Abstract

Abstract Over the past decade, smallholder rubber farming experienced significant issues related to risks of rainy season, rubber diseases, and price decreases. The risk exposure will reduce agricultural productivity, income, and sustainability. Farmers are expected to mitigate various risks by adopting the appropriate risk strategy. Efforts to support the risk strategy adoption are constrained by the lack of scientific research in rubber farming, especially for simultaneous risk strategy adoption. This study aims to identify the risk strategy adoption in rubber farming and analyse the determinant factors by considering farmers’ socioeconomic, rubber farm characteristics, and risk perception. The data were collected from 200 rubber farmers in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, and analysed using a multinomial logit model. The study results show that the most selected strategy was income diversification. The multinomial logit model indicates that farmers’ age, family members, rubber age, rubber clones, and rainy season risk perception positively affect the adoption of risk strategy. In contrast, experience, farm area, and farm distance have a negative effect. The results also indicate that family members, farm area, and farm distance variables significantly affect all choices of risk strategy adoption. The results of this study suggest several implications for government and policymakers in providing assistance and counselling, capital assistance, input access, and improving transportation, road access, and communication.

评估采用风险策略以减轻各种风险的决定因素:来自印度尼西亚西加里曼丹省橡胶小农的经验
摘要在过去的十年里,小农户橡胶种植经历了与雨季风险、橡胶疾病和价格下跌有关的重大问题。风险暴露将降低农业生产力、收入和可持续性。农民应通过采取适当的风险战略来减轻各种风险。由于橡胶种植缺乏科学研究,特别是在同时采用风险战略方面,支持采用风险战略的努力受到限制。本研究旨在通过考虑农民的社会经济、橡胶场特征和风险感知,确定橡胶养殖中采用的风险策略,并分析决定因素。这些数据是从印度尼西亚西加里曼丹的200名橡胶农民那里收集的,并使用多项式logit模型进行分析。研究结果表明,选择最多的策略是收入多元化。多项式logit模型表明,农民的年龄、家庭成员、橡胶年龄、橡胶无性系和雨季风险感知对风险策略的采用有积极影响。相比之下,经验、农场面积和农场距离具有负面影响。结果还表明,家庭成员、农场面积和农场距离变量显著影响风险策略采用的所有选择。这项研究的结果表明,政府和政策制定者在提供援助和咨询、资本援助、投入渠道以及改善交通、道路通道和通信方面存在一些问题。
