Abstract

Bird’s eye chili farming is an important part of the horticultural sector that plays a role in supporting food needs and the rural economy. This study aims to analyze farmers' social capital in bird’s eye chili farming in Sukowiryo Village, Jelbuk District, Jember Regency. This research uses a quasi qualitative method, with data collection techniques using in-depth interviews, passive participation observation, and documentation of the main and supporting informants. The results show that social capital, consisting of social networks, norms, and trust plays an important role in every stage of farming, starting from the procurement of seeds or seedlings, land processing, planting, maintenance, pest and disease control, harvest and post-harvest, to marketing. Social networks between farmers, families, labor, market actors, and formal institutions facilitate the flow of information and resources. Norms, both written and unwritten, serve as guidelines for cooperation. Trust built on shared experiences and common goals strengthens social cohesion and ensures the sustainability of cooperation. This research shows that social capital is not only a supporting factor, but a strategic resource in realizing the sustainability of bird’s eye chili farming. Therefore, strengthening social capital can improve farmers' welfare

Abstract

Low levels of farmer welfare remain prevalent in many agrarian communities. The international migration of women has emerged as a key strategy for farming households to cope with poverty and enhance their livelihoods. This study examines how remittances from female migrant workers are invested in agriculture and assesses their impact on the social mobility of farming households. The research was conducted in Kroya District, Indramayu Regency, a rural and agriculture area with persistently high levels of poverty. This study using a qualitative approach and case study method. The study involved a survey of 50 returnee female migrant, and in-depth interviews with various stakeholders, including village officials, community leaders, and labor brokers. Data were analyzed thematically. The findings show that land is a crucial asset for households of female migrant workers. Accordingly, remittances are primarily used to purchase land, which enhances household food security and elevates their social standing within the village. However, the use of remittances to modernize agricultural production remains limited. This suggests that while remittances strengthen livelihood assets—particularly natural, physical, and social capital—they do not automatically translate into increased agricultural productivity. These findings highlight the need for supportive policies that promote the productive and sustainable use of remittances in agriculture.

Abstract

The Consumer Non-Cyclicals (CNC) and Consumer Cyclicals (CC) sectors are two important pillars of the Indonesian economy and capital market, including the agribusiness sector in general. The CNC sector has a close relationship with agribusiness, particularly in food supply and promoting agricultural activities. Meanwhile, the CC sector offers broader opportunities for agricultural downstreaming through value-added processing and manufacturing. Therefore this research aims to analyze the characteristics, company performance, and company value of these two sectors as the new insight of agribusiness in macroeconomy. This research employed the census method, and secondary data were obtained from annual and financial reports on the IDX and the company websites in 2023. This study applies quantitative descriptive analysis to examine company characteristics, including ROA, ROE, and Employee Turnover, to evaluate company performance, and uses Tobin's Q, PER, and PBV to measure company value. The contribution of this research is to provide comprehensive empirical evidence on the fundamental differences between the CNC and CC sectors, and the novelty lies in the sectoral comparison, which makes it one of the first studies in Indonesia to compare CNC and CC based on company characteristics, performance, and value, not just financial comparisons. The results show that the CNC sector performs better operationally, financially, and in human resources performance, while the CC sector shows weaker results in these three aspects. Based on company value, the CNC sector performs better on Tobin’s Q, PER, and PBV than the CC sector.

