This study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in productivity between organic and inorganic rice farming, whether there is a significant difference in technical efficiency between organic nd inorganic rice farming, and whether fertilizer costs, labor costs, arable land area, and the length of the use of System of Rice Intensification (SRI) have a significant effect on the organic rice production. The target of this research is the improvement of economic efficiency and organic rice farming productivity in Purworejo District, Central Java. To achieve this target, this study used SRI method. The population was all farmers of inorganic and organic rice farming in Purworejo District. The samples consist of 45 people from organic rice farmers and 45 people from inorganic rice farmers in Ringgit Village, Purworejo. They were collected by random sampling and the data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and quantitative analysis. Descriptive analysis was done by comparing all necesary activities in both organic and inorganic rice farming. The descriptive analysis concludes that there is a difference in terms of the selection of seeds, seedlings, seed treatment before sowing, planting and watering, fertilizing, weeding and pest control. Quantitative analysis is done using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and multiple linear regeresi. The quantitative analysis concludes that there is a significant difference in productivity between organic rice farming and inorganic rice farming. There is a significant difference in technical efficiency between organic rice farming and inorganic rice farming. Fertilizer costs, labor costs, arable land area, and the length of the use of SRI method have a significant effect on the organic rice production.

Research on technical efficiency of organic rice farming was conducted in Tampang Tua Vallage, Pematang Sawa District,Tanggamus Regency, Lampung Province. by using the respondents were 60 people taken by the census of the entire organic rice farmers. The aim of this research to analyze technical efficiency, factors influencing technical efficiency, and source of technical inefficiency of rainfed farm organic rice. Technical efficiency is measured by using frontier production function and is istimated using MLE method with Frontier 4.1c computer program. Estimation source of technical inefficiency applies linear regression model that approach simultaneously using frontier production function. The research result indicates that most variables are significant and have expected signs, except for organik solid feltilizer has not significant. The research olso find that the level of technical efficiency varies from 0.423 to 0.999 with the average of 836. Furthermore, variables of farmers education levels, farm organic rice experience, age of the farmers, frekuency of farmers agricultural extentions, and farmer perception on climate change are influencing to reduce technical inefficiency. Keywords: technical efficiency, organic rice, and rainfed paddy field

AbstractRice is a staple food in East Java, and the average consumption is 100 kg/capita/year. However, rice productivity has declined dramatically in recent years. Food security can be reached by improving the technical efficiency of rice farming, especially in rice farming centers such as East Java Province. This study aims to measure technical efficiency and its determinants using two limit tobit. And it also aims to examine the effect of the technical efficiency of rice farming on food security using logit regression. Technical efficiency will be measured by using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The results show that the technical efficiency of rice farming is very low in East Java. Government assistance, irrigation, and extension have a significant effect on technical efficiency. Meanwhile, membership of farmer organization has no effect on technical efficiency. Around 69% of farmers can be categorized as food secure households. The estimation of logit regression shows that household size, income, land size, education, age, and gender significantly influence food security in East Java. Meanwhile, credit and technical efficiency did not have any significant effect.
