ABSTRACT 

Downstreaming of agricultural products is one of the most talked-about strategies to increase farmers' income. However, the downstream development of agricultural waste that can be a by-product of this sector is still not so much explored. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research related to the economic potential of agricultural waste as a first step in developing a circular economy in the agricultural sector in Aceh. The method used is a mix method that uses quantitative and qualitative approaches with a waste survey and financial and economic analysis of agricultural waste and through FGDs and in-depth interviews. The results showed that waste from various commodities such as food, horticulture, plantation, and biopharmaca can be processed into value-added products such as organic fertilizer, animal feed, bioenergy, and health products. By processing agricultural waste into useful products, the application of circular economy can help reduce waste that pollutes the environment, especially organic waste. By utilizing harvest waste as raw materials for other products, farmers can earn additional income, both from self-production and from selling the waste to those who process it. This waste utilization supports sustainable agricultural practices by reducing dependence on new raw materials and maximizing the use of available resources.

Keywords: agricultural waste, circular economy, downstream.
