Abstract

Climate variability is increasing the vulnerability of small-scale fishing communities, especially in coastal areas that are highly dependent on fishery resources as their main source of livelihood. This study aims to identify fishermen's adaptation mechanisms, analyze their level of resilience, and determine the factors that influence the resilience of small-scale fishermen in two coastal villages in Central Tapanuli Regency, namely Teluk Roban Village and Pasar Sorkam Village. This study uses a quantitative survey approach with purposive sampling techniques on 70 fishing households consisting of 35 fishermen in Teluk Roban Village and 35 fishermen in Pasar Sorkam Village. The data were analyzed using statistical analysis to identify factors that influence the resilience of fishing households. The results of the study show that the resilience of fishing households in Teluk Roban Village is significantly influenced by education levels, access to financial institutions, livestock ownership, and the size of the fishing fleet. Meanwhile, the resilience of fishing households in Pasar Sorkam Village is more influenced by the age of the head of the family, non-fishing income and access to natural capital such as mangrove forests, rice fields, and mango and coconut trees. Despite differences in livelihoods, the level of resilience of fishing households in both villages does not show significant differences and is generally in the moderate category. These findings indicate that diversification of livelihoods, access to financial resources, and utilization of natural capital are important factors in strengthening the adaptive capacity of fishing households to climate variability.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are a major pillar of the Indonesian economy, yet they still face various fundamental problems, particularly limited financial literacy and access to fair and sustainable financing. Amidst the development of the sharia economy in Indonesia, the introduction of sharia economic principles is seen as a strategy for empowering MSMEs that has the potential to strengthen business sustainability. However, in practice, many MSMEs still have a limited understanding of the concept of sharia economics and have not yet implemented it optimally in business management. This study aims to examine in depth the introduction of sharia economics among MSMEs, specifically regarding the level of understanding, financial management practices, and access to and perceptions of sharia financing. The research method used is a qualitative approach with descriptive characteristics. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document searches, then analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that most MSMEs still have a simple understanding of sharia economics, have not implemented systematic financial records, and face obstacles in accessing sharia financing. However, MSMEs that received Islamic economic education and mentoring demonstrated positive changes in financial behavior, business transparency, and readiness to access Islamic financing. These findings confirm that the introduction of Islamic economics through ongoing education and mentoring plays a crucial role in strengthening the capacity and sustainability of MSMEs.

Abstract

A persistent issue in education, school dropout is currently a significant social issue. However, economic incentives often encourage young people to participate in family economic activities even when access to quality education remains limited. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how parents in Muara Nibung Village view the value of education for their children, what factors affect school attendance in fishing households, and how economic issues partially and concurrently affect the dropout rate of fishermen's children. This study included a sample of 89 individuals and employed a mixed methodology. The following are the study's findings: (1) Although a lack of education is not a justification for not sending their children to school, the majority of parents in Muara Nibung Village have a positive attitude toward education. They want the best education possible for their kids so they can grow up to be the best versions of themselves. The dropout rate is influenced by variables with partial significance values below 0.05, including parental education, parental occupation, child involvement in employment, children's low motivation and interest, and school atmosphere. The socio-economic circumstances of fishing families can have an impact on the dropout rate, as seen by the simultaneous influence of 92.6% on the dropout rate. The study concluded that the socio-economic circumstances of fishing households strongly influence young people's learning interests in Muara Nibung Village. Unfavorable socio-economic circumstances lead children and adolescents to learn less, thereby raising the region's school dropout rate

Abstract

Household food security among fishing communities is important to study because this group is vulnerable to income fluctuations and limited economic access. An analysis of socio-economic factors is needed to understand the causes and levels of food security among traditional fishers in coastal areas. Data were collected through a survey of 78 lift-net fishing households. The study shows that most lift-net fishing households in Muara Nibung Village are food insecure. Partially, income significantly affects the level of household food security, while simultaneously, factors such as income, expenditure, family size, and mother's education influence the food security level of fishing households.

