- Abstract
Shoot grafting (grafting) on plants is a cultural technology that reduces production time compared to new planting methods. This has changed the habits of local coffee farmers, who previously carried out plantation activities only when entering the harvest season, to become more intentional because, generally, the nature of grafting coffee requires intensive attention and care to continue to bear fruit throughout the season. This research aims to analyze the impact of applying grafting to local varieties of coffee plants, especially in smallholder plantations, on the resulting production. Multi-stage sampling was used to choose326 coffee farmers divided into two farming groups, namely 120 farmers from the group of farmers who have implemented shoot grafting (as the treatment group) and 206 farmers who have not implemented shoot grafting or as the control group. The probity model estimates the probability of grafting and then chooses a matching algorithm. In the matching process between covariates, the nearest neighbor without replacement (NN) technique is a matching process for each covariate with only one chance. The results show that grafting technology has not significantly impacted the production of locally cultivated coffee. However, applying top grafting technology influences the number of plants and farmer experience.
