Abstrak

The conflict between nickel mining companies and pepper plantation farmers is an illustration of the dynamics of the process of fighting for interests over the use of natural resource land. The increasingly widespread mining activities have caused significant economic, social, and ecological impacts, especially for farmers who depend on pepper farming land as a regional leading commodity, in this paper we look at the process of gaining between farmers and mining companies. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of conflicts, causative factors, and negotiation processes between mining companies and farmers using a qualitative descriptive approach. The results of the study show that power imbalances, lack of public consultation, and unclear land boundaries are the main factors triggering conflicts. The negotiation mechanisms taken by companies often do not produce a fair deal for farmers, leading to resistance in the form of protests and open rejections. This study emphasizes the importance of natural resource management based on social justice, transparency, and local community involvement as a prerequisite for sustainable conflict resolution.
