Abstract

Red yellow podzolic (RYP) soil is one of the limiting factors in crop cultivation due to its high level of acidity and low content of essential nutrients. This study aimed to explore the effect of oil palm empty bunch (OPEB) compost and goat manure on shallots cultivated on RYP soil, determine the best treatment combination as fertilization recommendation, and analyze the economic feasibility for organic shallot farms. Observations were conducted on soil pH, crop growth, crop yield, shallot farm economic analysis, and the fertilization effectiveness calculation.  The results demonstrated that the fertilization had a significant interaction effect on crop height, number of tillers, and fresh and dry tuber weights, but not on the soil pH, number of leaves, and tubers per cluster. A combination of 4 ton/ha compost and 1,00 ton/ha manure resulted in optimal production of dry tubers reaching 0.708 kg/plot (2.36 ton/ha). Meanwhile, the highest production of dry tubers of around 0.990 kg/plot (3.30 ton/ha) resulted from the combination of 5 ton/ha compost and 1.25 ton/ha manure.  Farm analysis showed that organic fertilizer applications provided economic profit, indicated by R/C Ratio value greater than 1. The effectiveness of organic fertilization using compost and manure reached the highest values of 318.90% and 384%, respectively.

Abstract

Low farmer participation in sustainable cocoa certification schemes poses a strategic challenge for enhancing the competitiveness of Indonesian cocoa products in global markets. This study aims to analyze the influence of social capital and gender roles on farmer participation in the Rainforest Alliance certification scheme in Poso Regency. Employing a cross-sectional design, the research involved 200 farm households (100 certified and 100 non-certified) selected through purposive sampling in South Pamona District. Data were analyzed using binary logistic regression to identify determinants of farmer participation. The analysis revealed a model prediction accuracy of 89.5% with a Nagelkerke R² of 0.856. Findings confirm that all dimensions of social capital have significant positive effects: farmer group membership (OR=8.899, p<0.001), participation intensity (OR=1.408, p<0.001), structural position (OR=2.259, p<0.01), social interaction (OR=1.307, p<0.05), and information access (OR=1.864, p<0.05). Regarding gender roles, women's involvement in production (OR=1.578, p<0.01), joint decision-making (OR=3.435, p<0.01), and joint income control (OR=2.440, p<0.05) showed significant effects, while household head gender was not significant (p=0.469). Significant farmer characteristics included education (OR=1.219, p<0.05), credit access (OR=2.573, p<0.05), and training participation (OR=6.399, p<0.001). This study confirms that the quality of social capital and gender dynamics in household decision-making are more determinant than demographic characteristics in explaining farmer participation in certification schemes. Policy implications include strengthening farmer group quality, adopting household-sensitive approaches in certification programs, facilitating financing access, and intensifying sustainable training programs.
