| Summary: | Rice (Oryza sativa) is the main commodity that plays an important role in
achieving food security both regionally and nationally. In the practice of rice
cultivation, various efforts have been made to increase land productivity, including
the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) approach and rice-fish cultivation. This
research was conducted to compare the level of productivity of rice fields that apply
a combination of SRI and rice-fish cultivation to the conventional cultivation,
through a case example in Kebon Belajar Tunas Nusa, Rancaekek District,
Bandung Regency, West Java. Productivity level comparison was carried out
through field studies and literature along with a comparison of the IPO (inputprocess-output) parameters involved in the two research sites in one cycle of rice
harvest. Based on the results of the research, the characteristics of the rice plants
produced by the SRI cultivation technique are relatively larger and denser in terms
of plant morphology, although the productivity (in tonnes/ha) is smaller than
conventional cultivation techniques. It was also found that the effectiveness (based
on yield) and efficiency (based on the calculation of HOK) were lower in the Kebon
Belajar compared to conventional rice fields. The rice harvest in Kebon Belajar is
worth 5.118 tonnes/ha while in conventional rice fields it is worth 6.373 tonnes/ha.
While the total amount of HOK/ha from Kebon Belajar is 2,892/ha and in
conventional rice fields it is worth 1,676/ha. The factors that affect the productivity
of rice plants include ecological factors such as air temperature, relative humidity,
soil quality, and water quality, as well as factors of cultivation techniques applied
which include land management, planting, irrigation, fertilization, maintenance,
and harvesting processes. |
