Abstract

The agribusiness sector plays a strategic role in producing food for the community. The agribusiness sector consists of several interrelated subsystems. When a disruption occurs in one subsystem, it will affect the other subsystems. The purpose of this study was to analyze the performance of the agribusiness subsystem in vegetable farming in Kehiran Village, East Sentani District, Jayapura Regency. Based on the results of the study, it shows various agribusiness index scores, namely: the production input procurement subsystem was 15.80, the farming subsystem was 19.90, and the marketing subsystem was 5.80. All four subsystems are in the good category. The service and support subsystem index was 4.55, indicating a poor category. The agribusiness system index score in vegetable farming was 13.486. The maximum value of the agribusiness system was 18.090, so the performance of the agribusiness system in vegetable farming was in the poor category. Based on this, the development of vegetable farming in Kehiran Village must be supported by other aspects. For example, ease of access to capital loans for farmers, intensity of extension activities, formation of farming cooperatives, and the active role of farmer groups as a means of learning and a source of information for farmers.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the factors influencing the income of indigenous Papuan vendors at Pharaa Sentani market, Jayapura Regency, in line with Law No. 21 of 2001 on Special Autonomy, which seeks to improve Papuan welfare through economic empowerment. Methodology: A quantitative approach was applied using multiple linear regression analysis. Primary data were collected from 49 vendor respondents through questionnaires. The independent variables analyzed include business capital, length of business, working hours, and education. Results: The analysis shows that business capital, length of business, and education have a significant positive effect on income, contributing 8%, 12.5%, and 30.5%, respectively. Meanwhile, working hours did not significantly influence income, accounting for only 5.8%. Together, the four variables explain 46.8% of income variation, while 53.2% is affected by external factors such as market conditions, social networks, and product quality. Conclusion: The findings highlight that education and business capital are the most decisive factors for income growth. Longer working hours and years in business alone are insufficient without adequate capital and knowledge. Limitations: The study is limited to 49 respondents from one market, which may restrict generalization. Other factors such as cultural norms and supply chain constraints were not considered. Contribution: This research adds to the literature on indigenous economic empowerment and provides recommendations for policymakers to enhance access to education, training, capital, and market infrastructure for Papuan vendors.
