Analisis Tingkat Literasi Dan Implementasi Zakat Pertanian Petani Padi Di Desa Polagan, Kecamatan Galis, Kabupaten Pamekasan

Abstract

This research will discuss the literacy level of rice farmers and the implementation of zakat on rice farming in Polagan Village, Galis District, Pamekasan Regency. Polagan Village has very large and fertile agricultural land, this is accompanied by the majority of the population there working as farmers. Rice farming zakat has enormous potential if many people understand and are aware of the obligation to pay agricultural zakat. In addition, there are many problems within the community, such as how to apply agricultural zakat in practice and theory. Because of its religious meaning, zakat is considered as one of the obligations that must be fulfilled by every Muslim. The results showed that the literacy level of rice farmers regarding zakat on rice farming was still lacking. This is evidenced by the fact that there are still many people who do not know about agricultural zakat, the lack of knowledge of farmers regarding the calculation of the percentage and nisab of agricultural zakat, and their lack of knowledge about the obligation to pay zakat and the groups of people who are entitled to receive zakat. The implementation of rice farming zakat in Polagan Village is not optimal because they only give alms with their sincere measure. They distribute their alms directly to other people in need, especially neighbors who are around their house.
