Abstract

This study examines the effects of seaweed production, cultivation area, selling prices, and market access on household welfare in seaweed farming communities. Seaweed is a strategic commodity in coastal economies, yet the welfare of farming households often remains vulnerable to production uncertainty, price volatility, and unequal access to markets. Using a quantitative research design, this study draws on survey data from 110 respondents to analyze the extent to which farm performance and market-related factors shape household welfare. The analytical framework includes descriptive statistics, a household welfare index, instrument reliability testing, and multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that selling price is the strongest predictor of household welfare, followed by production level, market access, and cultivation area. The model explains a substantial proportion of the variation in welfare, suggesting that improvements in farmer well-being depend not only on output expansion but also on stronger market integration and more stable marketing conditions. These results highlight the importance of price stabilization, improved access to market information, stronger farmer institutions, and better post-harvest and logistics systems. The study provides practical insight for designing rural development policies aimed at improving the resilience and welfare of coastal farming households.

Abstract

This study examines whether Indonesia's peatland moratorium policy influenced poverty outcomes in Riau Province. Enacted through Presidential Instruction No. 10/2011, the moratorium suspended the issuance of new land-use permits in primary forests and peatland areas as part of the government's commitment to environmental conservation. Using a quasi-experimental Difference-in-Differences (DiD) framework, the study designates districts with peatland coverage exceeding 100,000 hectares as the treatment group, while districts below this threshold serve as the control group. The analysis spans both the pre-moratorium period (2009–2011) and the post-moratorium period (2012–2024). The DiD coefficient of −2.407 (p = 0.228) reveals no statistically significant divergence in poverty trajectories between treated and control areas, indicating that the moratorium lacked direct, measurable effects on household welfare. This outcome underscores the inherent limitations of single-sector environmental governance in resolving the multidimensional character of poverty. Among all covariates examined, educational attainment measured as average years of schooling emerges as the most powerful determinant of poverty reduction (β = −2.468, p < 0.001). Unemployment exhibits a positive association with poverty approaching conventional significance thresholds (β = 0.444, p = 0.053), while GDP per capita shows a statistically significant negative effect. Economic growth, though directionally consistent with poverty reduction theory, does not reach significance, suggesting structural impediments to inclusive growth in the province. These findings call for complementary socioeconomic policies that address human capital deficits and labor market constraints alongside environmental conservation measures.
