Methods of data analysis that is used to find out the factors that affect the production of sugar cane and the level of technical efficiency of sugar cane farming is a stochastic production frontier. In order to find the factors that affect technical inefficiency of sugar cane efficiency, Tobit analysis is applied. The results show that the influential factors towards the production of sugar cane in the dry land i.e. number of seedlings and the number of labor, while sugar cane production in the irrigated land are the amount of labor, Urea fertilizer, Ponska fertilizer and herbicides. The average technical efficiency of sugar cane farming achieved in the dry land is 0.887 and the average technical efficiency of irrigated land is 0.928. Factors that influence technical inefficiency of sugar cane farming in the dry land are rejuvenation of sugar cane (keprasan), frequency of counseling, and seeds. While the factors for irrigated land are rejuvenation of sugar cane (keprasan) and frequency of counseling.","PeriodicalId":130060,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Socio-Economics Journal","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121296764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are farmers that are able to manage the risk; however, most of them fail to adapt the risk and uncertainty. If catastropihic losses happen then the farmers will suffer and come to the poverty. Therefore, government of Indonesia attempts to conduct agricultural insurance policy to prevent that case happening specially for small-scale farming. This study contributes in understanding what factors will endorse the acceptance of agricultural insurance for small-scale farming. The data analysis employed is binomial logistic regression in finding factors that negatively or positively affect the agricultural insurance program. The data was obtained through survey conducted in January to Mei 2017. The location of this study is Malang Regency, East-Java Province, Indonesia. The results found that there was 50 percent of the farmers accepting the agricultural insurance program and the other half of farmers unwilling to support the program. Regarding factors which affect negatively to the willingness to accept agricultural insurance are age, profit, and the number sources of income. Then, the factors which affects positively to the agricultural insurance are farming size, the experience of buying insurance, and also the intencity of farmers in attending farmers’ group meeting.","PeriodicalId":130060,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Socio-Economics Journal","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128951726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Soil fertility which shown by nutrient contents (Nitrogen, phosporous, potassium and organic matters) gives evidence of the existence of natural processes that occur within the soil that will be lost when land conversion happens. Similarly the external benefit of paddy fields as container of domestic waste compost will be lost too due to the land conversion. These functions and benefits are very important but are not appreciated by society. Giving economic values to paddy fields based on these two faculties will inform the society how valuable paddy fields are as natural resources. The economic valuation method used in this reserch is the Replacement Cost Method (RCM) with mathematical formula as follows NELSsFPUH = (U N x P n + U P x P p + U K x P k + U BO x P BO ) x A for economic value of paddy field as provider of nutrients contents (N, P, K) and organic matters; and NELSPK = (WK/KK) x PK x A for economic value of paddy field as compost container. The research was taken place in 6 sub-subdistricts in Lowokwaru Subdistrict with 205 hectares of paddy fields. The economic value of paddy field is about Rp 133,31 billions for economic value of paddy field as provider of nutrients contents (N, P, K) and organic matters; and Rp 7,76 billions for economic value of paddy field as compost container. For both faculties the average economic value Rp 688,18 million per hectare. Paddy fields in Lowokwaru Subdistricts are very feasible to be protected from conversion due to its satisfactory soil fertility and its potential to be increased, thus it is able to maintain land productivity.
