OPTIMIZATION OF RESOURCE ALLOCATION IN THE TUMPANG SARI BUSINESS SYSTEM IN TABANAN REGENCY, BALIPROVINCE

Land as a location for farming is the main asset managed by farmers. The area of land is directly proportional to the production of farming, the wider the area of land that is managed, the higher the products produced. The tumpeng sari farming system shows that land is used for the production of several commodities such as cocoa, coconut, bananas, and cattle if the commodities being cultivated do not experience significant disturbances. The research objectives are to analyze the gross income of smallholder plantation farming in Angkah Village and analyze the allocation of agricultural resources with the cocoa-coconut-banana crop intercropping system and cattle in Angkah Village. The research was conducted in Akah Village, West Selemadeg Sub-district, Tabanan Regency, with an intercropping farming system.
