【 摘 要 】

This research aimed to (1) analyzetechnical efficiency level of rice farming with System of Rice Intensificationand non-System of Rice Intensification and (2) analyze the factors thataffected technical efficiency of rice farming. The research was conducted inMorowali Regency Indonesia. The populations in this research were farmerassociations of water users, who membered as many as 104 household heads.Sampling was done by census. The number of samples that were used as many as104 household heads, 47 household heads of rice farmers with System of RiceIntensification and 57 household heads of farmers with non-System of RiceIntensification. The result showed rice farming with System of RiceIntensification had a higher technical efficiency level when compared with ricefarming with non-System of Rice Intensification. This was due to rice farmingwith System of Rice Intensification had more farmers who used organicfertilizers. The usage of organic fertilizers, age of farmers, education offarmers, frequency of following extension and System of Rice Intensificationaffected toward the technical efficiency of rice farming. Farmers couldincrease organic rice production with System of Rice Intensification.
