Abstract

The location of the experiment was in the agro-ecosystem rainfed ricefield, Nogosari, Boyolali from June 2017 to September 2017. The research consisted of a survey of technology components commonly applied at the farmer level as well as demonstration plots of technology components in accordance with the integrated crop management of palawija (composite corn and local peanuts). Farmers’ understanding of the cultivation technology of peanuts and corn were very high. The yield of ubinan of Boyolali local peanut monoculture was still higher in farmer dosage (7.5 tons / ha) compared to the recommendation from Center for Agricultural Technology Studies (CATS) of Central Java. The yield of local peanut intercropping composite corn was higher (6.1 ton / ha) compared to the recommendation of CATS (5.0 ton / ha). The yield of monoculture corn cropping is 3.6 tones / ha at recommended dosage treatment and Provit A variety is 4 tons / ha. Meanwhile, the yield of corn in intercropping was experiencing crop failure. Thus, the intercropping pattern of peanuts and composite corn can be accepted by farmers and can develop in this area if assisted by dissemination in the form of demonstration plots in rainfed agro-ecosystems ricefield.
