Adhyaksa Football Club Banten, formerly known as Farmel and Adhyaksa Farmel, is an Indonesian professional football club based in Serang Regency, Banten. They will compete in the Super League next season, following promotion from the 2025–26 Championship.
History
Founded on 20 January 2020, Farmel made its debut into Indonesian football by joining the third-tier league Indonesia Liga 3. As a first step, Farmel's management has appointed Adnan Mahing as head coach.[2] But this season (2020) competition was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia.[3] On 2 November 2021, Farmel opened their third-tier league season with a 9–0 win against Bintang Junior.[4][5] On 18 November, Farmel closed the group stage with a 0–0 draw against Jagat. They qualified for the second round as winners of group C with 13 points.[6][7] In the semi-final match against Matrix Putra Brother's, they qualified to the final with a 3–1 win.[8][9]
In the buildup towards the 2024–25 Liga 2 season, the club changed their name to Adhyaksa Football Club underneath the stewardship of the Public Prosecution Service of Indonesia.[10] Previously, the service had collaborated with Farmel's owners with the club being known as Adhyaksa Farmel Football Club, winning the 2023–24 Liga 3 title during that period.[11]
On 8 May 2026, Adhyaksa secured promotion to the Super League for the first time in their history from next season after beating Persipura Jayapura 0–1 in the Promotion play-off match.[12]
Controversies
In the round of 32 in the national round 2021–22 Liga 3 between Bandung United and Farmel, the referee gave a controversial red cards to Bandung players Saiful, Rizki Arohman, Satrio Azhar, and Andri Febriansyah. As a form of disappointment, Bandung United players let the opposing team win by 3–0.[13]
Previously, in the match against NZR Sumbersari against Farmel there was even a commotion when Farmel received a penalty at the end of the match and made the score of 1–1.[14]
PSBL Langsa also protested the referee's decision which made them lose 4–1 to Farmel. In this match, the referee's leadership was considered detrimental to the Langsa PSBL team, such as the penalty obtained by Farmel.[15]
In the round of 16 of the Liga 3 season 2021–22, Farmel again benefited from the controversial decision of the referee, with controversial offside and a penalty. In this match Farmel managed to beat Prilly Latuconsina's club Persikota Tangerang with a score of 3–0.[16]

Mascot
Rajawali is mascot of Adhyaksa FC. The natural qualities of the Rajawali reflect the Tri Krama doctrine of Adhyaksa (Satya, Adhi, Wicaksana), which every prosecutor must possess.
- Sharp Vision (Wicaksana): The Eagle is known for its extremely sharp eyesight, allowing it to detect prey from a distance. This symbolizes the character of a prosecutor, who must be observant, thorough, and wise in assessing legal facts and uncovering the truth behind a case.
- Courage to Face a Storm (Adhi): Unlike other birds that hide during a storm, the Eagle (Rajawali) uses the power of the storm's winds to soar higher. This reflects the character of a prosecutor, who must be resilient, professional, and courageous in the face of significant pressure or obstacles in upholding justice.
- Loyalty (Satya): The Eagle (Rajawali) is known for its lifelong loyalty to its partner. This trait aligns with the value of Satya in the Attorney General's doctrine, namely loyalty rooted in honesty towards God, oneself, and the country.
