One area in Banyuwangi  Regency that has succeeded in  developing the SRI method of rice  farming is Watukebo Village in  Rogojampi District. The purpose of this  reserach was to determine the  competitiveness and the impact of  government policies on SRI rice farming  in Watukebo Village, Rogojampi  District, Banyuwangi Regency. The  analytical method used was the Policy  Analysis Matrix method, which is by  calculating tradable input costs, nontradable input costs, revenue, and  profits of the private price and the  social price of SRI rice farming.
