Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the role of the Agricultural Waqf Bank in enhancing food security for vulnerable communities in poverty-prone regions, with a secondary focus on the relationship between household income and food vulnerability.Design/methodology: A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a household survey of 212 vulnerable farming households in South Sumatra, Indonesia, with a qualitative conceptual analysis to develop the Agricultural Waqf Bank model. Logistic regression was applied to estimate the probability of food vulnerability based on household income, while the qualitative analysis explored the model’s design as a sustainable financing mechanism.Findings: Higher household income significantly lowers the likelihood of food vulnerability by enhancing purchasing power and access to food. However, income alone remains insufficient to address structural barriers such as unstable employment, low agricultural productivity, and limited market access. These findings highlight the potential of the Agricultural Waqf Bank model as a sustainable mechanism that integrates productive waqf assets with microfinance, capacity-building, and collective farming strategies to reduce food insecurity among vulnerable communities.Practical Implication: The proposed model provides policymakers and Islamic social finance institutions with a strategic policy design to reduce food insecurity among vulnerable communities by integrating microfinance, technical support, and community empowerment through waqf-based mechanisms.Originality/Value: This study offers a novel and integrated contribution by linking Islamic social finance with food security and community-based poverty reduction, thereby advancing theoretical discourse and informing practical policy design.

Abstract

Poverty in Indonesia is a serious problem, where the amount of meat consumption is decreasing, and the inequality of meat consumption between the rich and poor groups is increasing every year. The sacrificial worship has great potential to improve the community's economy, including livestock waqf, which can overcome the inequality of meat consumption. This study aims to analyze the initiation of social financing facilities through CWLQ to alleviate poverty in Indonesia. The research method used is panel data analysis by combining data from 34 provinces in Indonesia in the period 2019-2023. The independent variables used are sacrificial production, poverty in the previous period, economic growth, HDI, and the Gini coefficient, while the dependent variable is the poverty rate. The results of the analysis of sacrificial production, poverty in the previous period, economic growth, HDI, and the Gini coefficient will provide insight into the influence of economic and social factors in poverty alleviation efforts. This research is expected to contribute to developing more effective waqf-based policies in Indonesia, especially in supporting the national agenda to reduce poverty. These findings can also be a reference for policymakers and social and financial institutions designing sustainable CWLQ management strategies that positively impact the welfare of the wider community.
