There is a transfer of knowledge and dissemination among the people of the community on the basis of an agricultural society that is self-reliant. The process of local wisdom management consists of 6 steps: 1) the occurrence of problems or curiosity; 2) finding a guideline for solving the problems and increasing knowledge; 3) practice in the real situation; 4) an analysis of practice outcomes; 5) recapitulation of the body of knowledge; and 6) body of knowledge application and transfer.
