Abstract

Sustainable livelihoods are a crucial concept in efforts to achieve balanced social, economic, and environmental prosperity. In reality, many communities face challenges with their implementation, including uncertain income and limited access to existing resources. The existence of these problems necessitates effective strategies for achieving sustainable livelihoods. This research aims to analyze sustainable livelihood strategies by optimizing the livelihood capital owned by rice farmers. This research was conducted in Penanggungan Village, Trawas District, Mojokerto Regency. This research was conducted in February – March 2024. This research focused on farmers who grow rice plants, with 134 respondents. The method used is a sustainable livelihood approach based on livelihood capital. Data analysis used logistic regression. The results obtained from human capital, social capital, and physical capital have a significant and positive impact on sustainable livelihoods. Meanwhile, natural capital has no significant effect, and financial capital has a negative and insignificant impact on sustainable livelihoods. Thus, human capital, social capital, and physical capital have the opportunity to improve farmers’ sustainable livelihoods.

Abstract

Soft rot is a plant disease that can reduce both the quality and quantity of potato production, primarily caused by the Pectobacterium carotovorum. This study aims to isolate and identify the bacteria responsible for soft rot disease in potato tubers using molecular methods. Bacterial isolation was performed on a diseased potato tuber collected from Sumber Brantas Village, followed by a pathogenicity test, PCR, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis.  Based on macroscopic and microscopic examination, four isolates exhibiting soft rot symptoms were identified: P1, P2, K5, and K7. The 16S rRNA sequencing results and BLAST analysis showed that isolate K5 was closely related to Serratia rubidaea, isolate P2 was closely associated with Pectobacterium carotovorum, isolate P1 was closely related to Pseudomonas koreensis, and isolate K7 was closely associated with Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum. This study presents the first molecular characterization of bacteria responsible for soft rot in potato tubers originating from Batu City, East Java. The findings provide foundational insights that may support the development of molecular-based diagnostic tools and region-specific disease management strategies for potato cultivation in Indonesia.

Abstract

The transformation of tropical landscapes due to agricultural expansion constitutes a significant global environmental challenge. Current land-cover classification methods, however, provide limited differentiation among agricultural management systems. This study develops an agriculture-focused land-cover classification workflow that fuses Landsat 9 optical imagery and PALSAR-2 L-band SAR across a ≈2,500 km² study area in Jambi Province, Sumatra, Indonesia, to enhance discrimination of crop systems and improve spatial coherence via object-based enhancement. A 22-class land-cover taxonomy was supported by 14,029 strategically collected training points. Feature engineering produced 29 predictor variables, including conventional vegetation indices, agricultural-specific metrics, water indicators, and SAR-derived structural features. Models were evaluated on an independent test dataset comprising 4,209 samples. An agriculture-weighted Random Forest classifier with strategic class weighting was implemented and followed by Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) object-based enhancement to suppress speckle and enforce spatial contiguity. The classification achieved an overall accuracy of 53.7%, with exceptional performance for estate crop systems (F1 = 94%) and reliable forest discrimination. SLIC reduced salt-and-pepper noise by 99.5% and substantially improved spatial coherence metrics, transforming fragmented pixel-based outputs into operationally viable products. Despite these gains, discriminating smallholder mosaics remains challenging and likely requires additional temporal or higher-resolution inputs.

Abstract

Granulated sugar is a vital ingredient in Indonesia, widely used as a sweetener in various food and beverage applications. To meet increasing domestic demand, the government has targeted sugar self-sufficiency by 2025. The Indonesian Long-Term Development Plan 2020–2024 outlines efforts to enhance sugarcane productivity. This study aims to identify the factors influencing farmer loyalty in sugarcane cultivation in Indonesia. A quantitative approach was employed to examine the relationships between government policy, sugar company policy, farmer behavior, and cooperative member participation (independent variables) and farmer loyalty (dependent variable). The data were analyzed using SmartPLS version 4. The results indicate that government policy and cooperative member participation do not significantly affect farmer loyalty, while farmer behavior and sugar company policy have a significant positive influence. Notably, the policies of sugar companies play a pivotal role in shaping farmers’ commitment to sugarcane cultivation. These findings suggest that strengthening farmer behavior and enhancing company-level policies can improve loyalty. Furthermore, the results imply that government efforts toward sugar self-sufficiency should not only focus on policy formulation but also ensure alignment with farmers' practical needs and support systems. Integrating sugar company strategies with national agricultural policies could enhance the effectiveness of government programs and accelerate the achievement of self-sufficiency targets.

Abstract

Chili commodity production has been rising and falling over the years. In contrast, prices for chili experience extreme variability. A price fluctuation of more than 40% indicates that something is wrong with supply management. Chili price volatility poses significant challenges for food security and inflation control in Indonesia. This study investigates the factors influencing cayenne pepper prices using daily data from January 2023 to September 2024 at the Kramat Jati Wholesale Market. An Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model was applied to estimate the dynamic relationship between prices and supplies of cayenne and curly red chili. The results indicate that previous prices, substitution effects with curly red chili, and supply shocks have a significant influence on cayenne pepper prices. These findings underscore the importance of real-time supply monitoring, market integration, and strategic distribution planning in mitigating price spikes. The study offers empirical evidence to support more responsive government interventions in stabilizing chili prices and reducing inflationary pressure in perishable food markets.

