Since the nineteenth century, Dutch colonial government had conducted plantation effort and sugar industry through renting land. The land is located in the village areas on which the heads of villages had rights to manage. This condition had begun to change since the program of land reform had been accepted in 1912 (the beginning of the nineteenth century); this was based on the regulation that the farmers did not only do duties but they they had to be given their rights. This idea had been emplementted in 1918 when each farmer had his individual rights which could be inherited to the others for being cultivated. The individual rights given the farmers in Yogyakarta including Bantul as the result of the change in law gave insurance for the farmers to use the land for their whole life; whereas, the possibility to inherit the land gave economic insurance for all their next generations. Agriculture must have a close relationship to irrigation. The irrigation in the district of Bantul which was very simple in the previous time had been replaced with the modern one since Ethic Politics had been established and sugar industry had been developed in the district of Bantul.
Key words: plantation, agriculture, and irrigation
