Abstract

Bird’s eye chili farming is an important part of the horticultural sector that plays a role in supporting food needs and the rural economy. This study aims to analyze farmers' social capital in bird’s eye chili farming in Sukowiryo Village, Jelbuk District, Jember Regency. This research uses a quasi qualitative method, with data collection techniques using in-depth interviews, passive participation observation, and documentation of the main and supporting informants. The results show that social capital, consisting of social networks, norms, and trust plays an important role in every stage of farming, starting from the procurement of seeds or seedlings, land processing, planting, maintenance, pest and disease control, harvest and post-harvest, to marketing. Social networks between farmers, families, labor, market actors, and formal institutions facilitate the flow of information and resources. Norms, both written and unwritten, serve as guidelines for cooperation. Trust built on shared experiences and common goals strengthens social cohesion and ensures the sustainability of cooperation. This research shows that social capital is not only a supporting factor, but a strategic resource in realizing the sustainability of bird’s eye chili farming. Therefore, strengthening social capital can improve farmers' welfare

Abstract

The Role of Agricultural Extension Workers in the Adoption of Organic Fertilizer Innovation in the Tirto Mulyo Farmer Group, Bumiharjo Village, Glenmore Sub-District, Banyuwangi Regency. This study examines the role of agricultural extension workers in supporting the adoption of organic farming. This research is motivated by the need to understand the effectiveness of agricultural extension agents in promoting the adoption of organic fertilizer innovations amid shortages of inorganic fertilizers and declining soil fertility. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze the roles of extension agents at each stage of the innovation adoption process within the Tirto Mulyo Farmer Group in Bumiharjo Village, Glenmore Sub-district, Banyuwangi. A qualitative approach was employed, with informants selected purposively. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The findings show that the roles of extension agents vary across the stages of innovation adoption. In the knowledge stage, agents acted as facilitators, motivators, dynamicators, and educators, but did not yet function as consultants. The persuasion stage revealed only the facilitator role, while in the decision stage, the agents acted as both motivators and consultants. During the implementation stage, they fulfilled the roles of facilitator, motivator, educator, and consultant, although the dynamicator role remained absent. In the confirmation stage, the facilitator, motivator, and consultant roles were evident, while the dynamicator and educator roles did not appear. This study concludes that the roles of extension agents have not been fully optimized across all stages of adoption. It is recommended that extension agents strengthen their consultant and dynamicator functions—particularly in the early and final stages of adoption—and continually enhance the quality of facilitation and technical assistance.

Abstract

The Role of Farmer Group Leader in the Application of Organic Fertilizer for Cayenne Pepper Cultivation. The application of organic fertilizer is strongly influenced by the direction and support of a leader, especially the head of a farmer group. This study aims to analyze the role of the farmer group leader in the application of organic fertilizer and identify obstacles faced by members. A descriptive qualitative research method was employed, utilizing observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Informants were determined purposively, consisting of 1 group leader, 13 members, and 1 Agricultural Extension Officer (PPL). Data analysis followed the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model, which includes data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was tested through source triangulation. The results show the group leader plays several roles. The liaison role involves bridging information between members, PPLs, farmers, and consumers. The leader’s role is evident in efforts to maintain group cohesion and manage the legality of organic fertilizer products. The monitoring role is carried out through overseeing and gathering information related to organic fertilizer. The dissemination role is carried out by providing information to members, while the spokesperson role is demonstrated by conveying the group’s needs to external parties. Additionally, the leader plays an entrepreneurial role by introducing innovations to members and is involved in problem-solving, resource allocation, and negotiation with PPLs, consumers, and local government. The obstacles faced by members include natural factors such as rain that hinders drying of raw materials, lack of drying equipment, limited member understanding, and limited availability of raw materials.

Abstract

Krisis regenerasi petani menjadi tantangan serius bagi keberlanjutan sektor pertanian di Indonesia, termasuk di Kabupaten Jember sebagai sentra produksi semangka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi persepsi anak petani terhadap profesi petani semangka dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhinya di Kecamatan Puger. Pendekatan penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif deskriptif dengan teknik survei melalui kuesioner kepada 75 anak petani berusia 21–25 tahun yang belum terjun dalam bidang pertanian. Data dianalisis menggunakan regresi linier berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden memiliki persepsi negatif terhadap profesi petani semangka yang dianggap tidak menjanjikan secara ekonomi, kurang bergengsi, dan memiliki beban kerja fisik yang tinggi. Faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh signifikan terhadap persepsi anak petani meliputi usia, pendidikan, dukungan keluarga, motivasi berprestasi, dan dukungan pemerintah. Sementara itu, faktor eksternal seperti penyuluhan dan ketersediaan sumber daya memiliki pengaruh tetapi tidak signifikan secara statistik. Temuan ini menegaskan perlunya strategi peningkatan minat generasi muda melalui pendekatan pendidikan, penguatan kelembagaan penyuluhan, dan pemberdayaan keluarga petani untuk menjaga keberlanjutan usahatani semangka di wilayah pedesaan.

Abstract

Banana production in Indonesia has increased year after year in line with population growth and economic development. Banana farming carries a high level of risk, including pest and virus attacks, unpredictable climate change, market risks, and low human resources. Bondowoso is one of the banana-producing regencies in East Java, and is among the top eleven banana producers in the region, with the potential to contribute raw materials for bananas. One banana that is increasingly growing and in high demand is the Cavendish banana. The banana production is marketed to PT Nusantara Segar Abadi (PT NSA) for further distribution outside the city, outside the island, and to the international market. However, Cavendish banana farmers still face various obstacles in marketing their crops to the company. This research aimed to: (1) To find out the comparative advantages of banana commodities in Bondowoso Regency, (2) To find out the competitive advantages of banana commodities in Bondowoso Regency, (3) To find out the sustainability and leveraging factors for developing a local banana-based economy and (4) To determine strategies for developing a local banana-based economy in Bondowoso Regency.. The study employed a descriptive quantitative method using RAPFISH analysis and to formulate a partnership sustainability strategy using SWOT analysis. The results showed that: (1) The results of the Location Quotient (LQ) analysis of sub-districts with an average LQ value greater than one were thirteen sub-districts out of a total of twenty-three sub-districts in Bondowoso Regency. This means that the LQ calculation based on land area indicators indicates that banana commodities have a comparative advantage in Bondowoso Regency. (2) The Proportional Shift (0.057) and Differential Shift (0) values were positive (+), indicating that the banana commodity sector plays an important role in the internal economy relative to the broader (external) economic system. (3) The sustainability status of local economic development is assessed across five dimensions, with an average Sustainability Index value of 81.23, categorized as highly sustainable. (4) The IFAS and EFAS scores each show a positive (+) value. The Strengths score is greater than the Weaknesses score, with a difference of (+) 0.58, and the Opportunities score is greater than the Threats score, with a difference of (+) 0.17. Therefore, the local economic development strategy falls between the Strengths and Opportunities (SO) strategies, namely in Quadrant I. Therefore, the analysis of local economic development in Bondowoso Regency uses Strategy (ST).
