Abstract

Purpose: to analyze the dynamics and trends of the Food Security Index (FSI) across six provinces in Sulawesi during 2019–2025 and to interpret the observed variations from a regional agro-economic perspective. Method: this study employed a quantitative approach using secondary data on the Food Security Index (FSI) for six provinces in Sulawesi during 2019–2025, obtained from the National Food Agency. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis to classify FSI levels and trend analysis to identify annual changes in food security conditions. Findings: food security across the six provinces in Sulawesi fluctuated during 2019–2025, with a notable decline in 2025. North Sulawesi, Gorontalo, Central Sulawesi, West Sulawesi, Southeast Sulawesi, and South Sulawesi all experienced declines in FSI in 2025, although their overall food-security levels remained within the “Secure” or “Highly Secure” categories. These findings indicate that regional food security is not determined solely by food production but is also associated with economic access, distribution, purchasing power, and the resilience of regional food systems. Implications: food-security policies in Sulawesi should integrate production, distribution, market access, purchasing power, and food utilization through region-specific strategies. Originality: lies in interpreting Food Security Index dynamics across six Sulawesi provinces through an integrated regional agro-economic perspective, linking temporal changes in food security with production, access, distribution, and household economic conditions.

Abstract

Purpose: to analyze cayenne pepper price volatility, market integration and price transmission, and marketing efficiency, and to examine their implications for farmer income risk in Gorontalo Province's cayenne pepper agribusiness. Method: this study used a narrative literature review of scientific publications and analyzed them thematically around price volatility, market integration, marketing efficiency, farmer income risk, and agribusiness development. Findings: cayenne pepper prices in Gorontalo are highly volatile, while marketing efficiency varies across supply-chain actors. Although markets are relatively integrated, price transmission is not always complete or symmetrical. These conditions increase farmers' exposure to price, production, and marketing risks, potentially resulting in unstable farm income. Implications: Gorontalo's cayenne pepper agribusiness requires integrated policies focusing on price stabilization, transparent market information, stronger farmer institutions, efficient marketing channels, and improved post-harvest management to reduce farmer income risk and strengthen agribusiness resilience. Originality: lies in integrating price volatility, market integration, marketing efficiency, and farmer income risk into a single analytical framework for the cayenne pepper agribusiness in Gorontalo Province.
