The government's decision to prioritize the food crop sector as a strategic sector for development is driven by the high demand for food crops in society. Efforts to meet the basic food needs, particularly rice consumption, must focus on the production from each rice farming activity. Rice production is closely related to the performance of farmers and their success in managing their farming businesses. However, farmers often face limitations and challenges when carrying out their farming activities. Given the various problems farmers encounter, the concept of social capital arises from the idea that members of a community cannot individually address the numerous issues they face. The objectives of this study are: (1) to analyze the influence of social capital and farmer group management on the performance of rice farmers in Sleman Regency, (2) to analyze the influence of social capital and farmer group management on the performance of rice farming businesses in Sleman Regency, and (3) to analyze the impact of farmer performance on the performance of rice farming businesses in Sleman Regency. The sample of this study consists of 100 farmer respondents, selected using purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis and Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of the study indicate that social capital and farmer group management directly have a positive influence on the performance of farmers and rice farming businesses in Sleman Regency. The results also show that farmer performance directly has a positive influence on the performance of rice farming businesses in Sleman Regency. Additionally, farmer performance, acting as a mediator between social capital and farmer group management, positively influences both farmer performance and the performance of rice farming businesses in Sleman Regency.
