Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the Government Purchase Price (HPP) policy in XXX Regency, a rice production center in Aceh Province. The method used in this study is the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) approach to assess farmer satisfaction and perceptions of the Government Purchase Price policy. The results show that most indicators have a high level of importance and performance, such as the availability of fertilizers and pesticides, land productivity, facilities and infrastructure, the availability of extension workers, and government program support. These factors are the main strengths that need to be maintained to maintain the sustainability of farming businesses. However, several important aspects were also found to have low performance, such as the price of grain according to the Government Purchase Price, transparency and speed of absorption by Bulog, access to financing, and suboptimal farmer institutions. This indicates the need for more attention to the agricultural marketing system and empowerment of farmer institutions to improve the welfare and competitiveness of farmers in XXX Regency.

Abstract

Drying is a critical post-harvest stage for coffee, as it directly determines the final quality, economic value, and ultimately, farmers' income. Most farmers in Aceh Tengah and Bener Meriah still rely on conventional methods, such as drying coffee directly on tarps or non-standard racks. These practices often result in high moisture content, significant physical defects, and consequently, lower selling prices. This study analyzes the effectiveness of a "Green MSME" drying rack constructed from wood and food-grade mesh in improving coffee quality and farmer income, while also evaluating its alignment with sustainability and circular economy principles. Using a descriptive-comparative quantitative approach, the research involved 30 farmers applying four different drying methods. The results demonstrated that the Green MSME technology yielded the best coffee quality, with an average moisture content of 11.2% and a defect rate of 6.1%, which is superior to tarpaulin drying (12.8% and 11.3%, respectively). The added value for Green MSME coffee reached IDR 77,500 per kg (9.9% higher than the traditional method), leading to an income increase of 1.19% to 13% per 500 kg of dry beans. Furthermore, the Green MSME model supports sustainability through greater energy efficiency, waste reduction, the use of eco-friendly materials, and enhanced potential for quality certification. In conclusion, this innovation has proven to be feasible, economical, and consistent with green production principles, making it a viable model for widespread replication to develop the smallholder coffee agribusiness in Aceh.
