Abstract

The objectives of this study were to use of marigolds in the community. There were a total of 19 key informants who were studied using a qualitative approach. The results showed that according to folk wisdom, selecting marigolds of ornamental value can repel insects. Additionally, marigolds can be cooked and consumed. Marigold flowers are also used for various ceremonies, such as ordination, funeral, housewarming, etc. They can be fed to ducks and chickens to get eggs with a dark red yolk. Marigold can be used as a medicine to get relief from dizziness, purify the blood, and cure malnutrition in children. Finally, it can be used to make fabric dyes or can be sold commercially.
