Interventions for agricultural development in Aceh Besar district should be based on local potential. Thus sacrifices were included in the intervention process will provide a significant added value of budget. This study aims to formulate effective intervention models in each region based on the potential of each clusters. Research has been conduct by the survey method in three clusters that have dominated the field of food crops, plantations and farms. The results showed that there were variations in the effectiveness of each intervention model in three clusters. The success of interventions in three clusters in general due to several factors, among others : (a) precision targeting, (b) the period of employment in the intervention process, (c) the budget allocated, (d) areas
of intervention, (e) the scale of intervention and (f) support stakeholders in their respective territories. For Cluster I were the dominant food crop potential, the field of interventional factors greatly affect the success of the program. Cluster II with the potential for the dominant estate, the target accuracy factor, and the scale of activities is very influential on the success of the program. For Cluster III with  dominant breeding potential, the budget amount and period factors greatly influence the success of the mentoring program. Therefore in future intervention model adapted to the local potential with a different treatment.
