Abstract

The digital transformation of auction market management plays a crucial role in addressing the high volume of chili peppers and mitigating potential inefficiencies and inaccuracies in operational processes. However, several challenges persist in implementing this transformation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the process of transitioning auction market management from conventional to digital. Using a descriptive qualitative methodology, insights were obtained from auction market managers representing five distinct groups in Kulon Progo Regency. Data collection methods included focus group discussions (FGDs), observation, and in-depth interviews. The results showed varying levels of readiness for digital adoption across the markets, with Tani Rejo Auction Market leading in digital technology utilization. Key factors influencing the pace and success of this transformation included institutional dynamics, leadership capabilities, and human resource preparedness. However, persistent farmers perceptions regarding the potential adverse impacts of digital pricing on livelihoods remained a barrier. This study outlined a phased transformation process, comprising initial communication, goal setting, system analysis, implementation of digital applications, training, socialization, evaluation, and follow-up. In addition, support from stakeholders, particularly the Agriculture Office and Bank Indonesia (BI), was identified as crucial in facilitating farmers and traders through the digitalization process, typically improving market efficiency and benefiting all stakeholders.

Abstract

This study examines electoral conflict dynamics in Indonesia's Yogyakarta Special Region, which is identified as the second-most vulnerable region nationally, with a score of 63.67% on the 2024 Election Vulnerability Index (Indeks Kerawanan Pemilu/IKP). A significant driver of this vulnerability is the recurrent conflict among political party-affiliated groups or grassroots organisations (often referred to as "underbows"), which tends to escalate during election periods. This research aims to analyse the historical context and decompose the core factors contributing to these conflicts. It also seeks to formulate a comprehensive, multi-stakeholder roadmap for conflict mitigation ahead of the 2024 general elections. Employing a qualitative, phenomenological approach, the study is theoretically grounded in Paul Wehr's (2019) conflict anatomy framework and the patron–client political-economic perspectives developed by Gerry van Klinken & Ward Berenschot (2018). Our findings reveal five key conflict triggers: historical legacies, personal rivalries, "black campaigns" by political parties, ambiguous security strategies, and entrenched political-economic interests. This research contributes to scientific knowledge by applying and extending conflict anatomy and patron-client theories to the specific context of Indonesian sub-national electoral violence, providing a nuanced understanding of its underlying mechanisms. Based on these insights, we propose practical resolutions, including enhancing civic political education, strengthening law enforcement, and strategically mapping vulnerable areas. These evidence-based recommendations are critical for fostering a more peaceful, participatory, and democratic electoral environment in Yogyakarta.
