Farmers are rational in decision making process with respect to any introduced agricultural technology. Farmers may consider the economic sacrifices in term of additional cost and potential benefit or additional income before they accept and adopt the introduced technology. This study aimed to analyze farmer’s criteria and determine explanatory variables affecting farmer’s decision to accept or to adopt submergence tolerant (Sub-1) rice varieties at flash flood and flood prone affected rice area. The study was conducted in Indramayu District, West Java, and Kayu Agung District, South Sumatra. Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) that derived Willingness to Accept (WTA) approach was exercised to analyze explanatory variables that influence farmers’ willingness to accept introduced rice varieties. The results showed that the economic cost of flooding that damaged rice was about US$7.63 million in Kayu Agung and US$11.25 million in Indramayu in every wet season planting. Farmer’s criteria used in submergence tolerant varietal evaluation varied and location specific in nature. Most of explanatory variables used in the model were significantly influenced farmers’ WTA for submergence tolerant rice varieties such as: (1) availability of seed, (2) submergence tolerant for more than 14 days, (3) high yield, (4) proffer rice taste, (5) households’ income during normal year, (6) area planted during normal year, and (7) age of farm household head. The only indicator that did not significantly influence the farmers’ WTA for the Sub-1 rice varieties was farm household income during the flood year cropping.

Sejak Pemerintah Provinsi DKI Jakarta mengambil alih kegiatan pengelolaan sampah di TPST Bantargebang menjadi swakelola, dasar penganggaran dana kompensasi yang dianggarkan setiap bulannya tidak lagi menggunakan prosentase dari biaya pengolahan sampah yang dibayarkan kepada pihak swasta. Untuk itu diperlukan suatu rumusan sebagai dasar penganggaran dana kompensasi yang baru. Penelitian ini dilakukan sebagai upaya mencari dasar penganggaran dana kompensasi yang lebih menggambarkan nilai kerugian yang dirasakan oleh masyarakat. Metode survei dilakukan untuk mengetahui kesediaan masyarakat terhadap besaran dana kompensasi yang ingin mereka terima (willingness to accept) sebagai akibat kerusakan lingkungan. Hasil survei menunjukkan bahwa dana kompensasi yang mereka terima saat ini masih dibawah kerugian akibat kerusakan lingkungan, mengingat perbaikan untuk kerusakan lingkungan belum tangani secara komprehensif dan dampaknya masih harus mereka terima dalam jangka panjang. Selama belum ada perbaikan lingkungan yang signifikan, hasil analisis willingness to accept pada penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai dasar penganggaran bagi dana kompensasi. ......Since the Provincial Government of Jakarta takes over waste management activities in Bantargebang Integrated Waste Disposal Site (TPST) and makes it self-managed, the budgeting for monthly compensation funds is no longer based on the percentage of waste management fee paid to the private operator. It is therefore required a formula as the new basis for compensation funds budgeting. This study aims to seek a compensation funds budgeting basis that better reflects the loss value experienced by the community. A survey method is conducted to find out the people's willingness to accept the amount of funds they wish to receive to compensate the environmental damage. The survey results indicate that the compensation they receive is still under the value of loss from environmental damage, given the environmental damage that has not been fixed comprehensively and the long-term impact they will have to face. As long as there is no significant environmental improvement, the willingness to accept analysed in this study can be used as the basis for compensation funds budgeting.
