Abstract
One of the efforts made in increasing rice productivity is through the application of cultivation technology. Agricultural Research and Development Agency as a producer of technological innovation, in 2016 has launched an environmentally friendly rice cultivation technology package namely Jajar Legowo (Jarwo) Super Technology . The objectives of the study are: 1) to find out the production and productivity of lowland rice farming with the application of Jarwo Super technology package, 2) to determine farmers perceptions of Jarwo Super rice technology innovation, and 3) financially analyze rice farming by applying Jarwo Super technology package in Gorontalo . The activity of applying the agricultural innovation was carried out in the Kawa 1 Farmers Group in Hutabohu Village, West Limboto District, Gorontalo Regency, Gorontalo Province. The total area of Demfarm assesses the application of the Jarwo Super rice technology innovation, which is 15 hectares by involving 15 cooperative farmers. This applied review activity is carried out in March to July 2018. The method of implementing the applied review is carried out by comparing the introduction of technology from the Agency for Agricultural Research (as treatment) with existing technology commonly practiced by farmers. The superior varieties of lowland rice used were Inpari 30, Inpari 31, Inpari 40, Cigeulis, Mekongga, and IR 64. The results of the study revealed that rice productivity with the application of the jarwo super technology package from highest to lowest respectively was the jarwo super package Inpari 40 ( 8.19 tons / ha), jarwo super Inpari 30 (7.73 tons / ha), super full organic IR 64 jarwo (6.09 tons / ha), Jarwo super Cigeulis (6.05 tons / ha), Jarwo super Inpari 31 (4.41 tons / ha) . The average rice productivity with the application of the super jarwo package of 6.49 tons / ha, is higher than the productivity of rice with existing farmers technology (3.53 tons / ha), so that the application of the jarwo super rice technology package can increase rice productivity by 84 percent from existing technology the farmer. The average farmers perception of jarwo super rice technology innovation shows that jarwo super technology increases production, income, is easy to implement, and farmers are interested in implementing it again. The results of the financial analysis of farming shows that rice farming with the application of the jarwo super technology package increases the R / C ratio compared to the existing farmer farming.
