Agronomical performance and economic feasibility of new superior rice variety planted on the irrigated field in Jayapura, Papua

Abstract

The study aims to evaluate the agronomical performance of new superior varieties of rice in irrigated fields cultivated through the Integrated Crop Management approach and the feasibility of the farming system. The research was carried out in Koya Barat, a region in District Muara Tami, Jayapura City, Papua Province in April-October 2019. The research used a single factor randomised block design with four new superior rice varieties as treatment afived 5 replications. The varieties were Inpari 36, Inpari 37, Inpari 43, and Ciherang. The data were analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and followed by DMRT to determine the differences between treatments. The R/C ratio, marginal B/C analysis and the break-even point (BEP) were analysed to determine the economic feasibility. The results showed that the performance of each variety varied following their genetic traits. The highest rice production was obtained from Inpari 37 variety (6.86 t/ha), while Ciherang produced the lowest yield (4.34 t/ha). Inpari 37 and Inpari 43 provided higher profit compared to Ciherang and Inpari 36 with R/C values of 3.43 and 3.42, respectively. The highest market acceptance of Inpari 37 was valued at IDR 29,498,000 followed by Inpari 43 at Rp 29,412,000, then Ciherang at IDR 18,662,000 and lastly, the Inpari 36 at IDR 25,542,000. Economically, rice farming is feasible to be developed because it has an R/C ratio of> 1. The irrigated rice farming in Jayapura City is profitable with a rate of around 2.42 % of the total cost spent.

Factors affecting the income of paddy field farm management in Kerinci Regency, Jambi Province

“…The R/C ratio of 3,9 indicates that acceptance is higher than paddy field farming management. The R/C Ratio value obtained in this study area is greater than the R/C Ratio research value of Mashudi et al [18] (2,97), Tiro et al [19] (1,7), Beding et al [20] (3,42), Slameto et al [21] (3,48). Another analysis is labor productivity, which is Rp.150.000, substantially more significant than the present pay in the study area (Rp.100.000).…”

“…Hasil-hasil kajian tersebut antara lain dengan introduksi varietas unggul baru Inpari 7 di Kabupaten Jayapura menghasilkan produktivitas 6.925 t/ha GKG (Malik, 2013). Di lokasi yang sama, pengkajian yang dilakukan oleh (Beding & Tiro, 2019) Inpari 37 dan Inpari 43 pada tanah sawah irigasi di Kota Jayapura menunjukkan produktivitas masing-masing 5.94 t/ha, 6.86 t/ha dan 6.84 t/ha (Beding et al, 2021).…”

Technological performances and economic feasibility in rice irrigated farming

“…Rice commodity involves a lot of labor and affects regional economic growth. Self-sufficiency needs to be maintained, and this policy's impact is that Indonesia has not imported rice since 2019 [1,2]. The rice centre in Jawa island is the East Java province, has a 1,754,813 ha harvested area with 5,668 kg/ha productivity, and contributes 16.69% of the total harvested area in Indonesia.…”
