Abstract

Farmers Cards have been distributed to farmers in Jember Regency since 2019, however the use of these farming cards is still limited by farmers. This can be caused by the lack of role of agricultural institutions in Jember Regency. The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of agricultural institutions on farmers decisions in using farmer cards in Jember Regency. The sample used was 60 farmers consisting of 48 farmers using farmer cards and 12 non user farmers who were taken using the cluster sampling method, where the sample used is spread across three districts namely Ambulu, Wuluhan and Balung Districts. Data analysis using binary logistic regression analysis. The results showed that age had a significant effect with a negative sign on farmers decisions. While the dummy variable for the existence of farmer groups, the dummy variable for the existence of irrigation institutions, farmer education, the dummy variable for knowledge of the use of farmer cards, and the experience of farmers have a significant and positive effect on farmers decisions in using farmer cards. There is a need for socialization of the use of farmer cards through agricultural institutions such as farmer groups so that the use of farmer cards will increase
