The method was carried out by field survey and deep interview regarding the community’s coping strategy using socio agriculture and the agriculture system. A field survey was done using a grounded research technique. Based on the data shows that the community of Gede Catchment has a coping strategy for living harmony using socio-agriculture. The community has local indigenous value to mitigate the impact of landslide disaster. They have a high tolerance for each other not only when disaster occurs but in daily activities. The community uses the former landslide to plant vegetable crops. The community has a coping strategy for arrangement their environment between permanent tress and vegetables crops in the each single topography as control landslide. It is this coping strategy to mitigate the landslide disaster because with high tolerance and arrangement the spatial arrangement of plants and topography can decrease the chance of a landslide disaster.
