This study aims to evaluate the application of fertilizer subsidies used by coffee farmers in the Humbang Hasundutan Regency. The research method used was qualitative. Three people became informants in this study, and data were collected through qualitative interviews. The results showed that coffee farmers in the Humbang Hasundutan District received high-quality subsidized fertilizer. However, there are some cases where fertilizer distribution is inadequate. For example, (1) the application of the type of fertilizer provided is good because farmers can apply for orders according to their needs in developing coffee farming, (2) the application of the amount of fertilizer distributed is also good because it is by the land area used by farmers, (3) but the application of fertilizer prices is not good because farmers have to pay additional costs that cause fertilizer prices to exceed the Highest Retail Price (HET), and (4) the distribution of fertilizer is not good because it often experiences delays. Thus, the government has a vital role in making national policies, local governments, agricultural agencies, and fertilizer producers or distributors in implementing and distributing fertilizer subsidies for coffee farmers in the Humbang Hasundutan Regency.
