With the empowerment of women optimally and on target, it will produce good welfare and produce intelligent, high-achieving and healthy families. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of skill education and training and understanding of the empowerment of female farm workers in improving the family economy. The method and technique of data analysis in this study are descriptive qualitative through a data triangulation model, namely field observation, documentation and literature review. The sampling technique uses probability sampling. The results of the study showed that all female farm workers stated that their level of welfare was much higher when compared to when they did not work as farm workers and only relied on income from their husbands. This can also be seen in terms of the facilities they have such as two-wheeled vehicles, household appliances, home renovations and they can also send their children to college, all of these facilities are obtained from women's efforts as farm workers in the fields and gardens.
