Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of selling broiler chicken at Lakessi Market in Parepare City, map the halal product assurance system at the trader level and consumer perceptions, and assess the urgency of halal certification. This study used a qualitative method with a descriptive case study approach. Primary data were collected through observations and interviews with 20 informants consisting of 8 broiler chicken sellers, 10 consumers, and 2 government agency representatives, with data analysis conducted inductively. The results show that sales practices generally follow two patterns: supply from slaughterhouses considered trustworthy or independent slaughtering with efforts to follow Islamic slaughter procedures, basic hygiene aspects (cleanliness of equipment, covering meat with plastic, use of ice) are also considered. However, halal assurance in the field is still predominantly based on trust and visual verification by consumers, so that halal assurance cannot be fully assured without certification. The urgency of halal certification is highly assessed to strengthen regulatory certainty, consumer protection, and market confidence, but compliance is hampered by limited understanding of procedures and concerns about costs, so government assistance is a key need.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic economic values in the intervention policy of Perum Bulog on rice grain prices in Duampanua District, Pinrang Regency. Price fluctuations and the dominance of middlemen as the main buyers often force farmers to sell their harvest below the Government Purchasing Price (HPP). This condition indicates that Bulog’s role as a price-stabilizing institution has not been fully optimal in maintaining price stability and protecting farmers’ welfare. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach and field research design. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with farmers, middlemen, and Bulog officials, supported by secondary data from policy documents and relevant literature. The results show that Bulog’s interventions through HPP policies, grain procurement, and market operations have contributed to price stabilization; however, implementation remains uneven due to limited access, bureaucratic obstacles, and lack of socialization. From the perspective of Islamic economics, the values of Siddiq (honesty) and Amanah (trustworthiness) are reflected in price determination and farmer protection but have not been fully and consistently applied in practice. The value of Fathonah (wisdom and intelligence) appears in procurement and infrastructure policies but has not effectively reached remote production areas. Meanwhile, Tabligh (transparency and dissemination of information) remains weak, resulting in the incomplete realization of Maṣlaḥah (public welfare) for farmers.
