Abstract
Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indonesian economy, including through extension services that help farmers optimize agricultural resources. Ponorogo Regency is known as one of the leading corn producing areas, with yields reaching 10.2 to 12.4 tons per hectare. Extension services conducted in Sepat Hamlet, Suru Village, aim to empower corn farmers through participatory and group methods. Hybrid corn, which is widely used due to its high yield potential and resistance to pests, requires seed replacement every planting season. Major challenges in corn cultivation include downy mildew and stem rot, which require preventive measures. Good post- harvest practices, such as drying and storage, are essential to maintaining corn quality and preventing losses. Through proper extension and care, farmers can increase corn productivity and quality.
