Abstract
Sustainable rice production is critical, especially in flood-prone areas, as it addresses food security while minimizing environmental impacts. The soil's elevated salt content is one of the primary cultivation issues in rice fields along the coast, which can lead to a decrease in yield and can even result in crop failure. The study aimed to integrate green manufacturing practices, which can significantly reduce flood risk and increase resilience in rice farming. The on-farm research was on the north coast of Semarang, a stretch of rice fields affected by floods, covering an area of 50 hectares. The multi-aspect sustainability analysis methodology complements the assessment results to obtain a production system with a sustainability index. The average value of total sustainability was 67.65, which means that rice farming in Semarang has a fairly sustainable status. Factors prioritized for improvement to improve the sustainability status of rice cultivation were environmental aspects (gap 9.67), economic aspects (gap 8.33), and social institutions (gap 6.54). The leverage factors of rice farming in the socio-institutional aspect were farmer age (sensitivity max 0.33 and sensitivity value 0.67) and rice farming experience (sensitivity max 0.20 and sensitivity value 0.60). Demonstration plot of high-salinity-resistant rice varieties using Biosalin1 and Biosalin2. Planting salinity-tolerant varieties was the most efficient way to reduce the negative impact of flooding caused by seawater rising to the ground level. Green manufacturing practices include low-external-input and sustainable agriculture, which utilize organic fertilizers and integrated pest management. The practice of using agricultural equipment that uses alternative fuels from plastic waste can save energy and lower emissions to minimize the carbon footprint of sustainable rice production.
