Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the socio-economic and agro-ecological aspects of chili production in three selected communities of three districts —Magelang, Brebes, and Rembang—that represent distinct agro-ecosystems of chili cultivation within Central Java province. This is to answer a problem statement that chili farming still faces crop protection aspects as limiting factors in chili production. This study uses quantitative descriptive methods. Data were compiled from a survey of 160 chili farmers in 2010-2011. The results show that yield loss due to pests and diseases was considerable, and some of these problems were becoming difficult to control. The three top pests were thrips, mites, and whitefly; and the top three diseases were Anthracnose, Gemini-viruses, and Phytophthora. During the wet season, risk of anthracnose was very high; in the dry season, risk of yield lost to Gemini-viruses and Phytophthora was high. The potential losses could reach 100%. There is a crucial need to solve the problems by enhancing farmers’ knowledge and involving research institutions focusing on crop protection strategy.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of an integrated disease management (IDM) on chilli. Chili disease control technologies that include crop barrier with corn and Crotalaria, and compost tea have been introduced to farmers in Magelang and Brebes. A qualitative approach was used to assess and estimate the socio-economic impact of agricultural research. The study was conducted in 2011. The results showed that based on land use chili, the net economic benefits generated was relatively low. There were only a few farmers who have adopted the technology on chili peppers. Furthermore, the survey also illustrates that three years after its introduction in 2007 the technology status at farm level was just at consciousness phase. Learning of this fact, a thorough evaluation of the technology on chili pepper should be done immediately. Research institutions which have developed the technology should encourage bottom-up initiatives and build a shared commitment to complete the implementation of a clear strategic plan. The adoption of the strategic plan should include the integration of research activities with promotional activities for example by revitalizing participatory approaches to awareness of farmers.

Abstract

Sharia banks have been developing in many countries since the evidence that the banks weremore resistant to financial shocks. In Indonesia, Sharia banks have a good environment becausemajority of Indonesian people is Muslim. During recent years, Shariabanking inIndonesiashows a dramatic growth. This paper is to examine internal factors affecting customers decisionto choose Sharia banking systemas a place of saving. Logit regression was used to estimate amodel of customers decision. Cross-sectional data, consisting of101 Sharia customers and 110conventional customers, were randomly drawn from database of a multinational bank that provides both Sharia and conventional schemes. The results show that age, gender and religion ledto customers more likely to invest their money in Sharia scheme. In contrast, income, entrepreneur and student led to customers less likely to choose Sharia scheme as a place of investment.Highest positive impact came from religion, and highest negative impact came from student.Even though the majorityof Indonesian people are Muslim, the total possibility of people to select Sharia scheme was low.
