factors that affecting the harvest area

There are several factors that can affect the estimated ups and downs of the harvest area. Among them is the issue of climate, labor and grain prices. Climate influences can cause the occurrence of most agricultural crops or crops that are not optimally so that the results are less than expected. Climate factors are factors that are difficult to handle because it has to do with nature. You can do just that hapening to work towards being more minimal.

The second factor is the problem of manpower in agriculture mainly paddy field rice farming. If the agricultural workforce suffered a decline then will cause reduced the planting so that the area will experience a decrease in the harvest. Fenonema happens is a lot of young workers who are not interested to plunge into the world of agriculture. So the lack of a regeneration of the workforce. This is because the younger workforce is preferred to another, e.g. practicing industrial sectors such as a factory laborer or the service sector with the man power of indonesia (TKI).

Other factors more influential to the ups and downs of broad price grain harvest is a problem. During the 2000 grain prices fall, although often the Government has done a price adjustment, the reality at the time the grain harvest grain prices fell below the standards precisely. While the prices of fertilizers and pesticides increased quite sharply causing increased production costs. This will cause the farmer income insufficient for the cost of production of next season. If this continues, then the agricultural sector particularly rice paddy tananaman would be considered not profitable anymore so people are reluctant to plant padi so that rice production will decrease. In certain months between May-August, the farmers of rice paddy was more switching to plant tobacco. This is done because the price of tobacco is higher than the price of grain, so that more farmers income increase when working for the tobacco plant.
