Abstract

Potato farming has a crucial role in promoting the agricultural sector of East Java, Indonesia, with significant consequences for regional economic growth and acting as the main source of income for farmers. However, the primary challenge that potato farmers face involves improving production efficiency in order to strengthen the sustainability and competitiveness of the agricultural industry. This study aims to analyze the technical efficiency of potato farming in East Java and identify the factors affecting this efficiency. The study focuses on the areas of Sumberberantas and Wonokerso in East Java, which serve as key centers for growing potatoes. The study includes a group of 82 farmers as respondents, with 40 from Sumberberantas and 42 from Wonokerso. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a method that systematically examines levels of technical efficiency. It is complimented by Tobit Regression Analysis, which assists in identifying the relevant elements affecting efficiency. The findings indicate that the average technical efficiency score is 0.840, suggesting that farmers have the potential to increase their efficiency by up to 16%. Gender and land area for potato farming are identified as crucial factors affecting technical efficiency, while age, education, and farming experience have no effect.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse technical efficiency (TE) of smallholder sugarcane farming, factors affecting of TE, and farm profitability using the Profit-Sharing System (SBH) and Sugarcane Purchasing System (SPT) partnership schemes. The research location is in the Ngadiredjo Sugar Factory work area. Research methodology using DEA, Tobit regression, and sugarcane farming analysis in each partnership scheme. The results of the analysis showed that the average TE value of smallholder sugarcane farming on dry land is 0,91 (91%) and still had the potential to be increased by 0,9 (9%). Factors that influence the TE level are the role of the Ngadiredjo Sugar Factory in developing its partner farmers. The average income and RC ratio value (actual and target) obtained (after efficiency) in the SBH partnership were respectively IDR 13.44 million/ha and IDR 18.07 million/ha, while in the SPT partnership they were respectively IDR 2.69 million/ha and IDR 7.3 million/ha. The RC ratio value of existing smallholder sugarcane farming (actual) is 1.18. While in the SPT partnership scheme the RC Ratio value is 1.03. Based on the value of income, RC ratio, and sugarcane farming assumption used the SBH partnership is better than the SPT partnership scheme.
