Abstract :
This research is a preliminary study using a field study approach. This preliminary study aims to identify natural resources in Pageraji Village that have the potential to be developed to increase the income of the village community. Data collection was conducted by distributing questionnaires and supported by interviews with relevant parties who understand the village’s natural conditions. Furthermore, Nvivo software was used to process the interview results regarding the hopes and challenges faced in village development. The results of the study successfully identified that Pageraji Village has natural resources that have the potential to be developed. The presence of coconut trees, land area, and soil and water conditions were identified that could be developed for future agricultural and livestock activities. Based on the coding carried out, it was identified that the natural resources owned by the village are supported by creativity, innovation, community involvement, and government support, providing hope for the development of the village’s potential. Furthermore, it was identified that motivation, discipline, conservatism, and the role of institutions are challenges to the development of the village’s potential. The results of the study provide insights into the natural resources of Pageraji Village, which in the future can be utilized to develop the village’s economic potential. In addition, this research can be continued to deepen other potentials that Pageraji Village has so that later a model can be designed that can be adopted for the development of village potential in general.
