Abstract

This research aims to analyze the impact of village development on sustainable employment in West Seram District, focusing on strategies implemented to improve the local economy and reduce community dependence on seasonal sectors. A qualitative approach with a case study method was used in this research, involving in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, such as village heads, local business actors, and village communities. In addition, secondary data from government reports and academic literature were used to enrich the analysis. The results show that village development integrated with entrepreneurial skills development and local resource management can create more stable and sustainable employment. However, this study also found several constraints, particularly limited infrastructure and access to technology. These limitations pose a major challenge in achieving sustainable employment in rural areas. The implications of these findings suggest the importance of policies that support community capacity building and sustainable infrastructure investment to facilitate economic growth in villages. This research provides insights for policymakers and village development practitioners in designing more effective strategies for sustainable employment in rural areas.

Abstract

Investment is a financial strategy chosen by individuals to preserve and grow wealth. In recent years, investment activity in Indonesia has increased amid a downward trend in inflation. This reflects a shift in financial behaviour, where inflation is no longer seen solely as a threat but also as a driver for moving from saving to investing. As people become aware of inflation’s impact on purchasing power, they increasingly allocate funds to more profitable investment instruments. This study uses a behavioural finance approach and macroeconomic data from 2019 to 2024 to illustrate the pattern. The analysis shows that declining inflation, along with rising financial literacy, has significantly contributed to investment growth.

Abstract

Kelbo, R., Timisela, N. R., & Kembauw, E. (2024). Utilization of People's Business Credit (KUR) to increase the income of rice farmers. In: Herlinda S et al. (Eds.), Prosiding Seminar Nasional Lahan Suboptimal ke-12 Tahun 2024, Palembangg 21 Oktober 2024. (pp. 854–864). Palembang: Penerbit & Percetakan Universitas Sriwijaya (UNSRI).The purpose of this study was to analyze the utilization of KUR to increase the income of rice farmers. The research was conducted in Waimital Village, West Seram Regency. The research sample consisted of 51 KUR farmer respondents who were taken through a census. The results of a simple regression analysis of the effect of KUR utilization on income show that KUR utilization has a positive effect on income. The regression coefficient value of 0.754 means that income increases by one percent, then KUR utilization will increase by 0.754 percent. Farmers utilize KUR well, so income increases which has an impact on the KUR installment process. The results of multiple regression analysis show that the Adjusted R Square value of 0.992 means that production (X1), seed costs (X2) and labor wages (X3) can explain the income of rice farmers (Y) by 99.2%, while the remaining 0.8% is explained by other factors outside the model. The F-count value of 1975.498> F-table 2.802 means that X1, X2 and X3 simultaneously affect Y. The results of the partial test show that X1 is positive, meaning that if production increases by 1 percent, income will increase by 1.024 percent. The t-count value of 51.817> t-table 2.012 means that the production variable has a significant effect on the income of rice farmers. The seed cost is negative, meaning that if seed costs increase by 1 percent, income will decrease by 0.040 percent. The t-count value of -2.402> t-table of 2.012 means that the seed cost variable has a significant effect on the income of rice farmers. Labor wages are positive, meaning that if labor wages increase by 1 percent, income will increase by 0.027 percent. The t-count value of 2.603> t-table of 2.012 means that the labor wage variable has a significant effect on the income of rice farmers.
