Ministry of Agriculture launched Chili and shallot as one of the strategic commodities. Chili and shallot are planted in various cropping patterns. The aim was to identify various cropping patterns of chili and shallot in eight production centers, namely Cirebon, Bandung, Demak, Temanggung, Bangli, Solok, East Lombok, and Enrekang. The study was a descriptive observation, conducted from April to August 2018, Data collection was carried out through interviewing farmers and survey. The results showed that the cropping patterns applied to eight production centers can be grouped into 1) monoculture: chilli or shallot, 2) polyculture such as intercropping, multiple cropping, relay cropping, and sequential planting between chilli or shallot with other plants.
<p>Penggunaan biji true shallot seed (TSS) telah diperkenalkan sebagai salah satu alternatif penyediaan benih bawang merah yang sehat dan berkualitas tinggi yang tersedia dalam jumlah yang cukup bagi petani sepanjang tahun. Penggunaan TSS diharapkan dapat mengatasi persoalan kuantitas dan kualitas bawang merah konsumsi serta perbenihan bawang merah di Indonesia. Pembentukan kelembagaan yang tepat perlu dibangun sejalan dengan pengembangan TSS. Pembentukan kelembagaan yang baik dan kuat dapat menghasilkan teknologi inovatif yang tepat dan menjamin ketersediaan benih TSS dalam jangka panjang. Tujuan penelitian yaitu mengetahui model pilihan kelembagaan stakeholder (pemangku kepentingan) untuk mendukung pengembangan sistem perbenihan TSS bawang merah di Jawa Timur. Survei dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret hingga Agustus 2016 di Jawa Timur melalui interview kepada 35 responden. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan konsep Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) dengan program statistik Super Decisions. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa opsi kelembagaan yang dipilih oleh responden untuk pengembangan perbenihan bawang merah TSS di Jawa Timur adalah opsi 1. Di opsi 1, Balitsa dan BPTP berperan memproduksi TSS kelas jenis Benih Penjenis (BS) dari umbi varietas bawang merah unggul dan memberikan delegasi legalitas/lisensi kepada BBI/BBU/BBH/SWASTA untuk memproduksi/memperbanyak Benih Umbi kelas benih BS. Berikutnya, Perguruan Tinggi (PT)/BPTP/SWASTA menghasilkan TSS dan umbi benih untuk kelas Benih Dasar (BD). Selanjutnya penangkar terpilih memproduksi TSS dan umbi benih kelas Benih Pokok (BP) dan Benih Sebar (BR). Benih Sebar ditanam oleh petani untuk memproduksi umbi bawang merah konsumsi. Produksi TSS-BP, benih umbi BP, TSS-BR, dan benih umbi BR diawasi dan didampingi oleh BPTP.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p>Analisis hirarkhi proses (AHP); Benih botani bawang merah; Model kelembagaan; Perbenihan bawang merah</p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The use of true shallot seed (TSS) has been promoted as an alternative method to obtain healthy and high quality shallot seed that supposed to be adequately available for farmers along the year. The use of TSS is expected to be able of solving quantity and quality problems of shallot table consumption and shallot seed in Indonesia. A functioning institutional setting should be established in line with the development of TSS. The establisment of good and strong institutional could generate innovative appropriate technologies and ensure the availability of TSS in a long term. The objective of this study was to investigate the stakeholders’ choice of some institutional models to support the development of TSS shallot seed system in East Java. A survey was conducted from March to August 2016 to collect data by interviewing 35 respondents. Data were analysed by employing the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) concept and using Super Decisions statistical program. Results indicates that an institutional setting selected by respondents to support the development of TSS shallot seed system in East Java is described in the first option. The first option suggests that Indonesian Vegetables Research Institute (IVEGRI) and Assessment Institute for Agricultural Technology (AIAT) have the role of producing TSS for Breeder Seed class (BS) from high quality shallot bulbs and providing legality delegation or license to BBI/BBU/BBH (Indonesian government seed institutions)/Private in producing/multiplying seed bulbs of BS class. Afterward, the University/AIAT/Private will produce TSS and seed bulbs for Foundation Seed class (FS). Furthermore, selected shallot seed growers will produce TSS and seed bulbs for Stock Seed class (SS) and Extension Seed class (ES). The ES will be used by farmers to produce shallot bulbs for table consumption. Production of FS-TSS, FS-seed bulbs, ES-TSS, and ES-seed bulbs will be monitored and supervised by AIAT.</p>
Soil and Agriculture Museum as a center for information and education in agriculture which is managed by the Center for Library and Agricultural Technology Dissemination. In order to attract visitors, the museum needs to be managed creatively and attractively. This paper aims to provide information to users about the services and activities provided by the Museum of Soil and Agriculture (MTP). Services and activities carried out by libraries and museums to attract users during the COVID-19 pandemic are Virtual Tour MTP, Virtual Tour International Museum Day series, MTP Thematic Exhibition, Sundanese Cultural Creation Dance Competition, Illustration Drawing Competition. In addition to these activities, PUSTAKA also produced five videos which were posted on the Soil and Agriculture Museum Web. The results of activities and promotions carried out by PUSTAKA are then narrated descriptively. The results of the study show that after the promotion of services and activities in 2020 was held, the total visitors to the Soil and Agriculture Museum reached 13,844 people, both directly and via virtually, with students as the most visitors students. It can be concluded that the promotion and service activities carried out can increase the number of visits to the museum.
