Abstract

Traditional agriculture has long been an integral part of agrarian systems in various regions, yet global challenges such as climate change and urbanization demand more sustainable approaches. This study aims to explore the opportunities and challenges of integrating traditional agricultural systems with sustainable agriculture concepts through a literature review method. The findings reveal that traditional practices, such as crop rotation and organic fertilization, align with sustainability principles. However, there is a need to enhance efficiency through the application of modern technologies such as precision irrigation and integrated pest management. This integration faces significant challenges, including farmers' limited access to technology and a lack of supportive policies. The study highlights the importance of contextual approaches, farmer training, and cross-sector collaboration to optimize the potential of this integration. Thus, the findings provide relevant insights for developing sustainable agricultural policies and practices in Indonesia and other countries.

Abstract

This study investigates the interrelationships among Ethnoecological Knowledge, Climate Adaptation Strategies, and Farmer Innovation in fostering Sustainable Agriculture in Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 150 smallholder farmers across Java, Sumatra, and Sulawesi through structured questionnaires measured on a five-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS 3) to test the direct, indirect, and mediating relationships among the constructs. The findings reveal that ethnoecological knowledge significantly enhances both climate adaptation and farmer innovation, indicating that traditional ecological wisdom remains a critical foundation for modern sustainability practices. Climate adaptation strategies have a dual role—directly strengthening sustainability and indirectly fostering innovation. Furthermore, farmer innovation mediates the relationship between traditional knowledge and sustainability, serving as a transformational bridge from cultural heritage to adaptive modernization. The model explains 69% of the variance in sustainable agriculture, confirming its strong predictive power. The study provides theoretical contributions by integrating the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Dynamic Capabilities Theory (DCT) and offers practical recommendations for policymakers to strengthen local wisdom, participatory innovation, and adaptive learning in rural development. These findings underscore that Indonesia’s agricultural transformation depends not on abandoning tradition, but on revitalizing it through innovation-driven adaptation toward sustainability.
