Popis: Agricultural statistics in the land use report at the Agriculture and Food Service of Rembang Regency found that in the last 3 years there has been a decrease in land use. The conversion of paddy fields can have a negative impact on food availability and food security of the population. One of the problems faced in agricultural and food development efforts in Rembang Regency is that food access is not yet optimal and food consumption is not yet diverse, nutritionally balanced and safe. The Sustainable Food Yard (P2L) activity is carried out to increase the availability, accessibility and utilization of food in order to realize household food security and support government programs to handle priority intervention locations to reduce stunting. Meanwhile, the women farmer group as one of the women farmer institutions in Rembang Regency is considered to have a very strategic role in the household as a provider of nutritious food for the family. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of women farmer groups in the P2L program and analyze the influence of the role of women farmer groups on improving the quality of family food through the implementation of the P2L program in Rembang Regency. This research uses the path analysis method. The results showed that the role of women farmer groups had a significant effect on the level of food quality through the implementation of P2L. Efforts are needed to strengthen the institutionalization of woman farmer groups for the sustainability of group activities and to increase the capacity of women farmer groups in terms of accessing information, technology and knowledge through the internet.
