Abstract

The field school in Bonorejo Village has been implemented since 2020, initiated by ExxonMobil Cepu Limited (EMCL) in collaboration with the Bendera Nusantara Foundation (FIELD) as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program. A challenge faced by the field school in Bonorejo Village is the disparity in activity levels between farmers who have been participating since the beginning and those who have recently joined. This study aims to analyze the empowerment process of farmers in the field school in Bonorejo Village. Informants were determined using purposive and snowball sampling techniques, with a total of 10 informants. Data collection was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, followed by analysis using data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source, method, and technique triangulation. The results of the study show that the impact of empowerment consists of economic, behavioral, and social aspects. The economic impact is evident in the reduction of agricultural production costs; behavioral impact includes improved knowledge, attitudes, and skills, while the social impact is reflected in the increased social awareness due to friendships within the group, the emergence of mutual cooperation, helping behaviors, and expansion of farmers’ networks. However, these social interactions also have a negative impact, namely the emergence of inequality among field school participants. Farmers participating in the agricultural field school are expected to be more active and increase self-motivation in attending regular meetings.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze rice farmers’ attitudes toward the innovation of Nitrobacter organic fertilizer in Jaten Subdistrict, Karanganyar Regency, and to identify factors associated with attitude formation. A quantitative survey method was employed involving 45 rice farmers selected from villages representing different levels of innovation adoption. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaires using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman Rank Correlation. The results showed that farmers generally had positive attitudes toward the innovation, particularly regarding relative advantage, compatibility, trialability, and observability. However, moderate hesitation remained concerning the technical complexity of application. Non-formal education, farming experience, extension workers’ roles, internet media use, and socio-cultural factors were significantly associated with farmers’ attitudes (p < 0.05). Among these variables, socio-cultural factors had the strongest relationship. These findings indicate that increasing adoption of Nitrobacter organic fertilizer requires participatory extension programs, field demonstrations, digital information support, and locally adaptive communication strategies.

Abstract

Biopharmaceuticals are a type of plant that can be used as medicine. Developing farming for a commodity requires the role of various parties, one of which is agricultural institutions. Agricultural institutions are an important element in agricultural modernization and supporting farming in Trosono Village, which is known as a producer of biopharmaceutical commodities, especially ginger and turmeric. This research aims to determine the system, the role of institutions, and the impact of institutional roles on agriculture in the development of biopharmaceutical farming in Trosono Village. The research used a qualitative descriptive method and the determination of informants was carried out purposively and snowballing with a total of 13 informants consisting of administrators of agribusiness microfinance institutions, farmer group administrators, extension workers, middlemen, farmers and village heads. Data analysis used Miles and Huberman’s interactive analysis, then data validity was carried out using source triangulation and method triangulation techniques. The results of the research show that Trosono Village has an institutional system for both agricultural input and output, namely the Agribusiness Microfinance Institution, the Association of Farmer Groups, the Agricultural Extension Center and middlemen who work with each other in relation to biopharmaceutical farming. Each institution has a role that is demonstrated in the activities of each institution. However, in terms of institutional conditions in Trosono Village, it is still not optimal in accordance with the existing ideal conditions. The role of institutional activities in developing farming has a social impact on farmers such as improving relations, harmony and economic impacts in the form of easy access to capital, subsidies and marketing, so there has been no improvement in economic conditions. Coordination and assistance between agricultural institutions for biopharmaceutical commodities is needed so that a synergy arises in the implementation of programs and activities in the context of increasing biopharmaceutical commodities.

Abstract

Farming Motivation of Millennial Farmers in Tulung Sub-District, Klaten Regency. Indonesia’s agricultural sector has faced a crisis in the regeneration of millennial farmers. Based on data from the Agricultural Extension Center (BPP) of Tulung Sub-district in 2022, there are only 323 farmers from the age range of 22 to 37 years, which accounts for only 2% of the total millennial generation involved in agriculture. The farming motivation of millennial farmers plays a crucial role in the regeneration process of farmers in Indonesia. With high motivation, the regeneration of farmers can be achieved more effectively. This study aims to describe and analyze the factors that influence the farming motivation of millennial farmers. The unit of analysis in this study is millennial farmers with specific criteria in six villages in Tulung Sub-district, Klaten Regency. The sample consists of 53 respondents selected using the proportional random sampling method, determined through the Slovin formula. The data were analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method, facilitated by the IBM SPSS Statistics 27 application and Shazam version 9.0. The results showed that the role of agricultural extension agents, non-formal education, land tenure area, farming experience, and government program support collectively explained 70.42% of the variance in farming motivation among millennial farmers in Tulung Sub-district. Variables that positively and significantly influence the farming motivation of millennial farmers include the role of agricultural extension agents, non-formal education, land tenure area, and farming experience. Conversely, government program support has a negative and significant effect, likely due to the perceived abundance of programs that are not effectively implemented or aligned with the needs of millennial farmers. Therefore, it is imperative to design more tailored and equitable government programs, accompanied by regular evaluations, to encourage and support millennial farmers effectively.
