Abstract

This study aimed to estimate the carrying capacity of Paal Beach tourist sites, East Likupang, one of the main tourist attractions in the Likupang Special Economic Zone (SEZ). This research was conducted from March to November 2021. The data used were primary data and secondary data. Primary data were collected at tourist sites, both from visitors and the Paal Beach management. Secondary data were obtained from tourism site managers and related agencies such as  Statistics Indonesia Office, Tourism Office, and also gathered from various available documents. The results showed that the Physical Carrying Capacity (PCC) for Paal Beach was 2654 visitors per day, while the Real Carrying Capacity (RCC) and Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC) had the same value, which were 1843 visitors per day. The data showed that the number of visitors on weekdays, weekends and national holidays was still below the PCC. However, there was an ocassion where the number of visitors on a national holiday exceeded the RCC and the ECC.

Abstract

Cayenne pepper and tomato are important horticultural crops for smallholder farmers in North Sulawesi, Indonesia, yet their role within horizontally diversified farming systems is not well documented. This study analyses horizontal crop diversification as a strategy for strengthening household economies in Taraitak Satu Village, North Langowan District, Minahasa Regency. An exploratory case-study design was used, combining descriptive quantitative and qualitative approaches. Primary data were collected through structured interviews with ten purposively selected farmers who simultaneously cultivated cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) on the same land during one production season. Information on land area, input use, production costs, yields, prices, revenues and capital sources was used to construct farm budgets for the diversified system. The results show that most farmers operate on less than 0.5 ha, yet the combined cayenne–tomato system generates relatively high net farm income. Total production cost for the ten farmers amounted to IDR 120,428,163, while total revenue reached IDR 905,842,000, resulting in a total net income of IDR 785,413,837. Individual net incomes ranged from IDR 21,965,000 to IDR 195,007,000 per season, with an average of about IDR 78.5 million per farmer. Some farmers relied on formal bank credit to finance input purchases and labour, reflecting the link between diversification and access to capital. The findings suggest that horizontal diversification with cayenne pepper and tomato can provide substantial income under favourable conditions, although the small sample size and single-season data mean that results should be interpreted as indicative rather than generalisable. Keywords: horizontal diversification; cayenne pepper; tomato; farm income; smallholder farmers.
