Rice Tiles Survey Subround III 2023

One of BPS's tasks is to provide food crop productivity data, one of which is through the Ubinan Survey method. This survey is routinely carried out by BPS Bandar Lampung City. The data collection period is carried out every subround (four months). Productivity data collection is carried out at the time farmers harvest by direct measurements in the field (rice fields/moors) on selected tile plots measuring 2 ½ m x 2 ½ m. Food crop data collected includes rice, corn, soybeans, peanuts, cassava and sweet potatoes. The aim of the Ubinan Survey is to obtain data on food crop productivity needed to calculate food crop production figures. For Bandar Lampung, the Ubinan Survey carried out is only Rice Tiles and Secondary Crops.
This rice tile survey activity was preceded by training activities for field officers. The number of rice tile survey officers at BPS Bandar Lampung City is 4 PPL and 2 PML. The tiling survey is carried out based on crop harvest subrounds, that is, each year there are 3 subrounds. Subround I covers January-April 2023, Subround II covers May-August 2023, and subround III covers September-December 2023. The number of plots in the survey sample in subround I is 78 plots, subround II is 25 plots, and subround III a total of 56 plots.
One of the challenges of the Ubinan survey is that it does not recognize the word holiday, tilean can be held at any time on Saturday or Sunday. Because the Ubinan survey depends on when the farmer will harvest. Hopefully the hard work of officers in the field will produce quality food data.
