Abstract: Women farmers in rural areas that have low incomes are vulnerable to survival challenges. Despite receiving government support, they do not necessarily attain economic sufficiency. Women farmers face challenges in managing their enterprises due to decreased consumer purchasing power and income instability resulting from the economic recession during and after the pandemic. However, these challenging conditions could encourage women farmers to strengthen their economic recovery. This situation has generated several study objectives, including understanding the diverse implications of the economic recession experienced by women farmers during COVID-19. Then, identify the various options available to women farmers contributions to mitigate different types of economic recession in Indonesia. Additionally, examine the function of each stakeholder in sustaining the economic stability of agricultural households and rural communities. This research employs descriptive analysis, incorporating policy analysis with multiple stakeholders. This study indicates that local stakeholders and organizations, like farmer associations and rural governments, can offer answers to the economic recession faced by women farmers and rural communities. Women farmers can further accelerate economic recovery by increasing the production of commercially viable agricultural goods.
