Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the competitiveness of Stevia agriculture in Tawangmangu Subdistrict, Karanganyar Regency based on its competitive and comparative advantage, as well as to know the effect of government policies on this agricultural product. The basic method used is a descriptive analysis with a quantitative approach. The study involved 14 stevia cultivators as respondents. Sampling was carried out by way of census. The data of the study were collected during one stevia planting season in the course of 2015-2018, with an average planting period of 4 years. The data were collected using Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) method. The results reveal that stevia farming in Tawangmangu Subdistrict is proven to have a competitive advantage as seen from the value of PP and PCR. It also has a comparative advantage as indicated by its SP and DRCR values. The impact of government policy is apparent from (a) the value of EPC and NPCO pinpointing that there is protection from government policy for domestic farmers who cultivate stevia intensively, especially for output (stevia dried leaves) prices. It is also indicated by (b) the value of NPCI highlighting that the tradable input costs paid by farmers are lower than the cost of tradable inputs that should be paid. This is in accordance with the rule of the Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia No.47/Permentan/SR.310/11/2018. It is pivotal that the government provide the stevia farmers with stevia superior seeds to boost the production of high-quality stevia product.

Abstract

Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture issued Minister of Agriculture Regulations Number 53 in 2015 about Good Agricultural Practices for Sugarcane as an effort to increase production and productivity of sugarcane. The implementation of GAP on various commodities was differ since risk across commodities and risk attitude among farmers are varied. Hence, this study aims to analyze (1) the implementation level of Sugarcane GAP among farmers of the Wonolangan Sugar factory and (2) the influence of risk attitudes toward GAP implementation. The study was conducted on 102 randomly-selected farmers in Lumajang and Probolinggo Regency. The level of GAP implementation is measured by Likert scale with nine indicators of Sugarcane GAP. The level of GAP implementation is categorized into low, medium, and high based on the total score of GAP implementation obtained from each farmer. One-sample t-test is used to test the implementation level of GAP. Risk attitudes are measured with a Likert scale, as refers to Pennings and Garcia method. The influence of risk attitudes towards GAP implementation is analyzed using OLS regression. The result of t-test shows that the level of GAP implementation among sugarcane farmers is medium and high, and most farmers are risk-averse. Of the nine components used as indicators, seed preparation and labor welfare are in the medium category. Based on the OLS regression, risk-taker farmers have a lower GAP implementation than that of risk-averse farmers. Farmers' lack of knowledge about GAP guidelines, can be supported by the presence of socialization activities by sugar factories, extension workers, and related institutions.

Abstract

The distribution of chrysanthemum flowers from Bandungan District to consumers in the city can be at risk of damage. This study aims to determine the risk sources and types in the chrysanthemum supply chain; analyze risks probability and impact risk as well as risk capacity management among the chrysanthemum supply chain agents; and identify the risk priority in the chrysanthemum supply chains based on the level of loss and vulnerability. Data collection was conducted between April and September 2019 at Bandungan sub-distric Semarang distric. This study interviewed fifty farmers, fifteen middlemen, eight suppliers, and twentyfive  florists. Additionally, there were also interviewed three expert regarding chrysanthemum faming. These were the leader of Astha Bunda Kalirang farmers group, the head of marketing division of Astha Bunda Kaliurang Farmers Group, and staff on BPTP in Yogyakarta. Data was analyzed using Rapid Agricultural Risk Assessment (RapAgRisk). Results showed that there were six risk sources and 23 risk types that were present along the chrysanthemum supply chain. Six risks source such as natural hazard, weather, market, management and operational, logistical and infrastructure, and plant biological and environmental. Supply chain actors who have the highest risk are at farmer level.

Abstract

This study aims to: (1) determine the characteristics of chrysanthemum consumers in three cities in Java, namely Yogyakarta, Semarang and Surakarta, (2) compare the willingness to pay (WTP) of chrysanthemum consumers, especially Pasopati cultivar in the three cities, (3) analyze the determinant factors of the chrysanthemum consumers’ WTP. There is a total of 120 respondents who participated in this study, i.e., 40 in each city selected with accidental sampling. The consumers’ WTP was assessed using contingent valuation method, and its determinant factors was analyzed using multiple regression. The results showed that the majority of chrysanthemum consumers in the three cities were 17-25 years old, were female, held a bachelor degree, owned a job, were single and had no dependent. The value of wilingness to pay from the three cities shows higher results than the market price of IDR 30,000. The highest WTP value is in Semarang City and the lowest WTP value is in Yogyakarta City. Based on the results of the regression, the determinants that influence the value of WTP differ in each city, but income is a significant determinant in all cities. The value of willingness to pay chrysanthemum Pasopati cultivar can be used as a reference to set the selling price of chrysanthemum flowers. Chrysanthemum such as Pasopati cultivar in Indonesia, needs to be developed more by looking at the willingness of consumers to pay.

Abstract

Indonesia can use bioenergy to meet its renewable energy consumption target. Community perception must be known when designing communication strategies or policies regarding biogas as a renewable energy source. This study aims to 1) evaluate the knowledge, attitude, behavior, and overall perception of the Gambiran Hamlet, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia residents on biogas from cacao waste, and 2) investigate the factors affecting the perception of the Gambiran Hamlet residents on biogas. Socio-economic data were collected by doing surveys and observation. One sample t-test was conducted to determine the perception of the Gambiran Hamlet community towards biogas made from cacao waste. Moreover, logistic regression was used to determine the factors affecting the perception of biogas. Most of the residents can define biogas properly. Moreover, the residents' attitude and behavior were positive regarding relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, and observability components. Gambiran Hamlet residents’ perception of biogas from cacao waste is positive. Furthermore, the higher the educational attainment and being male, the greater the chance of a positive perception of biogas. However, household size, age, and income are statistically insignificant. Furthermore, socialization, training, and mentoring are needed for biogas installation. This research successfully provides fresh insights into residents' perception of biogas from cacao waste and uncovers key factors, like gender and education, influencing their perception, offering valuable guidance for targeted policy and communication strategies.

Due to COVID-19 outbreak, transactions through e-commerce sites had also increased. During the outbreak, customers in Indonesia had a tendency to allocate their income for essential needs such as vegetables and fruits. This study aims to: (1) assess the frequency of vegetables and fruits purchases through e-commerce sites before the Omicron outbreak (October – December 2021) and during the Omicron outbreak (January – March 2022); and (2) examine the determinant factors of customers repurchase decision to buy vegetables and fruits through e-commerce sites. Data were collected using online questionnaire distributed to 140 respondents that were selected based on age and experience of purchasing vegetables and fruits online. The differences in frequency of purchasing vegetables and fruits through e-commerce sites before and during the Omicron outbreak were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. Meanwhile, the determinant factors of the decision to repurchase vegetables and fruits through e-commerce sites were analyzed using binary logistic regression. The results showed that there is no significant difference in frequencies between purchasing before and during the Omicron outbreak. Education, products, price discounts, promotions, and COVID-19 situation are the determinant factors of repurchase decision of vegetables and fruits through e-commerce sites.  As the writer conducting this study, there was no previous study on the same case that using the combination of demographic, marketing mix, and situational factor as determinant factors on customers repurchase decision through online platforms.
