Abstract

Through this research, the phenomenon of agrarian twilight in rural West java was analyzed by the interactions of agrarian relations, the exclusion process, and actors that involved due to the agrarian history. With the implementation of a critical paradigm by multi method of qualitative research (historical sociology and sociological history) and case study approach, this research releases a deep study of space, temporality and contention so that it can reveal a fundamental problems inequality of agrarian structures in rural West Java from the era colonial up to the present situation. This research was conducted for six months starting from May to October 2018, primary data were collected by in-depth interviews with peasants as key informants of this research and supported by various secondary research data and other relevant documents. The data thereafter analyzed by means of three phases, as interpretative, empirical, and dialectical technique. The results showed that the erosion of the agricultural sector by the industrial and service sectors were complemented by the shrinking of agriculture land due to the conversion of agriculture land to non-agriculture. Historically, agrarian twilight was an alteration from the land accumulation by corporations that further lead to the exclusion of peasants from their land, with the period of time from colonial to the present situation. Unequal access to land, increasing land markets, power, and capital were the triggered. This situations conduced that peasants who directly faced changes in rural agrarian structure were cornered to the most vulnerable position. This condition shows the description of agrarian twilight in rural West Java.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the financial feasibility of the ground coffee production business undertaken by coffee farmers and processors by applying local innovations at the cultivation, post-harvest handling, and coffee processing stages in the coffee production centre of Garut Regency. This study used a quantitative approach to provide a comprehensive understanding of the feasibility of the ground coffee business with local innovations applied by coffee farmers and processors in Garut Regency. Local innovations in coffee production include pruning techniques, grafting, solar dryer dome technology for herbal coffee making, the use of local roasting machines, and the utilization of coffee waste into value-added products such as ceramics, organic fertilizer, and dodol. Quantitative analysis of coffee processing business feasibility based on NPV value of Rp 38,394,163, Gross B/C 1.08, Net B/C 1.25, IRR 17.73 percent, payback period 7.7. These results showed that the business carried out by ground coffee processors in the production centre area is feasible. These results of the sensitivity analysis show that an increase in the price of coffee fruit raw materials at a limit of 16.67 percent and a decrease in ground coffee production at a limit of 11.37percent still produces a positive value and the business is still feasible. These results of the switching value analysis explain that the tolerance limit for the increase in the price of coffee fruit raw materials can be tolerated if the rise is no more than 26.66 percent and the decrease in ground coffee production does not exceed 7.023percent if it exceeds within 1 year then the business is not feasible.

Abstract

The conversion of agricultural land in Karawang Regency, particularly in Sukamakmur Village, has significantly disrupted farmers' livelihoods. This study examines the socio-economic changes farmers experienced before and after exclusion from their cultivated lands. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through interviews with ten informants across different land tenure classes, alongside insights from government officials and stakeholders. The findings reveal that policies favoring industrial development, speculative land sales, and inadequate irrigation infrastructure have driven widespread land conversion. These forces compelled farmers to sell their land, resulting in shifts in land ownership, reduced incomes, and altered livelihoods. Many displaced farmers became tenants, sharecroppers, or laborers, while others left agriculture entirely. Low education and skill deficits further hindered their ability to transition to industrial jobs, exacerbating inequality and poverty. This study highlights the systemic marginalization of farmers and calls for policies to protect their rights and promote equitable rural development.

Abstract

Hanjeli (Coix lacryma-jobi L.) is a local cereal crop with strong potential as an alternative food source and economic commodity rooted in local wisdom. However, the development of hanjeli agribusiness still faces several challenges, such as limited resources, suboptimal marketing strategies, and low public awareness. This study aims to evaluate the economic feasibility and formulate sustainable business strategies for hanjeli agribusiness at the Pantastik Cooperative in Wado, Sumedang. A case study approach was employed, combining a qualitative method using the Sustainable Business Model Canvas (SBMC) framework and a quantitative approach through farm feasibility analysis. The results indicate that the hanjeli business model demonstrates strengths in its value proposition, particularly in delivering eco-social benefits such as farmer empowerment, biodiversity conservation, and environmental preservation. Nevertheless, the model also encounters critical barriers in distribution channels, limited access to capital, and human resource capacity. The feasibility analysis reveals that hanjeli farming is economically viable, with an R/C ratio of 2.4 indicating profitability, and a break-even point (BEP) of 128 kg per production cycle. This study highlights significant opportunities to advance sustainable hanjeli agribusiness through the strategic integration of economic, social, and environmental dimensions. The findings imply the need for collaborative efforts among government stakeholders, cooperatives, the private sector, and communities to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of inclusive local agribusiness systems.

Abstract

The risk management process begins with identifying potential risks that may occur in a business. Greenhouse X is an urban farming enterprise in Bandung City whose supply of water spinach (kangkung) has not been able to optimally meet market demand. Greenhouse X also partners with other farmers to help fulfill supply needs, but supplier partners are often inconsistent in meeting supply demands. There are risks in water spinach production that lead to uncertainty in supply quantity, which can harm the business. This research aims to analyze production risk events in hydroponic water spinach at Greenhouse X and its supplier partners. The study uses a qualitative design with a case study method analyzed descriptively. The results identify 19 production risk events with varying severity levels. The highest-risk events with a serious impact (Si=9) are plant death during growth and root rot. Other high-impact risks include harvest delays and unmet product quantity were identified as having extreme impacts (Si=8).

Abstract

Indonesia’s policy of regional expansion, initiated after the 1998 reform and formalized through Law No. 22/1999, was intended to address regional development inequalities. However, it has often led to land-use changes that pose risks to agricultural livelihoods, especially in newly established regions such as Pangandaran Regency. This research investigates the dimensions of livelihood vulnerability, the roles of institutional and policy frameworks, the composition of livelihood capital, the sustainability of livelihoods, and the prevalence of poverty in Pangandaran. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach, the study surveyed 378 farming households across the Mangunjaya and Padaherang Sub-Districts. The analysis reveals that sensitivity is the most dominant factor in livelihood vulnerability; environmental legal frameworks are the strongest among institutional and policy elements; financial capital is the most prevalent form of livelihood asset; land-use-related ecological factors are the most vital to sustainability; and housing conditions emerge as the key indicator of poverty. These findings emphasize the intricate interplay between institutional change and rural livelihoods, and they point to the critical need for cohesive policies that promote sustainable agriculture amid the ongoing challenges of regional development.
