Abstract

Sustainable agricultural technology is essential as a solution to the need for improving the quantity and quality of agricultural production. Reimplementing sustainable agricultural technology requires time, financial resources, energy, and efforts from all stakeholders. The adoption of sustainable agricultural technology is crucial to restoring and preserving the quality of agricultural commodities. The adoption process, which is expected to be carried out by farmers, must be accompanied by agricultural extension workers as representatives of the government. It is necessary to gather information on the extent to which the adoption process of this technology has been implemented. The Focus Group Discussion (FGD) method, as a qualitative social research approach, can serve as a tool for evaluating programs and gaining deeper insights into the collective behavioral patterns of farmers participating in these programs. The results of the FGD-based research revealed that the adoption rate among farmers has reached nearly 70%, with a success rate of 71%. The study also found that the success of farmers was significantly influenced by the contributions of related government agencies that provided sustainable agricultural technology, as well as by farmers’ own independent innovations. Moreover, the greatest success factor was the assistance provided by local agricultural extension workers

Abstract

The demand for betel nut from international markets is continuously increasing, but the agricultural supply chain for this product is quite complex and requires special handling, thus affecting the agricultural product's price. Therefore, research on the analysis of betel nut value-added supply chains is crucial to determine the amount of additional value from each stage and actor involved in the supply chain. The research was conducted in Palembayan, Agam, and Padang, West Sumatra from May to August 2022 using qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis methods with primary data from experts and farmers and secondary data from literature studies and related sources. This study found that betel nut has the potential to be exported to several countries, such as India, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates, but there are several problems hindering the distribution process. The betel nut supply chain involves several parties, ranging from suppliers to exporters, and there is no contractual relationship between them. This study also identifies criteria for betel nut suitable for export, including low water content, uniform color, large size, meeting food safety standards, and high sugar content. The process of exporting betel nut from Indonesia to India involves selection and collection, processing and packaging, transportation, and export. Thus, betel nut cultivation in Agam Regency can be effective, efficient, and sustainable by increasing the value-added at each production stage.
