Abstract

The adoption of Digital Agricultural Technology (AgTech) has been widely promoted as a solution to enhance productivity, efficiency, and sustainability in Indonesia’s agricultural sector. However, in regions dominated by smallholder farmers, such as West Java, Central Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, Bali, and Lampung, AgTech uptake remains limited due to infrastructural, economic, and institutional challenges. This study aims to explore the barriers and opportunities in AgTech adoption among smallholder farmers, cooperatives, and agritech stakeholders. Utilizing a qualitative research approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions involving 85 participants from diverse agricultural settings. Thematic analysis and NVivo-assisted sentiment mapping were used to analyze stakeholder perspectives. Results reveal that AgTech adoption is progressing but uneven, with persistent challenges including limited digital literacy, unreliable internet and electricity, dependence on middlemen, and misalignment between infrastructure investment and training. Successful public-private partnerships (PPPs) and targeted training programs emerged as key enablers. The findings underscore the need for integrated strategies that combine technological infrastructure with localized capacity-building and financial support. This study contributes empirical insights for policymakers, agritech developers, and development agencies aiming to advance inclusive and sustainable digital transformation in Indonesia’s agricultural landscape.

Abstract

Introduction/main objective: Gender disparities in Indonesia’s labor market continue to be a pressing issue, with women more likely to be engaged in informal employment lacking job security and benefits. This study aims to examine the structural and spatial factors that contribute to women’s informal employment vulnerability. Novelty: While previous studies have highlighted gendered labor segmentation, few have investigated how digital access, household roles, and financial inclusion interact to shape informality risks among women across rural and urban regions. Contribution: This paper fills a theoretical and empirical gap by applying a gendered and spatially disaggregated analysis to informality, incorporating multidimensional indicators that reflect human capital, digital capability, care burden, and financial access. Research method: The study uses binary logistic regression on microdata from the 2022 National Labor Force Survey (Sakernas), involving 400,009 female workers, to estimate the likelihood of informal employment based on education, ICT use, household demographics, and credit access, across rural and urban settings. Findings/results: Results show that digital access and higher education reduce the probability of informality, while large household size, presence of young children, and house ownership increase it. Credit access is associated with higher informality, particularly in rural areas, indicating its role in supporting informal enterprises rather than formal employment transitions. Conclusion: Findings highlight the need for gender-responsive and regionally targeted policies that expand digital infrastructure, childcare support, and formalization-linked financial services to reduce women’s labor market vulnerability in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze gender disparities in digital enterprise participation in Indonesia, with particular emphasis on the roles of caregiving burdens and human capital. Although digitalization is often viewed as a force that can promote equality in entrepreneurship, empirical evidence on how gender and household constraints shape participation in digital enterprises remains limited. Using microdata from the 2024 National Socioeconomic Survey (SUSENAS), digital enterprise is defined as engagement in business activities supported by the use of digital technology. A binary logistic regression model is employed to estimate the probability of digital enterprise participation, followed by rural–urban subgroup analysis to capture spatial heterogeneity. The results reveal a pronounced gender gap, with women significantly less likely to participate in digital enterprises than men after controlling for household and demographic characteristics. However, caregiving responsibilities, proxied by the presence of children under five years old, are positively associated with digital enterprise participation, suggesting that digital entrepreneurship may serve as a flexible work strategy under childcare constraints. Human capital and digital access also play important roles in shaping participation. Education increases the likelihood of digital enterprise engagement, particularly in urban areas, while handphone ownership emerges as the strongest predictor across all contexts. Rural–urban estimates further show that the gender gap is more pronounced in rural areas, reflecting the interaction between gender norms and spatial inequality.
