Spatial Pattern of Rice Field Productivity based on Physical Characteristics of Landscape in Citarum Watershed, West Java

Abstract

This research to analyse the pattern of rice field productivity that is identified through landscape perspective. Identification of productivity pattern has been done partially based on each typology of land components into several segment of the Citarum watershed, West Java Province, Indonesia. Spatial autocorrelation through GIS tool is used as the method in this research. By using moran’s I (index) measurement, degree of dependency of these variables are generated to find the spatial pattern. The result of this study is separated the value of productivity based on segments of watershed, the values of the average of productivity are upstream (6,39 ton/Ha), middle stream (6,52 ton/Ha), and downstream (7,17 ton/Ha), sequentially. The highest productivity is in the downstream area (9,83 ton/Ha) and the lowest is in the upstream area (4,55 ton/Ha). In accordance with physiographic typology showed the rice field in the middle stream has more variation than the upstream or teh downstream area. The highest of average rice field productivity is on alluvial plain. Overall, the rice field productivity on the hills is higher rather that other types of landform the stuctural formation is more dominant, in addition. The spatial pattern shows the distribution of rice field productivity most likely to clustered based on the similarity of physiographic type. Statistically, it has p-value <0,01 and z-score >2,58 (239,26) correspond to Spatial Autocorrelation (Moron’s I). This positive value means a less than 1% likelihood that this clustered pattern could be result of random choice, which the rice field productivity value has similar pattern to others. Thus, it can be generated that the pattern of rice field productivity has a very close relation with the physical characteristics which associated of each typology of land components.

The Challenge of Rice Farming in Urbanized Region: The case of Sragen District, Central Java.

“…Java's soil is dominated by alluvial fertile. Java island is dominated by volcanic structure that results in fertile soil for agricultural activities [18]. Therefore, in certain rice cultivation area in Java, crop productivity is higher than national average.…”

Impact of impulse irrigation in different phases of the growing season on rice yield in the Krasnodar Territory

“…The efficiency of agricultural activities requires economic feasibility. Economic efficiency is determined by comparing the obtained effect (result) with the used resources or costs with the results from the sale of the obtained products [7,[11][12][13][14][15].…”

Strategi Pengendalian Konversi Lahan Sawah untuk Mempertahankan Swasembada Pangan di Kabupaten Toba

“…Produktivitas lahan sawah sebesar 5.25 ton ha -1 menjadi 6.00 ton ha -1 atau meningkat sebesar 0.79 ton ha-1 (15.04%) selama periode 2010-2020. Hal ini disebabkan karena adanya penerapan teknologi pertanian seperti perubahan pola tanam konvensional menjadi sistem jajar legowo, penggunaan bibit unggul, pemupukan berimbang, dan pengendalian hama dan penyakit tanaman serta didukung kondisi fisik lahan sawah Kabupaten Toba berada di wilayah relatif datar sehingga berpengaruh baik terhadap produktivitas (Purwono dan Aprianto, 2018). Namun, peningkatan produktivitas pada tahun 2020 belum mampu mengimbangi angka pada tahun 2010 karena laju konversi lahan sawah yang cukup besar sehingga berdampak pada ketersediaan beras, sedangkan kebutuhannya terus meningkat di Kabupaten Toba.…”
