Abstract

Abstract This community service program aimed to enhance the capacity of cassava farming communities in Surabaya Baru, Central Lampung, through vocational education focused on the development of value-added cassava-based products. Cassava, a staple crop in the region, has long been sold primarily in raw form, resulting in limited income and low market competitiveness for farmers. The implemented program utilized a participatory and hands-on training model covering technical skills in cassava processing (e.g., into mocaf flour, chips, cakes, and other innovative foods), food safety, business management, and digital marketing strategies. As a result, participants successfully produced a range of processed cassava products that met hygiene and packaging standards, significantly increasing their monthly income from IDR 3,500,000 to IDR 6,000,000. Moreover, the training fostered entrepreneurial mindsets and improved community solidarity, particularly among women. Challenges included limited access to modern processing equipment and the need for consistent product quality and marketing support. Nevertheless, this initiative demonstrated the transformative potential of vocational education in empowering rural communities through local agro-processing innovations, contributing to economic development, food security, and sustainable agribusiness practices.

Abstract

farmer productivity within the context of the 2021 vocational agribusiness education program in Labuhan Ratu. The research employs a quantitative approach using explanatory research to explain causal relationships between variables through inferential statistical analysis. A total of 100 respondents were selected using the Slovin formula, and data were collected through a structured questionnaire. Data analysis included validity and reliability tests, t-test, and R² test using the Smart PLS software. The results show that agricultural technology training has a positive and significant effect on increasing farmer productivity, with a T-statistic value of 16.109 and a P-value of 0.000. These findings indicate that the higher the quality and intensity of training received, the greater the resulting agricultural productivity. The training not only enhances technical knowledge but also transforms behavior and improves farmers' skills in adopting new technologies. Therefore, vocational agribusiness education plays a strategic role as a center for developing agricultural human resources that are responsive to technological advancements and the challenges of modern agriculture.

Abstract

Background: Contract farming has been widely recognized as a mechanism for improving smallholder farmers’ productivity, market access, and income stability. However, existing studies generally examine Contract Farming, Creating Shared Value (CSV), and Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) separately, resulting in limited understanding of how these approaches can be integrated within sustainable agribusiness partnerships. This study analyzes the implementation of community empowerment in Cavendish banana agribusiness through a cooperative-based contract farming model integrating CSV and ABCD principles. Method: A mixed method case study approach was employed involving 458 farmers affiliated with the Bina Sejahtera Cooperative in Pesawaran Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected through structured interviews, focus group discussions, field observations, and institutional documentation. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive comparative analysis based on before–after program indicators, while qualitative data were examined through thematic analysis to explore empowerment processes, partnership dynamics, and institutional development. Findings: The results indicate that the integration of CSV and ABCD within the contract farming system generated significant socio-economic and institutional benefits. Farmer productivity increased from 18–20 to 22–24 tons/ha/year (+15–20%), while seasonal income rose from IDR 18–22 million to IDR 23–28 million (+20–25%). Market access expanded from local traders to cooperative-based and export-oriented channels, reducing dependence on intermediaries and improving price stability. In addition, cooperative participation increased from 55% to 80% of active members, while adoption of Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) improved from 40% to 715%. Conclusion: These outcomes demonstrate enhanced farmer capacity, stronger institutional performance, and improved agribusiness sustainability. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study proposes an integrative framework that combines CSV and ABCD within a cooperative-based contract farming system. The model demonstrates how market-oriented value creation and asset-based community empowerment can be simultaneously implemented to generate measurable economic, social, and institutional impacts, offering a replicable approach for inclusive and sustainable agribusiness development.
