Abstract

This study looks at how digital entrepreneurship is being used by small enterprises in the agriculture industry to empower them. It focusses on how this is affecting market access, production efficiency, and bolstering competitiveness. The advent of digital transformation has presented small enterprises with novel prospects to surmount customary constraints, including restricted availability of markets, finance, and technology. This research employs a qualitative methodology and a case study approach to investigate how small agricultural firms might use digital technologies, like e-commerce platforms and the Internet of Things (IoT), to increase market access and productivity. In-depth interviews with small business owners, technology suppliers, and other stakeholders were used to gather data. Direct observation and document analysis were also used. The results of this study show that small enterprises' operational efficiency and revenue are greatly increased when digital entrepreneurship is implemented. Collaboration with a range of stakeholders, including the government and academic institutions, and sufficient digital literacy have shown to be crucial for the effective execution of this plan. This study also emphasises how crucial it is to create both domestic and global business networks in an effort to increase market penetration and boost the competitiveness of small enterprises in the agriculture industry. In order to increase the sustainability and competitiveness of small enterprises in the agriculture sector, this study makes recommendations based on its results for policy makers and industry participants to assist the widespread adoption of digital entrepreneurship.

Abstract

This study develops an econometric model to predict corporate financial performance. The goal is to improve the accuracy of predictions by analysing relevant economic and financial variables. The model combines statistical and econometric analysis to identify significant input variables such as asset turnover, firm size, capital structure, and liquidity. The study also highlights the importance of external factors, such as environmental policies and knowledge management, that affect corporate financial performance. Using ARIMA and VAR models, the study shows that selecting the correct parameters, such as the number of lags, is critical to improving prediction accuracy. The developed model is evaluated based on RMSE, MAD, and MAPE metrics, which show that the econometric model offers more accurate predictions than the classical statistical model. These results contribute significantly to understanding corporate financial performance dynamics and can be a reliable tool in strategic decision-making across various industry sectors.

Abstract

This Community Service program was conducted in Malawele Village, Aimas District, Sorong Regency, to empower farmers’ economic capacity through improvements in farming productivity, market integration, and strengthening of farmer group institutions. The target group of the activity was the Tunas Baru Farmer Group, whose members cultivate horticultural crops, particularly mustard greens and long beans. The program was implemented using a participatory and applicative approach, placing farmers as active subjects in all stages of the activity, including problem identification, counseling, technical training, marketing assistance, and institutional strengthening. The results of the program indicate an improvement in farmers’ knowledge and skills related to cultivation techniques, increased awareness of the importance of market access and collective marketing, and enhanced cooperation and participation within the farmer group. Furthermore, the strengthening of the Tunas Baru Farmer Group contributed to its role as a forum for joint decision-making and collective farm business planning. Overall, the Community Service activity demonstrated positive initial impacts on farmer economic empowerment and provided a foundation for sustainable horticulture-based local economic development in Malawele Village.

Abstract

Introduction: Poverty and income inequality remain fundamental challenges in Indonesia's regional economic development, where despite declining absolute poverty rates during decentralization, consumption inequality has significantly increased, offsetting the positive impacts of consumption growth on poverty reduction. Income inequality demonstrates a positive and substantial impact on poverty prevalence, while unemployment, human development, fiscal transfers, and employment structure significantly influence these phenomena through complex transmission mechanisms.This study analyzes the determinants of poverty and income inequality in regional economic development contexts, examines the mediating role of income inequality in the relationship between macroeconomic determinants and poverty, and identifies heterogeneous determinant patterns across regions with different geographical and structural economic characteristics.Method: This quantitative explanatory research employs balanced panel data from 34 districts/cities during 2019-2023 (170 observations), utilizing Fixed Effect Model and Random Effect Model regression analysis with Generalized Method of Moments system estimation, mediation analysis using Baron and Kenny method, and heterogeneity analysis across urbanized, transitional, and rural regions.Results: Income inequality emerges as the strongest determinant of poverty (β = 18.45, p < 0.01), followed by the open unemployment rate, the Human Development Index, and economic growth. The informal employment structure constitutes the strongest predictor of income inequality (β = 0.0034, p < 0.01). Income inequality serves as a partial mediation, with a 32% mediation proportion for the employment structure pathway and 24% for the economic growth pathway. Substantial heterogeneity exists across regional typologies, where HDI becomes critical in urbanized areas while income redistribution proves more crucial in rural regions.Conclusion: Integrated development policies encompassing the structural transformation of informal employment, human resource investment strengthening, and the implementation of inclusive growth with differentiated approaches based on regional typologies are recommended to reduce poverty and inequality effectively.
