Abstract

The digital economic transformation and the implementation of Industry 4.0 have become a primary urgency in accelerating regional development, particularly in enhancing digital connectivity, local economic development, and the quality of human resources (HR) in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the role of technology and Industry 4.0 in driving digital-based economic progress in Gorontalo City and to evaluate its effectiveness in three main aspects: digital connectivity, local economy, and HR strengthening. Using a mixed-method approach with an explanatory design, data were collected through questionnaires, observations, documentation, and focus group discussions (FGD) from 20 respondents consisting of local government agencies (OPD), the public, and relevant stakeholders. The analysis was conducted using the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) method and the qualitative technique of the Miles & Huberman model. The results show that the impact of technology on the local economy and digital connectivity was deemed quite effective, although improvements are still needed, particularly in infrastructure and access equity. Meanwhile, the strengthening of HR and digital skills-based employment is still categorized as less effective and remains a top priority for improvement. Therefore, it is recommended that the government expand digital training, strengthen cross-sector partnerships, and promote inclusive policies to ensure that digital transformation progresses equitably and sustainably.

Abstract

The agricultural sector is an important sector in a region because it is the main milestone of the community's economy, including in Buol Regency. This study aims to analyze and map the distribution of the agricultural base sector in Buol Regency with the help of Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis. The research method used is a quantitative descriptive approach with Location Quotient (LQ) analysis techniques, localization analysis, and specialization analysis. The analysis is supported by primary data and secondary data obtained from various sources, both government and private agencies. The results of the LQ analysis show that rice fields and corn are the main commodities that have the widest distribution of advantages, while other commodities tend to be superior in certain regions. Localization analysis shows that all agricultural commodities have a relatively even distribution pattern and are not concentrated in one area. Meanwhile, the analysis of specialization shows that only paddy rice is classified as a special commodity, while other commodities have not shown a high level of regional specialization. Thus, it can be concluded that paddy rice is a commodity based on the agricultural sector in Buol Regency which is spread almost throughout the sub-district.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze various factors that influence Corporate Sustainability Performance in creating a green strategy for companies in the agricultural sector, particularly Crude Palm Oil (CPO) companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data from 11 Crude Palm Oil (CPO) agricultural companies during the 2021–2024 period, resulting in a total of 44 data observations. Data analysis was conducted using multiple regression with panel data. The results show that institutional ownership, independent commissioners, Return on Assets (ROA), and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) jointly have a significant effect on Corporate Sustainability Performance in creating a green strategy for agricultural CPO companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, with a coefficient of determination of 40.6367%. The remaining 59.3633% is explained by other variables not examined in this study, such as firm size, managerial ownership, firm age, environmental performance, and corporate social responsibility disclosure policy. Partially, the findings reveal that institutional ownership has a positive but insignificant effect, independent commissioners have a negative but insignificant effect, Return on Assets (ROA) has a positive and significant effect, and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) has a negative and significant effect.

Abstract

Community empowerment through training in food agribusiness product processing techniques is a crucial strategy for increasing the added value of agricultural commodities while promoting economic self-sufficiency in rural areas. This activity was conducted in Bontula Village, Asparaga Subdistrict, Gorontalo Regency, with the aim of improving the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the community in processing corn is the village's dominant crop into value-added products such as corn chips. The methods used in this program included theoretical sessions on food agribusiness, hands-on processing training, and competency evaluations through pre-tests and post-tests. The results showed an increase in the average community competency score from 54.80% (categorized as fair) to 76.60% (categorized as good). Knowledge increased from 60.83% to 81.33%, skills from 51.56% to 64.89%, and attitudes and commitment to adopting information from 50.00% to 82.00%. The paired sample t-test indicated a statistically significant result (p 0.05), confirming a notable difference before and after the training. This program demonstrates the effectiveness of locally based food processing training in enhancing community capacity and supporting agribusiness development in rural areas.Keywords: Empowerment; Food Agribusiness; Corn; Training; Bontula Village
