Research Abstract |
Development of seeds including rice varieties in Indonesia is done by small number of companies because of scale economy. In addition, after introducing a certification system to engage for quality of seeds, oligopolization in seed industry in Indonesia has been found since the number of companies which may respond to the system is limited. It is found from household survey that farmers who may take a risk plant rather high yield rice varieties with large standard deviation of yield and farmers who may attainhigher yield prefer to combine several varieties to respond to variation of yield because of climate change, insect damage and volatility in market.
