Abstract

Manjemen persediaan bahan penunjang seperti kenari (Canarium indicum L.) memiliki peran penting dalam proses produksi di industri makanan, termasuk pada UMKM Dahlia Bakery. Namun, pengadaan kenari di Dahlia Bakery masih dilakukan secara tidak terstruktur dan bergantung pada kedatangan pemasok tanpa jadwal tetap, sehingga menyebabkan frekuensi pemesanan yang tinggi dan biaya persediaan yang tidak efisien. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut dan menganalisis bagaimana metode Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), Reorder Point (ROP), dan Safety Stock dapat diterapkan dalam menentukan jumlah pembelian optimal, titik pemesanan ulang, serta total biaya persediaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan metode pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dengan penerapan EOQ, jumlah pembelian optimal adalah 167 kg per pesan dengan frekuensi pemesanan 11 kali per tahun, safety stock sebesar 1 kg, dan reorder point sebesar 40 kg. Total biaya persediaan dapat ditekan dari Rp14.246.345 menjadi Rp1.253.250, menghasilkan efisiensi sebesar Rp12.993.095. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa penerapan metode EOQ secara berkelanjutan dapat meningkatkan efisiensi pengelolaan persediaan dan menunjang kelancaran proses produksi di Dahlia Bakery.

Abstract

Regional food security is highly influenced by the availability and distribution of staple foods that are stable and well-monitored. Palu City, as a food-vulnerable area, faces significant challenges in meeting community consumption needs, particularly for strategic commodities such as rice and selar fish. This study aims to analyze the availability and traceability of these strategic commodities in Palu City. A descriptive quantitative approach was used through the Food Balance Sheet (FBS) method combined with supply chain observation. The results showed that in 2024, rice availability reached 56,450 tons and selar/mackerel fish amounted to 3,420 tons. Daily per capita consumption was 399.12 grams for rice and 24.18 grams for selar fish. Rice was supplied from several surrounding districts, mainly Sigi and Parigi Moutong, while selar fish predominantly came from Parigi Moutong. This study highlights the importance of strengthening food distribution and traceability systems to ensure food security and safety in vulnerable areas like Palu City.

Abstract

The distribution of shelled corn in West Malangke District is dominated by intermediaries, resulting in a low farmer's share received by farmers, especially women farmers. This study aims to identify the role of women in the shelled corn distribution chain, analyze marketing margins, and evaluate the profit-to-cost efficiency of each distribution channel in West Malangke District. The results indicate four trading channels, with Channel I as the primary channel, where the highest marketing margin was recorded at IDR 325 per kg, but the lowest farmer's share was only 92.58%. Conversely, Channel IV, which eliminates the role of intermediaries, provided a farmer's share of 100%. The highest profit-to-cost ratio was achieved by village collectors in Channel I (0.68), while wholesalers had a relatively stable profit ratio across channels. These findings suggest that the shorter the distribution chain, the greater the profits received by farmers. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of shortening the distribution chain and empowering women farmers through more efficient market access, as well as the need for policies to improve trading efficiency to support farmer welfare.

Abstract

ABSTRAK Pendapatan usahatani padi sangat dipengaruhi oleh hasil pertanian yang bergantung pada kualitas dan akses terhadap lahan basah. Disparitas pendapatan petani disebabkan oleh perbedaan kondisi tipologi lahan basah seperti pasang surut dan non pasang surut atau lebak yang secara langsung mempengaruhi kemampuan rumah tangga petani untuk membeli dan mengkonsumsi pangan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji pendapatan usahatani padi pada tipologi lahan basah di Kota Palembang. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Kelurahan Karya Jaya dan Kelurahan Keramasan Kecamatan Kertapati Kota Palembang Provinsi Sumatera Selatan. Data yang diambil merupakan data pada tahun 2024. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu Metode survey. Total sampel pada penelitian ini adalah 138 jiwa. hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa pendapatan rumah tangga petani padi di Kota Palembang memiliki rata-rata total pendapatan sebesar Rp73.247.070,23 per tahun. Komponen terbesar berasal dari sektor non-usahatani sebesar 83,61%, disusul oleh usahatani padi sebesar 9,11% dan usahatani non padi sebesar 7,28%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar petani menggantungkan penghasilan utama mereka bukan dari aktivitas pertanian, melainkan dari sektor di luar pertanian, sehingga peran kegiatan non-usahatani sangat dominan dalam menopang ekonomi rumah tangga. Kata kunci: Pendapatan usahatani padi, Pendapatan Non usahatani, Tipologi lahan basah. ABSTRACT Rice farming income is strongly influenced by agricultural yields, which depend on the quality and access to wetlands. Disparities in farmer income are caused by differences in wetland typology conditions, such as tidal and non-tidal, or lebak, which directly affect the ability of farming households to purchase and consume food. This study was conducted to examine rice farming income in wetland typology in Palembang City. This study was conducted in Karya Jaya Village and Keramasan Village, Kertapati District, Palembang City, South Sumatra Province. The data collected were from 2024. The research method used was the survey method. The total sample in this study was 138 people. The results of the study concluded that the average total income of rice farming households in Palembang City was Rp73,247,070.23 per year. The largest component came from the non-farming sector at 83.61%, followed by rice farming at 9.11% and non-rice farming at 7.28%. This indicates that most farmers rely on non-agricultural sectors for their primary income, not agricultural activities. Therefore, non-farm activities play a significant role in supporting the household economy. Keywords: Non-farm income, Rice farming income, Wetland typology.

Abstract

Coffee is an agricultural commodity with high economic value and promising business opportunities, driven by the increasing demand and interest of consumers. One area with significant potential for coffee development is Gunung Geulis, where forest land has been converted into coffee plantations using an agroforestry system. This system is expected to maintain the ecological functions of the area, particularly hydrological services, while also providing economic benefits for the surrounding community. This study aims to examine the implementation process of coffee agroforestry farming in the Gunung Geulis area and determine its sustainability status. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The analysis was conducted using the MDS-Rapcoffe method in R software to assess the level of sustainability and identify key leverage attributes influencing it. The coffee agroforestry farming process in Gunung Geulis includes upstream subsystems, cultivation subsystems, marketing subsystems, and supporting subsystems. The results show that in Jatinangor and Cimanggung Sub-districts within the Gunung Geulis area, the sustainability values are 64,55% and 66,73% respectively, which are categorized as moderately sustainable.
