Abstract. Hidayat RA, Iskandar J, Gunawan B, Partasasmita R. 2020. Impact of green revolution on rice cultivation practices and production system: A case study in Sindang Hamlet, Rancakalong Village, Sumedang District, West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 1258-1265. In the past, farmers of Sindang Hamlet, Rancakalong Village, West Java practiced the wet-rice (sawah) farming system based on the Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) and belief system. They coordinate their planting schedule according to indigenous calendar known as kalender tani or pranata mangsa (Javanese). The various inputs of the sawah farming system, namely rice seeds, organic fertilizers, and pesticides intensively used originate from the village, made little use of farm supplies obtained through purchased from outside (market). In the early 1970s, the Government of the Republic of Indonesia introduced the Green Revolution to increase the rice production of the wet-rice farming system. The five-farming effort (panca usaha tani) programs, namely the use of the High Yielding Rice Varieties (HYVs), the provision for inorganic chemical fertilizers, the use of synthetic pesticides, the development and improvement of irrigation, and the improvement of methods of rice planting methods were intensively implemented. About ten years later, in 1980s, the sawah farmers of Rancakalong Village, Sumedang District, West Java have adopted the Green Revolution program. As a result, the traditional the wet-rice cultivation practices of Rancakalong farmers that was originally based on the low-external inputs has dramatically changed to the high-external-input agriculture, depending more on artificial inputs, such as inorganic fertilizers, pesticides, fossil energy, and modern rice seeds, which originate from outside of the village and generally have to be purchased. The aim of this study is to document and analyze the changing cultivation practices of the wet-rice farming systems, and rice production systems. Study was undertaken in Sindang Hamlet, Rancakalong Village, Sumedang District, West Java. Method applied in this study was a mixed-method, combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques, including observation, semi-structured interviews, and structured interviews applied to 64 respondents. The result of the study showed that the farmers have stopped their traditional cyclical planting schedule based on kalender tani, most local rice varieties have been replaced by the superior or High Yielding Rice Varieties (HYVs), and farmers have become dependent on external inputs, namely inorganic fertilizers, synthetic fertilizers, modern rice seeds, and fossil energy. Consequently, the HYVs have also more vulnerable to diseases and pests, such as brown plant-hopper (Nilarparvata lugens Stal), and also vulnerable to scarcity of water due to drought caused by climate change. This study stresses that a model agriculture system that is ecologically sound, economically viable, and adaptable must be undertaken to develop sustainable agriculture.

<p>ABSTRAK<br />Penelitian usahatani akar wangi (Vetiver zizanoides Stapt) dilakukan<br />dari bulan Nopember 2003 sampai Oktober 2004 di Kecamatan Samarang,<br />Kabupaten Garut, Jawa Barat. Data aspek sosial ekonomi diambil dari 120<br />petani akar wangi dan 22 pabrik penyuling akar wangi. Percobaan<br />lapangan dilaksanakan lahan pada seluas 3 hektar. Metode penelitian yang<br />digunakan yaitu rancangan acak kelompok dengan 3 pola tanam dan 2<br />ulangan. Perlakuan yang dicoba adalah pola tanam petani, pola tanam<br />introduksi dan pola tanam konservasi. Parameter yang diamati adalah berat<br />akar, kadar minyak, tingkat erosi, tingkat produktivitas dan kelayakan<br />ekonomi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari ketiga pola yang<br />diteliti ternyata pola konservasi mempunyai berat akar yang lebih tinggi<br />yaitu 0,74 kg, sedangkan pola petani 0,60 kg dan pola introduksi 0,50 kg.<br />Hasil analisis kadar minyak ketiga pola menunjukkan bahwa kadar minyak<br />pola konservasi dan pola petani tidak berbeda nyata yaitu 2,60% dan<br />2,25%, sedangkan pola introduksi hanya 1,25%. Dari kedua parameter di<br />atas (berat akar dan kadar minyak) dapat disimpulkan bahwa pola<br />konservasi lebih baik dibandingkan dengan pola lainnya. Tingkat erosi<br />yang terjadi di pertanaman akar wangi adalah: (a) pola petani 26,20 ton/ha,<br />(b) pola introduksi 19,40 ton/ha, dan (c) pola konservasi 17,80 ton/ha.