(criteria for poverty in Sajogyo and the World Bank) and technical support using the Carrying Capacity Ratio formula. The results showed that the economic carrying capacity equivalent to rice was 312.52 kg/capita/year or US$ 0.55/capita/day and the welfare of farmers was classified as poor. The contribution of economic carrying capacity to the ability to fulfill staple food of farmer households is 65.11%.

Each farming household can have a planting area that is 1.2 ha larger than the average land ownership. Farming households can own a planting area of 1.2 ha larger than their average land ownership.
