Abstract

This research investigates the dynamics of soybean agribusiness in East Java through the lens of crop productivity, farmer income, supporting infrastructure, and institutional performance. A sample of 150 participants representing diverse scales of farming and geographic regions was surveyed to gather insights. Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) was employed to analyze the relationships among variables. The study confirmed positive and significant associations between crop productivity and farmer income, supporting infrastructure and crop productivity, and supporting infrastructure and institutional performance. Discriminant validity was established, and model fit indices indicated the reliability of the proposed structural model. Hypothesis testing further validated the impact of the availability of supporting infrastructure, farmer income, and plant productivity on institutional performance. The findings offer practical insights for policymakers, farmers, and stakeholders to optimize soybean agribusiness in East Java.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze what factors are most dominant in influencing the absorption of labor in the agricultural sector in West Nusa Tenggara province. The variables studied include inflation, gross regional domestic product, and provincial minimum wage. The research method used is multiple linear regression analysis with data collected through library methods and documentation techniques. The results show that inflation has a positive but insignificant effect, gross regional domestic product has a negative and insignificant effect, while the provincial minimum wage has a positive and significant effect on labor absorption in the agricultural sector in West Nusa Tenggara province. The value of the determination coefficient (R²) of 0.393 shows that 39.3% of the variability of labor absorption can be explained by the three independent variables. The study concludes that the increase in inflation and the provincial minimum wage can increase labor absorption, while the increase in gross regional domestic product tends to reduce labor absorption in the agricultural sector in West Nusa Tenggara Province.
