Abstract

Farmers’ groups are farmer institutions that play a crucial role in enhancing members’ capacity through learning, cooperation, and agricultural business development. A farmers’ group’s ability to carry out its institutional functions serves as the basis for determining its capability class, which reflects the level of development of the farmer organization. This study aims to analyze the capability classes of irrigated rice farmers’ groups based on their institutional functions in Ranomeeto Village, Ranomeeto Subdistrict, South Konawe Regency. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. The study population consists of 106 farmers who are members of six active farmers’ groups under the Sri Kembang Farmers’ Association (Gapoktan). The sample of 51 respondents was determined using the Slovin formula and selected through proportional random sampling. Data were collected through interviews using a questionnaire, literature review, and documentation, and were then analyzed descriptively and quantitatively using scores and percentages. The results indicate that the farmers’ groups’ capabilities vary across the institutional functions analyzed. Relatively high capabilities were observed in the areas of building cooperation with other parties, utilizing facilities and infrastructure, and taking corrective actions to address group issues. Conversely, areas requiring improvement include active member participation, cooperation in carrying out activities, and the recording and documentation of group activities. Overall, the farmer groups have demonstrated fairly good capabilities in carrying out their institutional functions, particularly in operational aspects and the development of institutional networks. However, strengthening organizational capacity, group administration, and member engagement is still necessary to improve the effectiveness of farmer group management. The findings of this study provide important information for agricultural extension workers and local governments in formulating strategies for the sustainable institutional strengthening of farmers.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze the marketing decisions that influence the performance of corn farming in Wonuambuteo Village, Lambandia District. The informants in this study are corn farmers residing in Wonuambuteo Village. The informants were selected using purposive sampling, based on criteria established by the researcher. Consequently, the study encompassed 35 corn farmers. The present study employed a qualitative approach. The data were collected through a combination of observation and in-depth interviews. The objective of this study is to examine the factors that influence farming performance, marketing decisions, and the income of corn farmers. The analysis of research data was conducted using qualitative descriptive analysis. The present study employed a qualitative descriptive analysis, which was conducted through three stages: data reduction, data analysis, and data interpretation. Specialized analysis was also conducted using an income formula. The results of the study show that corn farming performance in Wonuambuteo Village has shown positive results thanks to the use of agricultural tools that support efficiency and productivity. Farmers utilize tools such as tractors, high-quality seeds, fertilizers, and harvesting tools that help increase land productivity and reduce working hours. Additionally, marketing decisions have a significant impact on farming performance, with marketing facilities such as traditional and modern markets providing sales channels for corn products. Farmers with land areas of 2.50–3.00 hectares achieve the highest income, ranging from Rp13,000,000 to Rp15,000,000, indicating that increasing land area contributes to improved efficiency and better production outcomes.

Abstract

The distribution of subsidized fertilizers is a strategic government policy aimed at improving farmers' access to agricultural inputs and enhancing lowland rice productivity. The effectiveness of this policy depends not only on the efficiency of the distribution system but also on the proper utilization of fertilizers in accordance with recommended agricultural practices. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of subsidized fertilizer distribution based on the Six Right Principles and to describe its utilization in lowland rice farming in Bente and Rangka Villages, Kabawo District, Muna Regency. A quantitative approach employing a survey method was applied. A total of 56 farmers were selected using proportional random sampling from a population of 125 subsidized fertilizer recipients. Data were collected through structured interviews, field observations, and documentation, and were analyzed descriptively using frequency distributions and percentages. This study offers a more comprehensive perspective by integrating the evaluation of subsidized fertilizer distribution based on the Six Right Principles with fertilizer utilization practices at the farm level. The results revealed that the implementation of subsidized fertilizer distribution successfully fulfilled five of the six indicators, namely the right place (85.71%), the right type (100%), the right price (78.57%), the right time (71.43%), and the right target (100%). However, the right quantity indicator remained relatively low (44.64%) because the allocated fertilizer was insufficient to meet farmers' actual needs. Regarding fertilizer utilization, all respondents applied the recommended types of fertilizers (Urea and NPK), while 69.64% applied the recommended fertilizer dosage and 76.79% applied fertilizers at the appropriate time. The insufficient quantity of subsidized fertilizers prompted some farmers to adjust fertilizer application rates, indicating that the effectiveness of fertilizer utilization was strongly influenced by the quality of the distribution system. Therefore, improving the effectiveness of the subsidized fertilizer policy requires refining allocation mechanisms based on site-specific fertilizer requirements, regularly updating the electronic Definitive Group Needs Plan (e-RDKK) database, and strengthening the role of agricultural extension workers in promoting balanced fertilization practices to enhance the productivity and sustainability of lowland rice farming.
