This study aims to determine and analyse the level of technical efficiency and the factors influencing technical efficiency of a potato farming in North Dempo, sub-district Pagar Alam City, South Sumatera Province using 51 farmers who are censused. Frontier production function, estimated using the MLE method, is used to determine the level of technical efficiency. Meanwhile, multiple regression estimated using OLS approach is used to determine factors influencing technical efficiency level. The research showed that, land area, seed, organic fertilizer, ZA fertilizer, Ponska fertilizer, and fungiside were significantly affect potato production. The research finds that the level of technical efficiency of potato farming was, on the average, 81.336 percent. The research also shows that the intensity of ex-tension and farmers' experience affect significantly and negatively technical inefficiency while formal education, age, and land ownership status do not.
This paper uses a gender conceptual framework of the determinants of food security. Using three indicators, the paper tries to demonstrate the considerable influence of the status of women relative to men to households" food security in two different economic base groups of households. This research was conducted in the District of Mukomuko in Bengkulu Province. As many as 219 respondents were divided into two groups of households, namely 110 fishery and 109 paddy farmers, and were selected using a simple random sampling. A multiple regression model was used to determine significant factors of household food security. Among the two different household groups and using a diet diversity as the household food security indicator, the fishery households group exposed relatively better food security status than that of paddy farmer households. The econometric analysis also showed that status of women relative to men was not significant to food security. Meanwhile, households" income and household economic base are important factors in determining households" food security.Key words : food security, women status, gender, fishery, paddy farmer ABSTRAK Kajian ini menggunakan kerangka konseptual gender dalam menentukan ketahanan pangan. Dengan menggunakan tiga indikator, artikel ini mencoba menunjukkan pengaruh dari status wanita relatif terhadap pria dalam rumah tangga pada ketahanan pangan pada dua rumah tangga yang berbeda basis ekonominya. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Kabupaten Muko-muko Provinsi Bengkulu. Dua ratus sembilan belas responden yang terdiri dari 110 rumah tangga nelayan dan 109 rumah tangga petani padi dipilih dengan menggunakan sampling acak sederhana. Model regresi berganda akan digunakan untuk menentukan faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap ketahanan pangan rumah tangga. Diantara dua kelompok rumah tangga dan dengan menggunakan ragam pangan sebagai indikator ketahanan pangan rumah tangga, rumah tangga nelayan menunjukkan derajat ketahanan pangan relatif lebih baik dibandingkan rumah tangga petani padi. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa status wanita tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap ketahanan pangan rumah tangga meskipun semua memiliki tanda yang sesuai. Sementara itu, pendapatan rumah tangga dan basis

Economic diversity has often been promoted as a means to achieve the economic goal of stability. Many empirical studies have also concluded that greater diversification in economic can reduce vulnerability and engendering financial development. The objective of this paper is to analyze the degree of economic diversification at village level. This research was conducted at twenty villages located around Kerinci Seblat National Park (TNKS) and determined purposively and surveyed. Twenty households from each selected village were selected using systematic random sampling method, so the total respondents were 400 households. Economic diversity at the village level was estimated using EDI suggested by Dewi, et al (2005).Research found that EDI value for each village studied varies from 0.20 to 1.00 with no village reaches 1.099, which is an ideal condition. The lowest EDI, i.e. 0.20, occurs in the village of Karang Dapo Atas and Karang Dapo Bawah, subdistrict of Bingin Kuning and the village of Ujung Tanjung II Subdistrict Embong Uram Karang. This value indicates that households in the village surveyed simply rely on one type of work, especially in the agricultural sector. This also means that not many households get into other employment sectors such as mining and or services/stalls/stores. By simply relying on agriculture as its main source of income, households tend to be vulnerable if there is a change in the agricultural sector, especially in sectors such as coffee and rubber plantations. Keywords: Economic Diversity, Kerinci Seblat National Park,
