Analisis Risiko Usahatani Jagung (Zea mays L. Merr) (Kasus : Kecamatan Dolok Masihul, Kabupaten Serdang Bedagai)

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of production risk, price risk, and corn farming income risk is and to analyze the feasibility of corn farming against the risks in Kecamatan Serdang Bedagai. Where the risk measures used include variance, standard deviation, and the coefficient of variation and the lower limit of the highest yield. The data analysis method used is the risk analysis and the feasibility analysis. The results showed that the highest risk was income risk with a coefficient of variation (KV) of 0.249, then production risk of 0.143 and finally price risk of 0.105. The risk level of production, price and income of corn farming has a low risk in Dolok Masihul District. The Lower Limit of Highest Yield (L) is worth more than zero, so from a risk perspective, corn farming in Dolok Masihul District is feasible to continue. The value of the Lower Limit of Highest Yield (L) is 4,543 for production risk, 3,173 for price risk and 8,939,767 for income risk.
