摘要：This study aimed to analyze the decisions of farmers in the use of organic fertilizer and analyze the impact of the use of organic fertilizers on productivity and farm income. This study was conducted in Ngawi regency of East Java Province. A total of 88 farmers of paddy were used as respondents in this study. The logit regression and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to examine factors affecting farmers to adopt organic fertilizers and the impact of organic fertilizer on the productivity of rice farming. The results of the study showed field school, farmer ages, farmers 'education level and participation in farmer groups had a positive and significant influence on farmers' decisions to use organic fertilizer. Furthermore, the results of the PSM analysis show that farmers who use organic fertilizer obtain higher production than farmers who do not apply. This can be stated that the use of organic fertilizers is able to provide higher productivity and better agricultural sustainability.
