Abstract

The Planting Area Expansion (PAT) program aims to optimize rice fields that were previously hampered by water limitations through the use of water pumps to increase water availability during the dry season. The objectives of the study were to analyze farmers’ attitudes towards the PAT program, describe factors that shape these attitudes, and examine the relationship between these factors and farmers’ attitudes in Weru Sub-district, Cirebon Regency. The method used was quantitative with data collection through observation, interviews using questionnaires, and documentation. A total of 77 farmers were determined as respondents using the proportional random sampling technique, and the data were analyzed using the Spearman rank correlation test. The results showed that most farmers were hesitant regarding the outcomes and impacts of the PAT program due to increased production costs during the dry season, leading them to disagree with its benefits. The farming experience factor had a significant positive relationship with farmers’ attitudes, while formal education, non-formal education, and the role of people considered important had a significant negative relationship. Age and local culture factors did not have a significant relationship with farmers’ attitudes. These results indicate that farming experience contributes to forming a more positive attitude towards the PAT program, while education, intensity of extension, and social roles tend to form attitudes that are hesitant or less supportive. This study suggests that experienced farmers be the main target of the program and reduce the intensity of discussions about the PAT program in agricultural extension activities.

The Ciherang variety developed by the Department of Agriculture’s Research Center is useful for increasing rice productivity and obtaining varieties that are resistant to pests and diseases. Bangkalan Regency seeks to support agricultural development by introducing the Ciherang variety as a step to increase production and the welfare of farmers in the region. The ability to accept an idea is different for each individual, including farmers. Therefore, this study needs to be conducted to determine the factors of farmer characteristics in the level of adoption of Ciherang rice cultivation in Bangkalan Regency. This study aimed to determine the relationship between farmer characteristic factors and the level of adoption of Ciherang rice cultivation in Bangkalan Regency. This research uses quantitative methods, including field survey techniques and purposive sampling techniques, to determine the research location in Bangkalan Regency.

Abstract

The implementation of the Optimization of Rice Land Index Improvement 400 (commonly called OPIP Padi 400) in Bendosari Sub-district has yet to be fully realized. Some of farmers still unsure, are in the process of implementing, or have not and not implemented the program. This is because the rate of innovation adoption is influenced by the characteristics of the adoptees. This study aimed to determine factors forming characteristic of farmers, farmer adoption rate in the program, examines relationships between farmer characteristics with their adoption Rate, the difference in OPIP Padi 400 adoption rate between farmers on paddy fields and dry land. Quantitative research design was used. In this research Mulur, Mojorejo, Cabeyan, and Puhgogor Villages of Bendosari Sub-district were purposively selected. Disproportionate random sampling was used to sample 68 farmers. Quantitative data were analyzed using rank spearman and Mann Whitney with IBM SPSS Statistics 25 program. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between farmer characteristics with adoption rate of OPIP Padi 400 innovations, such as age, non-formal education, land ownership, farmer group membership, and farming experience. Formal education, number of household members, and farmland size are not significantly related. A comparison of the adoption rate of OPIP Padi 400 between farmers in paddy fields and dry land obtained Asymp.Sig (2-tailed) of 0.058, which means that there is no significant difference at the 95% confidence level (α = 0.05).

Abstract

The women’s empowerment program through ginger and galangal cultivation was initiated by Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of Combiphar Inc. This program aims to improve the welfare and capacity of women farmers. Initially, this program was welcomed enthusiastically by members of the target women’s farmer groups (KWT), but there was a decline in KWT member participation in the second planting period. This research aims to determine the supporting and inhibiting factors in the process of empowering KWT Karya Makmur II in ginger and galangal cultivation carried out by CSR of Combiphar Inc. This research uses a descriptive qualitative analysis method with a case study approach. In this research, the informants involved included members of KWT Karya Makmur II, the Persada Yogyakarta Foundation as Combiphar’s partner, the Agriculture and Food Service, Field Agricultural Extension Officers (PPL), as well as the local community. Data collection techniques were carried out using in-depth interviews, observation and documentation as well as using Miles and Huberman’s interactive analysis. The research results show that leadership, cooperation, policy and technology are supporting factors in the empowerment process of KWT Karya Makmur II in ginger and galangal cultivation. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include dependency, commitment, organizational management, and marketing. Research findings reveal that the success of empowerment programs depends not only on technical factors but also on social and institutional factors. This provides important recommendations for further CSR program development, namely the need for a holistic approach that takes into account socio-economic aspects and institutional capacity in community empowerment efforts.
