Barriers to horticulture in several developing countries, including Indonesia, include low farmer income, limited farmer knowledge, limited farmer land ownership, and weak farmer supply situations. This results in reduced profits for farmers. One way to overcome these obstacles that can be done by the Rukun Tani farmer group is to establish a partnership with PT Agri Makmur Pertiwi. This study aims to analyze the partnership pattern in cucumber hatcheries and its impact on increasing farm income. This research used descriptive qualitative and quantitative methods with a case study approach on 20 respondents who established partnerships with hatchery companies. Data were collected through questionnaires, in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. Data were tested using the t-test. The results show that the partnership pattern applied is a core-plasma partnership, where the core company provides production facilities, provides guidance, transportation costs, and market guarantees. The farmer group acts as a plasma that provides land, labor, agricultural tools, fertilizers, and manages cucumber farming according to the standards set by the core company. The results of the difference test show that there are differences in income before and after partnering. Income before partnering was IDR 18,053,507.5 and income after partnering was IDR 35,622,807.5.

Urban yards can be used for organic urban farming by growing vegetables without the use of chemicals. By doing this, the need for nutritious and healthy food at the family level can be met. One of the disadvantages of growing vegetables in the yard is neglecting plant care, especially watering. This causes the plants to lack water and the resulting vegetables wilt and even die. A drip irrigation system using either a hose or emitter can be applied to meet plant water needs. However, the characteristics of organic urban farming actors have an impact on the choice of irrigation type applied in their respective yards. Therefore, the aim of this research is to analyze the characteristics of respondents and identify the considerations of respondents in determining the type of irrigation used. The analytical method used is descriptive qualitative. The research results showed that the majority of respondents were of productive age, with the highest level of education being high school, and the type of work was as workers (civil servants, private sector and entrepreneurs). Considerations in determining the type of irrigation are the level of complexity, availability of time, ease of implementation.

Lowland rice as a type of food crop has been widely cultivated by farmers. This is because rice is oneof the staple foods of the community. Lowland rice farming carried out by farmers requires several factorsof production to be able to produce the expected production. The use of production factors certainlyrequires funds that must be spent by farmers for their procurement or purchase. The costs associated withpurchasing factors of production will ultimately affect the amount of income farmers receive. Therefore,farmers need to know the production costs incurred and their effect on income. Farmers are expected tomake several efforts to make efficient use of several factors of production so that they can increase theirincome to improve the welfare of farmers. The effect of production factor costs was analyzed using multiplelinear regression analysis. The hypothesis was tested by comparing the sig values obtained from theanalysis results with a value of 0.0 5. The test results using simultaneous and partial tests stated that landrental costs, seed costs, fertilizer and pesticide costs had a significant effect on farmers' income. Land rentalcosts and seed costs have a positive effect on farmers' income, where an increase/decrease in these costswill increase or decrease farmer income. Fertilizer and pesticide costs have a negative effect on farmers'income, whereby increasing/decreasing these costs will decrease/increase farmers' income. The cost ofrenting a tractor and the cost of labor wages have no effect on farmers' income
