KAYLA DEVINA AZ-ZAHRA. Analisis Tingkat Pemahaman Petani dalam Penyusunan Rencana Definitif Kebutuhan Kelompok (RDKK) di Desa Cibunian. Dibimbing oleh MUHAMMAD IQBAL NURULHAQ dan TRI BUDIARTO. Penyaluran pupuk bersubsidi di Desa Cibunian kerap tidak tepat sasaran akibat ketidakakuratan penyusunan Rencana Definitif Kebutuhan Kelompok (RDKK). Penelitian yang dilakukan bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi permasalahan petani, menganalisis tingkat pemahaman, serta mengevaluasi kesesuaian pengisian data RDKK. Pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif digunakan dengan dukungan data kualitatif melalui kuesioner, observasi, dan wawancara mendalam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tingkat pemahaman petani terhadap RDKK berada pada kategori sedang. Temuan baru yang krusial mengungkapkan tingginya angka ketidaksesuaian data luas lahan (80%) akibat praktik penggelembungan (mark-up) dengan memasukkan lahan garapan pihak lain. Meskipun kesesuaian data komoditas tergolong baik, masih ditemukan pengalihan alokasi pupuk subsidi ke tanaman non-subsidi sebagai dampak dari dinamika pergiliran tanaman di lapangan. Implikasi dari temuan tersebut menegaskan urgensi pendampingan administratif yang lebih ketat dari penyuluh pertanian serta transparansi sistem informasi kuota pupuk di tingkat desa guna meminimalkan maladministrasi dan menjamin efektivitas program subsidi. Kata kunci : Pemahaman petani, pupuk bersubsidi, RDKK, maladministrasi

ABSTRACT KAYLA DEVINA AZ-ZAHRA. Analysis of Farmer’s Level of Understanding in the Preparation of the Definitive Group Needs Plan (RDKK) in Cibunian Village. Supervised by MUHAMMAD IQBAL NURULHAQ and TRI BUDIARTO. The distribution of subsidized fertilizer in Cibunian Village often misses its target due to inaccuracies in the preparation of the Definitive Group Needs Plan (RDKK). This study aimed to identify farmer’s problems, analyze their level of understanding, and evaluate the accuracy of the data entered into the RDKK. A descriptive quantitative approach was used, supported by qualitative data collected through questionnaires, observations, and in-depth interviews. The results showed that farmer’s level of understanding of the RDKK fell into the moderate category. A crucial new finding revealed a high rate of discrepancies in land area data (80%) resulting from “mark-up” practices, where land cultivated by others was included in their own records. Although the accuracy of commodity data was relatively good, the diversion of subsidized fertilizer allocations to non-subsidized crops was still observed as a result of crop rotation dynamics in the field. The implications of these findings underscore the urgency of stricter administrative oversight by agricultural extension officers and greater transparency in the fertilizer quota information system at the village level to minimize mismanagement and ensure the effectiveness of the subsidy program. Keywords: Farmer’s understanding, subsidized fertilizer, RDKK, maladministration.
