Abstract

The regency of Kulon Progo, located in the western part of Yogyakarta Special Region, owns the lowest ratio of paddy fields relative to arable land, i.e., 0.27%, compared to other regencies in the region. Effective management of paddy farming technology is crucial to enhance productivity. This research aims to describe the management of rice farming technology and to analyze the allocative efficiency of rice production factors in Kulon Progo. The study employs cross-sectional data collected through observations and surveys using an open-ended questionnaire. The sampling method used is proportional stratified random sampling, with a total of 105 respondents, of which 55 from Panjatan Sub-district and 50 from Sentolo Sub-district. Data analysis methods include quantitative descriptive, multiple linear regression with the Cobb-Douglas production function, and calculation of allocative efficiency index (Ki) tested with the one-sample Wilcoxon test. The findings show that the majority of farmers use superior Ciherang seed varieties, insecticides for pest control, and adopt the rice cultivation method known as "jajar legowo". Moreover, a significant number of farmers have not yet adopted combine harvesters due to landscape unsuitability. Key production factors affecting rice output include land area, seed quantity, fertilizer application, farming experience, hybrid variety adoption, technical irrigation use, and combine harvester utilization. Allocative efficiency analysis reveals non-efficient land allocation, suggesting a need for land-use reduction. Meanwhile, seeds and fertilizers use are inefficient, warranting more allocations of these inputs.

Abstract

Variations in land ownership status, such as self-owned land, rental farming, and profit-sharing system, are believed to influence the productivity of rice farming. In Kulon Progo Regency, the shrinking agricultural land area due to infrastructure development, rising price of farm land’s rent, along with an increasing number of farmers without land’s ownership, highlights the urgency of examining the effectiveness of the profit-sharing system. However, empirical evidence regarding its impact on productivity remains limited. This research is aimed to study whether the profit-sharing system achieves similar productivity levels compared to self-owned or rented land. In this research, proportional stratified random sampling is utilized as the main method of acquiring data samples. There are 92 respondents studied in this research. Descriptive quantitative analysis and double linear regression analysis of Cobb-Douglas production function were employed as methods of analysis in this study. The result showed there was no difference in level of productivity between self-owned land farming and rental farming. Fertilizer use and farming experience were found as factors that increase productivity in rice farming, while land area and labor were found as factors that decrease productivity. These findings support Cheung’s theory, which asserts that there is no difference in productivity between profit-sharing and fixed-rent systems. Moreover, the results offer practical insights, suggesting that non-ownership land management, such as rental and profit-sharing, can serve as viable alternatives to improve land accessibility in the agricultural sector, particularly for young farmers.
