Analisis Manfaat Ekonomi Dan Kontribusi Usahatani Padi Hibrida Dan Inbrida Terhadap Ekonomi Rumah Tangga

Abstract
Rice demand has increased along with the growth of human population. Various efforts and technological innovations have been developed to improve the productivity of rice. One of the efforts is by utilizing superior hybrid variety of rice seeds. Hybrid rice will grow well if cultivated in appropriate biophysical areas. Malang is the biggest regency which cultivates hybrid rice about 34 108 hectare. A decent biophysical district which has developed hybrid rice in Malang is Pagelaran, notably at Clumprit village. The objective of this research was to analyze cost structure, economic benefits and the magnitude contributions of hybrid and inbred rice farming on household economics. Method used in this research was cost structures analysis, comprising two cost types which were cash and non-cash costs. Economic benefit analysis was used to understand the benefits of increased income, labor absorption and farm input savings. Income contribution analysis of household farmers emanated from rice farming, non-rice farming, livestock enterprises and other farming. The result of the research revealed that each growing season the average of total cost of hybrid rice farming per hectare was bigger than that of inbred rice farming. Cost component that generated higher costs of hybrid rice was the cost of fertilizers, biocides and labors. Total revenue, earning, and R / C ratio of hybrid rice farming were higher than that of inbred rice farming. Income increase earned by farmers of Clumpit village reached IDR 16 million per year whereas labor absorption was about 213 people in a growing season. Benefit value of labor absorption reached IDR 218 million per growing season or IDR 436 million per year. The utilization of hybrid rice could save production cost of IDR 88 million per year if all rice fields in Clumprit village were cultivated with hybrid rice. From various income received by farmers, it could be obtained a farming contribution of hybrid rice on household income as much as 48.18%.
