Abstract
Impact of Dissemination of Rice Seed Development Model on Variety Distribution in Blora District. Improved rice variety is one of the components of technology to adopt in the rice production system in Indonesia. Nevertheless, it still needs time for a new rice variety to be adopted and distributed by the farmers. Through Poor Farmer Project, effort to disseminate 10 new improved rice varieties have been conducted at Kedungtuban Subdistrict of Tuban District in 2007. Seeds of these 10 rice varieties, Le. Ciherang. Cibogo, Cigeulis, Situ Bagendit, Bondoyudo, Mekongga, Situ Patenggang. Batutegi, Limboto, and Singkil were planted in the demonstration area. During planting period the researcher, in collaboration with the farmers observed the performance of the rice plants during the vegetative and generative stages, grain quality, and the cooked rice quality through organoleptic test. These observations revealed that Cibogo was the most preferred variety and its spread was faster than other varieties. One year after varieties demonstration in Kedungtuban, Cibogo variety has been planted by farmers in Blora District covering the area of up to 1,515 ha. Cibogo adoption has spread over Kedungtuban, Cepu, Jepon, Blora, Ngawen, and Kunduran Sub-districts in area of 350 ha, 200 ha, 115 ha, 150 ha. 550 ha, and 150 ha, respectively; or equivalent to 0.49%, 7.0%, 3.4%, 7.6%, 8.6%, and 1.5% from total area of rice field available in Blora, respectively. Although the current spread of Cibogo is still limited as compared to that of Ciherang variety, but based on its vegetative growth, yield performance, and farmers' preferences, the probability of Cibogo to spread over a larger area than Ciherang is high in the near future.

Varietas unggul baru (VUB), sebagai salah satu komponen teknologi, merupakan teknologi yang paling mudah diterapkan. Namun demikian, perlu waktu agar VUB tersebut dapat diadopsi petani. Pada tahun 2007, melalui Proyek Peningkatan Pendapatan Petani Melalui Inovasi (P4MI) telah dilakukan diseminasi VUB di Kecamatan Kedungtuban, Blora dengan metode demonstrasi lapangan untuk lahan sawah seluas 5 ha. Sejumlah 10 VUB yang dikenalkan kepada petani adalah Ciherang. Cibogo, Cigeulis, Situ Bagendit, Bondoyudo, Mekongga, Situ Patenggang, Batutegi, Limboto, dan Singkil Selama periode pertanaman, petani kooperator melakukan penilaian terhadap semua VUB, yang dimulai sejak fase vegetatif sampai panen. Penilaian dilanjutkan sampai dengan uji organoleptik. Hasil penilaian menunjukkan bahwa Cibogo merupakan varietas padi yang paling disukai petani di Kecamatan Kedungtuban, Blora. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari perkembangan varietas Cibogo yang cukup baik di sana. Selama satu tahun (2008), Cibogo telah menyebar ke beberapa kecamatan di wilayah Kabupaten Blora, yaitu Kedungtuban, Cepu, Jepon, Blora, Ngawen, dan Kunduran berturut-turut mencakup lahan seluas 350 ha, 200 ha, 115 ha, 150 ha, 550 ha, dan 150 ha. atau berturut-turut sebesar 0,49%, 7,0%,3,4%, 7,6%, 8,6%, dan 1,5% dari total luas sawah yang tersedia di masing-masing kecamatan. Meskipun penyebaran varietas Cibogo saat ini masih terbatas jika dibandingkan dengan penyebaran varietas Ciherang, tetapi di waktu mendatang. Cibogo mempunyai peluang yang besar untuk menyebar meliputi areal tanam yang lebih luas dibanding areal tanam Ciherang.
