Seawater intrusion and river overflows due to high rainfall due to the impact of climate change have decreased the health level of paddy fields. Farmers need to be trained to analyze the health of the paddy soil in a simple way through field schools. Simple analysis training of paddy soil health through farmer field school methods needs to be tested to determine its effectiveness in increasing farmers’ abilities. The research was conducted on 17 farmers from Paledah Village and Ciganjeng Village (Padaherang District, Pangandaran Regency, West Java Province) as well as from Rawaapu Village and Cimurutu Village (Patimuan District, Cilacap Regency, Central Java Province). The measuring instrument in this study was a pretest and post test questionnaire. The analysis used is non-parametric statistical analysis Chi-Square. The size of the increase in farmer science based on the pretest and posttest values was analyzed using the n-gain test. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant difference between the average postest score (65.88) and the pretest average score (54.12) and there is an increase of 21.74%. Based on the value of the gain factor, the increase in farmers’ knowledge is moderate. The training participants gave a positive attitude towards training activities where all farmers agreed and strongly agreed that the material was in accordance with the farmers’ needs, the presenters conveyed the material well, the material provided was easy to apply, the availability of facilities and infrastructure greatly supported the activity, the training was conducive, the training was good. provided benefits to farmers, and training materials will try to be applied independently.
