Abstract : In 2019, the potential area of swamp land in South Kalimantan was 525,029 ha. However, the non-tidal swamp land still could not be utilized optimally by local farmers. A concrete step taken by the Provincial Government of South Kalimantan to maximize swamp land was the cultivation of floating rice in Hulu Sungai Selatan Regency. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that affect non-tidal swamp rice farmers in implementing floating rice cultivation in Hulu Sungai Selatan Regency, as well as to analyze the magnitude of costs, revenue, net income, and the feasibility of floating rice farming and conventional rice farming in Hulu Sungai Selatan Regency. Based on the results of the binary logit regression analysis at the 95% confidence level, the participation of non-tidal swamp rice farmers in implementing floating rice cultivation was affected by complexity, planting intensity, farmer participation in disseminating and/or providing technical guidance for the floating rice program, and knowledge of floating rice cultivation. In floating rice farming, the average total cost was IDR 2,098,020 per farming unit or IDR 42,693,817 per hectare, and the average revenue was IDR 2,288,097 per farming unit or IDR 46,575,414 per hectare, with an r slash c ratio value of 1.09. In conventional rice farming, the average total cost was IDR 8,247,407 per farming unit or IDR 8,495,418 per hectare, and the average revenue was IDR 10,753,629 per farming unit or IDR 11,077,006 per hectare, with an r/c ratio of 1.30. Based on the independent t-test results, there was no significant difference in average net income between floating rice farming and conventional rice farming.

Keywords : Floating Rice, Binary Logit Regression, Participation Factors, Net Income.
