Abstract The integrated rice and cattle system (SITT) is an innovative technology package to increase agricultural production and encourage zero waste fulfillment. The technology components introduced include new HYV, fertilization, young seedlings, organic fertilizers, Jajar Legowo, IPM, bio urine, and compost. Although it has been implemented at the farmer level, there are insufficient details of its adoption performance; therefore, it is necessary to measure the adoption to evaluate the technology dissemination. This research objective was to analyze the farmers’ adoption level, adoption period, and technology application frequency. The research was conducted in Serdang Bedagai, North Sumatra, in 2018. The respondents were 40 farmers (cooperator and noncooperator), and the respondents’ selection was made purposively. The data obtained were analyzed using qualitative and quantitative descriptive approaches. The results showed that the adoption of technology by cooperator farmers was higher than noncooperator farmers, both from the perspective of each technology component and the level of adoption. The average duration of technology adoption by farmers was 44,0% require more than one planting season, 28,4% require one planting season, and 27,6% require less than one planting season. The frequency of technology application showed that farmers who apply SITT technology more than two planting seasons were 66,0%, exactly two planting seasons were 24,5%, and one planting season was 9,5%. Thus, to increase farmers’ adoption of technology, the technology should be suited to farmers’ preferences and needs, increase profits and ensure that the technology is available in the field. Moreover, providing continuous assistance during the introduction of technology.

Adoption Of Technology

Resource optimization is a key concern for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Cloud Computing, as the recent generation in computing technology of the fourth industrial revolution, has emerged as the main standard of service and resource delivery. As cloud computing has grown into a mature technology and is being rapidly adopted in many HEIs across the world, retaining customers of this innovative technology has become a challenge to the cloud service providers. Current research trends on cloud computing have sought to study the acceptance or adoption of technology; however, little research has been devoted to the continuance use in an organizational setting. To address this gap, this study aims to investigate the antecedents of cloud computing continuance use in HEIs. Hence, drawing on the prior literature in organizational-level continuance, this research established a conceptual model that extends and contextualizes the IS continuance model through the lens of the TOE framework (i.e., technological, organizational, and environmental influences). The results of a pilot study, conducted through a survey with information and communications technology (ICT) decision makers, and based on the proposed conceptual model, indicate that the instrument is both reliable and valid, and so point the way towards further research. The paper closes with a discussion of the research limitations, contribution, and future directions.

The existing cultivation pattern of chilli pepper in Riau Islands is unable to fulfilled all market demands. Dissemination of double production (Produksi Lipat Ganda or Proliga) technology was an effort to increase chilli pepper production in Riau Islands. This study aims to analyze the efficiency of chilli pepper farming with Proliga technology application. This research was conducted in Mei 2019 until April 2020 at Maju Mandiri Farmer Group, Setokok Village, Bulang District, Batam City. The primary data obtained from interviews, and the secondary data obtained from related agencies. Data analysis was carried out by calculating costs, revenues, income, and farming efficiency. Based on analysis results, it can be concluded that chilli pepper farming with Proliga technology generates an income of IDR 699,000,000, and the cost incurred in one planting season (12 months) reached IDR 213,193,500. Therefore, the income obtained by farmers is IDR 485,806,500 / hectare. This chilli pepper farming is considered efficient and profitable for farmers, as indicated by the R/C ratio value of 3.27.

Level Analysis

The debate about NGO credibility has become more forceful and flashing in recent years.On one side there are prominent scholars who accredit the NGOs with 'social skill' and potential to make the development more humane and delivering. At the other extreme there are scholars who maintain that NGOs do not qualify the 'distinction of their own claims'. The findings of the investigating agencies in some Third World nations have unearthed the ‘secret agenda’ and unholy alliances of the foreign funded NGOs. Such contentions call for micro level analysis of NGO credibility, particularly, in the context of sustainable development. The present study is a scientific attempt in this direction. The authors have adopted an explorative-cum analytical study design with the tools of content analysis of the 'media portrayals' of the NGOs and field observation for a holistic analysis. The findings of the study underline the need for adoption of innovative technology by the NGOs for refreshing their public legitimacy in the changed socio-economic setting.

An Implemented pot experiment  has been conducted in Al-Qadisiyah city - sadder AL- Yusufiya - District 9 in Spring planting season 2016 to study the effect of the overlap between the mineral , organic and bio fertilization in some  growth indicators to maize crop (Zea mays) in Silt Loam texture soils with factorial experiement according to completely randomize  design (Complete random design) and with  three replicates. The expenneit has been done by adding  mineral fertilizers (240 kg N. ha-1 and 80 kg P. ha-1 and 120 kg K. ha-1) three levels (0, 50% and 100%) respectively; and two levels of organic fertilizer (0 and 10 Mg. ha-1) respectively; and two levels of bio-fertilizer (0 and 2 ml. L-1) respectively to the irrigation water. The addition of mineral , organic and bio fertilizers has a significant effecct on the dry matter amount  and the treatment (M2O1B1) is given the highest average of  the dry matter,which reaches to 57.27 g.pot-1 as compared with the control treatment (M0O0B0), reacches to 20.46 g.pot-1 and the increasing percentage reach to 179.91%. There are no significant differences between (M1O1B1) and (M2O1B1). The triple overlap among the metal and organic fertilizers and bio has a significant effect on increasing the percentages of N, P and K in maize plants%, the treatment (M2O1B1) has achieved the highest average of 3.67% N and 0.49% P and 2.19% K respectively, compared with the treatment control (M0O0B0) 2.21% N and 0.23% P and 1.33% K sequentially with  increasing which presentage reached  to  66.06 N% and 113.04 P% and 64.66 K%. There are no significant differences between the treatments (M1O1B1) and (M2O1B1).
