Abstract

Corn is one of the crops widely planted by farmers in Indonesia, because corn is the second source of carbohydrates as a staple crop to replace rice (Permatasari, 2013). Corn is very popular because of its delicious taste. In addition to its delicious taste, corn also contains many nutrients, such as fiber, protein, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. The processing of Kalamansi orange corn marning products using CaCO3 was carried out, in order to improve the texture and to utilize the typical orange fruit of Bengkulu. As well as being able to make Kalamansi orange corn marning crispy and as a snack that is loved by all groups. This study consisted of 2 treatments, the first treatment using calcium carbonate (CaCO3) consisting of 3 levels, namely: 1%, 3%, 5% and the second treatment using the addition of Kalamansi squash consisting of 2 levels, namely: 25% and 50% so that it becomes 6 treatments. Indicates that the high concentration of Kalamansi squash combined with the addition of CaCO3 in small amounts can increase the high yield of marning. The yield ranges from 78.87% to 91.03%. Water content is 6.57%, fiber content is 1.66%, carbohydrate content is 21.12%, texture content is 1411.3002%, and vitamin C is 0.43%. The organoleptic test results produced have the highest values in color 3.55 (like), aroma 3.15 (somewhat like), texture 3.20 (somewhat like), and taste 3.55 (like). The largest profit obtained from this treatment is Rp. 5,306,064 with a monthly income of Rp. 8,672,064.

Abstract

Agriculture is the main sector that supports the rural economy in North Kolaka Regency, with rice as a staple food commodity for the community. However, population growth, climate change, and the conversion of rice fields are serious challenges to the availability of local rice food. This study aims to analyze the availability of rice food, the need for rice fields, and the carrying capacity status of agricultural land in North Kolaka Regency, as well as projecting the needs of the next five years. The research method uses a descriptive quantitative approach with secondary data from BPS, Bappeda, and the Food Crops and Horticulture Service, as well as primary observations for field verification. The analysis included the calculation of rice food availability based on land productivity, food needs based on per capita consumption, and the Land Carrying Capacity Index (IDDL) with the Odum, Howard, and Issard formula. The results of the study showed that the average availability of rice food reached ±7,000 tons/year, with an uneven distribution between sub-districts. Some areas such as Ranteangin and Batu Putih are in surplus conditions, while other sub-districts tend to have deficits or do not have significant production. The IDDL shows a downward trend due to a reduction in harvest area of about 2.1% in the last five years, while food needs increase as the population grows. Projections over the next five years show that the risk of deficit is even greater if there is no policy intervention. These findings confirm the need for strategies to strengthen regional food security through agricultural intensification (increasing planting index, superior seeds, irrigation efficiency), sustainable rice field protection (LP2B), and diversifying local food. The results of the research are expected to be a reference for local governments in spatial planning, land conversion control, and sustainable food security policy formulation.

Abstract

Study analyzes the behavior of food consumption patterns of families benefiting from the Government Food Reserve Rice (CPP) in Palopo City with a quantitative descriptive approach. Primary data was obtained through a multiple-pass 24-hour food recall survey of 115 beneficiary families spread across three agroecological characteristics: agriculture, fisheries, and others. Food consumption was analyzed based on nine food groups according to the Expected Food Pattern (PPH), concerning the national Nutritional Adequacy Rate (AKG). The results showed that grains, especially milled rice, became the dominant source of food and energy throughout the region, contributing an average of 1644.5 kcal/capita/day, or about two-thirds of total daily energy. Consumption of animal food, especially fish, is relatively high in agricultural and fishery areas, but its contribution to protein fulfillment is not optimal. Consumption of vegetables is considerable in volume but low in energy contribution and does not yet meet the WHO recommendations of ≥400 g/day. The average Energy Adequacy Level (TKE) is 78.3% of AKE, below the Minimum Service Standard of 90%, indicating food insecurity. Analysis between regions shows that agricultural areas have the highest energy intake, while other regions have the lowest. These results indicate a gap in food access, high dependence on a single carbohydrate source, and low food diversification. This study recommends interventions in the form of increasing access to and consumption of animal and vegetable proteins, diversifying carbohydrate sources, and nutrition education based on local wisdom to support sustainable food security among CPP beneficiaries.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors that affect the income of shallot farming in North Kolaka Regency. The independent variables studied included farmer experience (LN_X1), amount of fertilizer (LN_X2), land area (LN_X3), and labor (LN_X4), while dependent variables were shallot farming income (LN_Y). Cobb-Douglas production function methods and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data with the help of SPSS 27. The results of the analysis showed that the four independent variables had a significant influence on farming's income simultaneously, with an F value of 658.017 and a significance of 0.000. The land area variable had the greatest partial influence, with a coefficient of 1.385 and a significance of 0.000, while the variables of labor and fertilizer had a positive influence, with significance of 0.014 and 0.038, respectively. However, the farmer's experience did not affect income (significance 0.374). A coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.989 indicates that the model can explain 98.9% of income variations. Other factors outside the model affect the rest of the variation. The results show that increasing the income of shallot farmers can be achieved through the efficient use of input, as well as the strategic role of land access and labor.

