ANALISIS PERSEPSI DAN PENDAPATAN PETANI PESERTA ASURANSI USAHATANI PADI (AUTP) DI KECAMATAN BRATI KABUPATEN GROBOGAN

Abstract

Climatic conditions that often change and are difficult to predict have a negative impact
on natural disasters such as floods, droughts and increasing pest attacks that affect crop
damage. Efforts to minimize this by participating in the rice farming business insurance
program. Farmers' participation in the AUTP program is still low, therefore it is
necessary to know the perception of farmers towards AUTP. Production inputs used by
farmers are not optimal, which can result in non-optimal production yields and farmer
income. The purpose of this study is to analyze farmers' perceptions of AUTP, rice
farming income with Grobogan MSE, factors that affect the income of AUTP farmers.
This study was conducted in Lemah Putih Village with a sample of 60 farmers from a
population of 105 farmers. Determination of the number of samples taken using the
Slovin method where respondents were taken proportionally sampling. Data analysis
method with likert scale, multiple linear regression, one sample t test. The results of the
research on farmers' perceptions of the AUTP program are overall in the good category.
The perception of farmers in terms of socialization is not good, participant registration is
very good, premiums are good, claims and benefits are not good. Rice farming is
profitable compared to Grobogan MSE. The cost of seeds, labor, farm experience has a
significant effect on income. Fertilizer costs, selling prices of rice have no real effect on
income
