Abstract

This study is motivated by the need to enhance the effectiveness of agricultural extension activities through accurate spatial data utilization. The objective of this research is to examine the influence of polygon-based Geographic Information Systems (GIS) on agricultural extension activities in Cirebon Regency. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed using a survey method involving 64 agricultural extension officers selected through stratified random sampling. The data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that polygon-based GIS usage simultaneously has a significant effect on agricultural extension activities, with an R² value of 0.629. Partially, the analytical aspect of GIS shows a positive and significant effect, while the technical, functional, and perceived benefit aspects exhibit positive but insignificant effects. These findings suggest that spatial analytical capability is the most critical factor in improving extension effectiveness. The study concludes that the successful implementation of polygon-based GIS depends not merely on the availability of technology but also on the analytical capacity of extension officers. The implications of this study highlight the importance of strengthening spatial analysis competencies to support data-driven, targeted, and sustainable agricultural extension planning.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of digitalized reporting on the performance evaluation of agricultural extension workers at the Department of Agriculture of Cirebon Regency. A quantitative explanatory research design with a survey approach was employed, involving 64 extension workers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires measuring six dimensions of digitalized reporting, including system usability, data accessibility, data accuracy and completeness, time and labor efficiency, technical support and training, and user satisfaction, with performance evaluation as the dependent variable. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that digitalized reporting significantly influences performance evaluation collectively, explaining 61.7 percent of its variation. Among the dimensions, system ease of use and user satisfaction showed positive and significant effects, indicating that user-friendly and widely accepted systems are crucial for effective performance assessments. In contrast, data accessibility, data accuracy and completeness, time and labor efficiency, and technical support and training did not have significant impacts, although technical support and training approached significance, suggesting potential for improvement. These findings highlight that the practical effect of digitalized reporting is mediated by user adoption and satisfaction, emphasizing the importance of human–system interaction in agricultural service delivery. Based on the results, recommendations include enhancing system usability and user satisfaction, optimizing technical support and training programs, and encouraging extension workers to improve their digital competencies. The study provides empirical evidence for policymakers and practitioners to develop effective digital performance management in the agricultural sector.
