Abstract
Abstract
Based on rice policy, this study shows that grain quality is the most important economically for farmers when selling rice. The study examines factors that influence farmers’ consideration of grain quality when selling GKP. Using a questionnaire, data were collected from 150 randomly selected farmers. Binary logistic regression model and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. Binary logit results show that variables such as age, area, and GKP price increase the likelihood that farmers consider grain quality when selling GK. On the other hand, increasing farmers’ education and experience levels has a negative impact on their ability to consider grain quality before selling GKP.
