Abstract

In general, small-scale vegetable farmers experience problems in improving the safety and quality of vegetables for supplying high-class consumers in modern retailers. Farmer Group and/or Cooperative (FGC) should be able to assist its members to meet the relevant provisions of modern retail on product specifications, delivery terms, and internal business requirements. This study proposed an agri-food supply chain (ASC) model that involves the corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities to enhance the business skills of the FGC as supplier of modern retailer. Multi-objective optimization programming is developed to determine the amount and timing of supply, level of farmers training skills, quality improvement target, and the CSR total cost. The results show that the proposed model can be used to determine the priority of programs in order to empower farmers' groups as modern retail suppliers.

Abstract

Background: There is a high demand for wheat flour, but the supply of it is reduced due to high prices and world oats availability because of climate change and conflicts. Cassava is processed through a fermentation process into mocaf flour and can be used as an alternative substitute for wheat flour. However, the availability of cassava has decreased in the last five years. Purpose: This research aims to determine the factors that influence the availability of cassava by considering sustainability. Design/methodology/approach: This research uses primary data from the Mocaf agro-industry and secondary data from the Central Bureau of Statistics website, as well as previous research. Supply chain management is used in this study with a model simulation of a dynamic system. The simulation model begins by creating a Causal Loop Diagram (CLD), building a mathematical model to formulate relationships between related entities, developing a Stock Flow Diagram (SFD), and drawing the model with Stella Software.Findings/Result: The results show that the factors that influence the availability of cassava as raw material for mocaf are harvest growth and an increase in the purchasing price of cassava at the farmer level. The simulation results show a substitution policy of 30% and cassava harvest growth of 1% every year, with the total availability of cassava being 17 million tons. The sustainability factor which refers to the simulation results, namely from the environmental dimension, can reduce CO2 emissions. The social dimension is the absorption of rural labor and home industry labor, utilization of marginal land, increasing income, and realizing food security. The economic dimension is the added value and durability of the mocaf.Conclusion: The factors that influence the availability of cassava as raw material for mocaf are harvest growth and an increase in the purchasing price of cassava at the farmer level. Implementation of the development scenario the availability of cassava can be fulfilled.Originality/value (State of the art): Substitution policy for mocaf and cassava harvest growth can increase the availability of cassava and implementation of the development scenario (substitution policy of 30% mocaf and cassava harvest growth of 1%) the availability of cassava can be fulfilled. Keywords: mocaf, model simulation, cassava, supply chain management, dynamic system

Abstract

The pandemic has significantly impacted many shops closing and stopped production by artisans in the leather bag & shoe industry in Tanggulangin Sidoarjo. The development of e-commerce ecosystem studies shows that a deep understanding of the interactions between actors in this ecosystem can significantly improve online sales performance for SMEs. This study aims to identify the components and relationships between elements in the e-commerce ecosystem to support online sales in SMEs. This study uses the Delphi method with structured and in-depth interviews with several e-commerce SME experts. The components of the e-commerce ecosystem analyzed are marketing, platform, communication, payment, shipping & logistics, and productivity using descriptive analysis and framework visualization. The researchers proposed improving industry support components such as digital marketing training institutions, product photography and packaging design services, and product content creation services in the e-commerce ecosystem. This study is limited to the leather bag and shoe industry in Tanggulangin, Sidoarjo, which may restrict the generalizability of its findings to other sectors or regions. Additionally, the reliance on a small number of e-commerce experts and the lack of longitudinal testing for proposed solutions leave aspects like dynamic interrelationships and long-term sustainability underexplored.
