The objective of the research is to find a research training model (R & D) for farmers to improve the environment quality in technical irrigation. The sample respondents were chosen by thepurposive sampling method. Data collection was done by giving a questionaire to the respondents. The analysis used was descriptive analysis. The results of the research are as follows: the training model consists of seven steps, namely: (a) perform aneeds analysis, (b) formulate thetraining objectives, (c) develop thetraining materials, (d) determine the tests and training methods, (e) conduct apreliminary assessment, (f) conduct training,and (g) make a final assessment. Thedescription of thetraining materials required by thefarmers, consisted of: (a) knowledge of wetland agricultural ecosystem, (b) environmental knowledge, (c) knowledge of irrigation area maintenance, (d) knowledge of environmental pollutionand (e) conservation knowledge of irrigation areas.Thedevelopment of training materials shall be carried out in the following steps: (a) analyzing the objective-based materials, (b) designing training materials based on theobjectives, (c) develop the material by referring to the relevant literature, (d) validate, (e) implement materialsand (f) conduct an evaluation.
