Abstract

Aim of this research was to determine sustainability indices based on ecological, economical, socio-cultural, technological and institutional dimensions, and their leverage analysis for the remaining rice fields in Air Manjuto irrigation area, Mukomuko District, Bengkulu Province.

Accuracy of MDS analysis was analyzed with goodness of fit and Monte Carlo analysis, while sensitive attributes was fitted with root mean square leverage analysis. The dimension threated the sustainability status was various attributes of economic dimension with a value 49.45 and socio- cultural perceptions with a value 45.46. It is important to strengthen the sustainability of rice cultivation on the remaining rice fields in the Air Manjuto irrigation area through more subsidized agricultural inputs and agricultural community development.
