The development of rice irrigated farming is constrained by the conversion of land agricultural to non-agricultural. Therefore, policy to develop upland rice production in dryland and rainfed lowland is increasingly being implemented. Efforts to expand the application of technological innovations as a lever of upland rice production have intensified by introducing new superior varieties of upland rice. This research aims to analyze farmers' attitudes and satisfaction levels with introducing upland rice to attributes based. The location of this research is in Tegalgiri Village, Nogosari District, Boyolali Regency. Primary data were obtained through a survey method of 35 farmers who planted the Rindang 1, Rindang 2, Inpago 10, and Inpago 12 varieties. Farmer attitudes were analyzed using the Fishbein Multi-attribute Model, while farmer satisfaction level was analyzed using the customer satisfaction index (CSI). The results are the attributes "production" and "resistance to pests and diseases" were agronomic performance which was the most essential and primary consideration for farmers in choosing varieties. Farmers have a positive attitude towards the four new superior varieties. The meaning is that farmers want to adopt and plant the new superior varieties of upland rice. Farmers' satisfaction levels are in the "satisfied" to "very satisfied" category of the four new superior varieties. Hopefully, the new superior upland rice varieties that were introduced can be a choice of varieties by farmers.   Keywords: atributtes, farmer’s attitude, satisfaction level, upland rice, superior varieties

The intermittent and widespread occurrence of drought in rainfed upland rice fields across sub-Sahara Africa has led to tremendous decrease in food security in the region. Although high yielding, drought tolerant varieties have been developed over years to mitigate this trend, limited adoption had been recorded for most of these materials. This study investigated farmers’ perceptions on drought stress and their preferred traits in new upland rice varieties across two major upland rice growing states in Nigeria. Participatory Rural Appraisal was conducted among 119 rice farmers using comparative approach, probing and semi structured interviews. Result based on farmers knowledge of changes in rainfall pattern and preferred traits such as plant architecture and grain shapes in a new upland rice variety differed significantly across the two state. The results identified drought stress as one of the main constraints to upland rice production across communities. The ideal upland rice variety desired by most respondents in both states should be of medium plant height (115-130cm) characterized by white, long and bold grains. This study has demonstrated the importance of understanding farmer’s desired traits in a new upland rice variety and the need to incorporate identified traits in creation of resilient new upland rice varieties adaptable to rain-fed upland rice growing regions of Nigeria.

One of the efforts to improve rice production and productivity In Provinsi Jambi is by using Senam Dua (Sekali Tanam Dua Kali Panen). Senam Dupa means one-time cultivation with two harvests, a rice-farming approach in tidal land that combines traditional rice cultivation systems (Crop Index 100 local rice varieties) with intensive farming (high-yielding variety) in one overlay to achieve Crop Index 180. Kecamatan Berbak is one of the rice production centers in Tanjung Jabung Timur, Jambi. Senam Dupa has been introduced in order to increase rice production In Kecamatan Berbak. This is due to the tidal type of rice field in Kecamatan Berbak, and difficult water regulation, so it is not possible to plant two times. The increased rice production and productivity will be followed by increased farmers income. The purpose of this research are to know the income of rice farming that using Senam Dupa system and conventional system, and to see the difference of farmer income. This research uses primary data that obtained from farmer interviews with a questionnaire guide. Then the obtained data is tabulated and processed with SPSS software. The analysis methode used in this research is the difference of two means test methode. The results of this research indicate that Zhitung (5,099) ≥ Ztabel (1,645), so that the hypothesis stating that the income of Senam Dupa is higher than the conventional rice farmers is acceptable. Senam Dupa rice farmers income Rp. 2,050,588,7 /ha/month at 95% degree of confidence significantly higher than the income of conventional rice farmers that is equal to Rp. 1.770.083.06 /Ha/month.Keyword : Senam Dupa, Kecamatan Berbak, Farmer Income.Salah satu upaya peningkatan produksi dan produktivitas padi Di Provinsi Jambi adalah dengan cara Senam Dupa (Sekali Tanam Dua Kali Panen). Teknologi Senam Dupa diistilahkan dengan sekali menanam dua kali panen, yaitu sebuah pendekatan usaha tani padi di lahan pasang surut yang memadukan sistem budidaya padi tradisional (IP 100 varietas padi lokal) dengan pertanian intensif (varietas unggul) dalam satu hamparan sehingga mencapai IP 180. Kecamatan Berbak merupakan salah satu kecamatan sentra produksi padi yang terdapat pada Kabupaten Tanjung Jabung Timur, Jambi. Guna peningkatan produksi padi Di Kecamatan Berbak  telah diperkenalkan sistem Senam Dupa. Hal ini dikarenakan jenis sawah pada Kecamatan Berbak adalah sawah pasang surut, dan pengaturan tata air tidak mudah, sehingga tidak memungkinkan untuk melakukan penanaman dua kali. Peningkatan produksi dan produktivitas padi akan diikuti dengan peningkatan pendapatan petani. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui besarnya pendapatan usaha tani padi yang menerapkan sistem Senam Dupa dan sistem konvensional, serta melihat perbedaan pendapatan petani yang menerapkan sistem Senam Dupa dan petani yang menerapkan sistem konvensional. Penelitian ini menggunakan data primer yang didapatkan dari wawancara petani dengan panduan kuesioner, kemudian data yang diperoleh ditabulasi, dan diolah dengan software SPSS. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah metode uji beda dua rata-rata. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Zhitung(5,099) ≥ Ztabel (1,645) sehingga hipotesis yang menyatakan bahwa pendapatan petani padi sistem Senam Dupa yang lebih tinggi dari petani padi sistem Konvensional dapat diterima. Pendapatan petani padi sistem Senam Dupa Rp. 2.050.588,7 /Ha/bulan secara signifikan pada derajat kepercayaan 95% lebih tinggi dari pendapatan petani padi sistem Konvensional yaitu sebesar Rp. 1.770.083,06 /Ha/bulan.Kata Kunci : Senam Dupa, Kecamatan Berbak, Pendapatan Petani Padi

