Abstract

The demand for clean water in Pekalongan City is rising due to population growth, urbanization, and industrial and hotel development. The scarcity of surface water and contamination of water sources are prompting residents to turn to groundwater. However, excessive groundwater use for domestic and industrial needs could potentially lead to problems like tidal waves and floods. Despite these risks, groundwater remains a crucial source of clean water for many. This study assesses community awareness and perceptions regarding the use and conservation of groundwater. The research, conducted from July to August 2023, involved a survey, comprehensive interviews, and field observations with 200 participants. A quantitative descriptive analysis and the Chi-Square test were applied to the data. Findings reveal that while most people recognize the adverse environmental impacts of groundwater exploitation and the necessity for its conservation, insufficient government outreach has led to poor conservation practices. The study also found a positive community perception towards groundwater use and its conservation. Although only a few respondents had low awareness, their attitudes could potentially affect overall community consciousness. A significant correlation between knowledge and public perception of groundwater use and its preservation was identified, suggesting that better understanding could bolster conservation efforts. Nonetheless, enhancements in various programs, particularly those related to groundwater conservation techniques like rainwater harvesting and public water utility (PDAM) initiatives, are essential..

Abstract

Varietas unggul baru (VUB) merupakan inovasi teknologi yang berperan dalam peningkatan produksi padi. Pada tahun 2021, VUB Inpari 32, Inpari 36, Inpari 46, Inpari 45, Inpari NutriZinc, dan Digdaya diperkenalkan di Desa Mluweh Kecamatan Ungaran Timur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi pertimbangan petani dalam memilih VUB, menganalisis persepsi petani terhadap aspek agronomi VUB, serta menentukan varietas padi yang dominan dipilih petani. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei terhadap 31 petani dengan alat bantu kuesioner, dan dianalisis secara deskriptif kualitatif serta kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 77,41% petani lebih menyukai Inpari 46 dan 74,19% menyukai Inpari 32. Kedua varietas tersebut disukai karena memiliki ketahanan terhadap organisme pengganggu tumbuhan (OPT) dan produksi yang tinggi. Untuk meningkatkan adopsi dan keberlanjutan usaha tani padi, diperlukan dukungan kebijakan dari pemerintah melalui pengembangan VUB yang sesuai dengan preferensi petani, penguatan distribusi benih VUB berkualitas secara berkelanjutan, penyuluhan intensif, serta pemberian insentif bagi petani. Peningkatan adopsi VUB diharapkan dapat meningkatkan produktivitas padi, mendorong peningkatan pendapatan, dan kesejahteraan petani, serta memperkuat ketahanan pangan daerah.
