Abstract

Abstract: Strategies adopted in the effort to achieve food self-sufficiency is through the provision of quality seeds of new high-yielding varieties in accordance with farmers' preferences. The availability of quality seeds in sufficient quantities, on time and easily obtained by farmers plays an important role. Farmers often experience significant losses, both in terms of cost and time, due to the use of low quality seeds. Therefore, although plant growth and production is greatly influenced by climatic conditions and farming practices, it is important to remember the importance of quality selection seeds to be used. Propagation of corn starts from the provision of seed types 1) Breeder Seed (BS) 2) Foundation seed (FS), 3) Stock seed (SS) dan 4) Extension seed (ES). Continuity of the seed multiplication plot is very influential on the availability of seed sources in accordance with needs seed producers / breeders and determine the process of seed dispersal production. The smooth flow of seed propagation also greatly determines the speed of spread of new high yielding varieties. In a financial analysis study on corn breeding farming that has been carried out in Bantaeng Regency, South Sulawesi, it shows that farming in one planting season can get a profit of IRD 37.975.000, 00. Circumstances where deep farming operation does not make a profit and does not suffer losses if it is able to produce seed as much as 678 kg While the payback period for investment / PBP (Pay Back Period) is 0, 95. Therefore, hybrid maize farming is said to be very feasible where each using a cost of IRD. 1, - or one rupiah can get a benefit of IRD. 2, 54