The study investigated the adoption of improved rice varieties by farmers in Bende Local Government Area, Abia State, Nigeria. A multi-stage random sampling technique was used to select a total of 120 rice farmers. Descriptive statistics and tobit regression model were employed to analyze the data. Results showed that cumulatively 73.3% of the farmers fell within the age range of 20-50 years, most (86.7%) of the rice farmers were literate. More than half (57.5%) of the rice farmers are females. Result further indicated that 43.3% had household sizes of 5-8 persons. A fair proportion (33.3%) had been in rice production for 11-15 years, while majority (73.3%) belongs to farmers’ associations. Fairly good (51.6%) were aware of the improved rice varieties and used it, while a substantial number (93.3%) number of the farmers cultivated swamp rice. MAS 240 variety (mean=3.13), Faro 7 variety (mean=2.95), Faro II variety (mean=2.75), Faro 8 variety (mean=2.70.) and Faro 48 variety (mean=2.68) were highly adopted by farmers in the area. The Chi square value of 7.290 was significant at 1.0% probability level and indicates goodness of fit of the model used. Coefficient of age (-0.023), and gender (-1.967) were negative and significant at 10.0% and 1.0% level of probability respectively. The coefficient of education level (0.041), farm size (0.940), farming experience (0.206) and membership of farmers’ association (0.168) were significant at 5.0% and were positively related to adoption of improved rice varieties. Farmers encountered various problems of paucity of funds (35.8%), scarcity of inputs (22.5%), and dearth of information (20.89). Based on these findings it was recommended that rice farmers should form cooperative societies to enable them raise funds for buying agricultural equipment to boost rice production. More young male farmers should be sensitized and motivated by the state government to take up rice production since female farmers dominate rice production in the area. Extension agencies should increase the level of information dissemination and teaching to the rice farmers’ clientele.Key words: Adoption, Improved Varieties, Rice

<p>In the middle of 1980s, rice self-sufficiency in Indonesia has been achieved, but the growth of rice production slowed down since the 1990s. Narrow genetic variability of released rice varieties contributed largely to the occurrence of leveling of potential rice yield over the past decades. To enlarge the genetic variability, an intersubspecies crossing of Koshihikari (japonica) and IR36 (indica) has been performed. Through this crossing, three high yielding and high yield quality promising lines of KI 37, KI 238, and KI 730 have been obtained. The objective of this study was to evaluate the superiorities of these lines through multi-location yield trials, pests, diseases, and grain qualities examinations. Examination methods used followed the release food crops variety procedure issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture. The result of examinations showed that the average yield of KI 730 was 7.47 t/ha, it was significantly higher than that of Ciherang (6,73 t/ha). KI 730 has a good grain quality, with translucent milled rice, a high percentage of milled rice (78.0%) and head rice (91.01%). The texture of its cooking rice was soft, sticky, with the amylose content of 20.41%. In addition, pests and diseases resistances of KI 730 were better than those of other lines tested. After evaluation by National Food Crops Release Variety Team, the KI 730 line was released as a national superior variety with the name of Tropiko. Tropiko should become an alternative variety to grow widely in order to increase national rice production and farmers income.</p>

