- Abstract
Social status is a level or the position of a person in a society as derived from the level of education, level of employment, level of income and wealth and expenses. Social status is often directly proportional to the behavior of rice farmers. For instance, The spread of agricultural innovations in the countryside depends on the nature of the innovation and the type of societal decision-making. If individual innovation decision-making is more dominant, the positive relationship between social status and the rice field farmer's behavior is acceptable, but if collective decision-making is more dominant, the spread of innovation depends on the suitability of the rice field farmer's innovations for village communities. This study aims to look at the determinants of social status and observe the relationship between social status and the behavior of rice farmers in their social liveslife in Taman Fajar Village, Purbolinggo District, East Lampung Regency. This study used a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach. The population were rice farmers in this area. Data collection was done using observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence on the social status and behavior of rice farmers in society. This means that the higher the yields the rice farmers obtain, the more positive impact they can have on society, one of which is giving alms to people in need.
