Abstract

As one of the world's largest coffee producers, Indonesia faces a new challenge with the enactment of the EU Deforestation-free Regulation (EUDR) by the European Union, a vital export market. This regulation requires that coffee products entering the EU market must be proven not to originate from land deforested after December 31, 2020. The objective of this article is to conduct an in- depth analysis of the EUDR's impact on the Indonesian coffee supply chain, evaluate the readiness of existing national policies, and identify policy responses that have been and need to be implemented. This study employs a qualitative method using a policy analysis approach and a comprehensive literature review of regulatory documents, government reports, and scientific publications. The results indicate significant challenges, particularly for millions of smallholder farmers, which include the obligation to provide geolocation data, fulfill due diligence requirements, and prove land legality, which is often undocumented. A gap was found between Indonesia's existing sustainable coffee management policies and the stringent requirements of the EUDR, especially concerning farm-level traceability. Although the Indonesian government has initiated several responsive measures, such as establishing a task force and diplomatic efforts, an acceleration in the development of an integrated and inclusive national traceability system is necessary. This article concludes that the EUDR, while a potential trade barrier, can also function as a catalyst to accelerate governance reforms in Indonesia's coffee sector towards more verifiable sustainability. Strategic policy implications are emphasized on strengthening farmer capacity, harmonizing regulations, and utilizing digital technology to ensure Indonesian coffee remains competitive in the global market.

Abstract

Stunting is a major public health challenge in Timor Tengah Selatan Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia due to ecological limitations and food insecurity that affect child nutritional status. This study analyzes the relationship between environmental carrying capacity, land-use suitability, and local food diversification as strategies to reduce stunting in Pana Village, Kolbano District, East Nusa Tenggara. The results showed that Pana Village experiences ecological constraints, including steep slopes, prolonged dry seasons, limited productive land, and varying soil quality. These conditions reduce agricultural productivity and limiting access to various nutritious food sources, contributing to chronic malnutrition. The study highlights the importance of integrating environmental management with nutrition-based strategies. Recommended interventions include conservation-based agriculture, community micro-irrigation systems, strengthening local institutions capacity, and the development of drought-resistant local crops. This integrated approach is essential to improve food security and child nutrition. This concludes that stunting reduction in Pana Village, Timor Tengah Selatan Regency requires synergy between ecological sustainability, agricultural resilience, and community-based nutrition programs.

Abstract

Air pollution around Benda Sub-district, Tangerang has become a critical environmental issue due to the high intensity of traffic transportation and industrial activities that contribute to the emission of harmful gases. Prolonged exposure to air pollutants poses significant health risks, including adverse effects on the human immune system, particularly for communities residing. This study aims to examine the immune response, specifically leukocyte differentials (neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, basophils, lymphocytes) and C-Reactive Protein in individuals aged 25–35 years living in densely populated settlements. A cross-sectional approach was employed involving 24 volunteer participants, accompanied by air quality measurements at the sampling location, including TSP, SO₂, NO₂, Pb, CO, Ox, NMHC, PM₁₀, and PM₂.₅. The results highlighted the high MCV levels in all participants could causing the basic inflammatory response in the body. Furthermore, this study revealed that air pollution exposure indirectly affects the immune system.

Abstract

Waste management in traditional markets is a major challenge in the context of urbanization and environmental sustainability. This study aims to analyze the sustainability index of waste management in Pasar Kebayoran Lama, Jakarta, using a three-dimensional approach: ecological, social, and economic. The methods used are literature study and assessment simulation based on indicators relevant to national policies, such as Law No. 18 Year 2008. The analysis showed that the overall sustainability index score was 1.5, indicating unsustainable conditions. The ecological aspect scored 1.3, social 1.6, and economic 1.6, reflecting the low effectiveness of waste management, lack of community participation, and not optimal waste-based economic empowerment. The proposed action plan includes increased education, waste segregation and recycling, and the development of a circular economy model. This study recommends cross-sector collaboration and continuous monitoring to realize a more ethical, efficient, and sustainable market waste management.
