Abstract

Women play a strategic role in Indonesia’s agricultural sector; however, their contribution to productivity and economic development remains constrained by limited access to land, capital, information, and technology. Advances in digital technology offer significant opportunities to improve production efficiency, expand market access, and strengthen the economic empowerment of women farmers. Nevertheless, empirical and conceptual studies that specifically examine the adoption of digital technology by women farmers in Indonesia are still limited and fragmented. This study aims to comprehensively review the types of digital technologies adopted by women farmers in Indonesia, the factors influencing such adoption, and its impacts on productivity, income, and welfare. The study employs a qualitative approach through a systematic literature review of 70 reputable scientific articles published between 2011 and 2023, analyzed using content analysis techniques. The findings indicate that the use of mobile phones, digital extension services, e-commerce platforms, and smart agricultural technologies contributes positively to reducing information asymmetry, improving production efficiency, expanding market access, and strengthening the role of women farmers in decision-making. However, the adoption of digital technology remains constrained by low digital literacy, limited infrastructure, restricted access to capital, and gender-based social norms. The implications of this review underscore the importance of gender-responsive digital inclusion policies to promote rural economic growth, food security, and sustainable agricultural development.

Abstract

Abstract The agricultural sector plays a strategic role in supporting food security and sustainable economic development. However, this sector faces serious challenges in labor regeneration due to the low interest of younger generations in participating. The decline in youth involvement has the potential to threaten the sustainability of food production as well as the economic stability of rural areas. Although the issue of farmer regeneration has been widely discussed, in-depth studies examining youth perceptions of the agricultural sector at the local level remain relatively limited. This study aims to analyze youth perceptions of the agricultural sector in Karanganyar Regency and to examine the role of stakeholders in supporting the regeneration of the agricultural workforce. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study method, using in-depth interviews with ten young people from both farming and non-farming families. Data were analyzed using content analysis techniques with source triangulation. The findings indicate that negative perceptions—such as the view that agriculture is synonymous with physically demanding work, high risk, and limited economic prospects—are the main factors contributing to low youth interest. However, the adoption of modern agricultural technologies, agribusiness-based education, and policy support have been shown to increase the attractiveness of the sector to younger generations. These findings highlight the importance of policies oriented toward agricultural modernization, the strengthening of technology-based education, and the renewal of the agricultural sector’s image to accelerate the regeneration of young farmers.
