Abstract

The Rice Cropping Index 400 (IP Padi 400) is one of the government’s initiatives to boost the production of rice commodities. The goal of the IP Padi 400 is to maximize the cropping index while optimizing the spatial and temporal patterns of rice cultivation. The aims of this study are to (1) know the variables influencing farmers’ affective attitudes toward the IP Padi 400 and (2) determine the effect of factors that influence affective attitudes on the farmers’ affective attitudes toward the IP Padi 400 in Ngemplak Sub-district, Boyolali Regency. This study used quantitative methods. A sample consisting of 47 participants was gathered by the census method. The analysis used multiple linear regression. The results of this study are: (1) non-formal education variables have a low influence; however, government support from the Ministry of Agriculture of Indonesia and agricultural extensions have a very significant influence and (2) non-formal education variables, government support, and agricultural extensions have significant influence on the formation of farmers’ attitudes toward the IP Padi 400.

Abstract

Population growth triggers the need for national food to increase, including the need for vegetable crops as a complement to human nutrition. Efforts made by farmers to meet the population’s needs for vegetable crops and a source of income, often have not paid attention to environmental conditions. Beruk Village is one of the villages where the people cultivate vegetables crops on the slopes of the mountains which should be used as a conservation area. This condition certainly requires farmers to always learn and apply appropriate local techniques so as not to harm the surrounding environment. This research aimed to explore the learning process of farmers in obtaining and examining local knowledge in vegetable cultivation. This study used a qualitative approach method with the interactive model analysis techniques of Miles and Huberman. The results showed that local knowledge of local farmers comes from parents/hereditary, local village farmers, and farmers outside the village through oral, experience, trial and error, and observation. The local knowledge includes seeding (garlic, onion, carrot), land processing stages and its frequency, ‘kalenan’ (horizontal drains), ‘kali gondhang’ (vertical drains), ‘plipit’ (the arrangement stones on the edge of ‘larikan’), benefits of spacing, planting time and season, intercropping, benefits of grass in agricultural land, fertilization methods, weeding, thinning, manual irrigation, utilization of agricultural and livestock waste, as well as method, age, and yield of harvest. The local agricultural tools used are hoe, crowbar, ‘ganco’, garden fork, trowel, sickle, bucket, sack, ‘lanjaran’, and its binder from natural material.

Abstract

Papaya is one of the horticultural crops that can be developed in current cultivation because it takes advantage of Indonesia’s tropical climate and is traditionally easily cultivated by farmers. Improper post-harvest handling resulted in a low selling price of papaya in the market. This condition caused farmers to experience losses and their numbers continue to decline because they chose to stop cultivating papaya. Even though the condition of papaya farmers continues to decline, some still persist in cultivating papaya. This is closely related to the motivation of farmers. This study aims to (1) examine the motivation level of farmers in cultivating papaya, (2) examine the factors that influence farmers’ motivation in cultivating papaya, (3) examine the influence between the factors that influence the motivation of farmers in cultivating papaya plants in Mojosongo Sub-district, Boyolali Regency. The research method used is a quantitative method. The research location was chosen purposively (intentionally) to be in Mojosongo Sub-district, Boyolali Regency. The sampling method used proportional random sampling and obtained 70 respondents. Data analysis applies multiple linear regression analysis. The results of the study prove that: (1) the motivation of farmers in cultivating papaya belongs to the high category; (2) the income variable is in the very high category, land area is in the medium category, the number of family is in the medium category; (3) the variables of land area and number of family have a significant effect on farmer motivation while income has no effect.
