Abstract

Climate change is expected to significantly influence Indonesian rice production as this phenomenon will exacerbate extreme climate events such as El Nino and La Nina which have caused serious loss in rice production. This paper is attempted to propose plausible climate change adaptations for rice production by examining the formal documents on climate change studies in Indonesia and rice development strategies and to investigate their linkage with the Sustainable Development in Indonesia. The result shows that climate change adaptations will support Indonesian rice development strategies through options of “change cropping pattern/modified planting season” which has not been addressed by the development strategies. The proposed adaptations which are directed through two major programs for increasing rice production called as Extensification and Intensification, have also already addressed the four pillars of Indonesian sustainable development, namely: pro-job, pro-poor, pro-growth and pro-environment.

Abstract

Agriculture system modeling is an effective tool in assisting agriculture practitioners to make crop calendar and to set up crop management strategies. Integration of the toll with climate forecast modeling will provide greater help for decision makers and farmers to set up better drought coping strategies. However the adoption of this tool is constrained by limited availability of long historical daily climatic data. This study indicates that the use of climatic data generator can solve this problem. Application of this approach at Pusaka Negara was assessed. It is suggested that when April SOI phase is rapidly falling or constantly negative (indicating EL-Nino years), keeping planting rice in the dry season is not recommended. Farmers may need to change their crops to non-rice crops requiring less water. The latest planting time for these crops in the El-Nino years should be first week of May. If the harvesting of first rice crops occur after 1st week of May, it is suggested that the land should be fallowed.---------------------------------------------------------------------Pemodelan sistim pertanian merupakan salah salat alat yang efektif untuk membantu pelaksana lapang dalam menyusun kalender tanam atau mengatur strategi pengelolaan tanaman. Penggabungan model tanaman dengan model prakiraan iklim akan sangat membantu pengambil kebijakan dan petani dalam menyusun strategi antisipasi kekeringan. Namun penggunaan model ini seringkali mengalami hambatan karena terbatasnya ketersediaan data iklim harian jangka panjang. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penggunakan pembangkit data iklim dapat memecahkan masalah tersebut. Aplikasi pendekatan ini di Pusakanegara telah dilakukan. Hasil penelitian merekimendaiskan ika kondisi SOI pada bulan April turun secara cepat atau konstan negatif (mengindikasikan El Nino), penanaman padi pada musim kemarau tidak direkomendasikan. Petani disarankan untuk mengganti tanamannya dengan tanaman selain padi yang memerlukan lebih sedikit air. Waktu penanaman paling terakhir pada tahun El Nino adalah minggu pertama bulan Mei. Jika panen padi pertama dilakukan setelah 1 Mei sangat disarankan untuk memberakan lahan.
