Local Adaptation to Extreme Weather and It’s Implication on Sustainable Rice Production in Lampung, Indonesia

Extreme weather incidents refer to high rainfall and strong winds have been speculated be detrimental on rice production. However, researches the local adaptation their impact production are limited especially tropical region like Indonesia. A study was conducted in Pesawaran, West Lampung, North Bandar Lampung using time series data of 2000-2015 ground checking during extreme normal seasons its implication sustainable management. Data were evaluated multivariate regressions. Results demonstrated that reduction weak, 0.92%. Shifting among swampy, irrigated, dry lands at which covered area 13.67%, 42.69% 43.65%, respectively, minimized weather. During precipitation, irrigated swamplands had 2.5-3.0 times cropping intensity. Conversely, La-Nina with excess drylands increased by 20 58%, respectively. Moreover, government maintained annual improvement about 5% through expansion land, yielding varieties inputs subsidies. Considering incident weathers tended occur more frequently, consequently, planting calender utilization variety adapted should implemented.
