THE EFFECT OF WETLAND MANAGEMENT AND AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY ON ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY IN SOUTH SUMATRAIcuk Muhammad Sakir, Sriati, Ardiyan Saptawan and Restu JuniahAbstract Indonesiaâs population in 2020 is around 271 million, so it requires 30.24 million tons of rice for consumption. Rice produced from the agricultural culture on dry land and swamps. Swamplands consist of wetland and tidal lowlands. This study aims to examine the effect of wetland swamp management and agricultural productivity on environmental sustainability. The research method used is quantitative to know the influence between variables using statistical analysis. The results showed that the average score of wetland management was 3.33 and the Respondent Achievement Level (RAL)) was 83.39% at the interval (80-<90), it was well categorized. The productivity of agricultural products an average score of 3.27 and the Respondent Achievement Level (RAL)) of 81.79% good category. The average score for environmental sustainability is 3.29 and the Respondent Achievement Level (RAL) 82.21%, including the good of criteria categories. Wetland management and agricultural productivity partially and simultaneously effect on environmental sustainability. The influence is 36.2%, the remaining 63.8% do not influence the other variables outside the regression equation of this study. This influence of level interpreted by the correlation coefficient, is in the interval 0.20-0.399, meaning that the independent variable has a low effection on the dependent variable. Wetland management and agricultural productivity are not the main factors that affect the environmental sustainability of the swamp. The other factors are not included, in the variables of this study. |
