Abstract

The agricultural sector is one of Indonesia's economic sectors. With a comparison of land area and overall production, the province of D.I. Yogyakarta ranks among the largest producers in Indonesia. The inadequate well-being of farmers continues to be a pressing concern in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. This study examines the effects of the interconnections among farmers' exchange rates, poverty, consumer price indices, inequality, and inflation on farmers' well-being in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. Utilizing secondary data sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Yogyakarta Province spanning from 2005 to 2023 in a time series format, we employed the Granger Causality model to examine the interrelationship among the farmers' exchange rate, inflation rate, poverty, and inequality in Yogyakarta Province. Our analysis revealed that the one-way link over the long term indicated that only the consumer price index had a beneficial impact on the farmer's exchange rate. Moreover, inequality adversely impacts the farmers' exchange rate, signifying that an increase in provincial inequality results in a decline in farmers' income. In examining causal relationships, several noteworthy discoveries emerged, including that inflation impacts inequality, which subsequently affects the farmers' exchange rate, and the farmers' exchange rate influences the consumer price index. As a novel contribution, this paper presents the first attempt to examine the factors influencing farmer welfare in the Province of DI Yogyakarta. We investigate the potential causal effects of key economic variables—including inequality, inflation, and exchange rates—on farmers.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of inflation expectations, income, financial literacy, and trust in digital platforms on mutual fund investment decisions among university students in Purwokerto. The gap between the number of productive-age individuals and mutual fund investors indicates that students' investment interest remains low despite the increasing accessibility of digital investment platforms. The research employs a quantitative approach using a survey method through questionnaires and multiple linear regression analysis. The sample was determined using purposive sampling, consisting of university students in Purwokerto who have invested or are currently investing in mutual funds. The results show that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on mutual fund investment decisions. Partially, income, financial literacy, and trust in digital platforms have a positive and significant effect. In contrast, inflation expectations have no significant effect. These findings indicate that students' investment decisions are more strongly influenced by financial capacity, financial knowledge, and trust in digital platforms rather than macroeconomic factors such as inflation. As a novel contribution, this paper provides a new contribution by integrating macroeconomic information and psychosocial factors into the student investment behavior model, which has so far been limitedly studied in the context of young investors in educational hub regions such as Purwokerto.