<p>Keputusan untuk mengadopsi varietas atau teknologi baru, terutama bagi petani skala kecil, sangat dipengaruhi oleh kepemilikan sumber daya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengevaluasi pengaruh kepemilikan aset produksi petani terhadap keputusan petani menggunakan Varietas Unggul Baru (VUB) pepaya Merah Delima. Survei dilaksanakan di beberapa sentra produksi pepaya (Sumatra Barat, Riau, Jawa Timur, Jawa Tengah, dan Jawa Barat) melibatkan 46 responden terpilih yang terdiri atas 17 petani pengguna pepaya Merah Delima dan 29 petani penanam pepaya varietas lainnya. Faktor-faktor determinan penggunaan varietas dianalisis dengan menggunakan model regresi Logit dan Tobit. Ketersediaan sarana dan prasarana produksi berpengaruh signifikan terhadap keputusan petani menggunakan VUB pepaya Merah Delima. Pengaruh sarana dan prasarana produksi terhadap probabilitas peningkatan penggunaan varietas lebih dominan dibanding pengaruh faktor-faktor lainnya. Oleh karena itu, program pengembangan VUB pepaya Merah Delima lebih lanjut disarankan perlu didukung dengan bantuan penyediaan alat semprot (sprayer) bertenaga mesin atau ditargetkan di lokasi-lokasi yang tidak terlalu bermasalah dengan tata kelola air.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong></p><p>Adopsi; Pepaya Merah Delima; Varietas Unggul Baru</p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The decision to adopt a new variety or technology, especially for small-scale farmers, is heavily influenced by resource ownership. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of farmer production asset ownership on farmers’ decisions to use Merah Delima papaya high yielding variety (HYV). The survey was conducted in several papaya production centers (West Sumatra, Riau, East Java, Central Java, and West Java) involving 46 selected respondents consisting of 17 farmers using Merah Delima papaya and 29 farmers growing other papaya cultivars. The determinants of farmer decision were analyzed using the Logit and Tobit regression models. The results show that the availability of production facilities and infrastructure has significant effects on farmers’ decisions to use Merah Delima papaya HYV. The influence of production facilities and infrastructure on the probability of increasing the usage of Merah Delima papaya is more dominant than the influence of other factors. Therefore, it is recommended that further Merah Delima papaya HYV development program needs to be supported by the assistance of providing farmers with machine-powered sprayers or prioritized at locations that have few water/irrigation management problems.</p>
Analysis of Household Customer Satisfaction Level on Chilli Planting Program. Chili is one of the important food commodities which are consumed by almost all of Indonesian people. In some situations, the availability of chili is limited, so that its price is increasing significantly. This situation has encouraged the Government of Indonesia (GoI) to launch the Chili Planting Program. The purpose of this study was to analyze the level of household satisfaction to Chili Planting Program. The study was done in Bogor and Jakarta in February until December 2017. The method used was an interview based on quesionaire distributed to 95 women involved in PKK (family welfare development program). Data collected was analysed using Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), furthermore to know some attributes which affected respondents satisfaction, the data was analyzed using Importance Performance Analysis (IPA). The results were said that CSI of household in Bogor was 53.18% and in Jakarta was 49.89%, which were in the range of 40.01%-60.01%. That is meant the level of household satisfaction on two locations of the study was not satisfied yet. Therefore it is necessary to improve the performance of attributes i.e. explaining how to plant chili, assisting and providing planting media, fertilizers and pesticides with the aim that the chili cultivation program will successful, or achieving a satisfaction level of 80.01%-100%.
