3 Background Agriculture Development focus on increasing rice production. 2013: Basic Strategy of Agriculture Development : sustainable agriculture One of programs: System of Rice Intensification (SRI) Began 2001, in 2013 total organic certified area: 0.02% Support SRI implementation Economic benefits Social costs Internalize externalities

4 Objective and RQs Objective: to compare the social costs of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and conventional rice farming system for producing 1 kg unhulled rice. RQ: are the social costs of producing 1 kg unhulled rice using SRI higher than those for conventional rice farming? SRQs: 1. How high are the private production costs for producing 1 kg unhulled rice using SRI and conventional rice farming? 2. How high are the level and the damage cost of Green House Gases (GHGs) and non-ghgs emissions for producing 1 kg unhulled rice using SRI and conventional rice farming? 3. How high are the social cost of for producing 1 kg unhulled rice using SRI and conventional rice farming? 4. What policy recommendations can be offered to the Ministry of Agriculture Republic of Indonesia for expanding the area of rice fields using SRI?

23 Conclusions Production cost: System of Rice Intensification: 1,529 IDR/kg or 9.54 million IDR/ha. Conventional system: 1,128 IDR/kg or 7.42 million IDR/ha. The production cost of SRI is higher than conventional system due to the higher use of outside family labor that caused SRI farmers should pay total labor cost 2.3 times higher than conventional farmers.

24 Conclusions The quantity of CH 4 and N 2 O emission: Reduce CH 4 emission from 31.5 kg/ha/season to 18.9 kg/ha/season or 21.4%. Decrease N 2 O emission from kg/ha/season to kg/ha/season or 79.9%. The quantity of SO 2, NOx and PM 10 emission: Conventional system: , and kg/ha/season SRI system produced: , , and kg/ha/season

25 Conclusions Damage cost of CH 4 and N 2 O emission: Conventional system: 5 IDR/kg and 24 IDR/kg. SRI: 3 IDR/kg and 6 IDR/kg. Damage cost of SO 2, NOx and PM 10 emission: Conventional system, , and IDR/kg. SRI: , , and IDR/kg Total damage cost of GHGs and non-ghgs of producing 1 kg unhulled rice by applying SRI is 9 IDR/kg unhulled rice or 75.1% lower than implementing a conventional system (44 IDR/kg unhulled rice). Converting to 1 ha, the total damage cost of practicing SRI is 58,363 IDR/ha, however, by implementing conventional system, the total damage cost could reach 280,899 IDR/ha.

26 Conclusions The social cost of producing 1 kg unhulled rice: System of Rice Intensification: 1,572 IDR/kg unhulled rice. Conventional system : 1,289 IDR/kg unhulled rice. By counting all labors used in a production system as costs (S2), SRI s social cost is lower than conventional system and SRI farmers benefit is higher. By including cattle waste as cost (S3), SRI s social cost is higher than conventional system and conventional farmers benefit (NPB & NSB) is higher. By internalizing all labor and cattle waste as cost (S4), SRI s social cost is lower than conventional system but SRI farmers net social benefit is higher (per kg).

27 Policy Recommendations The results of this study shows that: Production costs of organic practice (SRI) is higher than conventional practices. SRI is more environmentally friendly than conventional system in terms of producing CH 4, N 2 O, SO 2, NOx and PM 10 emissions. This research provides data and information about the economic benefit of implementing SRI and the government is recommended to provide incentive (subsidy) for farmers who implement organic practice or SRI. (1) creating a floor price for organic rice products; (2) developing domestic market; (3) providing a price subsidy; (4) agricultural machinery
