Abstract

This research develops and applies the implementation of Good Agriculture Practices to red dragon fruit farming, influencing factors, and recommendations for providing extension materials to increase its implementation. Implementing Good Agricultural Practices must be by Control Points, Standard Operating Procedures, Plant Pest Control, filling out workbooks, and re-registration, which are obligations that farmers must carry out after obtaining a Good Agricultural Practices certificate. In this study, as many as 62 red dragon fruit farmers certified as Good Agriculture Practices were selected as a whole or total sampling. The Likert scale is used to analyze the level of implementation of Good Agriculture Practices. Logistic Regression Analysis is used to see the factors that influence the level of implementation of Good Agriculture Practices. Efforts to increase the implementation of Good Agricultural Practices through rankings. The research results show that (1) the implementation of Good Agriculture Practices in red dragon fruit farming is sufficient; (2) factors that influence the implementation of Good Agriculture Practices are the variables of farming experience, perception of production quantity, and perception of selling price. (3) recommendations for increasing the implementation of Good Agriculture Practices in red dragon fruit farming in Pesanggaran District can be done by providing material on priority efforts starting from Mandatory Control Points, Very Green Control Points, filling out workbooks, implementing Plant Pest Control, re-registering, Points Control Recommendations, and implementation of Standard Operating Procedures.

Abstract

The increasing consumption of broiler chicken meat in society indicates a significant shift in consumption patterns. This highlights the importance of understanding the factors influencing consumer preferences for this product. The study aimed to analyze consumer preferences by identifying the most critical attributes of broiler chicken meat and the preferred attribute combinations in traditional markets of Magelang City. This research was conducted from December 2023 to January 2024 in conventional markets in Magelang City. The research location was chosen because Magelang City has five traditional markets, four of which sell broiler chicken meat, and the increasing broiler chicken production in the city in 2023. The study employed a survey method, with a non-probability sampling approach using accidental sampling, as determined through Lemeshow’s formula. This formula was used to determine a representative sample size based on the desired confidence level and margin of error. The study involved 400 respondents whose characteristics were analyzed based on gender, age, occupation, income, number of family members, and food expenditure. The collected data included both primary and secondary data. Primary data were gathered through interviews and offline questionnaires, while secondary data were obtained from institutions such as BPS and relevant journals. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and Conjoint analysis. The results of the study showed that (1) consumers prefer broiler chicken meat priced at Rp32,000 – Rp35,000, with white skin color, meat weighing >1.8 kg, fresh condition, and carcasses cut into eight pieces; (2) the relative order of importance most considered by consumers in buying broiler chicken meat is color, form, price, size, and carcass cut size.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the vertical market integration of cayenne pepper in Gorontalo Province. The sampling method is based on the availability of cayenne pepper price data over a period of 4 years (2017 to 2020). The type of data source in this study is secondary data, namely data on the price of cayenne pepper at the producer, wholesaler, and consumer levels. The analytical method used in this study is  quantitative. The quantitative method uses cointegration analysis and ECM (error correction model). The results show that the cayenne pepper market in Gorontalo Province has been integrated iboth i!in the short and long term between farmers and marketing institutions/ wholesalers, marketing institutions/ wholesalers and consumers, and between consumers and farmers. That is, if there is a change in the price of cayenne pepper at the consumer level, it will be transmitted to the level of marketing institutions/wholesalers. And if there is a change in the price of cayenne pepper at the wholesaler level, it will be transmitted to farmers. Then the market between consumers and farmers is integrated based on the model used.

Abstract

Productivity in lowland rice farming within dryland archipelagic regions is often constrained by imprecise input management rather than a lack of technology. Farmers in Kupang Regency typically employ conventional intensification by increasing fertilizer inputs without considering marginal efficiency, leading to cost escalation. This study aims to deconstruct the structure of input usage, analyze allocative inefficiency, and formulate strategies for managerial redesign. A survey was conducted on 80 rice farmers in Noelbaki Village, Central Kupang District, selected using Proportional Random Sampling. Data were analyzed using the Cobb-Douglas production function and the ratio of Marginal Value Product (MVP) to input price. The findings reveal a significant efficiency gap: seeds have an elasticity of 0.418 but are underutilized, while fertilizers have an elasticity of 0.499 but are overutilized. The scale of operation is at decreasing return to scale (0.967). This study recommends reallocating budgets from fertilizer expenditure to high-quality seeds and strengthening farmers' financial literacy as managerial innovations to achieve economic sustainability and food security in East Nusa Tenggara

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the efficiency, competitiveness, constraints-opportunities, and strategic position of an integrated farming system combining beef cattle, rice, and maize on suboptimal land in Minahasa Regency. Suboptimal land characteristics such as low pH, poor drainage, and low soil fertility require efficient and innovative farming approaches. Integrated farming systems offer a solution by integrating crop and livestock sub-systems in a single business unit that supports each other and utilizes resources optimally. The methods used include data envelopment analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) approaches to measure technical and economic efficiency, and policy analysis matrix (PAM) to evaluate competitiveness. The results showed high technical and economic efficiency, with efficiency values above 0.80, and private cost ratio (PCR) and domestic resource cost ratio (DRCR) values < 1. This indicates the feasibility of the business privately and socially without any policy distortions. Factors that support efficiency include the use of crop waste as animal feed and livestock waste as organic fertilizer, as well as income diversification that reduces business risk. However, challenges such as high start-up costs, limited market access, and suboptimal production technology are still obstacles. Based on the SWOT analysis and IE Matrix, the system is in the “grow and develop” strategy position, showing great potential for development. Thus, this system is worthy of being used as a model for sustainable agricultural development based on high efficiency and competitiveness.

