Finally learn from the case of pump barsha program toward access and control for women. This research uses the qualitative descriptive method. Data gathered arrived from conducted interviews and focus group discussions. Results show that the Indonesian goverment have many regulation and policies at National level to reach the gender equality and justice. The majority of government offices in the East Sumba district have no gender perspective policies and programs. This is mainly due to the lack of funding, lack of collaboration among institution and enhanced human resources. In addition, the influence of patriarchal culture still dominates the societal life in Sumba and political institutions, in general, have no solid and serving commitment towards women empowerment. Therefore, the mentioned factors have significant influence towards access, participation and control for women farmers which are the bare minimum. In the future, it is necessary to formulate gender perspective policies and programs by integrating needs, access, control in order to produce equal benefits for men and women both in institutional enviroment and among group of farmers.
