Today eco-friendly rice farming system becomes interesting agribusiness among farmers, traders and regulators. The use of organic fertilizers as one of eco-friendly components in rice farming system is still low. In some rice production center the farmers of organic rice farming system looks higher than non-organic farmers. The question is: is there any difference among farmers whom use organic, semi-organic and inorganic fertilizers statistically? This research aims to know the difference of rice farmer income (organic and inorganic fertilizer) in East Ogan Komering Ulu (East-OKU), South Sumatra. The method used in this research is comparative analysis (independent t-test). The sample farmers are classified into the three clusters. The research shows that the contribution fertilizer cost from semi-organic farming is higher than full organic and inorganic farming. On the other side, t-test result shows that there is no different income among three kinds of using fertilizer.Key words: income, farming, full organic, semi organic, inorganic fertilizer.

Rice is the most important staple cereals in human nutrition and consumed by 75% of the global population. Rice plant needs supply of essential nutrients for its optimal growth. Rice production has been increased tremendously in India after green revolution combined with insensitive irrigation and use of inorganic fertilizers and pesticides. However, the effect of using inorganic fertilizers has resulted in contamination of ground water and decreased the productivity of soil, which in turn affects the rice production in long term. Use of organic manure may help to regain the soil health but they are insufficient to provide the essential nutrients to achieve optimal growth. So, use of organic manures combine with inorganic fertilizers are followed to obtain optimum yields. This study aimed to test the effect of the different organic fertilizer and combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers on the qualitative and quantitative parameters of two cultivars of rice as DRR Dhan 39 and RP.BIO.226. The experiment was conducted on the farm located at Fasalwadi village, Sangareddy district, Telangana during kharif season in randomized complete block design with three replications. The treatment included two controls and 10 combinations of four organic fertilizers as farmyard manure, vermicompost, Panchagavya, Jeevamrutha and inorganic fertilizers as combination of 60:75:75 levels of N, P and K. Grain and straw samples were collected and physical parameters were measured at harvest stage. The results indicated that the variety DRR Dhan 39 gave the statistically significant (P<0.0001) higher grain yield of 8713 kg/ha and straw yield of 9483kg/ha with 50% organic fertilizers of Vermicompost, Jeevamrutha 5% and Panchagavya 3% and 50% inorganic fertilizer of NPK. On the other hand, the variety of RP.BIO.226 gave the highest grain yield of 6390 kg/ha with Vermicompost, Jeevamrutha 5% and Panchagvya 3% (8 t/ha, foliar spray and 500 litres/ha) and highest straw yield of 7430 kg/ha with T10 treatment (50% organic fertilizers of Vermicompost, Jeevamrutha 5% and Panchagavya 3% and 50% inorganic fertilizer of NPK). Both varieties of rice poorly responded to inorganic fertilizers with lower grain and straw yield. Statistically significant differences were observed in both varieties of grain crude protein (CP%), straw acid detergent fiber (ADF%), crude fiber (CF%) and acid detergent lignin (ADL%) with different fertilizers

Indonesia is rated the highest rice consumer and the third-largest producer in the world, consequently, farming is one of the most strategic production systems in the country. Therefore, this study aims to assess the sustainability of rice farming at the provincial level in Indonesia. Furthermore, 32 sustainability indicators, which are categorized into five dimensions, namely economic, ecological, social, technological, and institutional were used. The rapid appraisal approach (Rapsusagri), consisting of multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) analysis was adopted to assess the sustainability of rice farming. Monte Carlo simulation was used to define the validity and sensitivity analysis to assess the dominant attributes which affect sustainability. The result showed that the economic and social dimensions are at a better level, meanwhile the ecological, technological, and institutional still have various weaknesses and needs improvement. Furthermore, irrigated paddy areas, agricultural infrastructure, rice productivity, use of chemical and organic fertilizers, cropping index, land suitability, village accessibility, officers, and agricultural extension institution were pointed out as the leveraging indicators for sustaining the rice farming system. Also, provinces in Java Island were found to have higher sustainability levels than others. However, it is predicted that this condition will last for a short period due to rapid land conversion, therefore Indonesia needs to consider the development of rice production areas outside Java islands.

