Abstract

The global palm oil industry has become a focal point in agricultural trade due to its economic significance and environmental implications. As one of the world’s largest producers, Indonesia faces increasing pressure to maintain its competitiveness while addressing sustainability and trade policy challenges. This study aims to assess the development of scientific literature on Indonesian palm oil competitiveness and its relationship with global agricultural trade dynamics. The study was conducted using bibliometric analysis of 648 scientific articles obtained from Google Scholar and Scopus using the keyword "palm oil competitiveness". The articles were published in the time span from 1992 to 2025 for documents sourced from Google Scholar and the time span from 1985 to 2025 for documents sourced from Scopus.The data was analysed using Bibliometrix (R) and VOSviewer software to identify publication trends, main keywords, and interconnections between topics in the literature. The results showed a significant increase in the number of publications in the last decade, signalling high attention to the issue of palm oil competitiveness. Keywords such as “competitiveness”, “export performance”, “market share”, and “sustainable development” were central in the literature network, illustrating the important role of economic, policy, and sustainability aspects in strengthening Indonesia's palm oil position in the global market. The findings showed that palm oil competitiveness did not only depend on production efficiency, but also required downstream policy support, capacity building of farmers, and strengthening of trade diplomacy. This research was expected to serve as a reference for academics and policymakers in formulating a sustainable, equitable palm oil development strategy that was able to adaptively respond to global trade challenges.

Abstract

Indonesia has extensive peatland areas that play an important role in national agricultural production. Still, farming on peat soils is often constrained by high production risks caused by low soil fertility, acidity, and unstable structure. Aloe vera is one of the leading horticultural commodities in Pontianak and has high economic value; however, its cultivation on peatlands is increasingly threatened by fluctuating yields and land conversion. This study analyzes the level of production risk in aloe vera farming on peatlands and identifies key factors that influence this risk. Using primary data from 81 farmers selected through saturated sampling, production risk was measured using the Coefficient of Variation (CV). In contrast, factors affecting production and its variability were examined using the Cobb–Douglas production function with the Just Pope approach. Results show that aloe vera farming on peatlands has a low production risk (CV=20.3%). Labor and seedlings significantly increase production, while manure plays a crucial role in reducing production risk. The finding that manure contributes substantially to risk reduction provides practical insights for peatland management and can serve as a key recommendation for improving the sustainability of aloe vera farming in North Pontianak District.

Abstract

Indonesia is recognized as an archipelagic state with vast marine resources, covering approximately 3.1 million km² or about 62% of the total national territory, presenting significant potential for fisheries development. However, traditional fishermen face various challenges, including declining fish catches due to overfishing, rising input costs, expensive fishing equipment, and environmental degradation, all of which directly affect their net income and welfare. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing fisherman’s net income in Jawai Laut Village, South Jawai Subdistrict, Sambas Regency. The study employs a quantitative approach using primary data collected from 54 motorboat owning fishermen through structured interviews and questionnaires, complemented by secondary data from relevant institutions. The data were analyzed using a log-linear Cobb-Douglas net income model to estimate the elasticity of net income with respect to input cost variables, namely diesel prices, oil price, bait price, and labor wages. The results indicate that all input cost variables significantly affect fishermen’s net income. Diesel price, bait price, and labor wages have a positive and significant effect, while oil price has a negative and significant effect. The model demonstrates strong explanatory power, with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.868. These findings highlight the critical role of input cost dynamics in shaping fishermen’s economic performance. Therefore, policies related to stabilizing fuel prices, ensuring input availability, and improving cost efficiency are essential to enhance the welfare of small scale fishermen in coastal communities such as Jawai Laut Village.

