Daftar Isi:
  • Acidic dryland is a marginal land with a low level of productivity, so that the level of income of farmers is also low, especially farmers doing monoculture farming. One effort to increase farmers' income is through intercropping technology innovation. Research on rice-corn and soybean-corn intercropping farming has been carried out in Tambang Emas Village, Pamenang Selatan, Merangin District, Jambi Province, from 2018-2019. The results showed that the farmer's income from soybean-corn intercropping technology was Rp. 18,000,000 to Rp. 21,200,000 per planting season or higher compared to Rp 5,450,000 - Rp. 11,700,000 - per planting season on the monoculture of rice, corn, or soybean. The revenue-cost ratio (R/C) for the intercropping pattern is 1.72 - 2.04, while the monoculture pattern is 1.13-2.00. Keywords: Analysis, farming, intercropping, paddy, acid soil