Abstract

Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is a major stored product pest that can damage flour in storage. The infestation of T. confusum causes contamination of stored grain, such as flour. Research about the population growth of T. confusum in various commercial and non-commercial flours is still limited. This study aims to determine the population growth of T. confusum in various commercial and non-commercial flours. The study was conducted using the no-choice test method (NCTM). This study used a treatment jar containing 30 g of diet and infested 15 pairs of T. confusum adults for 7 days. Data obtained from this research were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and further analyzed using the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The results showed that the number of larvae, pupae, and F1 progeny of T. confusum was higher in non-commercial red rice flour (80, 50 individuals; 59, 50 individuals; 57, 50 individuals) compared to other types of flour. The chemical characteristics of diets that can affect the population growth of T. confusum include fat, ash, carbohydrate, and phenol content. In conclusion, understanding the chemical characteristics of flour is crucial for developing a strategy to control T. confusum.

Abstract

The uniqueness of stingless bee honey makes it an attractive choice as both food and natural medicine for honey consumers, who were previously dominated by honey produced by honeybees (Apis mellifera). This study examines the marketing of stingless bee honey in North Sumatra. The objectives were to determine marketing channels and functions, farmer share, share margin, and the marketing mix. This study uses a cross-sectional survey in five districts/cities in North Sumatra. Respondents were selected using the purposive sampling method (11 stingless bee farmers with at least 50 colonies and at least 5 years of experience), snowball sampling (5 resellers) by recording buying and selling prices. The study results show that three marketing channels are used, with farmers sharing 64.6% on channel 2, yielding an average margin of IDR 106,088/kg. This study found that the longer the distribution chain, the smaller the proportion of income received by farmers (farmer share). Direct channels provide full margins to farmers, whereas the involvement of resellers significantly reduces the farmer's share of the profit. The implications of these findings underscore the importance of developing more efficient and equitable marketing strategies for farmers, including the effective use of digital platforms to expand their markets. However, this study was limited to a specific region and sample. Further studies are recommended to analyze channel efficiency and the impact of digital promotions on increasing sales and farmer welfare.

Abstract

Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum remains a major limitation in shallot (Allium cepa L.) cultivation, severely reducing yield and crop quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of native rhizobacterial isolates as biological inducers of resistance against Fusarium wilt under different organic growing media. A split-plot randomized complete block design was applied using three growing media (rice husk charcoal, manure, and their combination) and four rhizobacterial treatments (control and three local isolates: R1–R3) with three replications. Key physiological assays included the measurement of salicylic acid (SA) content and peroxidase (POX) enzyme activity as biochemical indicators of induced resistance. Results showed that the isolate from Waitii Village (R3) significantly reduced disease incidence to 52.67% compared with 86.56% in the control, while the combined organic medium (M2) further enhanced plant resistance. Increased SA (26.82 ppm) and POX activity exhibited strong negative correlations with disease incidence (R² = 0.60 and R² = 0.71, respectively), indicating their pivotal role in rhizobacteria-mediated defense activation. These findings confirm that indigenous rhizobacteria, when combined with organic amendments, effectively stimulate systemic acquired resistance and mitigate the severity of Fusarium wilt in shallots. The study highlights the potential of the R3 isolate as a sustainable bioinoculant candidate for integrated disease management. Further molecular identification, in vitro antagonism testing, and multi-location field validation are recommended to ensure its stability, efficacy, and applicability under diverse agroecological conditions.

Abstract

. The increasing trend of fossil fuel consumption is inversely proportional to the available natural gas reserves. Renewable energy sources derived from biomass are needed to become alternative fuels, such as biobriquettes. This study aims to optimize biobriquette production by adding burning initiator materials to obtain the best composition that meets the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) and exhibits good ignition characteristics. The experimental design was based on the Taguchi method with an L9 (34) orthogonal array, and the results were statistically analyzed using Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) to evaluate multiple responses. Although the highest Grey Relational Grade (GRG) indicated the theoretical optimum, the confirmation test revealed a slightly different composition with better burning performance. The optimal composition consisted of 3 g of OPEFB (A1), 16 g of PKS (B2), 40% pine sap (C3), and 20% sulfur (D3), producing a moisture content of 1.148%, ash content of 10.75%, volatile matter content of 12.36%, calorific value of 7,223.5 cal‧g-1, initial ignition time of 1.83 s, and burning rate of 0.237 mg‧min-1. These results indicate that the produced biobriquettes meet SNI standards for moisture, volatile matter, calorific value, and have good burning ease.

Abstract

This greenhouse study investigated the impact of Biotogrow liquid organic fertilizer concentration and application frequency on lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) growth and yield at Telaga Kodok from May to August 2024. The purpose of the research is to determine the effect of Biotogrow Liquid Fertiliser concentration and fertilisation interval, as well as the interaction between the two, on the growth and production of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.). Using a factorial Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications, researchers tested four Biotogrow concentrations (0, 2, 5, and 8 ml L⁻¹) and four fertilization intervals (0, 4, 7, and 10 days). Growth parameters, including plant height, leaf number, leaf area, fresh weights, shoot-to-root ratio, and harvest index, were measured at 14, 21, 28, and 35 days after planting. ANOVA and Duncan's Multiple Range Test (α = 0.05) revealed significant findings. Biotogrow concentration substantially influenced plant height at 21, 28, and 35 DAP (P < 0.01), leaf number throughout all observation periods (P < 0.05 at 14 DAP; P < 0.01 thereafter), plus shoot and root fresh weight, leaf area, and harvest index (P < 0.01). Fertilization intervals significantly affected all parameters except the shoot-to-root ratio (P < 0.01). Importantly, concentration-interval interactions showed highly significant effects on leaf number at 35 DAP, shoot fresh weight, and leaf area (P < 0.01), with significant impacts on plant height at 28 and 35 DAP, leaf number at 28 DAP, and root fresh weight (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that optimizing both Biotogrow concentration and application timing can significantly enhance lettuce productivity under greenhouse conditions.
