Abstract: The success of lowland rice cultivation is supported by the application of appropriate cultivation technology. The application of this technology is important to ensure optimal production achievement. The increasing population of Indonesia every year increases the demand for rice. To meet this need, the rice cultivation techniques applied by farmers need to be considered. Production factors are related to the application of cultivation techniques, including variety selection, fertilization, irrigation, and control of plant pests, all of which affect the results of lowland rice production. The research was conducted through a survey, by collecting data from farmer groups who own rice fields in South Bolaang Mongondow Regency, which includes Bolaang Uki District, Popodu and Salongo Villages and Pinolosian District, Kombot Village. The application of agricultural technology in South Bolaang Mongondow Regency is still not optimal, mainly due to the financial limitations of farmers. In general, 40% of farmers achieve production of 2-2.5 tons/ha and this shows that increasing access to technology and financial support is very important to increase productivity among farmers
