Abstract

Intercropping is an effective way to use increasingly limited agricultural land. An intercropping pattern is a planting pattern with more than one type of plant at a given time. The objectives of the study: (1) to find out the i ncome of corn monoculture farming and cassava corn intercropping farming, (2) to find out what factors affect farmers' decisions in choosing cassava corn intercropping patterns. The method used in the survey. There are 2 populations, namely (1) 447 farmers with a corn-cassava intercropping pattern and 66 samples were obtained by simple random sampling using the formula (Suliyanto, 2009), (2) 45 corn farmers and all were taken to be used as samples of 45 samples by the census method. Data analysis: (1) income analysis and R/C Ratio, (2) logistic regression analysis. (1) Monoculture farming income Rp. 9,059,342.38 (R/C ratio 2.19) and cassava corn intercropping pattern Rp. 33,687,057.07 (R/C ratio 3.68), and (2) Logistic regression results: the variables of land area and farmer income have a significant influence on farmers' decisions in choosing cassava corn intercropping patterns. The income of cassava corn intercropping farming is more profitable than monoculture farming so that the income variables and land area have a significant influence on farmers' decision to choose cassava corn intercropping pattern.
