Women contribute significantly to the Indonesian coffee sector. Coffee is a vital part of the local economy in Indonesia, particularly in several districts in South Sumatera’s provinces. This paper focuses mainly to capture data that could illuminate key indicators of women’s empowerment in the development agenda and the relations with coffee productivity. Indonesia, which has the potential of coffee as a sector of strengthening the national economy, can not only rely on traditional farmers without focusing the women empowerment. The share of labor in coffee production provided by women was estimated at 70%. The problem as general comes with the point to make sure that women coffee smallholders can decide and influence the decision, self-perceptions, personal freedom, access to and control over resources, support from social networks, and access to and decisions about services. This research utilizes the concept of women in development: the development of dual roles and sustainable development to provide the perspective on how women are key stakeholders in improving coffee production. This approach is, therefore, essentials to comprehending the discourse of maintaining women empowerment and coffee productivity in Indonesia.
