Abstract

The underutilization of land in young oil palm plantations presents a major challenge to both productivity and sustainability in tropical agriculture. This article explores upland rice intercropping as a promising strategy to optimize land use during the immature phase of oil palm cultivation. This study performs a qualitative literature analysis to examine the economic and ecological aspects of upland rice intercropping within oil palm plantations. The research consolidates findings from more than 80 peer-reviewed articles and institutional reports, chosen for their topic significance and regional diversity. Intercropping provides revenue diversification and enhances food security. It enhances soil fertility, biodiversity, and climate resistance. Nonetheless, implementation is constrained by knowledge deficiencies and policy limitations. This review emphasizes key elements affecting adoption and underlines the practice's role in sustainable land management in tropical areas.

Abstract

Revitalizing oil palm smallholder plantations is crucial for improving yields and ensuring long-term sustainable development. Nevertheless, smallholders face numerous challenges, including limited financial resources, scarce access to essential inputs, and limitations in technical expertise. This research seeks to explore both the potential and the challenges associated with the renewal of smallholder oil palm plantations, focusing specifically on improvements in productivity and sustainable practices. A qualitative literature review approach was employed, synthesizing insights from prior academic studies, policy reports, and relevant publications. The analysis, conducted through thematic synthesis, highlights key factors influencing financial, technical, and environmental dimensions in the rejuvenation process. Findings indicate that while rejuvenation holds considerable promise for improving yields and advancing sustainable practices, persistent barriers remain, such as restricted financing options, inadequate technical capacity building, and environmental management concerns. However, smallholders involved in cooperative frameworks or sustainable supply chain initiatives tend to experience positive developments in both productivity and ecological outcomes. The study concludes that successful rejuvenation efforts demand a holistic strategy integrating financial support, technical assistance, and environmentally responsible farming methods. Further studies are suggested to investigate the prolonged socioeconomic effects of plantation rejuvenation and its contribution to strengthening ecological stability and participatory land management. By combining disparate findings from earlier research, this study offers a novel and integrative framework synthesis and suggests a new multidisciplinary framework to direct smallholder oil palm revival projects in a sustainable and repeatable manner.

Abstract

The paper assessed the fresh beef products consumer preference and consumption pattern in Jalingo Emirate communities of Nigeria. A sample of 300 respondents was drawn through random sampling method, and analysed by the use of descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis. Findings showed that majority of the fresh beef consumers were males within the age range of 20-50 years, and mostly singles. A larger proportion (49.00%) of the beef consumers had secondary school certificates. Occupationally, 34.00% of the respondents were traders earning between N21,000 and N70,000 only. Majority (77.33%) of the respondents consumed less than 2.00kg of beef monthly in the area. Most (74.00%) of the beef consumers eat the commodity at home with 40.00% of them consuming it 1-3 times weekly. The major determinants of fresh beef and its products consumption were age, monthly expenditure on substitutes, monthly income, price of beef, frequency of consumption and gender. The most experienced challenges for the beef consumers include outrageous cost of beef, unhygienic method of preparation and unwholesomeness of the beef. Institutions intending to minimise these constraints should assiduously work toward resolving these raised issues in the communities of the Emirate.

Abstract

This research is intended to examine the impact of technology adoption in work processes, emotional intelligence, and digital competence on the performance of the employees in agribusiness companies. Adopting the quantitative strategy with the survey technique, data were obtained from the surveys with the responses of 180 agribusiness employees. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the help of the SmartPLS 4 program has been used as the technique to conduct the analysis. The findings reveal the significant influence of technology adoption in work processes towards employee performance. It also indicates the significant influence of emotional intelligence, which validates the significance of the management of emotions in the face of modern work dynamics. Digital competence is found to be an essential prerequisite in maximizing the efficiency and productivity in work, especially in the application of agricultural information systems and IoT-based technologies. This research offers managerial implications in the form of recommendations to management in the agribusiness to put more emphasis on technology training as well as the soft skill development of employees. The research also enriches the knowledge with the integration of technological as well as psychological orientations existing in the context of agribusiness, which has remained relatively under-theorized empirically.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital literacy, government policy, and infrastructure on coffee productivity in Kerinci Regency. A descriptive and explanatory research design was applied using a quantitative approach. The study population consisted of 117 registered coffee farmers, and a sample of 90 respondents was determined using the Slovin formula with a 5% margin of error. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and field observations, complemented by secondary sources. The findings show that all three factors significantly affect coffee productivity. Digital literacy enables farmers to access agricultural information, adopt modern technologies, and expand market opportunities. Infrastructure improves efficiency by reducing production and distribution costs while enhancing connectivity. Among the factors, government policy has the strongest effect, particularly through training, certification, subsidies, and market promotion. These findings highlight that government policy, digital literacy, and infrastructure collectively play a crucial role in enhancing the productivity and competitiveness of coffee farmers.