Abstract

Fiscal policy plays a strategic role in promoting economic stability and poverty reduction in agriculture, yet rising Farmers’ Terms of Trade do not always translate into lower farmer poverty. This study contributes by clarifying this paradox and assessing whether fiscal policy effectively improves farmers’ welfare outcomes. This study aims to examine the progressivity of NTP and to analyze the extent to which NTP mediates the impact of agricultural fiscal policy on poverty reduction, given that poverty rates are predominantly concentrated among farming communities. The data used in this research is panel data comprising six districts/cities in Gorontalo Province over a ten-year period from 2015 to 2024. The data analysis methods employed include descriptive analysis and panel data path analysis. Before conducting the path analysis, the data were transformed using natural logarithms and standardized values to ensure that the beta coefficients from the equations could be used as path coefficients. The findings reveal that: (1) The progress of NTP in Gorontalo Province tends to remain above 100%, which indicates that farmers benefit from their farming activities. However, this figure does not necessarily represent that farmers are economically prosperous, as the surplus (profit/income) between farming revenue and farming costs often remains insufficient compared to the poverty line. This results in the phenomenon of high NTP values alongside persistent and significant levels of poverty. (2) The General Allocation Fund (DAU) has a positive but insignificant effect on NTP in Gorontalo Province. The Special Allocation Fund (DAK) also has a positive but insignificant effect on NTP. Similarly, NTP has a negative but insignificant effect on poverty levels in the province. Both DAU and DAK exhibit negative but insignificant direct effects on poverty. Furthermore, the indirect effects of DAU and DAK on poverty through NTP are also negative but statistically insignificant.

Abstract

Numerous studies have been conducted that concentrate on enhancing the efficacy of the agricultural sector, highlighting the significance of technical factors as well as the implications of climate change. To this point, there exists a deficiency of research exploring the impact of fiscal policy on the agricultural sector in Indonesia. This study provides novel empirical evidence on how debt and its associated risks influence the agricultural sector. Annual macroeconomic data from 1990 to 2023 were used to examine the relationship between debt, debt service, foreign direct investment, fertilizer consumption, and land area to the GDP of the agricultural sector in Indonesia. The examination was conducted employing the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) methodology to discern both short-term and long-term associations among the variables. The results show that in the long run, public debt is positively related to the share of GDP in the agricultural sector, while the cost of debt service is negatively related. In the short term, only a few specific variables show a significant influence on the GDP of the agricultural sector. These results affirm that indebtedness contributes positively to the agricultural sector, whereas the expenses associated with servicing that debt may hinder the sector's contribution. This study provides empirical evidence that fiscal policy plays a crucial role in the agricultural sector and needs to be considered. Therefore, debt management must be directed at an efficient and effective allocation, taking into account the benefits of loans and the risks posed by interest payment obligations and debt installments. The study builds on the fiscal policy literature that affects key sectors of developing countries. The use of annual data with 34 observations, as well as indicators of GDP in the agricultural sector, implies that the results of the study reflect more structural changes and sectoral proportions in the economy.

Abstract

Rising incomes and urbanization have substantially transformed food consumption patterns in developing economies. Patterns of food demand at the household and economy-wide levels are commonly studied in terms of changes in the structure of food demand and expenditure patterns on food items over time. This study investigates whether processed food can be considered a luxury good in India by estimating a macroeconomic Engel curve using annual data for the period 2007–2022. It uses time-series data on household final consumption expenditure incurred on purchase of processed foods and gross domestic product measured in terms of aggregate gross value added at basic prices. The data is sourced from the input-output tables of the Indian economy published by the Asian Development Bank on annual frequency. Using a log-log regression model, this study investigates whether an Engel curve exists between household final consumption expenditure on processed foods and gross value added. The results show that household final consumption expenditure on processed foods in India has grown faster than aggregate gross value added during the said period, indicating an income elasticity of demand greater than unity. This suggests that processed foods behaved as a luxury good in India during the study period. The study highlights important implications for processed food policy framing, including strategies for processed food manufacturing, input sourcing, agribusiness development, environmental sustainability, managing health risks associated with consumption of processed foods, taxation, and export promotion and management in India’s evolving food economy.

Abstract

Economic challenges and specific policies often trigger land conversion in the countryside. The primary objective of this study is to explore the repercussions of land use change on household income and determine which household types are most vulnerable to the decline in income due to land use changes. The study was carried out in Gununghalu sub-district and used a quantitative approach. Surveys were conducted to collect data, which was subsequently evaluated through multivariate analysis using multiple linear regression to examine the significance of various socioeconomic factors on household income after land conversion. The results showed a positive and significant impact of land area, education, and age on income. In contrast, the number of commodities cultivated exerted a substantial negative influence, although involvement in farmer groups and the number of family dependents shown no significant effect. An other significant conclusion was that households overseeing an excessive number of commodities often encountered reduced revenue, attributed to their constrained ability to manage excessively diversified enterprises. Consequently, non-selective diversification measures may impose a burden on households. This study emphasizes the significance of capacity-oriented agricultural planning and enhancing access to education and land tenure in mitigating the dynamics of land use change.

