Abstract

Most rural inhabitants rely on their livelihoods in the agricultural sector. One of the success factors of farming is the availability of water for agriculture. Generally, water for agricultural irrigation in Bengawan Solo river basin is managed by HIPPA-Himpunan Petani Pemakai Air or Water User Association with pompanisation. However, there are HIPPA who cannot manage irrigation in agriculture due to limited capital. Therefore, the water management in this village is taken on by businessmen. One of the successful impacts of managing agricultural irrigation and farming in the village is the emergence of non-agricultural economic activities in rural areas. For that purpose, the research was conducted in 2017-2018 with a qualitative approach concerning the impact of an agricultural irrigation management system and rural non-farm activities. The result concluded that the impact of success in managing agricultural irrigation and farming is that it provides opportunities for non-farming activities in rural areas. Non-farm activities in rural areas are directly or indirectly related to agricultural activities.
