Abstract

Multiple cropping farming systems affect farmers' income and have become a serious determinant in agricultural development. The diversity of information received by the farmers including multiple cropping can provide new knowledge, which will in turn influence productivity and income. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the benefits of multiple cropping and its economic impact on cocoa farmers' income. It was conducted using the Ordinary Least Square Method to estimate parameters and RC Ratio for income comparison from the farming systems. The results showed that the choice of farmers in cropping patterns and types of crops is aimed at avoiding crop failure. The advantage of multiple cropping is that the use of soil nutrients is more effective because plants grow together on the same land. It also provides a higher income compared to monocropping and tends to reduce operational costs. Among the five factors evaluated, only three influenced farmers' income through extension activities. They are information on credit amount obtained, level of heterogeneity, and agricultural production. These factors are important aspects of communication activities that can increase knowledge in a heterogeneous environment of multiple cropping systems, which will, in turn, improve farmers' income.

Abstract

Pollewani Village is one of the areas in Tutar District, Polewali Mandar Regency, which has the largest and most remote administrative area in the regency, and therefore receives less attention from the regency government. This area has significant potential for dryland rice, with productivity reaching 3.97 tons per hectare in 2023. However, this yield is still much lower than that of wetland rice, corn, and cassava in the area. One solution to this problem is technological innovation, primarily through farmer training and the provision of modern facilities and infrastructure. By improving farmers' skills in dryland rice cultivation and introducing new superior varieties of rice seeds (Inpari-32), it is hoped that this will support the rate of increase in upland rice production in Pollewani Village. The implementation method includes providing interactive materials, practice in demonstration plots, and evaluation using questionnaires. The results indicate that this activity can increase farmers' knowledge, as evidenced by an increase in participants' average score from 33.33 to 70.

Abstract

Learning from the New Order era (1970–1984), when Indonesia successfully achieved rice self-sufficiency through the Green Revolution and earned an FAO award, the government launched the Food Brigade Movement in 2023 to involve the younger generation in accelerating national food self-sufficiency. By mid-2025, the program had demonstrated notable progress in attracting young farmers to contribute to agricultural and economic development. As with any large-scale movement built within a relatively short period, several institutional aspects still require strengthening, particularly cross-sector coordination and synergy among related institutions.This research, conducted in Sidrap Regency, aims to identify and map the challenges faced by the Food Brigade in achieving food self-sufficiency. Using an expert survey and the Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) approach, twenty sub-elements were analyzed, and eleven were identified as key challenges. The ISM results reveal that five challenges fall into the independent sector, while six are positioned in the linkage category.The main challenges relate to policy and governance systems, including: (1) The mechanism for drafting and implementing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for land management still needs to be strengthened; (2) cross-sectoral coordination is not yet fully integrated; (3) some Food Brigade establishment processes still require alignment with the technical guidelines; and (4) policy and program harmonization among relevant agencies still needs to be improved

Abstract

Child growth and development are strongly influenced by adequate nutritional intake and proper food processing practices at the household level.  In many communities, local cultural practices play an important role in shaping dietary habits and child-feeding behaviors.  This community service activity aimed to improve mothers’ knowledge and skills in healthy food processing through a local culture–based educational approach to support child growth and development in Balocci District, Pangkep Regency.  The activity was conducted using health education methods integrated with local cultural values, including interactive counseling, demonstrations of nutritious food processing using local ingredients, and participatory discussions.  A total of 30 mothers with children participated in the program.  Evaluation was carried out using pre-test and post-test questionnaires consisting of ten questions related to child nutrition, healthy food processing, and the utilization of local food resources.  The results showed a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge after the intervention.  The proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 20% before the activity to 73% after the education session, while the proportion of low knowledge decreased from 40% to 4%.  These findings indicate that culturally based health promotion is effective in enhancing mothers’ understanding and practices related to child nutrition and food preparation.  In conclusion, integrating local cultural values into health education can serve as an effective strategy to strengthen community participation and improve maternal capacity in supporting optimal child growth and development.  This approach is recommended for wider implementation in community health promotion programs.
