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

Irrigation Infrastructure

The rehabilitation of irrigation canal on the rural area is very important to rice farmers because the use of water is becoming more eficient and rice production and farmer’s income is increasing. Increasing the rice productivity would be considered as an indication of farmer’s participation on the adoption of technology. The present study was aimed to evaluate the technology adoption on rice farming in relation with the irrigation canal rehabilitation. The study was carried out in Majalengka district of West Java, during 2012 using survey method. The data were collected through the interview techniques to 44 farmer respondents using structured questionnaires. The data were cross tabulated and to measure the advantage of adopting the technology, Gross R/C ratio was calculated along with the break even point/BEP. Result of the analyses showed that after rehabilitation of the rural irrigation infrastructure the water supply was becoming more available and farmers were motivated to adopt the rice farming technology and the management of rice cultivation. The degree of technology adoption was considered as optimum and economically was feasible, as indicated by the value of R/C between 1.98 and 2.15, with the profitability of 49.6 percent to 53.5 percent. The partial budgetting analysis showed the B/C marginal of 2.59 and growing Ciherang rice variety is considered to be profitable.

Relationship Analysis

Rice commodity in Aikmel sub-district is one of the main commodities with an area of ​​9,392 Ha of lowland rice farming and geographically. Non-agricultural activities in rural areas began to develop in response to insufficient income from the agricultural sector. Many rural residents engage in non-agricultural activities when the agricultural sector is free. This is what causes a large number of residents to work from the non-agricultural sector, related to employment and income opportunities. Seeing this condition, it is felt that research needs to be done. This study aims to look at the income of paddy rice farming, non-farming and the relationship between lowland rice farming income and non-farming income on various land areas. The method in this study, namely descriptive, data collection by survey technique, determining the number of samples were 30 people was carried out by quota sampling and taking farmers in each village was carried out by proportional random sampling and determination of villages as samples was carried out by purposive sampling. The Results of the study explain: 1) the average total income of lowland rice farming farmers is Rp. 1.207.412/LLG or equivalent to Rp. 5.219.359/Ha. 2) In this study, farmers receive an average non-farming income of rice farmers of Rp. 8,000,000.- planting season 3). Relationship analysis relationship obtained correlation coefficient value of 0,3786 Because it has a positive result with a correlation coefficient value of 0,3786, the larger the land area, the greater the contribution of agricultural sector income to total non-agricultural income.

Traditional Economy

Traditional lifestyles of lowland rice farmers of the southern provinces of Lao People’s Democratic Republic are rapidly changing, due to two important trends. Firstly, there is a push towards modernization and commercialization of farming. Secondly, though farmers still focus on rice farming as a key activity, there is an increasing move towards diversification of livelihoods. The changes have seen the uptake of non-rice crops, livestock husbandry and forest and river utilization; as well as non-farming activities. This has influenced gender relations, impacting household agricultural production decisions and amplified transitional trends. To explore the processes, we analyzed data from a study of innovation adoption amongst rice farmers in southern Lao PDR. The study revealed nuances of gender-based differences in the priorities and attitudes towards farming and off-farm activities, as well as differences in behaviour related to the adoption of new practices. Women were more focused on non-farming practices and considered engaging in the modern, non-traditional, economy more so than men. Women also reported experiencing greater challenges when engaging and trading in the agricultural marketplace. The study supports the importance of taking a gendered approach to understanding the inherent complexities within agrarian change.

This research aims to determine the performance of new varieties of farm (VUB), lowland rice through an integrated approach to crop management (ICM) in the village of Gle Aneuk Indrapuri, Aceh Besar District. Field assessment is from cooperative farmers who have lowland rice varieties with treatment, such as Cimelati, Bondoyudo, Ciherang, Kalimas, VUTB Fatmawati and IR-64. In each of these rice varieties applied packages introduced PTT technology. The result indicates that reviewed the six varieties suitable for cultivated and developed. Judging from the performance of agronomic VUTB Fatmawati better compared with 5 other varieties. VUTB Fatmawati have the greatest production (7.75 tonnes / ha) with a profit-making Rp.6.074.750, -. Fatmawati lowland rice farming system with ICM pattern is more feasible to be developed because the RC has the largest ratio (2.09) compared with the varieties Cimelati (2,06), Kalimas (2,04), Bondoyudo (2,02), Ciherang (1,51) and varieties of IR-164 (1,39).Key words: farming, rice, varieties, integrated crop management

The objectives of the research were to analyze the participation of farmers in the Upsus Program, to analyze the factors that affect rice production, and to analyze the income level of lowland rice farming in Gadingrejo Sub District, Pringsewu District. The research was conducted in March-April 2019. The analysis of farmerparticipation in the Upsus Pajale program using scoring technique which were processed into interval data with Methode of Succesive Interval. Factors that affecting rice production were analyzed using the Cobb Doughlass production function, and analysis of farm income using a comparison between total revenues and total costs, called Revenue Cost Ratio (R/C). The results of this study were farmers' participation in the Upsus Pajale program was in the middle class, the factors that affect the rice production of lowland rice farming, namely land area, amount of phonska fertilizer, pesticide and farmer participation. Income from cash costs obtained by farmers amounted to Rp18,116,478.41 with R/C of 6,23/0,73 ha/planting season and income to total costs amounted to Rp16,184,879.44 with an R/C of 4,00/0,73 ha/planting season.Keywords: factors, income, production, rice paddy
