This research was aimed to define the corn farmer's behaviour  in Seluma Regency of Bengkulu  Province on inputs and outputs allocation, and determine  of production factors influencing  corn production.  The research was located in three villages in Seluma Regency, namely Riak Siabun, Sido Luhur,  and Sumber Arum. Sixty two farmers were selected using stratified random sampling  method. In this research, the analitical description was used to analyse farmer  behaviour. In order to determine the input and output allocation of the corn productions,  this research used the function of production  Cobb-Douglas  approach. The result showed found that the behaviour of the farmers to choose corn was due to the corn was easy to sell and cultivate. However, the farmers  found  that it  is  hard to access some production factors,  such as seed, fertilizer,  and pesticide. Their prices were also high, and these were contradicted  to the product's  price which was low. Tis research also found that land area is the main factor that has a significant  impacts on production  while other factors were not.Key words: corn, determined factors, production.

This chapter provides basic understanding of firm performance in emerging markets by focusing on labor productivity and total factor productivity. In the study, labor productivity is measured in terms of average value added per worker. Total factor productivity is obtained from estimations of Cobb-Douglas production function where value added is a function of labor and capital. Data is obtained from the firm-level Enterprise Surveys by the World Bank. According to the results, differences in average labor productivities are significant among the sectors within each emerging region. Also, the value of factor elasticities changes across sectors as well as across regions. Moreover, the elasticity of capital is lower than the elasticity of labor for all sectors in regions. It implies that labor plays a more significant role and the firms are operating in a more labor-intensive production process in emerging markets.

The decision in 2006 to abolish the agricultural tax, which had lasted for thousands of years, contributed to the prosperity of agriculture, and with it the growing importance of soil N2O emissions in China. However, most of the previous literature ignored soil N2O emissions due to their too small share in total agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This paper attempts to take soil N2O emissions as an important variable in the measurement of agricultural green total factor productivity (AGTFP), which incorporates environmental pollution into the analytical framework of agricultural production efficiency. Three impressive results were found. Firstly, soil N2O emissions play an increasingly important role in agricultural GHG emissions. The proportion of soil N2O emissions in agricultural GHG emissions increased from 4.52% in 1998 to 4.83% in 2006, and then to 5.36% in 2016. Secondly, the regional difference of soil N2O emissions in AGTFP is visible. In 2016, although soil N2O emissions accounted for a small proportion (about 5%) of the total agricultural GHG emissions in China, the AGTFP including soil N2O emissions was much lower than that excluding soil N2O emissions, especially in areas with high agricultural and population density. Finally, over time, soil N2O emissions have had an increasing effect on AGTFP. Compared with 1998–2006, the impact of excluding soil N2O emissions on AGTFP in 2007–2016 was more evident than that including soil N2O emissions.

Abstrak. Indonesia merupakan negara agraris karena mayoritas penduduknya bermata pencaharian sebagai petani. Tingginya pertambahan sehingga jumlah penduduk yang bertambah tidak sebanding dengan luas lahan yang tetap. Akibatnya lahan pertanian banyak dialih fungsikan menjadi areal non pertanian. Pada tahun 2017 rata-rata luas lahan yang dikuasai per RTP yaitu 2.589 m2. Akibatnya petani yang memiliki lahan sempit atau bahkan tidak memiliki lahan sawah sendiri akan memilih menggarap lahan sawah orang lain untuk menambah pendapatannya. Hal ini menyebabkan munculnya status penguasaan lahan petani pemilik penggarap, penyewa, penyakap dan pemegang gadai. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pendapatan yang diperoleh pada usahatani padi sawah berdasarkan status penguasaan lahan petani pemilik-penggarap, petani penyakap, petani penyewa dan petani pemegang gadai di Kecamatan Meureudu Kabupaten Pidie Jaya. Penentuan lokasi penelitian ini dilakukan secara sengaja (purposive sampling). Selanjutnya teknik pengambilan sampel ditentukan dengan cara stratified random sampling. Pengambilan sampel berdasarkan sistem penguasaan lahan sebesar 15%. Pengujian hipotesis dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis biaya produksi, penerimaan, pendapatan, R/C Ratio dan Break Event Point (BEP). Hasil analisis pendapatan tertinggi yaitu pada petani dengan status lahan milik sebesar Rp. 8.322.235 /Ha/MT, selanjutnya pendapatan petani dengan status lahan sewa yaitu sebesar Rp. 8.201.947 /Ha/MT. Sedangkan pendapatan petani dengan status lahan gadai sebesar Rp. 8.075.218/Ha/MT. Pendapatan terendah yaitu pada status lahan sakap mencapai Rp. 8.029.151/Ha/MT. Berdasarkan hasil perhitungan R/C Usahatani padi sawah beririgasi pada petani pemilik-penggarap dan petani penyewa lebih menguntungkan dibandingkan dengan petani pemegang gadai dan petani penyakap.Analisys of Rice Farmers Incomes Based on Irrigated Land Tenure Status in The Sub-District of Meureudu Pidie Jaya RegencyAbstract. Indonesia is an agrarian country as the majority of the population worked as farmers. A significant population growth is not comparable with the availability of land area. Therefore, many of agricultural lands have been converted into non-agricultural areas. In 2017, the average of land area was controlled by RTP and reached 2,589 m2. Hence, the farmer who own small land or landless farmer tends to cultivate land of others in order to get the income. Later, it comes up with the term of tenure status; farmer, tenant farmer, sharecropper, and pawn holder. The aim of this study is to know the income of farmer, tenant farmer, sharecropper, and pawn holder in rice farming business based on the tenure status at Meureudu, Pidie Jaya. The location of this study is determined by conducting purposive sampling method. The sampling technique is conducted by using stratified random sampling. The sample is selected based on the percentage of tenure system at 15%. The hypothesis testing is conducted by analyzing the production cost, revenue, income, R/C Ratio and Break Event Point (BEP). The findings indicate that the analysis of the highest income is earned by the farmers who own the land of Rp. 8.322.235/Ha/MT and then the income of tenant farmers with the status of rental land of Rp. 8.201.947/Ha/MT. While the income of farmers with pawn land status are Rp. 8.075.218/Ha/MT. The lowest income is earned by sharecroppers of Rp. 8.029.151/Ha/MT. Based on the calculation of R/C; the irrigated paddy farming on farmer and tenant farmers is more profitable than sharecroppers and pawn holders.

