Abstract

This research aims to investigate technology acceptance behavior that seeks to understand the formation of attitudes, intentions, and behavior in accepting information system technology. This research brings something new to expand the theory of technology acceptance, namely the use of an integrated planting calendar information system for voluntary users and at the post-adoption stage. The research objectives are as follows: 1) identify the behavior of agricultural instructors in implementing Integrated Katam SI in Gorontalo Province, 2) describe the intentions of agricultural instructors in implementing the Integrated Katam SI program, 3) analyze the influence of instructors' attitudes, self-efficacy, motivation, perceived usefulness, convenience perceived, and technological anxiety toward agricultural instructors' intentions in implementing Integrated Katam SI, 4) analyze the influence of subjective norms, facilitating conditions, and training on agricultural instructors' intentions in implementing Integrated Katam SI, and 5) formulate a model for implementing Integrated Katam SI based on the intentions of sustainable agriculture instructors. This research was conducted in Gorontalo Province using survey and in-depth interview methods. The research population was ASN and THL-TBPP agricultural instructors in 5 districts/cities in Gorontalo Province, totaling 440 people. The research sample comprised 150 respondents. The number of samples was determined using proportional random sampling by taking subjects from each extension work area determined to be balanced with the number of subjects in each area. The behavior of agricultural instructors in using the Integrated Katam SI shows good knowledge by knowing the service for ± 3 years, and the service that is often used is the estimation of the time and area for planting rice and secondary crops. Extension agents in planning and conducting actual actions show inconsistency, which is caused by the dissatisfaction of some extension agents with the information from SI Katam Terpadu. Agricultural instructors’ intentions are influenced by the instructor’s attitude toward technology, ease of use, and training that supports increasing the instructor’s capacity toward technology.
