The research aimed to predict farmer’s productivity level and to identify factors affecting productivity level in seaweeds farming in Muna District Southeast Sulawesi. To achieve that objectives, frontier cost function using OLS and MLE estimation method with Cobb-Douglas functional assupmtion was used. Eighty six respondents were selected by proportional random method. The results of cost function based on OLS and estimation based on MLE showed that variables of seed prices, transportation prices, labor price and amount of production had jointly significant affect. Research showed farmers achieved productivity levels between 80 to 99 percent with an average of 96 percent. Productivity level distribution was influenced significantly by seaweed sales price and dummy of marketing channels. Important policy implication was to increase amount of production to fulfill market demand can only be done by increasing scale because gap between average productivity of farmers with maximum productivity rate of allocation and best combination of inputs (best practiced farm) is fairly narrow. Increasing scale of seaweed farmers must been followed with reforming that involving the government to correct the marketing system of seaweed so gave better impact on the price at farm level that would increase farmers productivity.

This study aims to determine the structure of production costs, revenue, profits, and feasibility of farming of potato farmers using ex vitro and non ex vitro seeds in Batur District, Banjarnegara Regency. The location of the study was determined purposive and sampling of farmers using ex vitro seeds was carried out using a census method of 30 farmers while farmers who used non ex vitro seeds used a proportional random sampling method of 30 farmers. The analysis used is descriptive analysis and t-test. The results showed that potato farming in 1 hectare of land was seen from the cost, income, and profit of farmers who used ex vitro seeds needed the cost of production of Rp. 20719651 obtain an income of Rp. 86299981 and a profit of Rp. 83085090. Whereas farmers who use non ex vitro seeds need a production cost of Rp. 2728906 obtain an income of Rp. 76315583 and a profit of Rp. 72187874. Based on the feasibility analysis seen from the R/C, capital productivity, labor productivity and capital productivity, potato farming with ex vitro seeds has a higher feasibility value than potato farming with non ex vitro seeds.
