Abstract : This research delves into the influence of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) on the progression of agriculture and the rural economy in Indonesia. MSMEs hold a pivotal position in the Indonesian economy, significantly contributing to job creation and economic expansion. Despite this, their potential to stimulate agricultural growth and enhance the rural economy remains largely uncharted. The investigation of this study centers on the mutual relationship between MSMEs and the agricultural sector. It emphasizes how MSMEs can instigate innovation, augment productivity, and pave the way for rural farmers to access markets. The study also scrutinizes the part MSMEs play in rural development by evaluating their role in boosting income, mitigating poverty, and empowering socio-economic aspects in rural regions. Furthermore, this study identifies the obstacles MSMEs encounter in their contribution to agricultural and rural economic development. These challenges include access to finance, technology, and a complex workforce. The report puts forth policy recommendations to surmount these hurdles and tap into the potential of MSMEs for the advancement of agriculture and rural economic growth in Indonesia. The study enriches the literature on MSMEs, agricultural development, and rural economics. It offers valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers who are keen on promoting sustainable development in Indonesia. The findings of this research underscore the necessity of fortifying MSMEs to attain agricultural development and rural economic prosperity in Indonesia.