Abstract

This study analyzes the marketing system of Dendrobium orchids in Semarang City across four product stages (flask, seedling, juvenile, and flowering). The objectives are to measure marketing efficiency and formulate appropriate marketing strategies. The research employed a census method with both quantitative and qualitative approaches, using data obtained through interviews, questionnaires, and observations. Quantitative analyses included marketing margin, farmer’s share, cost–margin ratio (CMR), the Kruskal–Wallis test, and Post Hoc analysis. Qualitative analyses involved SWOT analysis, as well as the IFE, EFE, and IE matrices. The results indicate that the shortest marketing channel is the most efficient, with the highest efficiency found at the flask stage (margin IDR 53,000; farmer’s share 100%; CMR 7,33%), followed by the seedling stage (IDR 5,446; 78.10%; 27.96%), the juvenile stage (IDR 11,538; 72,93%; 19.74%), and the flowering stage (IDR 38,462; 68.41%; 20.13%). The Kruskal–Wallis test revealed significant differences across all three efficiency indicators (p < 0.001), and the Post Hoc analysis confirmed significant differences primarily between the flask and juvenile stages as well as the juvenile and flowering stages. The IFE (2.87) and EFE (2.71) scores positioned the business in the “Hold and Maintain” strategy quadrant, emphasizing market penetration and product development. Recommended strategies include shortening distribution channels, increasing value added at the farmer level, utilizing digital marketing, product innovation, and enhancing price transparency. These findings serve as a reference for farmers, associations, and local government in strengthening competitiveness and ensuring the sustainability of Dendrobium orchid agribusiness in Semarang City.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the biggest producers of tuna with 19.1% of the world's supply. However, despite steadily rising demand worldwide, its exports of processed tuna have decreased. This study examines the competitiveness of Indonesian processed tuna and the factors influencing its export performance across major destination markets during the period 2012–2023 by integrating the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) index with an import demand model estimated using panel data regression under the Random Effect Model (REM). The results show that Indonesian processed tuna is highly competitive in many destination markets, with RCA values higher than 4 in nine out of ten nations. However, competitiveness Spain is still comparatively low because Spain serves as a processing and re-export hub. The empirical results show that while geographic distance and exchange rates have significant negative effects on Indonesia's processed tuna export volume, real GDP per capita in destination countries has a positive and statistically significant effect. Import tariffs and non-tariff measures like Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) and Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) measures have no statistically significant effects. To determine how to strengthen Indonesia's position in the global processed tuna trade, this study links destination-specific competitiveness with export performance and offers policy-relevant insights that highlight the significance of focusing on high-income consumption-oriented markets, improving logistics efficiency, and maintaining exchange rate competitiveness.

Abstract

Oil Palm farming has a substantial positive impact on job creation and the socio-economic conditions of communities, particularly in rural areas. However, a major challenge faced by smallholder Oil Palm farmers, especially those operating on a small scale, is the sustainability of their farming practices. These barriers often hinder the implementation of sustainable agricultural practices that align with certification standards, particularly the Indonesian Sustainable Oil Palm (ISPO) standards. This study aims to describe the social and economic characteristics of ISPO-certified smallholder Oil Palm farmers, analyze management practices based on farm performance, and assess the sustainability model of smallholder Oil Palm farming in Merangin Regency, as reflected in ISPO certification. The research was conducted in Nalo Tantan District, which has varying levels of Oil Palm productivity and ISPO-certified smallholder farmers. The study used observational methods, direct interviews, and secondary data analysis from relevant institutions and scientific literature. A sample of 60 respondents was selected for the study. The results showed an average Oil Palm production of 84.43 tons/ha/year with an average selling price of IDR 2,682/kg. The average land area used by farmers was 3.40 ha, with fertiliser use of 840 kg/ha/year and pesticide use of 7.1 liters/ha/year. The sustainability analysis showed that ISPO-certified smallholder Oil Palm farming in Nalo Tantan has a relatively good sustainability status, with a sustainability index of 66.99. The economic dimension was highly sustainable with a score of 77.85, while the social and ecological dimensions were moderately sustainable, scoring 57.76 and 67.22, respectively. It is crucial to strengthen certification implementation, improve social and environmental management, and support economic sustainability by enhancing resource management and expanding market access.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between entrepreneurial capacity, business performance, and the welfare of cocoa farmers in Kulon Progo Regency. The research focuses on understanding how the entrepreneurial skills and business practices of cocoa farmers impact their economic well-being and productivity. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method and snowball sampling technique involving 178 respondents. Data were collected through interviews using a Likert scale-based questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the relationship between latent variables. The results of the study indicate that entrepreneurial capacity has a positive and significant effect on business performance and farmer welfare. Business performance proved to be a mediating variable that strengthened the relationship between entrepreneurial capacity and farmers' welfare. Farmers who possess business management skills, good decision-making abilities, and strong cultivation practices are able to maintain an average land productivity of 7.74 tons per hectare, even though their land area is relatively small. The study also found that business diversification and employment outside the agricultural sector are important strategies for maintaining household economic resilience. Based on these findings, the study recommends that local governments and relevant stakeholders strengthen farmer institutions, provide access to capital, and develop marketing partnerships to ensure more stable and sustainable farmer incomes.

