The respondents for the research consisted of 83 harvest labours were selected from 3 afdellings proporsionally using simple random sampling method. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s Rank-Order correlation coefficient and multiple linear regressions. Harvest labours’ age, net income from SISS, the number of dependency family, empathi, and dogmatism were significantly correlated with the labours’ motivation to join the program of SISS. The average of harvest labours’ monthly net income from SISS was Rp. 1.23 million and its contribution to family income was 98.71 percents. While the return rate of credit was only 43.27 percent and it was significantly influenced by the harvest labours’ education and the total of credit.
