Background: Land plays a crucial role in human life and national development; however, its limited availability often triggers conflicts related to land ownership and utilization. One significant conflict occurred between PT Maskapai Perkebunan Moelia (MPM) and local communities in Cianjur Regency, which was resolved through government intervention by the Ministerial Regulation of ATR/BPN No. 17 of 2020. This resolution, involving land redistribution, is expected to serve as a model for addressing land conflicts in other plantations across Indonesia. Therefore, it is essential to examine the strategies used in this resolution and apply them to similar cases. It is important to research this success further so that similar conflict resolution strategies can be applied in other regions in IndonesiaPurpose: This research aims to identify the factors influencing land conflict resolution and formulate priority strategies for addressing such conflicts.Design/methodology/approach: This study adopts a positivist approach with a quantitative method conducted over one month at PT Maskapai Perkebunan Moelia.
