ABSTRACT
Indonesia as a country with increasing population growyh has resulted in the increasing need for food consumption. Various circles of society need fuel oil, including farmers who need fuel oil in the form of diesel fuelwhich is used as fuel for the power tiller to plow the land that will be cultivated. This study aims to determine the performance of the powertiller and the efficient use of fuel using three different types of fuel, namely biodiesel, pertamina dex, and biosolar. The testing were carried out by performing soil processing performance using the moldboard plow and land leveler implement. From the testing, the best performance was obtained using Pertmina dex fuel with moldboard plow implement by KKa value of 0.055 ha/hour and 0.166 ha/hour for the land leveler implement. Biodiesel fuels were the efficient one. It based on the testing that used the moldboard plow implement by FC value of 0.908 L/hr, and land leveler implement by FC value of 1.113 L/hr of.


Keywords: biodiesel, biosolar, pertamina dex, the powertiller.
