Daftar Isi:
- Biochar has been proven to increase the availability of soil nutrient, yield productivity and farmers income. Biochar can be made from forestry/agricultural waste and do not required high technology. The objective of this study were: (1) to analyze Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) of biochar made from rice husk, (2) to compare yield productivity of paddy with biochar treatment, and (3) to analyze of paddy farming system with biochar treatment. The methodology by using BCR and productivity approach. The result showed that, firstly, the BCR of biochar from rice husks was 1.35 which indicated that biochar productivity as feasible. Secondly, the provision of biochar and fertilizer on agricultural could increase rice productivity of 4.2 ton/ha (control treatment) to 5.5 ton/ha (treatment biochar + organic fertilizer) and 6 ton/ha (treatment biochar + organic fertilizer + chemical fertilizers). Thirdly, the benefit cost ratio of paddy farming system for control treatment (1.54), higher than biochar+organic fertilizer treatment (1.46) and biochar+organic fertilizer+chemical fertilizer treatment.
- Biochar terbukti dapat meningkatkan ketersediaan unsur hara dalam tanah, meningkatkan produktivitas dan menambah pendapatan petani. Biochar dapat dibuat dari limbah kehutanan/pertanian dan tidak membutuhkan teknologi tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) Menganalisis rasio manfaat biaya pembuatan biochar dari limbah sekam padi, (2) Membandingkan produktivitas tanaman padi dengan perlakuan biochar, dan (3) Menganalisis usaha tani padi sawah dengan perlakuan biochar. Metode penelitian menggunakan BCR dan pendekatan produktivitas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, pertama, rasio manfaat biaya pembuatan biochar dari limbah sekam padi sebesar 1,35yang menunjukkan usaha biochar layak dilaksanakan. Kedua, pemberian biochar dan pupuk di lahan pertanian dapat meningkatkan produktivitas padi dari 4,2 ton/ha (perlakuan kontrol) menjadi 5,5 ton/ha (perlakuan biochar+pupuk organik) dan 6 ton/ha (perlakuan biochar+pupuk organik+pupuk kimia). Ketiga, rasio manfaat biaya usaha tani padiperlakuan kontrol (1,54), lebih tinggi dibandingkan rasio manfaat biaya usaha padi perlakuan biochar+pupuk organik (1,46) dan rasio manfaat biaya usaha padi perlakuan biochar+pupuk organik+pupuk kimia.
