Abstract: In this modern era, development programs implemented in Indonesia basically aim to improve the welfare of all parties. However, in the process of achieving these goals, sometimes it also has a different (unfavorable) impact, especially for certain parties, for example vulnerable groups (in this case economically classified as poor). The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of modernization in the agrarian sector. The existence of agrarian modernization in the agricultural sector has had a positive impact on employment opportunities for farm workers, especially with the existence of machined agricultural equipment such as tractor engines, motorized pest control tanks, the existence of combined machines makes it easier for farmers to supervise labor and reduce implementation costs and time. faster execution of work. In addition to having a positive impact, modernization also has a negative impact where food crops are included in the green revolution program. In fact, modernization programs only improve the fate of farmers in the upper layers of the village, while smallholders and farm laborers are left untouched. Smallholder farmers and farm laborers are still left behind, not being picked up by the flow of development. Agricultural modernization also emphasizes technology but forgets the social structure. As a result, small farmers will get poorer and large farmers can accumulate land, so that the difference between wealth and poverty is increasingly tiered, so that social polarization will occur.
