Result showed that the agronomy performance of superior rice varieties cultivated with ICM technology were tend to equal to each other. Utilization of superior rice varieties with ICM technology implementation can increase rice productivity up to 1.80 ton/ha compared to farmer’s habits mainly the habit of Ciherang uses.