<br />Hasil pengukuran tingkat erosi ini diamati selama 6 (enam) bulan dan<br />kondisi di atas masuk kategori tingkat bahaya erosi (TBE), klasifikasi<br />sedang (30 sampai 60 ton/ha/tahun). Tingkat produktivitas yang dicapai<br />dari ketiga pola usahatani tersebut yaitu (a) pola petani sebesar 16.000 kg/<br />ha/tahun, (b) pola introduksi 15.000kg/ha/tahun, dan (c) pola konservasi<br />18.000kg/ha/tahun. Dari ketiga pola tersebut yang tertinggi adalah pola<br />konservasi, tetapi analisis kelayakan ekonomi pada ketiga pola adalah :<br />Pola konservasi : B/C ratio 3,26, NPV Rp 7.852.000, dan IRR 18,75%;<br />Pola introduksi : B/C ratio 2,03, NPV Rp 5.089.000, dan IRR 18,75%;<br />Pola petani : B/C ratio 3,60, NPV Rp7.130.000, dan IRR 18,50%.<br />Kata kunci : Akar wangi, Vetiver zizanoides Stapt, usahatani, konservasi,<br />erosi, produksi, kadar minyak, Jawa Barat</p><p><br />ABSTRACT<br />Study on vetiver farming system in Garut District<br />The study of Vetiver (Vetiver zizanoides Stapt) farming system was<br />conducted from November 2003 to October 2004 in Samarang, Sub<br />District, Garut, West Java. The primary data were collected through the<br />interview of 120 vetiver farmers and 22 vetiver oil processors, and from 3<br />hectars field trial. The study used a randomized block design with 3<br />cropping patterns and two replications. Parameters observed were root<br />weight, oil content, erosion level, productivity level, and economic<br />feasibility. The research result indicated that conservation pattern<br />produced the higher root weight, conservation pattern 0.74 kg, farmer<br />0.60 kg and introduction pattern 0.50 kg. Result of oil analysis were the oil<br />content of conservation and farmer patterns were not significantly<br />different, namely 2.60% and 2.25%, while the introduction pattern was<br />only 1.25%. From the two parameters (root weight and oil content), it was<br />indicated that the conservation pattern was better. The erosion level on<br />vetiver farms at farmer, introduction and conservation patterns were 26.20<br />ton/ha, 19.40 ton/ha and 17.80 ton/ha, respectively. The erosion level<br />above was classified as TBE, while moderate level (30 – 60 ton/ha/year).<br />The productivity levels at farmer, introduction and conservation patterns<br />were 16,000 kg/ha/year, 15,000 kg/ha/year and 18,000 kg/ha/year,<br />respectively.

Abstract. Fatimah IN, Iskandar J, Partasasmita R. 2020. Ethnoecology of paddy-fish integrative farming (minapadi) in Lampegan Village, West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 4419-4432. In the past, the traditional paddy-fish integrative farming (minapadi) was predominantly undertaken by rice farmers in West Java, particularly in the water abundant areas. Currently, however, the practice of the rice-fish system has been dramatically reduced due to the Green Revolution programs, including water pollution that may have affected fish farming in paddy fields. Although the rice-fish systems have rarely been practiced in West Java villages, some farmer groups of Lampegan Village, Ibun Sub-district, Bandung District are still practicing the rice-fish farming system. The purpose of this study is to collect and document the traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of Lampegan Village about the rice-fish system farming managements, including data on various fish species that are widely cultivated in the community, cultural practices of the rice-fish farming management, and benefits of the rice-fish farming system. A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was used, with an ethnoecological approach. Techniques of data collection, such as observation, semi-structured interviews, or deep interviews, and structured interviews were employed in this study. The results of the study show that the farmers of the rice-fish farming in Lampegan Village, Bandung District own rich and deep knowledge of fish species and practice of the minapadi system. The TEK of the rice-fish farming management system has been inherited from ancestors and is mixed with western scientific knowledge. The rice-fish farming systems have provided some ecological and socio-economic benefits for village people.