Central Sulawesi’s rice productivity in 2019 was lower compared to that in 2018. One of the problems for the low productivity of paddy in Central Sulawesi is the application of low quality of seeds. Ministry of Agriculture through Central Sulawesi AIAT has introduced a numbers of new high yielding varieties (HYV) to increase rice production and productivity. To support the dissemination of new HYV, it is important to study the rice varieties that mostly used by farmers in Central Sulawesi. The objectives of this study are to identify the rice varieties and the preferred characteristics of rice varieties that farmers usually used in Central Sulawesi. This study used primary and secondary data. Data were analyzed descriptively and presented in tables and graphs. The results show that most farmers in Central Sulawesi use Mekongga, Ciherang, and Cisantana varieties, and local varieties such as Peluncur, Dewi, Ntabone and others. Farmers generally prefer varieties which tend to produce higher yields and resistant to pests and diseases. To maintain the availability of the varieties in Central Sulawesi, it is important to train farmers to become breeders.

The aims of this study are to measure the technical efficiency (TE) of Cambodian household&rsquo;s rice production and trying to determine its main influencing factors using the stochastic frontier production function. The study utilized primary data collected from 301 rice farmers in three selected districts of Battambang by structured questionnaires. The empirical results indicated the level of household rice output varied according to differences in the efficiency of the production processes. The mean TE is 0.34 which means that famers produce 34% of rice at best practice at the current level of production inputs and technology, indicates that rice output has the potential of being increased further by 66% at the same level of inputs if farmers had been technically efficient. Furthermore, between 2013-2015, TE of household&rsquo;s rice production recorded -14.3% decline rate due to highly affected of drought during dry season of 2015. Moreover, evidence reveals that land, fertilizer, and pesticide are the major influencing input factors of household&rsquo;s rice production, while disaster, education of household head, family size and other crops&rsquo; cultivated area are core influencing factors decreasing TE. Conversely, the main influencing factors increasing TE are irrigated area, number of plot area and sex of household head.

The traditional approach to modeling productive efficiency assumes that technology is constant across the sample. However, farms in different regions may face different production opportunities, and the technologies they employ may differ due to environmental factors. Therefore, rather than using a traditional stochastic frontier model in such cases, a stochastic meta-frontier (SMF) analysis is recommended to account for environmental factors between regions. It follows that differences in environmental factors between the upland and lowland regions in Anambra State, Nigeria, may result in farmers producing rice under different production and environmental conditions. Using the SMF model, this study, for the first time, determines technical efficiency (TE) and technological gap ratios (TGRs) of rice production from the upland and lowland regions in the Awka North Local Government Area of Anambra State, Nigeria. Our data are from a cross-section sample of randomly selected rice farmers. Results reveal that lowland regional rice producers are on average, significantly more technically efficient (91.7%) than their upland counterparts (84.2%). Additionally, mean TGRs associated with lowland rice farmers are higher (92.1%) than their corresponding upland producers (84.7%). While the upland rice producers are less technically efficient and further away from their full potential, results indicate that both sets of farmers do not use advanced technologies to match the industry’s potential. We suggest that agricultural policy should focus on providing regionally specific technologies, such as improved rice varieties that fit the working environment of the lagging area, to help rice farmers improve their resource efficiency and minimize technological gaps.

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the major staple food in the Nepalese context. Chitwan district of Nepal was purposively selected to analyze the rice production from the socio-economic and environmental perspective. A total of 100 rice growing farmers, 50 organic and 50 inorganic were selected as the sample for the purpose of the study using the simple random method of sampling. Primary data were collected through a pre-tested semi-structure interview schedule and key informant interviews; secondary data were collected reviewing related publications. Descriptive statistics, multiple regression and chi-square test were used for data analysis. The multiple regression revealed that the four explanatory variables included in the model: age of the household head, primary occupation of the household head, number of family members involved in agriculture and subsidy in inputs for rice farming were found to have positive and statistically significant effect on rice yield (P<0.01). Moreover, chi-square test revealed that the farming practices that contributes to climate change mitigation such as: minimum tillage practice (P<0.05), crop diversification (P<0.01), green manuring (P<0.01), agro forestry practice (P<0.05), incorporating crop residues (P<0.1), weed management practice (P<0.01) and pest management practice (P<0.01)were found to be well adopted by the organic rice farmers, in contrast, the farming practices of inorganic rice farmers were statistically and significantly different in this respect. Government should make such policy that could grave the attention of the Nepalese people towards organic agriculture; moreover, encouraging them to make it their primary occupation.
