Usahatani semangka merupakan komoditas hortikultura yang berperan penting dalam meningkatkan pendapatan petani di Kecamatan Lape. Petani rata-rata menanam semangka setelah menanam padi dua kali dalam setahun, yaitu pada musim tanam kemarau I dan musim tanam kemarau II. Perbedaan kondisi iklim dan serangan hama antar musim tanam sering menyebabkan ketimpangan produksi yang berdampak pada fluktuasi pendapatan petani. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan membandingkan produksi, pendapatan, serta efisiensi usahatani semangka pada kedua musim tanam tersebut. Penelitian dilakukan di Kecamatan Lape Kabupaten Sumbawa dengan mengambil dua desa sampel, yaitu Desa Lape dan Desa Labuan Kuris yang dipilih secara purposive sampling berdasarkan produksi semangka terbanyak. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif komparatif dengan pendekatan kuantitatif terhadap 34 petani semangka yang dipilih secara proportional random sampling. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif kuantitatif melalui perhitungan produksi, pendapatan, efisiensi usahatani; kemudian diuji secara statistik dengan uji t untuk membandingkan kedua musim di atas. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa produksi, pendapatan dan efisiensi usahatani semangka pada musim tanam kemarau I lebih tinggi dan berbeda siginifikan dengan musim tanam kemarau II. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa kinerja usahatani semangka pada musim tanam kemarau I di Kecapatan Lape lebih baik dibandingkan musim tanam kemarau II.
Comparative Analysis of Production, Income and Efficiency of Watermelon Farming During Dry Season I and II in Lape District Sumbawa Regency
Abstract
Watermelon farming is a horticultural commodity that plays an important role in increasing farmer income in Lape District. Farmers generally plant watermelon after planting rice twice a year, namely in the first dry planting season and the second dry planting season. Differences in climate conditions and pest attacks between planting seasons often cause production imbalances that impact farmer income fluctuations. This study aims to analyze and compare watermelon production, income, and farming efficiency in the two planting seasons. The study was conducted in Lape District, Sumbawa Regency, by selecting two sample villages, namely Lape Village and Labuan Kuris Village, which were selected by purposive sampling based on the highest watermelon production. The study used a comparative descriptive method with a quantitative approach to 34 watermelon farmers selected by proportional random sampling. Data were analyzed descriptively quantitatively through calculations of production, income, and farming efficiency; then tested statistically with a t-test to compare the two seasons above. The results of the analysis showed that watermelon production, income, and farming efficiency in the first dry planting season were higher and significantly different from those in the second dry planting season. This finding confirms that the performance of watermelon farming in the first dry planting season in Lape District was better than in the second dry planting season.
