Lokasi penelitian di Kabupaten Lampung Barat mewakili petani etnis Lampung, Lampung Selatan mewakili petani etnis Jawa, dan Lampung Tengah mewakili petani etnis Bali. Analisis data berupa analisis perbedaan varians dan analisis regresi linear berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persepsi atas karakteristik inovasi oleh petani etnis Lampung, Jawa, Bali berbeda nyata. Petani etnis Bali mempunyai persepsi inovasi paling tinggi sedangkan petani etnis Lampung paling rendah. Persepsi atas karakteristik inovasi keseluruhan etnis petani dipengaruhi secara nyata oleh sikap terhadap perubahan, keberanian untuk berisiko, kompetensi model, status model, dan peran kelompok tani.
