Subak encompasses not only cultivated land and its irrigation system but also the intertwined social and religious activities, particularly involving women farmers. These resilient Balinese women support their families while preserving agricultural heritage and engaging in tourism post-Covid-19. Their cultural roles in daily life have evolved alongside significant changes, such as the conversion of agricultural land to tourism facilities. In this village, women farmers have pursued equitable wage practices in tourism, positively affecting their children and enhancing tourism's value. This study aims to analyse the rational actions of Subak Bengkel-Bali women farmers in creating added value through agriculture and tourism. Employing a qualitative approach with explanatory descriptive research, interviews were conducted using the snowball principle, alongside observation and documentation. Data underwent reduction, verification, and condensation to yield recommendations. Results indicate that women farmers not only farm but also work in tourism-related sectors like restaurants and villas.