Abstract

Coffee is a leading Indonesian plantation commodity vital to international trade. However, export performance to major destinations fluctuates due to global market dynamics and rising competition. This study aims to describe Indonesian coffee export volume trends to major destination countries and to analyze their competitiveness. The analyzed markets include the United States, Malaysia, Egypt, India, Italy, and Japan. The study employs Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Export Competitiveness Index (ECI), Trade Specialization Index (TSI), and Constant Market Share (CMS) using secondary data (1991–2024) under HS Code 0901 from the UN Comtrade database. Results indicate that export volumes fluctuate with varying trends across markets. RCA findings show that Indonesian coffee generally maintains a comparative advantage in most destinations. However, ECI results reveal weak competitive performance in Italy and Japan, reflecting declining competitiveness. Furthermore, CMS analysis shows that Indonesian coffee exhibits competitive performance only in the Egyptian market. Conversely, export growth in the United States, Malaysia, Italy, Japan, and India remains below global trade growth, characterized by weak competitive effects. These findings suggest the necessity of market-specific strategies to strengthen Indonesia’s coffee export competitiveness globally.

Abstract

Women in farming activities have the same role as men, but their role is often ignored. Women are considered not to have a significant impact on farming activities. The aim of this research is to determine the role and contribution of women cashew farmers, determine cashew farming income, and determine the relationship between the involvement of women farmers and cashew farming income. The approach to understanding women's contributions in cashew farming uses the Harvard Method perspective (activity, marketing, access, control and benefits). This research used a mixed-method approach carried out on Madura Island, especially in Sampang and Sumenep Regencies. The qualitative approach used in-depth interviews with six key informants from the Agriculture and Agricultural Extension Services in the two districts. Furthermore, quantitative research involved a sample of 40 women cashew farmers from Sampang and Sumenep Regencies. The analysis stage uses distribution frequency, farming income analysis, and chi-square analysis. The results of this research show that in general women are involved in all categories (activities, marketing, access, control and benefits) with an average income of IDR 18,909,474. However, there is no relationship between the involvement of women farmers and cashew farming income. Therefore, further exploration of gender-sensitive research on women farmers is needed for the development of the cashew sector.

Abstract

Smallholder coffee farming has a significant contribution to the rural economy, but the efficiency of input use is still a major challenge. This study aims to analyze the influence of production factors on the results of smallholder coffee farming in Suci Village, Panti District, Jember Regency, and to design and implement an input optimization model based on the Cobb-Douglas production function in the form of a simple and practical recommendation system. The novelty of this study lies in the application of economic production functions into a recommendation system that is easy for farmers to operate. The research method used is a quantitative approach, with regression analysis of the Cobb-Douglas model and a spreadsheet-based system implementation test on ten coffee farmers. The results showed that labor, fertilizer, capital, and land had a significant influence on crop yields, with labor as the most dominant factor. However, only labor was used excessively, while other inputs were still underutilized. The implementation of the system resulted in an increase in productivity of 28.5% and economic efficiency of 35.5%, while helping farmers understand the difference between actual and optimal inputs. This study shows that the integration of production functions and practical recommendation systems can be an efficient and applicable solution for decision making in community coffee farming.

Abstract

Technological development has encouraged the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in agriculture to support smarter, more efficient, and sustainable farming systems. This study is novel in examining ICT utilization across three contrasting topographies within a single regency, and in finding that farming experience reduces — rather than increases — ICT use, while land area outweighs access-based factors such as device ownership. Purworejo Regency is a relevant area for such analysis due to its varied land characteristics. This study aimed to identify the factors influencing ICT utilization among smallholder farmers who are members of farmer groups in Purworejo Regency. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed through a survey of 87 farmers in three subdistricts representing topographical variation, namely Bener, Ngombol, and Purwodadi. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that farming experience had a negative and significant effect, while land area had a positive and significant effect on ICT utilization. Meanwhile, age, education, status in farmer groups, land status, and number of ICT devices owned had no significant effect. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on smallholder farmers in a geographically diverse agricultural area and in examining the local level determinants of ICT use. These findings provide useful insights for developing more targeted agricultural digitalization policies and extension programs.

Abstract

This research aims to understand the communication network in the context of independent oil palm cultivation in Tri Mulya Jaya Village. Through interviews and questionnaires involving 15 oil palm farmers, the study utilized non-probability sampling methods such as purposive and snowball sampling. The results indicated internal and external conditions supporting the adoption and implementation of oil palm cultivation. Factors like productive age, upper secondary education, and moderate land area collaborated with the effectiveness of extension officer visits and income levels. The farmers' use of smartphones reflected the effectiveness of agricultural extension. The communication network pattern formed a circular structure with equal roles and strengths, promoting optimal participation. Central figures, particularly HN and AS, played a key role in information dissemination. Despite JM having the highest closeness, the centrality of HN and AS marked popularity in the communication network. Centrality analysis highlighted the central role of association figures in supporting oil palm replanting activities. Communication patterns and functional relationships played a crucial role in forming an effective network in Tri Mulya Jaya Village.
