Abstract— This study aims to see the implementation of
traditional irrigation management, analyze the factors of
irrigation management in South Sumatra. The method used in
this research is a survey. This research uses quantitative
descriptive analysis. Sampling was carried out purposively
using the proportional stratified random sampling method.
The total sample farmer respondents in this study amounted to
120 people from four villages who run their farms using
traditional irrigation located in Lahat district and Pagaralam
city. Data were analyzed using binary logit model, Wald test,
and t test. The results showed that the factors that influence
the management of traditional irrigation are water
distribution, water distribution, irrigation pollution and the
role of irrigation institutions, with the coefficient of
determination obtained is 0.699 or 69.9 percent.

I. INTRODUCTION
Traditional irrigation is a cultural asset of South
Sumatra in agriculture that needs to be preserved. Similar to
subak irrigation in Bali, traditional irrigation in South
Sumatra has many community cultural values that have
existed since ancient times. The cultural values contained in
the technical management that describe the strong culture of
mutual assistance in the village community to the technical
maintenance of irrigation facilities and several terms in the
use of irrigation facilities that take place in the
community.Concludes that the average production of
lowland rice farmers who use traditional irrigated land is
2,855 Kg/Ha/MT able to generate lowland rice farmers'
income of Rp. 9.022,009Ha/MT. Where the results obtained
in the form of production and income are very significant
differences between rice farming on traditional irrigated
land and rainfed land.
The states that subak is a traditional organization
that is able to manage irrigation water from empelan, which
is a building that draws water from the river which was built
by subak independently, to its rice fields. In subak the land
area (X1), labor (X2), pesticides (X3), fertilizer (X4), and
seeds (X5) have a simultaneous effect on rice farming
income in subak irrigation. The role of Subak in Paddy

The first layer is sample farmers with good
irrigation conditions with a sample of 60 families and the
second layer is sample farmers with poor irrigation
conditions, so the total sample size from both layers is 120
samples of traditional irrigated rice farmers.
The data obtained in the field will be compiled in
tabulated form then analyzed mathematically and explained
descriptively. Qualitative analysis using tabulation and
quantitative. The analysis used to answer based on the
problems and objectives of this study is to use multiple
linear regression analysis with the help of a computer
application SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science). In
the first analysis that will be used to determine the form of
traditional irrigation management in this study, namely by
measuring using a simple tabulation with Microsoft Excel
application and the measurement results will be described
descriptively. To answer the first hypothesis, namely the
growth of rice in technically irrigated rice fields is higher
than rainfed and tidal-fed rice fields. This happens because
the harvesting intensity (IPm) of rice also affects the
production of rice produced. The HDI of rice is strongly
influenced by the existence of irrigation which functions to
regulate the availability of water supply for rice plants.
In Improving Irrigation Network Performance
Through the Application of Appropriate and Consistent
Management in Ciramajaya Irrigation Areas concluded that
the selection of appropriate and consistent alternative
irrigation operational management includes procedures for
determining water allocation, methods of water allocation to
tertiary networks, methods of water distribution on the main
network and the most appropriate flow control system is
applied, so that it is expected to improve the performance of
the irrigation network system that has been built, if not/not
in accordance with how it should be implemented so that its
performance can be improved.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW
This research will be conducted in South Sumatra
by taking samples in two different locations, namely the first
location in the city of Pagaralam and the second location in
Lahat Regency. From each location, two villages will be
taken as research samples later. For the Pagaralam city area,
the research sites are Lubuk Buntak village and Pelang
Kenidai village, while for the Lahat district the research
location is Pagaruyung village and Jenti'an village. The
location determination was carried out purposively with the
consideration that the two villages in each location were the
rice-producing areas of the highest irrigated rice fields for
the area. Data collection was carried out in September 2019.
In this study, sampling of respondent farmers was carried
out in two stages. The first stage, carried out purvosively
with the consideration that the area or village that will be the
location of the study has a rice farm that utilizes traditional
irrigation canals as the main water source in carrying out the
farming. From these requirements, four different locations
were chosen in two district cities in South Sumatra, namely
the first location in Pagaralam City and the second location
in Lahat Regency.

model, binary logit, to overcome quantitative variables. The
general form of the logit model is as follows:
K = In = α + β1X1 + β2X2 + ……..+ βnX2n + e
In this study, a binary value is assigned to the dependent
variable, namely the opportunity for farmers to manage
existing traditional irrigation. The alleged model of the
factors that influence traditional irrigation management can
be formulated as follows:
