Abstract

This research aims to examine sustainable agricultural practices from economic, ecological, and social perspectives and how this approach can improve farmers' welfare and environmental sustainability. The research method used is a literature review, which collects and analyzes information from various sources such as scientific journals, books, and research reports. The results show that farm diversification, product value addition, and production efficiency are key strategies that can enhance farmers' economic welfare. From an ecological perspective, soil and water conservation practices, biodiversity management, and reducing chemical use are crucial for environmental sustainability. Socially, sustainable agriculture positively impacts farmers' welfare, community empowerment, and public health. Policy support, access to technology and markets, and comprehensive education and training are key factors in implementing sustainable agriculture. By integrating economic, ecological, and social perspectives, sustainable agriculture can be a holistic solution to modern agricultural challenges in Indonesia.

Abstract

Traditional agriculture has long been an integral part of agrarian systems in various regions, yet global challenges such as climate change and urbanization demand more sustainable approaches. This study aims to explore the opportunities and challenges of integrating traditional agricultural systems with sustainable agriculture concepts through a literature review method. The findings reveal that traditional practices, such as crop rotation and organic fertilization, align with sustainability principles. However, there is a need to enhance efficiency through the application of modern technologies such as precision irrigation and integrated pest management. This integration faces significant challenges, including farmers' limited access to technology and a lack of supportive policies. The study highlights the importance of contextual approaches, farmer training, and cross-sector collaboration to optimize the potential of this integration. Thus, the findings provide relevant insights for developing sustainable agricultural policies and practices in Indonesia and other countries.

Abstract

Rice farmers in Indonesia face significant challenges due to climate change, including unpredictable weather patterns, extended dry spells, and increased pest outbreaks. This study explores the resilience of rice farmers to climate change through sustainable agricultural practices using a qualitative approach with five purposively selected participants. Data collection included semi-structured interviews, field observations, and document reviews, analyzed through thematic analysis. Results reveal that farmers are adopting practices such as integrated pest management, organic fertilizers, efficient water use, and resilient seed varieties. However, barriers such as economic constraints, knowledge gaps, and inconsistent institutional support hinder broader adoption. The findings emphasize the need for targeted policy interventions, capacity-building programs, and leveraging community networks to enhance resilience. This study contributes to understanding how grassroots-level adaptations can mitigate climate impacts and promote agricultural sustainability in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the role of community participation in mangrove forest conservation in Kaimana Regency, West Papua, using a qualitative approach with five key informants, including local residents, community leaders, and environmental activists. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and field observations, then analyzed thematically. The findings reveal that community participation is central to mangrove conservation, manifested in activities such as planting, monitoring, and protecting mangroves from exploitation. Local wisdom and traditional norms, rooted in indigenous culture, serve as guiding principles that reinforce compliance and foster a collective sense of ownership. Nevertheless, challenges such as limited financial resources, lack of technical expertise, and external pressures from aquaculture and coastal development threaten the sustainability of these initiatives. Collaboration with NGOs, universities, and government agencies has strengthened local capacity, yet policy support remains inconsistent. This study concludes that integrating local wisdom, empowering communities, and fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration are essential strategies for effective and sustainable mangrove management in West Papua.
The Effectiveness of Integrated Farming Systems in Improving Household Food Security Kamakaula, Yohanes; Baaka, Alnita

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Integrated Farming Systems (IFS) in improving household food security in Indonesia using a quantitative approach. A total of 70 farming households were surveyed through structured questionnaires, with responses measured on a Likert scale (1–5). Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25, including descriptive statistics, reliability and validity testing, correlation, and regression analysis. The results show that IFS significantly and positively influence household food security, with the strongest effects observed on food availability and food accessibility, followed by food utilization and stability. Regression analysis confirmed that IFS explained 41.3% of the variance in household food security (β = 0.642, p < 0.001). These findings highlight that IFS not only increase food production and income but also contribute to dietary diversity and resilience against external shocks. The study concludes that integrated farming is an effective strategy to strengthen rural household food security and supports Indonesia’s broader goal of achieving sustainable food sovereignty.
