ANALISIS EFISIENSI TEKNIS DAN PENDAPATAN USAHATANI PADI PROGRAM BENIH BERSERTIFIKAT: PENDEKATAN STOCHASTIC PRODUCTION FRONTIER
ABSTRACTS: Indonesian Ministry
of Agriculture launched the certified rice seed program in order to increase rice
production and productivity where the pilot project was implemented in
Karawang. The objectives of this research are to analyze the technical
efficiency, structure of cost and income, and to evaluate the implementation of
new innovation technology for certified rice seed program. Stochastic frontier
production function, with MLE, showed
that the technical efficiency has decreased after the implementation of
program. The result of technical inefficiency effect before the implementation
of program showed that the significant variables were dummy organic and legowo,
whereas after the implementation of program were the experience, education, and
ureaTSP ratio. This condition showed that the increasing profit was caused by
the change of price, not by the increase of productivity. The implementation of
farming technology was not successful where only 9.68 percent of respondents
used organic fertilizer, 6.45 percent planted young seedlings, 12.90 percent
practiced legowo, and 45.16 percent applied fertilizers efficiently.
Keywords: certified rice seed program, technical efficiency,
