Abstract

Solok rice is an important agricultural commodity that contributes significantly to the economic prosperity of the West Sumatra region. As indigenous knowledge from West Sumatra, the development and preservation of Solok rice can stimulate a nationwide increase in rice production. The cumulative effects of the entire sequence of activities comprising Solok rice production will impact environmental quality due to increased output. Therefore, a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)-based environmental impact assessment of Solok rice production is necessary. The analysis results indicate that the total greenhouse gas emissions from Solok rice production equal 1.94 kg CO2eq per kilogram of rice. The subsequent potential effects include acidification at a rate of 0.06 kilograms of SO2-equivalent per kilogram of rice and eutrophication at a rate of kilograms of PO43-equivalent per kilogram of rice. The calculation of net energy yielded a Net Energy Value (NEV) of 18.36 GJ and a Net Energy Ratio (NER) greater than 1. To mitigate emission values in the land and environment, the current system improvement emphasizes fertilizer consumption, increasing the use of organic materials, and instituting production waste recycling.

Abstract

Avocado starch has gained attention as a potential bio-based material due to its unique features that make it suitable for forming biofilms. This work thoroughly examines the changing field of research focused on using avocado starch for biofilm applications. It uses VOSviewer, a tool for analyzing bibliometric data, to uncover important insights using a database of Scopus-indexed journal publishers. This study aimed to determine research trends on the use of avocado starch for biofilm production. The Scopus database collected information on research trends in the use of avocado starch for biofilm production. To obtain search results, subject categories with titles, keywords, and abstract criteria from the use of avocado starch extraction, biofilm/bioplastic production, and biocomposite were used as a reference. Using VOSviewer, search result extraction was performed. The results of bibliometric mapping were then further evaluated. The findings of the bibliometric study are demonstrated through network visualization, overlay visualization, and density visualization. The findings indicate that starch produced from avocados has the potential to be a viable resource for manufacturing biofilms. However, further investigation is required to enhance the overall quality of the produced biofilm.

Abstract

Agarwood oil, derived from the fragrant resinous wood of the Aquilaria and Gyrinops trees, has attracted great attention due to its diverse pharmacological properties and commercial value. The complex chemical composition of agarwood oil, consisting of more than 150 chemical compounds, has been linked to its therapeutic potential in treating chronic inflammatory diseases, anxiety, depression, and insomnia. This research uses exploratory, descriptive research. The research used in this research is the literature study method regarding the development of agarwood oil research and its benefits. Documents from the Scopus website are saved in the following form: RIS-type files. Analysis was conducted using VOSviewer 1.6.18 for Windows software. The research results show that there has been a decline in the trend of research on agarwood oil over the last 10 years; most research on agarwood oil has been carried out by Malaysia and China and followed by Japan. Research has revealed numerous benefits of agarwood oil, indicating its potential for development into derivative goods, particularly in the health and fragrance industries.

Abstract

Community empowerment through the development of roselle and mango-based food products in Ban Village, Karangasem, Bali, aims to enhance community independence and welfare by developing roselle and mango-based food products in Ban Village, Karangasem, Bali. The focus is on effective food processing, fostering entrepreneurial spirit, and providing training in product diversification and marketing. Collaboration with universities and networks supports sustainable development, increases the economic value of local agricultural products, opens new market opportunities, and encourages sustainable ecotourism while preserving local wisdom in Ban Village. The initiative involves 15 members of the Ban Village PKK group, established in 2010. The implementation method is structured and includes coaching, training, mentoring, and consultation to address various challenges in adding value for partners. Community service activities are conducted through lectures, discussions, demonstrations, training sessions, and Q&A. As a result, the community empowerment activities significantly increased the knowledge and skills of PKK members in processing and marketing roselle and mango products, such as roselle tea and mango dodol, thereby creating new sources of income. Despite the progress, most participants require further training in packaging and product variety. Diversification efforts have increased the economic value of local agricultural products, providing stable profits for farmers.

Abstract

This study presents a critical narrative review of national and international literature published between 1995 and 2024 to examine the conceptual and empirical contributions of local food diversification in building sustainable food systems. Local food diversification plays a strategic role in building a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable food system. A narrative critical review method was employed, allowing for thematic synthesis of peer-reviewed publications obtained from databases such as Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and accredited national journals. Literature selection focused on the keywords: local food diversification, food security, agroecology, local wisdom, and sustainable food systems. The collected data were analysed by mapping findings into five key dimensions: ecology, socio-culture, economy, technology, and policy and institutions. Findings highlight that agroecological diversification based on local biodiversity improves climate resilience and food availability, while also preserving cultural identity and empowering rural economies. Technological innovation and participatory policy approaches are essential to support local food systems. Strengthening multi-sector collaboration, research funding, and community participation is key to positioning local food diversification as a foundation for inclusive and resilient national food policy. This study emphasises the importance of strengthening institutions, research funding, and cross-sector collaboration to make local food diversification the foundation of the national food security strategy. By placing local values and diversity as pillars of policy, Indonesia can realise a future food system that is resilient, sovereign, and aligned with the principles of sustainability.