[CABBAGE (Brassica olacea var. capitata) GROWTH AND YIELD AFFECTED BY COMBINATION OF ORGANIC AND INORGANIC FERTILIZER APPLICATIONS]. The use of organic fertilizer increasingly sought by farmers due to the increase in demand for organic products by consumers and also awareness of the sustainability of the land. The use of organic fertilizers in the cultivation alone could improve the soil quality but needs to be balanced with inorganic fertilizers to meet the nutrient adequacy. This study aims to examine the effect of organic and inorganic fertilizers combination on the growth and cabbage yield, and also to determine the most efficient dosage combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers. This research was conducted at the IPB Pasir Sarongge Experimental Station, Cianjur, West Java from November 2020 to February 2021. The study was compiled using RCBD with 4 replications and 7 treatments. The results showed the combination of 0.75 doses of inorganic fertilizer (150 kg/ha of urea, 75 kg/ha SP36, and 75 kg/ha KCl) and 3 tons/ha of organic fertilizer could increase 14.87 to 15.44% plant height and the number of leaves at 12.82 -15.11% compared to the same dose of inorganic fertilizer treatment alone. The combination of 1 dose (200 kg/ha of urea, 100 kg/ha SP36, and 100 kg/ha KCl) inorganic fertilizer application and 2 tonnes/ha of organic fertilizer could increase 50,60% yield/plot and yield/ha cabbage than 1 dose of inorganic fertilizer treatment..

A field experiment was conducted at Jimma Agricultural Research Center, Agaro Agricultural Research Sub Center, southwestern Ethiopia for five consecutive cropping seasons from 2015/16 to 2019/20 to evaluate effect of organic (conventional compost) and inorganic NP fertilizers on agronomic growth and soil properties of coffee (Coffea arabica L.). The treatments consisted of 100% recommended decomposed coffee husk alone, 100% recommended NP rate alone, 100% of NP + 25% of compost (DCH), 75% of NP + 50% of compost (DCH), 50% of NP + 50% of compost (DCH), 50% of NP + 75% of compost (DCH), 25% of NP + 75% of compost (DCH), 25% of NP + 100% of compost (DCH) and Control (without input, farmers’ practice). The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. Higher yield of clean coffee yield was obtained from the application of 50% dose of nitrogen and phosphorous from inorganic fertilizer sources and 50% dose of decomposed coffee husk (2083.5kg ha-1) while the lowest clean coffee yield (1570.5kg ha-1) was obtained from no application of fertilizers. Application of organic fertilizers (compost) with inorganic fertilizers gave statistically similar yield components to NP fertilizer alone for five years. Significant differences (p>0.05) due to soil nutrient sources were observed in coffee height where inorganic fertilizer treatment resulted in tallest coffee plants (348.23 cm) and no application of nutrients having the shortest coffee trees (200.49 cm) after two year. Lower yield and yield components of Limu1 coffee were achieved from no application of organic and inorganic fertilizer sources. In conclusion, organic fertilizers (conventional compost) alone cannot provide a viable substitute for inorganic fertilizer without causing a significant yield. Therefore, integrated use of organic and inorganic fertilizers was recommended for coffee production at Jimma, southwestern Ethiopia and other similar agro ecology.

Abstract This study explores the causal association between organic and inorganic fertilizer application and vegetable productivity in Ghana. Primary data were obtained from 300 pepper, cabbage and lettuce producers. To correct for self-selection bias and endogeneity, Heckman selection and three-stage least-squares models were estimated. More producers used inorganic fertilizers for pepper, cabbage and lettuce production than those who used organic fertilizers. Vegetable producers applied higher quantities of organic fertilizers (2830 kg) per acre than inorganic fertilizers (880 kg). Organic cabbage and lettuce producers recorded higher productivity than inorganic producers, but inorganic pepper producers had higher productivity than organic producers. However, vegetable producers who applied either organic or inorganic fertilizers, or both, recorded higher productivity than those who did not apply fertilizer. Factors that enhance the application of organic and inorganic fertilizers and vegetable productivity are education, farm size and production for export, land ownership, farmer association membership and perception about fertilizer price. Organic and inorganic fertilizer application improves vegetable productivity, and productivity promotes fertilizer application. Private agencies and government should subsidize fertilizers, improve producers' access to agricultural information, and train producers on productivity-enhancing agronomic practices.

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
