The research method uses a qualitative approach with data processing using a literature review of three Garuda database indexed references with a publication range of 2016 - 2023. The research results show that research regarding the application of social media in agricultural extension activities in Central Java is quite good and can have a positive impact on accuracy, efficiency and effectiveness of extension and increasing agricultural productivity.