Abstract

Komoditas kelapa sawit dan karet merupakan pilar ekonomi rumah tangga pedesaan Indonesia, namun dengan karakteristik pendapatan yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan pola konsumsi rumah tangga petani kedua komoditas tersebut dengan fokus pada stabilitas pendapatan dan prioritas pengeluaran. Metode mixed-methods diterapkan dengan survei kuantitatif pada 140 rumah tangga petani (52 sawit di Kampar, 88 karet di Tebo) dan wawancara mendalam. Stabilitas pendapatan diukur dengan Koefisien Variasi (CV), sedangkan perbedaan pola konsumsi dianalisis menggunakan Independent T-test dan faktor penentunya diidentifikasi melalui regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan disparitas yang signifikan. Petani sawit menikmati pendapatan lebih tinggi (Rp 7,6 juta/bulan) dan stabil (CV <20%), sehingga dapat mengalokasikan 25-30% pendapatan untuk pendidikan/kesehatan dan 20-25% untuk investasi. Sebaliknya, petani karet menghadapi volatilitas pendapatan ekstrem (CV >40%) dengan pendapatan rendah (Rp 983 rb/bulan), menyebabkan alokasi dominan untuk kebutuhan pokok (55-60%) dan tabungan darurat (20-25%) sebagai strategi bertahan hidup. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa stabilitas pendapatan yang bersumber dari karakteristik komoditas adalah determinan utama perbedaan pola konsumsi. Implikasi kebijakan dari temuan ini adalah perlunya intervensi yang berbeda, di mana petani karet memerlukan program stabilisasi pendapatan dan jaminan sosial, sementara petani sawit dapat difasilitasi untuk pengembangan kapasitas investasi dan kewirausahaan. Oil palm and rubber are pillars of Indonesia's rural economy, yet they are characterized by different income profiles. This study aims to analyze the differences in consumption patterns between farmer households of these two commodities, focusing on income stability and expenditure priorities. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a quantitative survey of 140 farmer households (52 oil palm in Kampar, 88 rubber in Tebo) with in-depth interviews. Income stability was measured using the Coefficient of Variation (CV), while differences in consumption patterns were analyzed using an Independent T-test, and their determining factors were identified through multiple linear regression. The results reveal significant disparities. Oil palm farmers earn a higher (Rp 7.6 million/month) and more stable income (CV <20%), enabling them to allocate 25-30% of their income to education and health, and 20-25% to investment. Conversely, rubber farmers face extreme income volatility (CV >40%) with a low income (Rp 983 thousand/month), leading to a dominant allocation of funds to basic needs (55-60%) and emergency savings (20-25%) as a survival strategy. The study concludes that income stability is the primary determinant of the differences in consumption patterns. The policy implication of these findings is the need for differentiated interventions, where rubber farmers require income stabilization programs and social safety nets, while oil palm farmers can be facilitated in investment capacity development and entrepreneurship.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the vulnerability of small-scale fishing households to food security, particularly amid their dependence on prohibited fishing gear such as trawl nets. Despite regulations prohibiting the use of such fishing gear, many fishermen still rely on it as their primary source of livelihood due to limited alternatives and minimal policy support. This study aims to identify the level of food security of fishing households using trawl nets and analyze the structure of their food and non-food expenditures. This research was conducted using a quantitative approach, and data was collected through a survey method using a questionnaire to predetermined respondents. The results show that 70% of fishing households are classified as food insecure, while only 30% are classified as food secure. Food insecure households have higher total expenditures, but a larger proportion is allocated to non-productive consumption such as cigarettes. Conversely, food secure households tend to prioritize spending on education and other long-term needs. These findings confirm that food security is not solely determined by income, but rather by how households manage and prioritize expenditures. Policies that support the transfer of fishing gear and improve financial and nutritional literacy are urgently needed to improve fishers' food security sustainably
