FARMER RISK ANALYSIS ON SUPERIOR RICE FARMING IN TIDAL SWAMP LAND OF BARITO KUALA DISTRICT, SOUTH KALIMANTAN, INDONESIA

Abstract

This study aims to analyze what factors affect the risk of superior rice production in tidal swamp land, Barito Kuala District. This research will be conducted in Barito Kuala District, South Kalimantan Province. This research will start from March-June 2022. The analytical tool used is the Just Pope function model. The results of the analysis show that the determinant of the risk of superior rice production in tidal swamp land is labor input. Labor input is risk decreasing, meaning that the use of labor input is able to reduce the risk or variation in the results achieved. If farmers add more labor, it means that the handling of farming will be more intensive starting from the process of seeding, fertilizing, controlling pests and diseases until the harvest period.