Abstract

Rice is a strategic commodity serving as the staple food in Indonesia. Price transmission in the rice supply chain is critical for market efficiency and food security, yet existing studies often overlook seasonal variations and nonlinearity. This study aims to analyze seasonal variations in rice price transmission across producer, wholesaler, and traditional market levels in Indonesia during different seasons (February-May, June-September, October-January). The study employs monthly time-series data on medium rice prices from February 2020 to February 2025. The Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag model is used to capture short and long-run price transmission. Stationarity, cointegration, and Wald tests are conducted to validate the model. The findings reveal significant asymmetric price transmission during February-May and June-September, with farmers more vulnerable to price declines. Meanwhile, wholesalers and traditional markets responding faster to price increases. The October-January period shows stagnant dynamics due to low market activity. Long-run asymmetry is prevalent, indicating persistent market inefficiencies. Seasonal variations significantly influence rice price transmission in Indonesia, highlighting the need for season-based policy interventions to stabilize prices and protect farmers. Enhancing farmers' bargaining power and implementing technology-driven price monitoring systems are recommended to mitigate asymmetry and improve market efficiency

Abstract

The adoption of smart farming technology among rice farmers in Kanigoro Village, Pagelaran Subdistrict, remains low despite the availability of tools designed to enhance agricultural efficiency. Technologies such as the Smart Soil Sensor and Bird Control Sound System are still underutilized, reflecting a gap between technological availability and farmer adoption. This study analyzes the influence of attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control on farmers’ intention to adopt smart farming technology, using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as the analytical framework. A total of 100 farmers were surveyed through structured questionnaires and direct interviews, with data analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that all three variables significantly affect intention: attitude (β = 0.19, p = 0.023), subjective norm (β = 0.33, p < 0.001), and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.42, p < 0.001). Perceived behavioral control emerged as the strongest predictor, followed by subjective norm and attitude. These findings highlight that enhancing adoption requires not only promoting positive attitudes but also strengthening social support and improving farmers’ confidence in their ability to access and operate smart farming technologies

Abstract

Indonesia's agricultural sector faces challenges in low innovation adoption at the farmer level, particularly in the horticulture subsector. In Gunungpati District, Semarang City, the productive durian tree population declined drastically from 9,042 trees in 2022 to only 2,862 trees in 2024, indicating serious obstacles in the application of cultivation innovations. This study aimed to identify the socioeconomic characteristics of farmer group members, describe the form and intensity of agricultural extension agents' roles, analyze the level of durian cultivation innovation adoption, and analyze the influence of extension agents' roles on innovation adoption at Cepoko Mulyo Farmer Group in Gunungpati District, Semarang City. The study was conducted from January to May 2026 using a survey method with a census technique involving 37 active farmer group members as respondents. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability (Cronbach's Alpha for variable X = 0.906; variable Y = 0.890), and analyzed using descriptive analysis and simple linear regression. Results showed that the majority of farmers were aged above 55 years (64.8%), had primary school education (67.6%), and managed sharecropping land of less than 2,000 m² (64.9%). The intensity of extension agents' roles was low, with 56.8% of respondents interacting only 0–1 time per year. The level of innovation adoption was in the moderate category (59.5%). Regression analysis produced the equation Y = 18.736 + 0.441X with a t-value of 3.014 (sig. 0.005 < 0.05), proving that the role of agricultural extension agents has a positive and significant effect on durian cultivation innovation adoption. The R² value of 0.206 indicates that the extension agents' role contributes 20.6%, while the remaining 79.4% is influenced by other factors such as free seedling assistance and the area's identity as a durian production center.