Abstract

The threat of cocoa fruit borer pests (Conopomorpha cramerella) has caused a significant decrease in cocoa productivity in Indonesia. The massive use of synthetic insecticides by farmers has a negative impact on the environment and products. This study aims to formulate an effective and sustainable integrated pest control strategy for cocoa plants in Kodeoha District, North Kolaka Regency, Indonesia. Qualitative and quantitative descriptive research methods were used, with the data analyzed using regression analysis to measure yield loss and SWOT analysis to formulate control strategies. The results show that the most appropriate control strategy is the Grow and Build strategies, which focus on the utilization of internal strengths and external opportunities. This strategy includes increasing the capacity of farmers, providing adequate facilities and infrastructure, and increasing training and mentoring. The implementation of this strategy, combined with the latest control technologies such as biological agents and pheromones, is expected to increase farmers' independence and ensure the sustainability of cocoa production.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the condition of water availability in oil palm areas and assess the potential for its use for more environmentally friendly alternative crops using a water balance-based approach. The research location is in Buntu Babang Village, Bajo District, with primary data consisting of rainfall and climate data from BMKG during the period of 2014–2024. Effective rainfall analysis is conducted using Cropwat 8.0 application, while water availability calculations use the Thornthwaite & Mather water balance method. The research findings indicate that the average annual rainfall is quite high, but its distribution is uneven. The water surplus occurs from November to April, while the period of water deficit occurs from August to September. The water requirement for mature oil palm plants is an average of 82.5 mm/month. The comparison between the availability of water after the needs of oil palm are met and the water needs of alternative crops shows that the potential for intercropping corn and peanuts is limited to the months with water surplus. Corn plants have a higher chance of being developed during the seedling to vegetative phases in the wet period, while peanuts are more suitable during the seedling and flowering phases in the months with adequate water availability.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a rice development strategy in Ranteangin District, North Kolaka Regency, by utilizing local potential while addressing various challenges faced by farmers. The analysis was conducted using the IFAS, EFAS, and SWOT matrices to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The analysis results indicate that the position of rice development is in quadrant V of the IE Matrix, which indicates the need for a hold and hold strategy through increasing internal efficiency, optimizing resources, and utilizing external opportunities. The formulated strategic priorities include maximizing land and irrigation utilization with the support of subsidies and agricultural programs, increasing farmer capacity through training and extension on agricultural modernization, strengthening sustainable market partnerships, and diversifying farmer income sources. The implementation of this strategy is expected to increase productivity, competitiveness, and economic resilience of farmers, while encouraging the failure of rice farming businesses in Ranteangin District. This study also recommends a synergistic role between local governments, agricultural extension workers, farmer groups, farmers, as well as researchers and academics in supporting the success of rice development based on local potential.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the response of various types of vegetable plants, namely cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), to the application of trichocompost made from sago pulp. The use of this organic fertilizer is raised as a solution to address modern agricultural challenges such as soil fertility degradation and dependence on chemical fertilizers. Sago pulp, as an abundant agro-industrial waste, is processed into trichocompost using the antagonistic fungus Trichoderma sp., which not only functions as a decomposer but also as a biological control agent against soil-borne diseases. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the application of Sago Tricocompost has varying effects depending on the type of plant. In cucumber plants, the application of tricocompost, particularly at the highest dosage (P3), consistently shows a very significant effect on vegetative growth (plant height) and harvest yield (fruit weight and production per hectare). This indicates that sago waste tricocompost is very effective as an organic fertilizer to enhance cucumber productivity, likely due to its nutrient content and the microbial activity of Trichoderma that supports growth.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the role of farmer groups in the cocoa revitalization program towards increasing farmer income in Era Baru Village, Kodeoha District, North Kolaka Regency. The method used is a descriptive quantitative approach with paired sample t-test analysis to see the difference in income before and after the program. The results of the study indicate that the cocoa revitalization program has a positive impact on farmer income. The average farmer income increased from Rp 22,302,811 to Rp 23,802,189, with an average difference of Rp 1,479,377.78. The t-test shows a significant value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), which means there is a statistically significant difference between income before and after the program. From the institutional aspect, the average score of farmer group development is in the growth category (56.39%), with extension services having the highest score (76.30%). Meanwhile, aspects of organization and leadership (44.81%), member participation (51.11%), and group performance and results (53.33%) still require strengthening. These results confirm that, in addition to technical improvements in cocoa cultivation, strengthening farmer group institutions is a crucial factor in the program's success. Further strategies such as managerial training, increasing young farmer participation, and strengthening market access and partnerships are needed to ensure the revitalization program's impact is sustainable and equitable across all farmer group members.
