This study discusses the internal logic of an agrarian society behind the conversion of traditional and modern technology use in an agrarian society. The disclosure of this logic becomes the basis for understanding the reasons for the farming community to combine the use of two technological configurations in an agrarian society. The method used in this study is in-depth interviews and observations. The findings of this study indicate that the use of two technology models, both simple technology and modern technology is a strategy to overcome and reach agricultural and plantation land at the same time. The duality of the use/application of technology also shows changes in the community's social system based on commodities and arable land.
