Abstract

The potential of dry land in Central Sulawasi is an alternative for increasing rice production within the limited area for rice planting. However, the productivity of dry land is currently still low because of improper cultivation. One of the efforts to increase productivity is the introduction of technological innovation in the largo planting line system and the upland rice cultivation of new superior varieties. However, the new technology is not necessarily in accordance with the preferences of farmers that influence the level of technology adoption. The study aims to know economic feasibility and farmer response toward introduction of the New Superior Variety (VUB) and largo planting line system in Poso District Central Sulawesi Province. The approach of study is a qualitative research which purposively choose 20 cooperator farmer as respondent of the survey. Farmers' response to new technological innovations is measured by scoring method, while its ecomomic feasibility is determined by feasibility margins of existing and introduced technology. The results showed that farmers interested to VUB components and the largo system. Those technology are needed by farmers and easy to be implemented in field. The characteristics of VUB namely Inpago 11 and Situ Bagendit are generally favored by farmers. The results of Marginal Benefit Cost Ratio (MBCR) show that the introduction of technology used the largo system and dry land VUB is more economically profitable with MBCR 1.67

Abstract

One of the efforts to accelerate the achievement of corn self-sufficiency is the efficiency of farming through the use of agricultural machinery. The use of agricultural machinery at the farm level especially in planting and fertilizingis still scarcely done, while the availability of agricultural labor is decreasing recently. Innovations will be adopted by farmers based on its performance in the field which should be applicable and efficient. The study aims to determine the performance of seed planters as planting and fertilizing tool on dry land in Sigi Regency. The research method uses agro technical studies that measure theoretical work capacity (Kt), actual work capacity (Ka), as well as the efficiency of seed planter and tugal performance. The results shows that seed planter’s performance is higher than tugal. The seed planter has an average theoretical field capacity 1.92 ha/hour with an advanced speed of 6.42 km/hour and has an actual field capacity 0.625 ha/hour, whiletugal toolhas theoretical capacity 0.50 ha/hour with an average actual field capacity 0.167 ha/hour. However, the accuracy of the volume of seed and fertilizer fallfrom the seed planter have to be improved.
