Abstract

Muna area has the potential for corn production. This study aims to analyze the feasibility and sustainability of corn commodities in the Muna area.

Data obtained by focus group discussion with the World Cafe format. Through multidimensional scaling, data analysis was performed by the multi-criteria decision-making and the modified rapid appraisal for fisheries ordinance technique in RAP_CROPS.

The feasibility analysis shows that the corn commodity fulfills the following criteria: (i) A primary commodity in the Muna area; (ii) Suitable land for corn development; (iii) Feasible financial; (iv) Socio-culturally feasible, (v) policy support. The results showed that the economic and institutional dimensions have enough sustainable status, the ecological size has a continuous category and the technological and socio-cultural dimensions have less sustainable.
