Summary:Abstract The availability of agricultural land, especially rice fields, which covers an area of 8.08 million hectares has not been able to meet Indonesia’s food needs. The low rice productivity (around 3.5 - 4.5 tonnes/ha) in Riau Province are strategic issues today and in the future. Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Research and Development (IAARD)has produced various technological innovations that able to increase rice productivity, one of them is Jarwo Super technology. This study aimed to examine the application of jarwo super technology to increase rice productivity and support food self-sufficiency in Riau Province. This research was conducted through literature studies and field surveys. The method of planting legowo row has the opportunity to increase grain yield, because in addition to the higher population than the tile planting method, the orientation of the crop is also better in the use of solar radiation. In addition, the increase in grain yield will be more significant by choosing adaptive varieties. The application of super jarwo technology innovation, the productivity of rice plants reached 5.73 tonnes/ha higher than the tile method of 5.25 tonnes/ha of harvested dry grain.
