Abstract

Rice is an agricultural crop and until now it is the main crop in the world. Since ancient times, among food crops, rice has been the main crop of Indonesian farmers. Rice can be planted in dry land or wet land or commonly called rice fields. The majority of farmers in Indonesia are small farmers or smallholders with a narrow farm area. Among the narrow land, not all of them are in the form of rice fields. Most of it is dry land planted with various crops, fruits and vegetables. In the 1980s to 2000s the soil content of the tidal fields in Sungai Sahurai Village generally depended on the properties of the soil and water in this tidal land, namely acid sulphate soil with pyrite compounds. In contrast to the tidal irrigation system used in the Sungai Sahurai Village area, namely by using a one-way flow system. The implementation of this system depends on the agreement on setting the floodgates. If one of the tertiary channels functions as an intake channel (irrigation), then the tertiary channel next to it is used as a drainage channel. The inlet channel is provided with a water gate that opens inward, so that at high tide the water can enter and the water cannot come out at low tide. And in this research method using heuristic techniques, verification, interpretation and historiography. The advantages and disadvantages of this local variety of rice have long been known to the local farming community in Sungai Sahurai Village, and it was under these conditions that their local knowledge of rice management in tidal lowland was developed. Each type of tidal paddy overflow in Sungai Sahurai Village also has its own peculiarities, in addition to various basic similarities in its cultivation techniques. These differences also give birth to various local knowledge of the types of tidal rice fields. The cultivation system of local varieties of rice in tidal rice fields includes land clearing, land cultivation, variety selection, nurseries, planting, plant maintenance, to harvesting and post-harvest activities. besides the various basic similarities in cultivation techniques. These differences also give birth to various local knowledge of the types of tidal rice fields.