For getting the area taken as the sample, this research uses stratified random sampling. While the analysis used in this study is descriptive method. The result of this research shows that 1) the main stone as the material for forming the land consists of sandstone, tuff of sand, limestone and clay (eaten for medicinal puposes); the relief is wave until making the hill, the plant consists of jati (teak), sonokeling, and the seasonal plants that exist in tegalan (dry field near the rie field but used for vegetables and other secondary crops), farm, and tebu (sugar cane) land. The land that has not influenced by the amine fertilizer, the characteristi of pH soil is base (more than 7,5). The structure of crumbs up to clump soil and texture of clay which have sand are relevant with jati (teak) and sonokeling growth. 2) the chemical elements of fluid organi fertilizer in Banker are not relevant with the chemical elements which are proposed by Paluraya Company. The element of nitrogen proposed is 4% while the result of the research shows 3,93%; 3,6%; 2,26%; 0,887%; 0,09%; 0,137%; 0,171%; 0,156%; 0,187%; 0,167%; 0,175%; and 0,108%. The pH of the fertilizer proposed is 5,5 – 6,5 while the finding of the research shows there are pH 4,65; pH 3,6; pH 4,5; and pH 5,41. The element of phosphate proposed is 0,3% while the result of the research shows that is less of 0,3%, they are 0,22%; 0,1%; 0,001%; 0,0053%; 0,0095%; 0,0077%; 0,0053%; 0,0047%; 0,0052%; 0,0055%; and 0,0072%.

Under both Chinese-style fiscal decentralization (vertical competition) and promotion tournament systems (horizontal competition), the economic development system used by the government determines whether local government competition significantly influences green total factor productivity (GTFP). Moreover, market segmentation, an important strategic tool for local government competition, will significantly impact GTFP because of the implied changes in production efficiency and blocked factor flows. This study applies GMM and the mediation effect model to explore the relationship between local government competition and GTFP from the market segmentation perspective using statistical data from 30 provinces from 2006 to 2017 in China. Overall, our results demonstrate that local government competition significantly inhibits GTFP promotion. Local government competition also has a negative impact on GTFP by promoting market segmentation. As a mediating variable, the market segmentation coefficient was statistically significant. Considering regional heterogeneity, in the eastern region, local government competition has no significant inhibitory effect on GTFP. Moreover, market segmentation has no intermediary effect. In the central and western regions, GTFP remains significantly inhibited by local government competition, and the mediation effect of market segmentation is significant. Finally, our empirical results are robust.

Grain production is vital to the national economy and people’s livelihood, and improving grain production efficiency is of great significance to the sustainable development of China’s economy and society. From the perspective of financial support, using the DEA global Malmquist productivity index model and based on the data of 13 main grain producing areas in China from 2001 to 2017, this paper discusses the evolution characteristics and regional distribution differences of the total factor productivity index of grain production in China’s main grain producing areas. The results show that from 2001 to 2017, the total factor productivity index of grain production in China’s main grain producing areas showed an overall fluctuation trend of gradual decline, with an average annual decline of 7.3%. From the perspective of spatial analysis, the grain production efficiency in China’s main grain producing areas is characterized by uneven spatial development, which is generally manifested as the decreasing trend from the central region to the eastern and western regions. Meanwhile, it can be seen from the decomposition index that the change of total factor productivity of grain production in China’s main grain producing areas mainly depends on the change of technical efficiency.
