Abstract

Abstract: The land is one of the production factors direct influence on farming efficiency, especially due to the devision and fragmentation of land plots. The multi-dimension of land issues could bring serious impact to agricultural development goals as well as the general goals of development, i.e., the goals of production, productivity, and food crop farming efficiency, especially in rice commodities. It could also threaten the food sovereignty program. The research aims to make farming modeling to increase efficiency and effectivity in land tenure for rice farming and employed descriptive analysis. The research result shows that the existence of rice farming was dominated by the family farming system, where since production to marketing was conducted by the farmer individually. Farmers were generally have joined in a long-established farming group. The farming group played a role as a non-formal organization in receiving subsidies from the government, either production equipment or agricultural machinery subsidies. Further, farming managed to incorporate reduced farming land devision and fragmentation as well as governed the varied land tenure systems. The management of agricultural land tenure systems through the Small Scale Corporate Farming (SSCF) model improved farming efficiency in terms of agricultural production equipment, machinery, and labor utilization. In addition, it also improved the effectiveness of the subsidy program and farming protection.