Abstract

Fruit consumption plays an important role in maintaining public healthhowever, the level of fruit consumption in Indonesia remains relatively low compared to the standards recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). This situation highlights the need for academic investigation to understand the factors influencing consumers’ fruit purchasing decisions. This study aims to analyze the determinants of fruit purchasing behavior in Indonesia using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The research data were obtained from 45 scientific articles published between 2021 and 2025. The article identification and retrieval process was conducted using the Publish or Perish software, while VOSviewer was utilized to perform bibliometric visualization.The results indicate that price and product quality are the most dominant factors influencing fruit purchasing decisions. These variables are followed by other determinants such as income level, taste preferences, promotion, and sales location, which also contribute to consumer decision-making. Bibliometric cluster analysis reveals three major research themes in the existing literature: (1) product attributes and consumer preferences, (2) the role of the marketing mix and consumer demand dynamics, and (3) the relationship between price, product quality, and external influences. Demographic variables such as age, education, and occupation demonstrate varying levels of influence on purchasing behavior. Psychological aspects, consumer satisfaction, and cultural factors also contribute to purchasing decisions, although their influence is less dominant than that of economic and product-related variables. The study concludes that fruit purchasing decisions in Indonesia are multidimensional, shaped by the interaction between internal consumer factors and external market conditions. Based on these findings, the study recommends the development of adaptive agribusiness strategies, particularly through integrated marketing approaches and digital promotion, that combine competitive pricing, product quality improvement, and alignment with consumer preferences to increase fruit consumption in Indonesia sustainably.

Abstract

This study analyzes Edufarming as a communication strategy for diffusing AIoT-based smart farming innovation at SGH Hydroponic in Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive single-case study design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and documentation. The informants consisted of the founder, co-founder, two technical staff members of SGH Hydroponic, and one participant in the Edufarming program. The researcher also participated directly in the Edufarming program to observe the learning process, interaction patterns, and technology demonstrations. Data were analyzed using an interactive qualitative model consisting of data collection, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The analysis also applied thematic categorization based on Rogers’ diffusion of innovation attributes and was strengthened through source and methodological triangulation. The findings show that Edufarming functions not only as an agricultural education activity but also as a participatory communication mechanism that connects technology, agribusiness actors, training participants, and market partners within a learning ecosystem. The diffusion process occurs through technology demonstrations, hands-on practice, interpersonal communication, group learning, and direct observation of production outcomes. AIoT-based hydroponics provides relative advantages through production stability, faster harvesting, product consistency, and stronger market trust. Edufarming also improves compatibility, reduces perceived complexity, facilitates trialability, and strengthens observability through visible plant growth, dashboard-based monitoring, and practical learning activities. The study implies that smart farming diffusion requires technological readiness, structured communication, mentoring, digital literacy support, and participatory learning.

Abstract

Buffalo farming is an important part of agribusiness activities that play a role in supporting the economy of rural livestock families. Buffalo farming contributes to family income beside providing a source of food and labor. Buffalo farming agribusiness needs to be continuously optimized with the hope of optimizing the capital and competency aspects of farmers in order to optimize the economy and family income. The study aims to determine (1) the contribution of buffalo agribusiness to family income, and (2) analyze the influence of land area (capital factor) and farmer experience (competence) on family income through livestock agribusiness. The research used a Mixed Method Sequential Explanatory approach. The data source in this study was primary data from questionnaires distributed to 85 livestock farmers, followed by interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis used descriptive statistics, path analysis, and Sobel test. Research results showed that Buffalo agribusiness contributed an average of 44.09% to family income, with the lowest contribution of 2.23% and the highest 98.48%. Path analysis showed that land area and livestock farmer experience did not have a significant direct effect on family income, with land area being more influential than farmer experience. However, the Sobel test showed that land area and livestock farmer experience had a positive and significant effect when using buffalo agribusiness income as a mediating variable, farmer experience was the most dominant influence in indirect effect. Income from buffalo agribusiness plays a strategic role in increasing the influence of capital and livestock farmer competency on household economic well-being. These results emphasize the importance of strengthening an integrated, land-based, and experience-based buffalo agribusiness system, policy interventions in the form of capacity-building training for farmers, optimal utilization of land resources, and institutional support to enable buffalo agribusiness to become a primary pillar in strengthening family economic resilience.
