Desa Pijeran secara berkelanjutan.

The Kopi Ethek tradition in Pijeran Village, Siman District, Ponorogo Regency, is a practice of selling coffee around paddy fields using a barter system exchanging coffee for unhusked rice, passed down through generations. This study aims to understand the role of the Kopi Ethek tradition as a socio-economic barter strategy in meeting the daily needs of the Pijeran Village community, and to examine the efforts of the village government in supporting its preservation and development. The research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations during the main harvest season, and documentation, involving Kopi Ethek traders, farmers, farm laborers, village officials, long-time residents, and village administrative staff as informants. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model by Miles and Huberman, comprising data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the Kopi Ethek tradition serves as an alternative economic mechanism enabling the community to meet daily consumption needs without relying on cash, particularly during harvest season. The coffee-gabah barter system developed from the seasonal nature of farmers' income and the strong social values of trust and solidarity among community members. Beyond its economic function, the tradition also strengthens social bonds through regular interactions in the rice fields, fosters a sense of togetherness, and forms part of the local cultural identity of the agrarian community. The village government's efforts to support the preservation of Kopi Ethek have so far been limited to recognition and involvement of traders in village activities, without systematic policies or conservation programs. Nevertheless, there is potential to develop Kopi Ethek as community-based cultural tourism, provided that such development maintains the authenticity of the tradition and positions the local community as the primary actor, ensuring that its embedded social and cultural values are not eroded by commercialization. This opportunity can be realized through the support of the village government and local institutions in establishing business groups for Kopi Ethek vendors, as well as by developing cultural tourism packages that position farmers and vendors as the primary guides and key actors. In this way, the development of Kopi Ethek not only expands its economic benefits but also strengthens the agrarian cultural identity of Pijeran Village in a sustainable manner.
