<p>Smallholding rubber productivity in Indonesia is still relatively low due to low cultivation technology adoption. The characteristics of smallholder plantations, with limited land tenure and capital, require a specific approach compared to large plantations. This article is aimed to inform rubber cultivation innovations to improve smallholder rubber productivity. Land conservation can increase the opportunity for developing rubber in sub-optimal environments such as peatlands, tides and high-elevated areas. Plant breeding activities in Indonesia have resulted IRR superior clones series with high yield potential (more than 1,500 kg/ha/yr), vigorous growth, and resistance to main diseases. Modification of planting space can increase land productivity and alternative income for farmers during immature period. To obtain the high yield, the clonal typology harvesting system supported by latex diagnosis can optimize the potential of clones and prevent tapping panel dryness (TPD). To increase technology adoption at the farm level, the role of extension workers, farmer groups, and support from the government is required.</p><p>Keywords: Rubber, farmers, technology, productivity</p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p><strong>PERAN TEKNOLOGI BUDI DAYA DAN POLA TANAM PILIHAN PETANI DALAM MENINGKATKAN PRODUKTIVITAS KARET RAKYAT </strong></p><p>Produktivitas tanaman karet rakyat di Indonesia masih tergolong rendah, terutama disebabkan oleh adopsi teknologi budi daya belum optimal.

The role of agriculture in the economic development of this country is still very important, besides being a fuel provider, this sector also contributes significantly to the development of workforce which is expected to have an increase in the change in the level of poverty. The Ministry of Agriculture has a vision and mission in alleviating poverty by rolling out various forms of programs to increase capital for farmers. Farmers who have developed their level of education, improved changes in the economic and political structure, began to understand to form a farmer group that had the goal of obtaining and obtaining mutual assistance included in the agricultural program of the government, such as the UPSUS Pajale Program. Farmers who are members of farmer groups will strengthen the ability of their groups to manage and channel the Pajale UPSUS Program assistance that requires improving farm safety consisting of indicators; the role of members of farmer groups, suitability of group services, collectivity, and resolution of local wisdom that still requires in its farming activities. The success of farmer groups can not be separated from social capital which is the main foundation that must be owned by farmers as group members. Mangkuprawira (2010) describes the support of social capital in farmers such as social norms, mutual trust, networking, cooperation, mutual relations, participation, and commitment that will be directly connected to the success of the UPSUS Pajale (soybean) program being rolled out by the government, and seen from three indicators namely; successful output, successful results, and successful benefits. The UPSB Pajale Program in East Lampung Regency is held from February to March 2019. The data used are primary and secondary data with the Mix-method research method. The sampling technique used was the Proportional Stratified Random Sampling with a total sample of 140 farmers who were members of a farmer group receiving the 2017 UPSUS Pajale Kedelai Program in East Lampung Regency. Data processing is done qualitatively and quantitatively. Data is arranged qualitatively using descriptive analysis, while quantitative data is processed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis, which uses the LISREL 8.80 program. The results showed the value of R2 = 0.71, which means that the second variable namely Farmer Institutional Performance and the Existence of Farmer Social Capital contributed 71 percent and was significant to the Success of the UPSUS Pajale Program in East Lampung Regency.Keywords: Farming Institution, Existence of Social Capital, and UPSUS Pajale Program

The study of entrepreneurship and the adoption of innovations in farming so far shows a one-sided approach using a single equation model. It is not able to explore more in-depth information to improve farm management. This study aims to study (i) the performance of farming, (ii) the role of entrepreneurship and the adoption of innovative tractor use, and (iii) find the relationship between entrepreneurship, adoption of innovation, and the application of cultivation technology to the performance of lowland rice farming. The study was conducted in the village of Mattiro Ade, Patampanua sub-district, Pinrang Regency, South Sulawesi province. The survey was done on 50 lowland rice farmers who applied the tractor and combine harvester technology. The study uses a descriptive approach and the method of path analysis (partly least square). The results showed that the technology of tractor and combine harvester could improve farming performance, with an average yield of 6.62 tons of rice per hectare, a profit of 21.9 million rupiahs per hectare, with an R/C ratio of 3.21. Farmers exhibit perceptions of entrepreneurship and technology adoption at moderate levels. Farmers show limitations in access to information, loans or venture capital, and training in the use of tractors. The adoption of innovations by farmers deals with obstacles in terms of tractor operations, tractor prices, and the weak role of farmer groups. Entrepreneurship and technology adoption have a significant role in increasing the performance of lowland rice farming, where technology plays a role as an intervening variable. This research has important implications, namely the provision of extension workers and the empowerment of farmer groups to facilitate technology adoption and increase entrepreneurial entrepreneurship in farm management.JEL Classification: L26, O35, Q12

Land Use Rights

Land problems almost occur throughout Indonesia, without exception in Medan, North Sumatra Province. In Medan there is PTPN II land which, due to community needs, the government chose not to extend the HGU (Hak Guna Usaha) for the benefit of the community. The government considers that the people need this land more in order to meet the needs of life and the welfare of the entire community. The method used in this paper is juridical normative by adopting a legal synchronization approach, both vertically and horizontally, on land tenure conflicts after the expiration of the Legal Entity for Plantation Companies in Indonesia. Data obtained through literature search. The results show that the provisions regarding land tenure have been regulated in Law number 5 of 1960 concerning Basic Agrarian Principles or often referred to as UUPA. In article 16 paragraph 1 of Law Number 5 of 1960 UUPA, it is stated that land rights include ownership rights, land use rights, building use rights, usage rights, lease rights, land opening rights, rights to collect forest products, other rights that are not included in the rights mentioned above which will be stipulated by law as well as rights which are temporary as mentioned in Article 53 of Law Number 5 concerning UUPA. The existence of land rights that have been regulated in law often creates confusion and overlaps in the control of the land object. There is still a lack of and low understanding of the law by the majority of the community, are often used by irresponsible individuals with the intention of obtaining benefits in the form of land rights through control of the land. Then the role of the government has not run optimally in protecting the rights of land controlled by the community. The government has not been able to collect data and make complete registrations of land tenure in Indonesia. This is the cause of the frequent occurrence of land tenure conflicts so that the participation of all levels of society as well as the government is urgently needed..
