Abstract

The rice price fluctuations are a significant challenge for farmers in Indonesia, including in Manokwari, West Papua, which plays a strategic role as a food granary. This research aims to (1) identify the various adaptation strategies of rice farmers in Manokwari Regency in facing rice price fluctuations; (2) analyze internal factors (such as social capital, access to resources, farmer household characteristics); and (3) analyze external factors (such as government policies, institutional support, local market conditions) that influence these adaptation decisions. This research addresses the gap in in-depth studies on specific adaptation dynamics in Manokwari. Using a mixed-methods approach with a sequential exploratory design, qualitative data (in-depth interviews, observations) and quantitative data (questionnaire surveys) were collected from rice farmers in Prafi District. Data were analyzed thematically for qualitative data and using descriptive statistics and logistic regression for quantitative data. The research findings indicate that farmers adopt various adaptation strategies such as income diversification, the use of new technologies, and changes in cultivation practices. Influential external factors include government policies related to prices, market conditions, and institutional support. Significant internal factors include adaptive capacity, social capital, access to resources, as well as literacy levels and trust in others, which proved to be highly significant in strategy adoption. Price fluctuations have a tangible impact on the socio-economic aspects of farmers, pressuring income and welfare. This research concludes that enhancing farmers' adaptive capacity requires holistic interventions that comprehensively address internal and external factors.

Abstract

Environmentally friendly pest control in chili cultivation is a crucial strategy to minimize the negative effects of chemical pesticide use on ecosystems and human health. However, farmers’ adoption of this innovation remains relatively low, especially in Desay Village, Prafi District, Manokwari Regency. This study aimed to analyze the adoption process of environmentally friendly pest control practices, identify the influencing factors, and examine the relationship between specific innovation characteristics and the level of farmer acceptance. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data from questionnaires distributed to 45 chili farmers with qualitative data gathered through in-depth interviews and field observations. Descriptive analysis was used to identify adoption patterns, and Spearman rank correlation was applied to assess relationships between innovation characteristics and adoption stages. The results showed that despite general awareness and interest, adoption levels remained low. Major barriers included perceived risks, limited resources, and insufficient technical support. Characteristics such as compatibility, trialability, and observability were significantly and positively correlated with adoption. Farmers were more likely to adopt innovations that suited local conditions, were easy to test, and offered visible benefits. These findings highlight the need to strengthen technical assistance, implement field demonstrations, and promote adaptive education strategies that align with local farming contexts to improve adoption of sustainable pest control innovations.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh sales growth, current ratio, firm size, dan return on assets (ROA) terhadap struktur modal pada perusahaan consumer goods yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia periode 2020–2024. Variabel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini meliputi sales growth sebagai indikator pertumbuhan perusahaan, current ratio sebagai ukuran likuiditas, firm size sebagai gambaran besar kecilnya perusahaan, serta ROA sebagai indikator profitabilitas. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari laporan keuangan perusahaan sektor consumer goods dibidang konsumsi primer yang dipublikasikan secara resmi melalui Bursa Efek Indonesia tahun 2020-2024. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah analisis regresi linear berganda untuk menguji pengaruh dari masing-masing variabel independen (X) terhadap variabel dependen (Y) struktur modal. Sampel penelitian ditentukan menggunakan metode purposive sampling sesuai dengan kriteria tertentu yang telah ditetapkan. Dari hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara simultan sales growth, current ratio, firm size, dan ROA berpengaruh signifikan terhadap struktur modal. Sales growth berpengaruh positif terhadap struktur modal, Current ratio berpengaruh negatif terhadap struktur modal, Firm size berpengaruh positif terhadap struktur modal dan ROA berpengaruh negatif terhadap struktur modal. Hal ini dapat memberikan sebuah gambaran mengenai faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi struktur modal. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menunjukkan bahwa setiap variabel memiliki pengaruh yang berbeda terhadap struktur modal, baik secara parsial maupun secara simultan. Selain itu, penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan kontribusi bagi perusahaan dalam pengambilan sebuah keputusan keuangan serta dapat menjadi referensi bagi penelitian selanjutnya.
