Analisis Kelayakan Usahatani Padi Sawah Apung pada Lahan Sawah Rawan Banjir di Kabupaten Banyumas

Abstract

The technique of floating rice cultivation is an alternative to utilize flood-prone wetland in Banyumas Regency. This study aims to describe the use of flood-prone rice fields and assess their potential, and analyze the feasibility of floating rice farming in Banyumas Regency. This research uses descriptive analysis, cost and income analysis, investment feasibility analysis, and sensitivity analysis. The results showed that the respondent farmers in Banyumas Regency tried flood-prone rice fields with an average area of 0.323 hectares. The land is planted with rice in one year 3-5 times, but farmers only succeed in getting a crop as much as once a year. The results of the investment feasibility analysis are the R/C ratio of 0.5604, Net B/C ratio of 0.0903, the revenue BEP of Rp1,610,587.98, the price BEP of Rp7,709.07, the production BEP of 671.09 kilograms, NPV of -Rp16,331,041, and a payback period of 110 planting season periods. The results of the analysis show that floating rice farming is not feasible. Sensitivity analysis shows that floating rice farming is feasible to be carried out if there is a decrease in production costs and a combination of a decrease in production costs with an increase in productivity. The application of floating paddy rice cultivation provides significant benefits and has the potential to utilize labor from farming families.

The implementation of permaculture design as a solution to achieve the food security in sub-optimal areas of Pangandaran Regency

“…Penerapan sawah apung dilakukan sebagai upaya mitigasi terhadap terjadinya banjir rob atau banjir akibat adanya drainase yang buruk pada wilayah tersebut. Oktania et al (2021) menyatakan bahwa penggunaan padi apung dapat menguntungkan dan berpotensi untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman akibat tercekam abiotik. Selain itu, penanaman padi gogo dilakukan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman.…”

“…Berbagai macam komoditas yang dihasilkan pada sector ini merupakan komoditas ekspor dan menjadi salah satu tulang punggung perekonomian nasional. Di antara berbagai macam komoditas yang diketahui, padi merupakan komoditas pangan terbesar yang dapat ditemukan di Indonesia (Oktania et al, 2021). Oleh karena itu, peningkatan produksi padi menjadi salah satu target utama yang perlu dicapai dari tahun ke tahun.…”
