Abstract

This community service program aims to empower shallot farmers in Brebes Regency by improving production efficiency to increase income and local economic sustainability. Brebes, a major national shallot production center, faces efficiency issues due to excessive input use and weak farm management. A team of lecturers conducted participatory training and mentoring covering technical efficiency, financial management, cost and revenue analysis, and strengthening farmer group institutions. The results showed an increase in productivity from 9.5 tons to 11.2 tons per hectare, a Revenue/Cost ratio from 1.42 to 1.68, and technical efficiency from 0.78 to 0.91. Awareness of financial recording increased from 15% to 85%, and a marketing cooperative was formed, strengthening farmers' bargaining power. This program successfully transformed traditional patterns into efficient and sustainable farming systems, while strengthening the role of universities in empowering agricultural communities.

The main objective of this research is to determine and evaluate the influence of price, electronic word-of-mouth (e-WOM), and brand image on the purchasing behavior of Shopee application users among STIE Pelita Nusantara Semarang students. A purposive sampling approach was used in data collection, with a total of 72 respondents participating in this investigation. Primary data analysis in this research was carried out through multiple regression analysis. The research results show that price, electronic word-of-mouth (e-WOM), and brand image have a positive and important influence, both individually and collectively, on the purchasing decisions of Shopee application users among STIE Pelita Nusantara students. Within the framework of this research, price emerges as the most influential factor influencing purchasing choices.
