Abstract

Maize is one of the items in agriculture sub-sector food crops, which has a high-level carbohydrate and substitutes for other food sources besides rice. Maize has its superiority that all of its product’s yield can be utilized, starting from seeds, leaves, skin and even maize cobs can be used. East Java Province and Madura island are several provinces of the corn producing areas. Increasing the maize production is accompanied by the mounting consumption in population and industry. Hence, the Government publishes a policy for improvement of production by improving irrigation. This paper will conduct an analysis related to government policy on irrigation improvements to increase maize production by simulating with a system dynamics approach. Besides that, this paper will insert a variable expansion plant area (extensification), improved irrigation performance (intensification) and treatment of maize seed (intensification) to use in scenario model system dynamics. System dynamics approach is used because can give of the information related to variables and feedback to the system.
