It is interesting and necessary to find out how contribution of agricultural sector to farmer income and what effect of land authority imbalance to income distribution. This research was conducted at Temon and Keduang sub watershed. Survey method was adapted to collect the field data. Afterward, the collected data was analyzed quantitatively. The result indicated that the contribution of agricultural sector to farmer income at Temon sub watershed (69.39%) was hhigher than at Keduang sub watershed (59.11%). This showed that narrow in land authority will be increasing the contribution of agricultural sector to total income. It related to diversify efforts of land using. Imbalance of land authority not always affected the income imbalance, caused by development of non agricultural sector. Land access only was unfeasible to be an indicator of farmers household income level without considering the biophysics condition and non agricultural sector growth development.

The research is conducted in Ngombakan and Mrangeen, two villagein district of polokarto, Sukoharjo regency. The two villages employe two different irrigation systems, one technical and the other non-technical.

The sample include 225 respondents selected in proportion. They consist of 75 respondents that come from the village employing the technial irrigation. And 150 respondents from that employing the non-technical irrigation. The samples are taken in random. The analysis is conducted by means of cross-table analysis, frequency distribution, and product moment correlation.The result of the reasearch show that 1) there is small rate of land holding in two village; 2) there is a great deal of inequality  of land holding in the two villages in which it is higher in Mranggen than that in Ngombakan (Gini index in Mranggen is 0.668, where as that in Ngombakan is 0.602); 3) there is a considerable inequality of agricultural income in which Mranggen is higher than Ngombakan; 4) there is a slight differene of household income in two villages; 5) there is positive correlation between the widht of land holding and the agricultural income, non agricultural income as well as the household income in Mranggen; 6) there is a positive correlation between the widht of land holding and agricultural income but there is no significant correlation between the widht of land holding and the non agricultural income as well as that of the household. The study was found out that the non-agricultural sector is playing an inreasingly important role in the distribution of household income. The inequality of agricultural income in the villages is considerably high but the inequality of the total income as well as that of the income per capita is relatively low. The contribution of the agricultural sector to the total income is lower than that of the non-agricultural.

Ketidakpastian pendapatan yang diperoleh oleh kepala keluarga sebagai nelayan mendorong anggota rumah tangga lainnya seperti istri dan anak untuk bekerja agar dapat memenuhi kebutuhan hidup rumah tangga. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui peran istri nelayan dalam meningkatkan pendapatan rumah tangga menurut jenis pekerjaan yang dilakukan dan pendapatan yang diperoleh serta besarnya sumbangan pendapatan tersebut untuk meningkatkan pendapatan rumah tangga. Penelitian dilakukan pada tahun 2013 di Desa Penjajab, Kabupaten Sambas. Metode penelitian menggunakan metode survei. Pengambilan responden dilakukan secara purposive sampling. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar istri nelayan di Desa Penjajab memiliki pekerjaan sebagai pengolah produk perikanan (kerupuk, ikan kering dan terasi). Rataan besarnya nilai pendapatan istri nelayan adalah Rp.372.400,-/bln. Kontribusi pendapatan istri terhadap total pendapatan rumah tangga adalah sebesar 24,04%. Pekerjaan yang dilakukan oleh istri dan kepala keluarga dalam rumah tangga nelayan memiliki karakteristik yang sama, sangat tergantung pada musim. Ketika pendapatan kepala keluarga meningkat maka kecenderungan pendapatan pada istri nelayan juga meningkat. Hal ini dikarenakan bahan baku ikan olahan berasal dari hasil tangkapan suami. Meningkatkan partisipasi istri dan anggota keluarga dalam bekerja merupakan salah satu usaha strategis saat ini untuk meningkatkan pendapatan rumah tangga. Pengembangan usaha diluar sektor perikanan sangat penting dilakukan, mengingat tingkat pendapatan dari sektor perikanan masih rendah karena sangat dipengaruhi oleh musim. (Role of Fisher’s Wife to Increase the Household Income (Case study in the Penjajab Village, Pemangkat Sub District of Sambas))Uncertainty income earned by the head of the family as a fisher push other household members, such as wives and children to work in order to meet the household needs.

Work performed by the wife and the head of the family in the fisher households have the same characteristics, is highly dependent on the season. When the head of the family income increases, the tendency of the fishers wife revenue also increased. This is because the raw material processed fish catch comes from the husband.

Land tenure is given attention in the general discussions on conservation and management of natural resources, but the necessary holistic approach to understand the linkages is less considered. Thus, we considered a watershed as a unit of reference and Integrated Watershed Management as a holistic land and water resources management approach with various roles and touchpoints with land tenure issues. To examine the role of land tenure on the management of natural resources in watersheds, we reviewed and compiled literature that captures watershed issues, integrating aspects of land tenure, and aiming to identify the key land tenure roles, dynamics, and its influences on integrated watershed management. Land tenure is observed playing various roles in watersheds and, thus, also on integrated watershed management as an approach—as a driver of change, influence for investment decisions, an incentive for adoption of practices, and leading to sustainability. Land tenure dynamics range from land tenure security, land tenure forms, land access and acquisition modalities, and how these aspects of land tenure relate with integrated watershed management.

A person’s livelihood consists of her/his abilities, assets and activities required for a means of living. A gender analysis in the context of rural livelihood enables us to identify the different activities that men and women do. This paper intends to examine the role of gender in determining livelihood aspects like occupation structure and migration. It also investigates the role played by gender in determining employment, family income, and income distribution of individuals. The study is based on a census of 143 households of a village from the Bhadrak district of Odisha. The study observes significant gender gap in occupation structure, and income distribution across gender. If women are employed, household income increases significantly.
