Abstract

Many researches on the agricultural lexicon have been carried out, but as far as tracing and studying, no research has been found that specifically examines the agricultural lexicon in the Sundanese community in Sumur District, Pandeglang Regency, Banten Province. This article specifically discusses the agricultural lexicon within the scope of the agricultural culture of the Sumur District community. This article comes from the results of research that uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an ethnographic method with an ecolinguistic design. The data was obtained by conducting participant observations and interviews with informants who were considered to understand and master the problems of agricultural culture in the Sumur District area. This study resulted in the following findings: (1) the lexicon of the name of the process of cultivating a field of 60 pieces; (2) the lexicon of the name of the process of gardening or farming 34 pieces; (3) time lexicon related to rice field, gardening, or farming 28 fruit; and (4) the local wisdom of the community which is represented in the form of taboos related to the farming process, both expressions of prohibition and orders. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that there had been a shift in the agricultural lexicon in the Sumur sub-district triggered by social, economic, cultural, and ecological factors
