Abstract

The farmers in Indonesia have not maximally taken advantage of the
existence of rice husk; therefore the huge number of the husk becomes
disturbing waste, which spoils environment. The waste of rice husk is
potentially capable of improving the farmers’ economy amidst the people’s
lack of knowledge about its potential to commercially produce charcoal
briquettes from it, make it a plant growing medium, and change it into
manure. This research aims at knowing if the training of recycling waste of
rice husk can improve the farmers’ entrepreneurship motivation. The subjects
of the research were farmers in groups at Bimomartani village, Ngemplak
district, Sleman regency. They were 60 participants divided into experintal
and control groups. The planned experiment used untreated control group
design with dependent pretest and posttest samples. The paired sample t-test
and independent sample t-test were used as the techniques of analysis in this
research. The result of t-test on paired sample t-test for the experimental
group resulted in the value of t = -6.659 with p = 0.000 (p<0.01), which
means there was a significant difference of entrepreneurship motivation
before and after the training of recycling rice husk. The analysis for
Independent sample t-test resulted in the value of t = 7.411 with p = 0.000
(p<0.01), which means there was a significant difference of entrepreneurship
motivation between experimental and control groups. It can be concluded
that the training of recycling waste of rice husk was effective in improving
the farmers’ entrepreneurship motivation.
