Abstract

The palm oil industry in Indonesia, especially among smallholders, faces challenges in adopting Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) to achieve sustainability standards such as ISPO. This study explores the extent to which smallholders understand GAP and the factors that influence their adoption. Using a survey approach through structured interviews with oil palm farmers in Bangka District, this study explored the relationship between farmers' socio-economic characteristics and their understanding of GAP. The collected data were analyzed using multiple regression to identify significant patterns, especially regarding the influence of training and mentoring on GAP adoption. The study also highlighted unique dynamics between land size, income, and farming experience, providing important insights into small-scale farmers' adoption of modern methods. The results open up a discussion on how farmer capacity-building strategies can be designed to accelerate GAP adoption in the future.

Abstract

In Central Bangka, The red chili pepper's productivity is still considered at low level. It is corroborated from comparison between the productivity of red chili pepper which is computed as 35.6 quintal per hectare while the potential productivity of the genetics of red chili pepper is 200-220 quintal per hectare. It is presumed that the productivity of red chili pepper is technically inefficient. The aim of the study is to analyze factors that affect the production of red chili pepper and the technical inefficiency. The study also determines the level of technical efficiency of red chili pepper on smallholders who participate in the agriculture productivity improvement program in Central Bangka Regency. Survey was carried out to collect the data with purposive sampling method. The criteria of respondents were those red chili pepper smallholders who had involved with the agriculture productivity improvement program. The total sampled respondents were 43 smallholders. Stochastic frontier analysis with the Maximum Likelihood Estimate was used to analyze the data. The study discovered the factors that affect the production of red chili pepper were labor, potassium fertilizer, insecticide, and fungicide. Furthermore, the productivity of red chili pepper was considered as technically inefficient which was shown from the average score of technical efficient, 0.54. Finally, the study revealed that side job became factor that could increase the technical inefficiency of red chili pepper farming activity while the frequency of attending the empowerment program and farmer field school were otherwise.

Abstract

The local authorities are promoting Buku Limau Island as an emerging tourist site. The island's distinguishing features include stunning coral reefs, picturesque white sandy beaches, and its role as a hub for the production of salted and fresh seafood. The objective of this study is to identify and describe the natural and cultural attractions on Buku Limau Island, particularly in the Manggar Subdistrict of East Belitung Regency. Additionally, the study seeks to examine social networks in order to facilitate the development and expansion of natural and cultural tourism destinations in the area. This research employs a mixed-method approach, utilizing data gathering approaches such as observation, focus group discussions (FGD), and surveys administered through questionnaires. UCINET program was used to conduct descriptive qualitative analysis and social network analysis to identify and reveal tourist characteristics. This is followed by the breakdown and study of social networks among stakeholders and interest groups. The findings of this study indicate that Buku Limau Island exhibits attributes of both natural and cultural tourism, with the predominant population of fishermen being of Bugis ethnicity. The identification and study of social networks demonstrate that stakeholders have formed networks to actively support and cultivate tourism attractions, encompassing both natural and cultural aspects. Nevertheless, there are still certain stakeholders who have not been engaged in the network throughout the process of developing and improving the tourism destination.  The research limits are deliberately established to enhance the study's focus and depth. The information and data acquired are directly relevant to the fundamental issue of this investigation. The scope of this study is limited to the creation of natural and cultural tourism centered around social networks on Buku Limau Island. Theoretical implications shed light on the ideas of local government assistance, social networks, and tourist attractions. Meanwhile, the practical consequences surely affect the government, tourism stakeholders, and the community in their efforts to promote the growth of natural and cultural tourism through social networks on Buku Limau Island.

Abstract

The existence of pesantren today, apart from being an educational institution in the religious field, is also expected to be able to provide an example towards creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship to students. The purpose of this service activity is to empower the application of probio_Fm technology in laying duck cultivation, transfer knowledge of laying duck cultivation, and build an entrepreneurial spirit for students and the community around the boarding school. The service method uses an active participatory approach, starting with preparation and socialization activities, training, mentoring in duck cultivation, harvesting, and data collection. Data analysis was carried out by qualitative descriptive analysis. The results show that the pesantren community has been empowered to apply probio_FM technology for duck cultivation, both through drinking water and feed. The application of probio_FM technology in the cultivation of laying ducks makes the cultivation method easy, does not cause odors around the pesantren environment, and egg productivity reaches 87.5%.
