Description
Assessment on Shallot Farm Operations in Cirebon Regency. Shallot is the most important commodity that can be relied on as it contributes most to the farmer household income and agricultural development in Playangan Village. The assessment was conducted in Playangan village, Gebang Sub district, Cirebon Regency from May to June 2008 in the land owned by farmers. The assessment method used two comparable treatments namely the implementation of recommended farm operation system (cooperator farmers) and the not n suggested one (non cooperator farmers). Each treatment was replicated for 20 cooperator farmers in the same group. The land area covered 10 hectares. The assessment was carried out by performing preliminary survey covering the characterization of and the implementation of the fertilizing technology package recommendation, i.e. the use of 200kg/ha Urea, 200 kg/ha SP-36, 200 kg/ha ZA and 100 kg/ha KCl and the control of shallot pest using sex pheromone. The data analysis was performed on the shallot agronomy, the intensity of shallot pest (Spodoptera exigua) attacks and the farm operation income using t-test, B/C and descriptive statistics. The results show that the implementation of recommended technology used by cooperator farmers reached 20 t/ha with B/C 2.08, while that of non cooperator farmers was 18 t/ha with B/C 1.50.Key words : Shallot, farming, technology adoptionABSTRAKBawang merah merupakan komoditas terpenting yang dapat diandalkan, karena sebagai kontribusi terbesar dalam pendapatan rumah tangga petani maupun pembangunan pertanian di Desa Playangan.

Analisis data dilakukan terhadap keragaan agronomis bawang merah, intensitas serangan hama ulat bawang (Spodoptera exigua) dan pendapatan usahatani dengan menggunakan uji t, B/C dan statistik deskriptif. Hasil pengkajian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan teknologi anjuran yang digunakan petani koperator mencapai 20 t/ha dengan B/C 2,08 dan petani non koperator 18 t/ha dengan B/C 1,50.Kata kunci : Bawang merah, usahatani, adopsi teknologi
