Abstract

The study aims to evaluate the application of precision farming  technology in Tidal Land, Tanjung Baru Village, Muara Padang, Banyuasin. The study uses quantitative and qualitative approaches with field observation and survey methods and in-depth interviews. The population of the study was all farmers who manage agricultural land in Tanjung Baru Village. The research sample was taken purposively, namely farmers who have implemented or tried to implement precision farming. The number of samples was 30 farmers. Data collected included the use of precision farming technology, the obstacles faced and its impact on farmer productivity and welfare. In addition, the experience of farmers in implementing precision farming and identifying proposed solutions was also studied. Results of this study are that the majority of farmers in Tanjung Baru Muara Padang Banyuasin village were aged 41-50 years (46.7 percent), with an even level of education between high school, junior high school, and elementary school graduates. The largest land ownership is 3-5 hectares (53.3 percent). As many as 93.3 percent of respondents have implemented precision farming technology, with tractors and combine harvesters as the most commonly used technology. GIS  technology is used by 23.3 percent of respondents, drones by 10 percent, and plowing tools and machines and GRPS systems by 3.3 percent of respondents each. The main reasons for using technology are to increase farming productivity, reduce costs, and increase farming efficiency. Respondents want easy access to technology (50 percent), technical assistance (26.7 percent), and subsidy and financial assistance (20 percent). As many as 90 percent of respondents stated that they would continue to use precision farming technology in the future. More than 30 percent of respondents suggested assistance with precision farming tools and education and training, while 20 percent suggested the provision of water pumps. This indicates the need for comprehensive and sustainable support to increase the adoption of precision farming technologies.

Abstract

Agroforestry is a land use system that integrates agricultural and forestry crops in the same area, providing a balance between production and conservation for social, economic and ecological benefits. Farmers at the Lembah Bukit Besak Village Forest Institute, Tanjung Beringin Village, South Merapi District, have implemented this system. The research aims to identify planting patterns and composition of agroforestry plants, evaluate the most optimal plants to increase income, and formulate strategies for adopting the best planting patterns. This study used a census method to collect data from 75 farmers in the Rimba Bukit Besar Village Institution group. After conducting a sampling method using a purposive stratified random sampling method, 24 farmer respondents were obtained. The research results show two main planting patterns: a random mixture, applied by 66.67% of farmers, and tree along border pattern, applied by 33.33%. The most profitable crops are coffee, rubber, jengkol, durian and eggplant (Solanum melongena). The "Tree Along Border" pattern has proven to be more effective in preventing erosion and providing shade for plantation and vegetable crops compared to random mixture patterns which focus more on forestry and plantation crops. The strategy for adopting the best planting patterns includes the development of pilot demonstration plots, intensive counseling, dissemination of information on research results, as well as the involvement of the government and related agencies in supporting superior commodities. This approach is expected to increase farmers’ income and welfare in a sustainable manner. From the adoption of additional horticultural crop types, farmers’ income increased by 9.264 to 30.83 percent when compared to the application of a combination of plant types without horticultural commodities.
