Abstract

Over the past three decades, a rapid increase in pesticide usage has played a central role in transforming the landscape of modern agriculture. The objective of this research is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of changes in pesticide usage from 1990 to 2020, emphasizing the complexity of global trends, environmental impacts, and pesticide trade dynamics. This study utilizes agri-environmental indicators and relies on the latest statistical data from FAOSTAT in 2022. The applied research method is a quantitative approach based on secondary data.The research findings indicate that global pesticide usage reached 2.7 million tons in 2020, with an average of 1.8 kg/ha. Although reaching a stable level, pesticide trade experienced a significant increase, particularly in the disinfectant category. Over the past three decades, there has been an approximately 50 percent increase in pesticide usage, especially in herbicides. Per capita analysis shows a relatively stable consumption rate, although there is an increase in pesticide usage per unit of agricultural land. Regional levels reveal significant disparities, with Asia as the largest contributor, Europe implementing strict policies, the Americas having the highest usage rates, Oceania experiencing low trade, and Africa applying low usage rates. Some countries, such as Saint Lucia, exhibit high pesticide application rates per unit of agricultural land, and this variation requires in-depth analysis to understand influencing factors. To mitigate negative impacts, international cooperation, the development of sustainable technologies, and a profound understanding of pesticide applications are necessary. Therefore, more effective and sustainable agricultural policies need to be designed to protect the environment and human health.

Abstract

This research delves into the implementation of social security programs, particularly focusing on tobacco farm workers in Jember regency, Indonesia. Despite the mandatory nature of the BPJS Ketenagakerjaan, many tobacco farm laborers remain uncovered, posing risks to their social and economic well-being. Utilizing a quantitative research methodology, the study employs questionnaires and statistical analysis to understand the factors influencing participation in the BPJS Employment program. Findings reveal that variables such as Program Urgency, Farmers' Knowledge, Program Benefits, Farmers' Expectations, and the Role of Local Government collectively explain 67.5% of tobacco farmers' participation. Notably, Program Urgency and Program Benefits significantly impact participation, highlighting the vital role of social security in providing financial assurance against job-related risks. Moreover, active involvement of the Local Government is essential in fostering farmers' interest and engagement in the program. These findings underscore the significance of social security programs for tobacco farm workers, emphasizing the need for government support and facilitation to enhance program participation and ensure the welfare of vulnerable laborers.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the decline in Indonesia's coffee exports and to formulate strategies to enhance these exports. Using a quantitative methodology, data from 1991 to 2021 were analyzed via regression analysis employing SPSS software. The independent variables considered included coffee production volume, harvested coffee land area, the GDP of the United States, and the exchange rate of the Indonesian Rupiah to the US Dollar. The results indicate that Indonesia's coffee production and harvested area significantly influence export volumes. The regression model developed demonstrated a moderate explanatory power with an R² value of 53%, indicating that the model explains 53% of the variance in coffee exports. The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test confirmed the model's significance, highlighting that the included variables collectively impact coffee exports. Partial t-test analysis revealed that the harvested area, producer coffee prices, and exchange rates are significant factors. The study concludes that enhancing the quality and competitiveness of Indonesian coffee, improving infrastructure, and adopting supportive government policies are crucial strategies to boost coffee exports. These efforts must address the challenges posed by global market dynamics, competition, and environmental factors to ensure the sustainable growth of Indonesia's coffee sector.

Abstract

The Cavendish banana is known for its quality attributes, including price, taste, skin color, cleanliness, and more. These attributes, when meeting consumer expectations, can lead to high consumer satisfaction. Improving these quality attributes can enhance consumer satisfaction and encourage increased consumption of the fruit. This study aims to analyze the impact of the quality attributes of Cavendish bananas on consumer satisfaction in Sidoarjo. The research was conducted on consumers who purchase directly from small vendors and supermarkets in Sidoarjo using the Accidental Sampling technique.
