Abstract This study aims to determine the level of economic feasibility of corn farming in dry land through the application of technological innovations using hybrid corn New High- Yielding varieties seeds. This research used a randomized design and was conducted on 1 hectare of land owned by farmers in Blang Gandai Village, Jeumpa District, Bireun, from April to October 2016. The data collection method was a survey qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative is the characteristics of the research location and an explanation of the hybrid corn varieties. While the quantitative is the analysis data of hybrid corn farming that has been calculated. Sources of data were obtained from information directly from farmers as many as 6 cooperators, were 3 farmers with an introduction practice and 3 farmers with farmers practice. The varieties used were Bima 3 dan Bima 4. Data were collected by interview using a questionnaire with a structured list of questions. The farming data analysis carried out includes the use of production facilities, the use of labor, and the level of efficiency of farming with financial analysis of the R/C ratio. The analysis used is revenue and income, income-to-cost balance (R/C) and income balance cost B/C. The results showed that economically both Bima 3 and Bima 4 varieties provide favorable results where the R/C of both is 1,82. This means that Bima 3 and Bima 4 varieties are very feasible to be developed to increase corn production in Bireun Districts on dry land.

Corn (Zea mays L.) is a potential agribusiness commodity in meeting food needs. In the national economy, corn is the second largest contributor after rice in the food subsector. One potential area for corn production is Kupang Regency which has a lot of marginal lands (dry land). This study aims to determine the factors that influence the production and technical efficiency of corn farming in Kupang Regency. This study, using the Cobb-Douglas production function method, is a functional form of the corn production function in the study area and the Stochastic Frontier method is estimated using the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) and Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) methods. The results showed that all the variables in the significant model were soil, seeds, Urea, KCL, SP36, pesticides and had signs that matched expectations. The study also found that farmers were technically efficient with an average of 75 percent and factors that had a significant influence on increasing technical personnel, namely age, formal education and income.

Abstrak: Saat ini kebutuhan jagung dunia semakin meningkat, dengan pemanfaatan yang luas seperti konsumsi manusia, pakan ternak, hingga kebutuhan industri. Menurut data Kementerian Pertanian, Kabupaten Malang merupakan salah satu sentra produksi tanaman palawija khususnya jagung di Indonesia. Namun saat ini berdasarkan data BPS, hasil produksi jagung di Kabupaten Malang mengalami penurunan. Hal ini terjadi karena kapasitas kerja pengolahan tanah yang dilakukan oleh petani Desa Pulungdowo tidak maksimal dikarenakan usia petani yang sudah tidak produktif untuk melakukan pengolahan tanah. Untuk meningkatkan hasil produksi jagung perlu dilakukan peningkatan SDM dan mekanisasi pertanian. Kebutuhan mekanisasi pertanian di Desa Pulungdowo merupakan sebuah alat pengolahan tanah cultivator yang dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai alat penyiang rumput yang juga dapat dimanfaatkan untuk menggemburkan tanah pada lahan kering. Dengan mekanisasi ini mutu pekerjaan pengolahan tanah menjadi lebih baik, selain itu lebih efisien dalam waktu dan biaya yang dikeluarkan. Kegiatan ini melibatkan petani jagung Desa Pulungdowo dan pemateri yang memberikan penyuluhan mengenai pembibitan tanaman jagung yang dilakukan secara persilangan. Metode yang digunakan pada kegiatan PKM ini adalah dengan melibatkan masyarakat dan memberikan solusi substitusi IPTEK berupa mekanisasi pertanian. Tahapan pelaksanaan kegiatan ini adalah rembug desa yang merupakan bentuk dari survei lapangan, pengadaan alat, penyuluhan mekanisasi pertanian dan pembibitan tanaman jagung, penyerahan alat dan pelatihan operasional perawatan mesin, serta evaluasi untuk mengetahui efektivitas alat. Kegiatan ini menghasilkan evaluasi yang menunjukkan bahwa petani jagung Desa Pulungdowo mampu mengoperasikan alat cultivator setelah dilakukan pelatihan penggunaan dan perawatan mesin, sehingga proses pengolahan tanah pertanian jagung yang dilakukan petani Desa Pulungdowo menjadi lebih efisien.Abstract: Currently, the world's need for corn is increasing, with wide use of such as human consumption, animal feed, to industrial needs. According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture, Malang Regency is one of the production centers for secondary crops, especially maize in Indonesia. However, currently based on BPS data, corn production in Malang Regency has decreased. This happens because the working capacity of land cultivation carried out by the farmers in Pulungdowo Village is not optimal due to the age of the farmers who are not productive enough to cultivate the land. To increase the yield of maize production, it is necessary to increase human resources and agricultural mechanization. The need for agricultural mechanization in Pulungdowo Village is a tool for cultivating land for cultivators that can be used as a tool for weeding which can also be used to loosen the soil on dry land. With this mechanization, the quality of soil processing work will be better, besides that it is more efficient in terms of time and costs. This activity involved corn farmers in Pulungdowo Village and presenters who provided counseling on the breeding of corn which was carried out by crosses. The method used in this PKM activity is to involve the community and provide solutions to substitute science and technology in the form of agricultural mechanization. The stages of the implementation of this activity are village consultations which are a form of field survey, procurement of tools, counseling on agricultural mechanization and corn plant nurseries, delivery of tools and training on machine maintenance operations, and evaluation to determine the effectiveness of the tools. This activity resulted in an evaluation showing that the corn farmers in Pulungdowo Village were able to operate the cultivators after training on the use and maintenance of the machines so that the processing of corn farmland carried out by the farmers in Pulungdowo Village became more efficient

       The decline in sweet corn production needs to be done to increase production through the use of dry land, both those that have become agricultural land and those that have not been used. In the business of using dry land it is often found that problems such as productivity decline rapidly, low soil fertility and many types of weeds. Especially wide, narrow weed leaves and woody shrubs. Experiment using Split Plot Design. The main plot is the dose of glyphosate consists of 3 levels, namely g1= 1,5 l/ha, g2 = 2 l/ha, dan g3 = 2,5  l/ha. The subplot is a 2,4-D dose consisting of 3 levels, namely d1 = 0,5 l/ha, d2 = 1 l/ha, d3= 1,5 l/ha. The use of a herbicide mixture of glyphosate and 2,4-D was able to shift the weed composition with a value of C of 68.75% at 2 days before harvest. Glyphosate herbicide dose of 1.5 l/ha was able to produce plant growth rates of 2.23607813 g cm-2 days-1, and the weight of the selling cob was 129,408 g