Abstract

Fertilizer application is a crucial aspect of agricultural practices, especially for horticultural crops like cauliflower. Humbang Hasundutan Regency, a key horticultural hub in North Sumatra Province, has been significantly affected by rising chemical fertilizer costs, placing a financial strain on farmers. This study aimed to evaluate three fertilization strategies in terms of cost-efficiency, effectiveness, and their potential to reduce chemical fertilizer expenses. Using an experimental method, primary data were collected over one growing season to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of each experiment. Results showed that combining chemical and organic fertilizers improved cost-efficiency but did not enhance production effectiveness. Specifically, a 50:50 blend of chemical and organic fertilizers reduced fertilizer costs by IDR 1,468,400 per hectare. These findings indicate that incorporating organic fertilizers can be a viable approach for farmers to lower input costs and potentially improve farm sustainability.

Abstract

The non-formal education process aims to support farmers in enhancing their agriculture skills and achieving mutual interdependence. Enhancing the involvement of extension workers is believed to positively influence farming productivity. This study seeks to identify the role of extension in cocoa commodities and to examine the factors affecting the productivity improvement of cocoa farmers. The research was carried out in cocoa-producing areas, in Poso Regency. The sample size in this study was determined using Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis, following the minimum requirement of five times the number of research indicators, resulting in a total of 103 respondents. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the Partial Least Square (PLS) approach with the Smart-PLS program. Factors such as farmer characteristics and the role of extension workers have a significant impact on improving farmer competency. Farmer competency can be improved through the role of extension workers based on the specific needs of cocoa farmers. This increase in competency has a direct impact on increasing farmer production and income. Farmers with higher competency will be able to optimize the use of agricultural inputs, such as the use of fertilizers and pesticides, and be more effective in various processes, such as cultivation, harvesting, post-harvest, processing, and marketing.

Abstract

Technical efficiency is a crucial aspect of shallot production in Indonesia, yet comprehensive research analyzing the technical efficiency of shallot farmers in Magetan Regency remains limited. This study aims to measure the technical efficiency levels of shallot farming in Magetan Regency, identify the influencing factors, and provide relevant recommendations. This research contributes to the literature by providing the first comprehensive analysis of technical efficiency in Magetan Regency's unique highland-lowland agricultural context, offering evidence-based policy recommendations for sustainable shallot production intensification.The research method employed was a survey with a sample of 125 shallot farmers selected through a multistage random sampling technique. Data analysis utilized the Cobb-Douglas Stochastic Frontier production function with Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE), and technical efficiency was measured by comparing actual output to potential output. The results showed that the average technical efficiency of farmers reached 0.757, with 80% of farmers classified as efficient (≥ 0.7). Factors with a significant impact on production included the use of urea, labor, and seeds, which had a positive influence, while land area and organic fertilizer had a negative effect. These findings indicate inefficiencies in some production inputs, particularly in land management and the use of organic fertilizers. Optimizing fertilizer application, enhancing labor skills, and selecting quality seeds are strategic steps to improve technical efficiency. The findings have direct policy implications for agricultural extension programs, input subsidy allocation, and farmer training initiatives in Indonesia's shallot production centers.

Abstract

Digital transformation in the agricultural sector has become an essential driver of agribusiness supply chain improvement, particularly in regions facing structural productivity challenges such as West Java. This study specifically aims to examine how agricultural technology adoption, e-commerce utilization, and process efficiency influence agribusiness supply chain performance, while explicitly identifying the extent to which digital-based practices strengthen operational integration among agribusiness actors. Unlike previous studies that focus only on one or two aspects of digitalization, this research offers novelty by simultaneously analyzing three key digital transformation dimensions and empirically testing their combined contribution to agribusiness supply chain performance in a developing-country context. Using a quantitative survey approach involving 120 agribusiness respondents selected through purposive sampling, the study employs multiple linear regression to validate the proposed model. The findings show that technology adoption significantly enhances productivity and accuracy in land and resource management; e-commerce utilization expands market reach and improves transaction efficiency; and process efficiency accelerates product flow within the supply chain. All classical assumption tests confirm the model’s validity and reliability. This research contributes new empirical evidence on how integrated digital transformation initiatives strengthen agribusiness supply chain performance, offering practical insights for policymakers, agro-entrepreneurs, and digital agriculture developers.

Abstract

The plantation sub-sector has a strategic role in the Indonesian economy. One of the plants in the plantation sub-sector that has the potential for economic growth and is superior in Indonesia is the tobacco plant. Bojonegoro Regency is one of the leading tobacco industry centers in Indonesia. However, farmer institutions in Bojonegoro are still weak and experience problems, so a more in-depth analysis of the institutional system of tobacco farmers in Bojonegoro is needed. This research aimed to provide insight into the institutional system of tobacco farmers and how Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) could be used as an effective planning tool. This research could also help governments and related institutions in designing better policies to support tobacco farmers in overcoming the challenges of this industry. ISM Output Results, based on Reachability Matrix (RM) Tobacco Farmers in sector IV (INDEPENDENT), tobacco agro-industry and agricultural services were also in the same sector, while those in sector III (LINKAGE) were Regional Governments and Exporters, and those in sector II (DEPENDENT) were a Farmer and Supplier Group.
