Abstract

The role of young farmers in the paddy agriculture sector is vital for ensuring the sustainability and progression of agricultural activities. Therefore, it is crucial that young farmers receive attention from various parties to gain access to government aid for paddy agriculture. This study aims to address three objectives: identifying the challenges young farmers face in accessing government programs and aid for paddy agriculture, understanding the importance of accessibility to these programs and aid for young farmers, and exploring strategies to enhance accessibility. For this study, a qualitative approach was adopted, and 15 respondents were interviewed individually. The findings reveal that the main issue and challenge faced by young farmers is their lack of preparedness to access government aid for paddy agriculture. The study also explores the importance of government aid for young farmers through the insights gathered during the interviews. Five key benefits of government paddy agriculture aid for young farmers were identified: reducing operational costs, increasing revenue, lightening the workload, improving fertilizing and harvesting techniques, and increasing paddy farming yields. Finally, the study proposes practices to enhance accessibility for young farmers, which include empowering their skills and abilities, strengthening public institutions, and improving infrastructure facilities. These findings can serve as a benchmark for future endeavors and guide interested parties in their efforts to support young farmers.

Abstract

This study aims to unravel the paradox of perceptions and knowledge of the flood victims towards the causes of the disaster in the context of internal and external. Internal context comprises of a comparison of perceptions and knowledge based on individual characteristics (age, gender, education and income). Whereas, the external context includes the factors of the awareness of the victims towards the amount of rainfall, the impact of land use changes as well as the negligence of the responsible parties. The main objective of this study is to determine the differences of perception and knowledge of December 2014 flood victims in Kelantan towards the factors that lead to the flood. This disaster had resulted in huge amount of money lost as well as traumatize the victims in which can be felt to this day. Since that incident, there were various points of view and different perceptions in finding the cause of the disaster occurred. Besides that, the study found that the level of perception and knowledge as to the cause of the disaster is different in the context of the internal (individual characteristics). This difference has a significant influence on the awareness of the causes of the floods that occurred in the external context. Significant relationships at the level of p<0.05 has existed between perception and knowledge of the causes of the disaster victims affected by environmental changes in the last 10 years. This indicates that although the victim is aware of the physical environment changes happening around them, but all that is seen is not a major contributing factor to the cause of the floods in Kelantan in 2014.
