Abstract: The distribution of subsidized rice is expected to be slightly helped by the burden of daily life. But sometimes some things cause programs that were already well organized and planned to become off-target. So that, the selection process for receiving prosperous rice assistance in Indonesia, especially in the Palangkaraya region of Central Kalimantan can be on target and wise, a decision support system is needed by using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method and TOPSIS. Research utilizing the SAW method can be used in determining decisions for scholarship recipients as did Eniyati. While the TOPSIS method in research conducted by Lestari is able to solve multi-dimensional problems in the case study of recruiting new employees. The results of the research conducted obtained the results of the decision of the two methods used. The results obtained from the data used are simulation data where the SAW method produces Ismadi in the first order of literary recipients who are entitled to the final value of the alternative, V9 = 0.95. While the TOPSIS method produces different literary recipients in the first order, namely Syarifah Hj. The relative closeness to the recipient of Syarif Hj is C3 = 0.7483. The results of both methods, if analyzed with the criteria/rating of importance used, the TOPSIS results are much closer to the decision that can be taken, because C3 is in first place with a value of 0.7483 and income criteria = 450,000, LR = 4, JT = 1, age = 81 and education = not elementary school. While the SAW results that produce V9 = 0,95 and income criteria = 5,500,000, LR = 14, JT = 4, age = 56 and education = Bachelor Degree.
