Analisis Hukum Ekonomi Syariah Tentang Penyesuaian Upah Panen Singkong

The wage system in the agricultural sector is one form of ijarah (employment contract) that should be implemented based on the principles of justice, mutual consent, and wage transparency as stipulated in Islamic Economic Law. However, in the cassava harvesting practice in Fajar Bulan Village, Central Lampung Regency, wages are distributed equally between two workers without considering differences in workload, effort, or working time contributed by each individual. This practice has the potential to create injustice, as workers who contribute greater effort receive the same wage as those whose contribution is relatively lower. This study aims to analyze the piece-rate wage system applied to cassava harvesting in Fajar Bulan Village and to examine its conformity with the principles of Islamic Economic Law, particularly the principles of justice ('adl), mutual consent (tarāḍī), and the ijarah contract. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach through field research. Data are collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving key informants, including the landowner, the head of the harvesting team, and cassava harvest workers. The collected data are analyzed using descriptive qualitative analysis through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. This study is expected to contribute to the development of Islamic Economic Law, particularly in the field of wage systems within the agricultural sector. Furthermore, the findings are expected to serve as a reference for landowners and agricultural workers in implementing a wage system that is fair, proportional, and consistent with the principles of Islamic law.
