Abstract

Despite its important role in agricultural water management in tidal lowlands, water service has not yet been considered as an input in crop production. The cost of water service is still born to the government budget such that budget cut will consequently results in abandoning of operation and maintenance of water infrastructures. This paper examines whether water service is a determinant of tidal farmland value. A survey involving 500 farmers was conducted in Telang, a rice production center in tidal lowland area of South Sumatra Province, Indonesia. Hedonic Property Value analysis was employed to provide answer to this examination. Analysis revealed that the value of tidal farmland with water service was significantly higher than that without water service. The value of tidal farmland was determined by soil fertility, distance to the local markets, the availability of water service, and farmland productivity. Being one of the significant determinants of tidal farmland value, imposing fee upon water service will expectedly be followed by farmers’ willingness to pay for the fee.
