Abstract

The traditional Moke beverage industry in Kokowahor Village, Kangae District, Sikka Regency, is part of the local culture and a source of community income. This study aims to analyze the location of the Moke industry based on Alfred Weber's industrial location theory, focusing on transportation and labor cost efficiency. The method used is a quantitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, documentation, and field studies. Data were analyzed using a locational triangle approach to determine the optimal location of the industry. The results show that most Moke industries are located close to raw material sources and markets, thus reducing transportation costs. In addition, the workforce used comes from families or the surrounding community, so labor costs are relatively low. These findings are in line with Weber's principle that industrial location is determined by cost minimization. This research is expected to serve as a reference in the development of local industries sustainably and strengthen the study of economic geography through the application of location theory in the context of traditional industries.

Abstract

Efficiency in the utilization of agricultural land can affect population growth through food availability and reduce pressure on natural resources. The objectives of the research are (1) To analyze the factors affecting the efficiency of agricultural land use in Golo Manting Village, (2) To identify appropriate strategies to improve land quality. The research method used is a quantitative method with multiple regression analysis. The results of the study indicate that (1) The efficiency of agricultural land use in Golo Manting Village is influenced by various factors, but statistical tests show that land area, food crop production, and agricultural technology do not have a simultaneous effect. This indicates that other factors such as irrigation quality, type of fertilizer, planting patterns, and farmers' knowledge and skills are more dominant in determining the level of land efficiency (2) the use of modern agricultural technology effective land management can increase food crop production. (3) Agricultural intensification through the use of superior seeds, proper land management, and good fertilization can improve food crop production and the efficiency of agricultural land utilization. This research concludes that effective land management and the use of modern agricultural technology can enhance the efficiency of agricultural land use and food crop production in Golo Manting Village.
