Faktor-Faktor Yang Mempengaruhi Kesediaan Petani Dalam Membayar Jasa Lingkungan Air Padi Sawah

Abstract

The Air Sarap Sub-watershed is a sub-watershed located in Samadua Subdistrict, South Aceh Regency, where water from the Air Sarap Sub-watershed has been used for domestic household needs and rice field water supply needs. The impact of forest encroachment and land conversion on upstream sub-watersheds causes droughts in the dry season and floods in the rainy season, where floods that come in the rainy season destroyed most community infrastructure, such as houses, roads, bridges and agricultural irrigation which provide supply community wetland water. This research aims to analyze and determine factors that influence rice field farmers in paying for environmental services in the Air Sarap Sub-watershed which has been functioning as a water supplier in lowland rice farming
