Abstract

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in Indonesia's economy but is currently facing an ageing problem with low participation from the younger generation. This decline is influenced by several factors, including a pervasive negative view of agriculture, limited access to capital and technology, and a lack of encouragement or incentives for young farmers. This research aims to find out what factors make the younger generation reluctant to enter agriculture, how interested young people are in entering the world of agriculture, and what efforts or solutions can be made so that young people are interested in agriculture. This research applies an analytical descriptive method that focuses on current issues that are relevant. Information was obtained from reliable sources, then compiled, analysed and interpreted. Data sources include literature from related journals, theses, and other valid references. The results show that the younger generation has great potential to contribute significantly to the development of agriculture in Indonesia. They have favourable characteristics, such as creativity, innovation, and strong knowledge in technology. However, this potential has not been fully utilised. Therefore, efforts are needed to stimulate the involvement and contribution of the younger generation in advancing the agricultural sector in Indonesia. Such measures include but are not limited to 1) Increasing public awareness of the importance of agriculture. 2)Improving the access of the younger generation to capital and technology. 3)Providing incentives or encouragement for young farmers. 4)Creating an enabling environment for the development of the agricultural sector. It is hoped that these efforts will mobilise greater participation and contribution from the younger generation towards the development of the agricultural sector in Indonesia. This has the potential to increase agricultural productivity, achieve food self-sufficiency, and improve the overall welfare of society.

Abstract

Social media is a platform where everyone can access it, to share moments and information. Nowadays almost everyone has social media for entertainment or to publish something. over time social media is used as a medium to promote products from a business. This is because social media can reach a wider market at a more affordable cost, social media can also be applied to the agricultural sector, especially to educate the younger generation to be more familiar with agriculture and can pursue agriculture, because currently the majority of farmers in Indonesia are more than 40 years old Where, it is very rare to find young people who are involved in agriculture due to lack of education. Even though we can maximise agricultural yields by utilising technology which is currently very sophisticated, various facilities can be obtained but there are still many who think that farming is very difficult and the benefits are not much, we as the next generation of the nation should care about this, we can contribute to the success of agricultural progress in Indonesia by sharing information about agriculture and inviting the public to realise the importance of the agricultural sector so that social media becomes a very important thing to support the progress of agriculture in Indonesia.

This article explores the utilisation of hydroponic technology in vegetable cultivation among the younger generation. It aims to determine the factors that influence the interest of the younger generation in using hydroponic technology for vegetable cultivation, as well as the challenges, advantages and disadvantages of the method. In addition, it examines the potential business opportunities associated with the use of hydroponic technology. The research methodology used in this study involved the use of secondary data and data analysis techniques. The research findings show that there are several factors that influence the interest of the younger generation in utilising hydroponic technology for vegetable cultivation. These factors include environmental concerns, limited space availability, and the desire for organic and sustainable food production. Furthermore, the research revealed that hydroponic technology offers various advantages, such as efficient water usage and higher yields. However, it also poses certain challenges, including initial investment costs and the need for proper maintenance.

Abstract

The digital economy is currently growing around the world, including Indonesia, and is characterised by an increase in the number of Internet users. In early 2021, the number of Internet users in Indonesia reached 202.6 million, an increase of 15.5 per cent or 27 million compared to January 2020. Especially when the COVID-19 pandemic has affected service mechanisms and caused changes in consumer behaviour. Economic actors need to innovate new consumer habits from traditional buying and selling models to adapt to e-commerce. The benefits of digitalisation for Indonesia's economic development include increased market share, ease of transactions, increased production, easier payments, and more diverse promotions. On the other hand, the disadvantages include a lack of labour absorption and vulnerability to fraud and plagiarism. In addition, the financial sector, agricultural sector, cultural sector, tourism, and creative industry have the potential to grow further in the digital era. The Millennial Farmer application is an innovative solution that aims to increase productivity and efficiency in agriculture. By capitalising on the development of information technology and smartphone penetration among millennial farmers, the app is designed to provide easy and quick access to the latest information, best farming techniques, and other resources that can improve agricultural yields. The utilisation of e-commerce in the marketing of agricultural products has also brought about many changes. The development of the Millennial Farmer App is expected to help farmers overcome challenges in modern agriculture, such as climate change, market fluctuations, and the constant need for innovation. By bringing together traditional expertise and modern technology, this application becomes an effective tool in advancing the agricultural sector, encouraging economic growth in rural areas, and creating sustainability in food supply.
