Abstract

       Optimization of rice productivity in paddy fields is one of the opportunities to increase national rice production. The not optimal productivity of rice in paddy fields, among others, is caused by various things, especially ethanol rice farming, which faces technical, social, and economic obstacles to develop a more profitable rice commodity. Fertilization management practices greatly affect productivity, if productivity is increased, resulting in higher income and enabling farmers to save and accumulate capital. The income earned by a farmer is the reward that the farming family receives from the use of production factors, labor, and capital invested in the business sector.
