Abstract

Agriculture remains a central pillar of Aceh’s economy, yet the sector has not experienced substantial structural transformation despite post conflict recovery efforts. Persistent issues such as traditional cultivation practices, weak institutions, limited youth participation, and uneven access to production resources continue to constrain rural livelihoods. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of agricultural transformation, identify key factors shaping local economic resilience, and examine community based strategies that support sustainable agricultural development in a post conflict context. The research applied a qualitative descriptive approach grounded in the Sustainable Livelihood Framework. Fieldwork was conducted in Banda Aceh and Aceh Besar from May to September 2025 through in depth interviews, focus group discussions, and participatory observation involving twenty five purposively selected informants. Data were analyzed thematically using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, supported by triangulation and member checking to ensure validity. The findings show that transformation in Aceh remains uneven and is shaped more by administrative reforms than by changes in farming practices. Limited human capital, low youth engagement, and weak social cohesion slow the adoption of innovation. Institutional and financial constraints further restrict resilience, with farmers facing difficulties in accessing credit and formal support. At the same time, informal cooperation and customary leadership continue to play important roles in sustaining livelihoods. The study concludes that sustainable transformation is most effective when driven by community institutions that integrate human, social, and institutional capital. The research contributes to the literature by extending the Sustainable Livelihood Framework through the recognition of customary governance as a form of institutional capital in post conflict agrarian settings.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has fundamentally changed the religious communication patterns of Muslims, including the practice of pulpit preaching, which has long been understood as an authoritative and sacred space for religious communication. This study aims to analyze the transformation of congregational communication patterns in receiving pulpit preaching in the digital era and examine how the position of the pulpit is reconstructed in relation to new media. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation, conducted in several large mosques in Lhokseumawe City. The results show that pulpit preaching is still maintained as a source of religious legitimacy, especially among adults and the elderly. However, the younger generation tends to combine physical presence in the mosque with the consumption of digital preaching through social media platforms. A key finding of this study is the emergence of a hybrid communication pattern, namely the integration of oral preaching from the pulpit with the distribution and amplification of messages through digital media. This pattern marks a shift in preaching from one-way communication to multi-channel dialogic communication that is participatory and interactive. Theoretically, this research enriches Islamic communication studies by integrating a transactional communication approach and uses and gratifications theory in the context of contemporary da'wah. Practically, these findings emphasize the importance of digital literacy for preachers and da'wah institutions to ensure that da'wah from the pulpit remains relevant, has broad reach, and fosters community engagement in a digital society.
