Peasant Women's Time Allocation in the Beef Cattle Gaduhan Partnership, Baluran National Park

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the allocation of women's working time in a beef cattle business with a profit-sharing system and to analyze the influence of socio-economic factors on peasant women's working time in a profit-sharing beef cattle business in Sidomulyo Hamlet, Sumberwaru Village, Baluran National Park. The study was conducted in July 2022. The respondents in this study were married female cattle farmers in Dusun Sidomulyo village. The survey techniques and quota sampling were used to select 50 peasant women respondents for the study. Data analysis used a regression test with socio-economic factors as X variables (age, education level, farming experience, employment status, number of family dependents, income level, number of livestock, land area, livestock rearing pattern, cattle owner profile, and the women's role) and peasant women's working time as a Y variable. The results showed that all factors of production simultaneously had a significant effect on the women's working time. Meanwhile, the number of cattle and the role of women both had an impact on women's working hours. This research shows that the research variables influence 52.7% of women's working time.
