INTRODUCTION
This study talks about the effect of service on community satisfaction. Satisfaction here can be interpreted as a person's level of feeling after comparing the results and expectations they have received. While service is one of the main tasks carried out by the government. According to KEMENPAN Number 63 of 2004, public services are all service activities carried out by public service providers in an effort to meet the needs of service recipients and implement statutory provisions. According to Gronroos (Ratminto, 2005) Service can also be interpreted as an activity or series of activities that are invisible (invisible) or cannot be touched that occur due to interactions between the community and employees or other things provided by the government to solve problems.
People need services in order to meet various needs that cannot be met alone, even at the extreme it can be said that services cannot be separated from human life. Services that are often needed are in the form of public goods and public services. The services provided in general have not been satisfactory to the public. Some are caused by the lack of discipline of service providers even though discipline itself is a capital that must be owned by service providers to the public (Pramawati & Sri Widnyani, 2019), there are also services provided that are too complicated for various reasons that are not acceptable to the community, so the service is not acceptable. ..given ineffective and inefficient. Such conditions make the public as users of public services dissatisfied.
One of the government offices whose activities are providing public services to the community is the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Department of Agriculture. Based on the initial observations that have been made, there are several problems encountered in the service sector. Good seen from the facilities and infrastructure that are not adequate to support daily activities. such as there is no suggestion box, seats in the waiting room are still lacking and there is no safe and comfortable parking space. this can disrupt and hinder the smooth running of service activities. Another factor that hinders service activities is that service providers are still lacking in time discipline and the security in the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Department is still lacking, such as the absence of guards or security guards so that public safety is not guaranteed. Satisfaction will be seen from how good the service is received and felt. The better the quality obtained, the better the satisfaction obtained. According to Nasution (2001) customer satisfaction is a condition in which the needs, desires, and expectations of customers can be met through the products consumed.
The previous literature studies related to the influence of public services on community satisfaction, including: Dwika Lodia Putri (2010), Doni Edwin Siregar (2015) and Ely Kartikaningdyah (2012), have similarities with this study, which are both measuring the level of community satisfaction using the satisfaction index. Public. While the difference lies in the data collection techniques used, the analytical methods used and the objects studied and the theories chosen will lead to results that are certainly different from previous studies.
So that the problem that arises is how the level of community satisfaction with the public services provided by the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Service with the hypothesis: it is suspected that the community is not satisfied with the services at the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Agricultural Service. Therefore, this study aims to determine the level of community satisfaction with public services provided by the Department of Agriculture, Food Crops and Horticulture, West Aceh.
The service itself is needed for every human being, even in extreme circumstances it can be said that service cannot be separated from human life. This means that the services provided by the government must prioritize services to its people, (Sinambela, 2010). In fact, the concept of service always exists in human life (Arya, 2019). Public service is every activity carried out by the government to a number of people who have every activity that offers satisfaction even though the results are not tied to a physical product (Pasolong, 2010). So, it can be concluded that public services are all service activities provided by the government to the community, both public goods and public services.
Likewise, the characteristics of services which have the power to influence the level of job satisfaction and performance. This can be seen in the various characteristic formulations made by experts, there are 5 (five) characteristics coined by Zeithaml, Berry and Parasuraman (Tjiptono, F and Diana, 2003) that are used by customers in evaluating service quality, namely: (a) evidence physical, (b) reliability, (c) responsiveness, (d) assurance and (e) empathy. Public services are accompanied by consumer or customer satisfaction because consumer satisfaction can be shown through consumer attitudes after consuming the product obtained. Satisfaction will be seen from how well the product is obtained and felt. The better the quality of the product obtained, the better the customer satisfaction. According to Irawan (2004) satisfaction is a perception of service products that have met expectations, therefore people will not be satisfied if their expectations are not met. Moreover, customer satisfaction is very necessary in an organization or institution because it is an element that influences the effectiveness of the organization to what extent the organization is able to survive by being encouraged to improve the quality of its management (Dohlia, Syamsurizaldi, & Wandra, 2019;Fatimah, 2019).
In the Decree of the Minister for Empowerment of State Apparatus No. Kep./25.M.PAN/2/2004 Regarding the community satisfaction index, there are 14 elements that are relevant, valid and reliable as the minimum elements that must be available as a basis for measuring the community satisfaction index, including: Service procedures, service requirements, clarity service officers, discipline of service officers, responsibilities of service officers, ability of service officers, speed of service, justice in getting services, courtesy and friendliness of officers, reasonableness of service costs, certainty of service costs, certainty of service schedules, and environmental comfort.

METHOD
This study uses quantitative methods which are defined as research methods based on the philosophy of positivism, used to examine a particular population or sample, collect data using research instruments, and analyze data with the aim of testing predetermined hypotheses. This quantitative research method requires research data in the form of numbers and analysis using statistics with data collection techniques: questionnaires, documentation and observations.
The data analysis technique uses the community satisfaction index (IKM), calculated using the "weighted average value" of each service element and satisfaction. In the calculation of the community satisfaction index there are 24 independent variables and the dependent variable examined, each variable has the same weight with the following formula: Bobot nilai rata − rata tertimbang = Jumlah bobot Jumlah unsur = 1 24 = 0,041 To get the value of the service unit IKM, the weighted average value approach uses the following formula:

IKM =
Total nilai per unsur Total unsur yang terisi × Nilai penimbang To facilitate the interpretation of the IKM assessment, which is between 20-100, the evaluation results above are converted to a base value of 20, with the following formula: The results of this calculation are then categorized by the perceived value and the value of the IKM interval as shown in table 3.1, as follows: To get the weighted average value of the service element, the total value of the average service element can be multiplied by 0.041 as the weighted average weight. While the composite index (composite) for each service unit is the sum of the average value of each service element which can be multiplied by 20. This result is the IKM value from the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Department of Agriculture. Because service units have different characteristics, it is possible for each service unit to add elements that are considered relevant and give different weights to the 5 dominant elements in the service unit, and 14 elements to the satisfaction unit, with all total weights being fixed.

Community Satisfaction Index Calculation Results
Calculating the value of the Community Satisfaction Index, to facilitate the interpretation of the IKM value between the values of 20-100, the results of the assessment of the weighted average value above are converted to the basic value of 20, with the following formula: The weighted value is obtained from the NRR per element x 0.041. Based on the service quality category in table 1, the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Department of Agriculture obtained a conversion result of 61.78. The performance of the service elements of the West Aceh Food Crops and Horticulture Department of Agriculture is in the service quality "B" with the "GOOD" category.
