Analisis Efisiensi Penggunaan Input Produksi pada Usahatani Bawang Merah di Desa Songan B, Kecamatan Kintamani,Kabupaten Bangli

Abstract

Efficiency Analysis of the Use of Production Input on Shallot Farming
in Songan B Village, Kintamani Sub-District, of Bangli Regency

Bali is a tourism area and a potential market for shallot business. One of the shallot
production centers in Bali is Songan B Village, Kintamani Sub-District, Bangli
Regency. Fluctuating shallot production is thought to be due to the inefficient use of
production inputs so that it is needed to analyze the efficiency of the use of production
inputs. This study aims to determine the effect and efficiency of the use of shallot
production inputs. The study was conducted in Songan B Village by analyzing
production inputs such as area of arable land, seeds, manure, NPK fertilizer, solid
pesticides, liquid pesticides and labor by using the Cobb-Douglas production
function.The data used were data in the March, April, and May planting season of 48
respondents determined by a simple random method. Efficiency can be seen from the
comparison of marginal production values and production input prices. The results
showed that the area of cultivated land, NPK fertilizer and labor had a positive effect on
the shallot production. Solid pesticides negatively affected the shallot production, while
the seeds, manure and liquid pesticides had no significant effect. The inefficient use of
production inputs is the area of cultivated land and NPK fertilizer, so that its use must
be increased, while other production inputs are inefficient that their uses must be
reduced.
