Abstract

Various forms of farming patterns was exist today. The objective of this study was to determine the pattern intercropping systems done by a farmer based on the local wisdom in East Java. The data was obtained from the survey in several districts of East Java province such as Bangkalan, Sampang, Pamekasan, Sumenep, Lamongan, Kediri, Sidoarjo, Gresik, and Probolinggo district. The data was grouped according to the combined of plant species. The results showed the farmers cultivated amount of 28 plant species with 80 combinations of model cropping systems. Furthermore, the data give the information amount of 31 percent (25 combination) was similar combination among farmers. On the other hand, the amount of 69 percent (55 combination) was different among farmers.
