dc.description.abstract | The onion cultivation often faced various risks caused by many
factors, so farmers need to make the right decision to start onion
cultivation by paying attention to these risks. Therefore, this
research was conducted with the aim of 1) analyzing the income
risk faced by farmers in developing onion farming, 2) knowing the
factors that affect the farming risk, 3) knowing the factors that
influence farmers' decisions in planting onion. The research was
conducted in Purworejo Village for 4 months with 30 onion farmers
as the sample. To analyze the income risk faced by farmers in
developing onion farming, it was done by calculating the coefficient
of variation (CV). Minimum income was calculated by the residual
formula of the squared income function and to determine the
factors that influence farming income and farmers' decisions in
planting onion, multiple linear regression analysis was performed.
The research showed that the risk of onion farming income was
quite high, reached 79.72% and the factors that influence were land
area, total production, selling price, and production costs.
Meanwhile, the factors that influence the decision making of onion
farmers were education, age, and farmer experience. | en_US |
