The process of cultivation of agriculture mainly rice cultivation is very important for Indonesia because the country life of the resulting rice became one of the products is very important. Rice is the staple food of the people of indonesia so that the rice becomes the main product in nine staples.
Many factors can affect the process of improving the productivity and quality of rice production. Some very important factor is the use of seeds, fertilization is right on target, proper watering, pest control diseases, and others. The population numbers of plants per hectare are also not as important in increasing productivity and the quality of the rice. One way to optimize the plant population by sunlight that can be used by rice plant is to organize the system of his planting. One of the famous system is a system of Planting Rows Legowo (Jarwo).
"Legowo" taken from the Java language which is derived from the word "Lego" meaning "broad and Dowo" meaning long. The main objective of the rice Cropping system with Parallel Legowo i.e. increase plant population by setting up trunks and manipulate the location of the plant which seems to be on the edge of the rice plant (plant edge) or as if the plant more many are on the edge. There are several system planting rows legowo i.e. Jarwo 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1 Jarwo Jarwo.
Jajar Legowo 2:1
Setiap dua baris diselingi satu baris yang kosong dengan lebar dua kali jarak tanam, dan pada jarak tanam dalam baris yang memanjang di perpendek menjadi setengah jarak tanam dalam barisannya.Rows 3:1 Legowo
Each of the three lines of rice plant at the break up with one blank line with width twice the distance of the planting, and for a distance of planting rice plants into into half trunks in its sequenceRows 4:1 Legowo
each of the four lines of rice plant interspersed with one blank line with width twice the distance of the planting, and for a distance of planting rice plants into into half trunks in its sequence
Judging from the image cropping of rice with System Rows Legowo then can be seen an improvement of rice plant grown in a general formula, an increase in the number of population of rice plant can be seen with the formula 100% X 1: (1 + the number of legowo)
As An Example:
If the 2:1 Legowo population that is 100% X 1: (1 + 2) = 33.3%
If the 3:1 Legowo population that is 100% X 1: (1 + 3) = 25%
If the 4:1 Legowo population that is 100% X 1: (1 + 4) = 20%
If the 5:1 Legowo population that is 100% X 1: (1 + 5) = 16.7%

Its function is to facilitate the process of planting and when to make the right the planting distance. There are two types or type caplakan, namely:
