Abstract

The agricultural sector contributes almost half of the Indonesian economy. Based on data from BPS in 2019-2020, this sector provides food for more than 270 million people and dominates the source of income in Indonesia by 33.4 million (27.33%). Unfortunately, the high opportunity and prospects are accompanied by a lack of enthusiasm among the younger generation to pursue agricultural careers, resulting in a decline in regeneration. Some influential factors included: (1) the perception that the agricultural sector is less promising in the future, (2) the lack of prestige of relatively low salaries, and (3) the existence and influence of social strata in the community. The current study aimed to investigate students' perceptions and interests, particularly those of agricultural students, concerning their career choices and corroborate the phenomena of the young generation's falling interest in agricultural careers. The participants were 100 agriculture students from the Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Brawijaya (FP UB). The study implemented a quantitative approach with a survey method. The data were analyzed using Tableau. The results showed that there were two dominant factors, external and internal, that influenced the career choices of agriculture students. Additionally, the responses from the students based on gender (male and female) were also different. The findings of this study provide a broader view on how to improve students' interest in agricultural careers through external and internal assistance, namely motivation and practical experiences during the academic year.

Abstract

Energy drinks containing caffeine, taurine, and other vitamins and minerals are popular among Indonesians, especially students, for their claimed benefits of increased energy, concentration, and alertness. The hype of assignments acquired by a student made them the habit of staying awake at night and boosting their energy during exams and assignments, which exacerbated that potential consumption. However, excessive and continuous consumption of these drinks can lead to harmful effects, such as kidney disorders. Descriptive quantitative methods were used to analyze data obtained by 140 agriculture students at Brawijaya University through an online questionnaire by G-Form. The relationship was tested using Chi-Square and SPSS software. The result shows that the level of energy drink consumption among students is relatively low, with a proportion of 22.14% from 140 respondents. A Chi-square test was performed to analyze the relationship between consumption level and gender with a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant difference between consumption level and gender. Respondents' perceptions of energy drinks tend to be evenly distributed, as the proportions are almost equal. The majority of respondents have a low level of knowledge regarding energy drinks. This is evidenced by the proportion of respondents with a low level of expertise, which is 80%. The knowledge level analysis about consumption level yielded a p-value of 0.722, indicating no significant difference. When reclassified based on gender, it shows a p-value of 0.002 for low knowledge level and a p-value of 0.046 for high knowledge level, which means gender is not a moderate variable.
