Abstract

Sustainable agricultural ecotourism in small?island environments requires management systems that integrate animal welfare, conservation, and local livelihood goals. This study aims to design a practical, community?based model for agricultural ecotourism centred on Bali cattle husbandry in Sakti Village by linking welfare?oriented pen design, feeding management, and governance processes to broader ecological and cultural objectives. The research employed a design?science approach supported by spatial planning, participatory governance, and field?based assessments to develop siting standards, construction guidelines, operational protocols, and monitoring systems suited to island conditions. Results show that appropriate roofing, ventilation, pen dimensions, sanitation systems, and continuous water access significantly improved cattle comfort, biosecurity, and visitor safety, while balanced feeding strategies supported stable growth and resilience across seasons. Waste?to?resource practices strengthened circularity, and community involvement enhanced policy coherence, social acceptance, and long?term feasibility. These findings illustrate that well?designed husbandry standards can simultaneously improve animal welfare, enrich visitor interpretation, and support community benefits when embedded within adaptive governance. Overall, the study provides an integrated framework for developing livestock?based agricultural ecotourism on small islands and demonstrates its potential to align tourism development with conservation aims, cultural heritage, and rural prosperity.

Abstract

Industrial batik wastewater often contains elevated concentrations of heavy metals, particularly Cr3+ and Cd2+, which pose serious risks to aquatic environments due to their toxicity, persistence, and non-biodegradable nature. Effective treatment technologies are therefore essential. Electrocoagulation represents a promising approach, as it is a redox-based process that employs the electrolytic dissolution of Al–Zn electrodes to generate in situ aluminum hydroxide coagulants. These coagulants effectively adsorb, destabilise, and precipitate dissolved heavy metal ions. This study evaluates the effects of applied voltage and electrolysis time on the performance of the electrocoagulation process for heavy metal removal from batik wastewater under batch conditions. Experiments were conducted at voltages ranging from 10 to 50 V, electrolysis times of 80–160 minutes, and an electrode spacing of 2 cm. Optimal performance was achieved at 50 V and 160 minutes, reducing Cr3+ concentrations from 3.78 mg/L to 0.031 mg/L, Cd2+ from 2.55 mg/L to 0.021 mg/L, and total suspended solids (TSS) from 203.77 mg/L to 39 mg/L. These findings demonstrate that electrocoagulation offers significant advantages, including in situ coagulant generation without external chemical addition, formation of stable flocs, and high efficiency in separating heavy metal contaminants.

Abstract

College students’ mental health has become an increasingly prominent issue in recent years due to the rising prevalence of psychological problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. Early detection efforts are essential to prevent the more serious consequences of these conditions. This study aims to analyze the use of digital platforms as an early screening tool for suicide risk among college students. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, involving 225 students who participated in an online screening process. The instrument used in this study was the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation, which was distributed through an online questionnaire using Google Forms. The results showed that the majority of respondents were in the low-risk category (200 respondents), while 23 respondents were classified as moderate risk and 2 respondents as high risk. These findings suggest that digital platforms can be utilized as an effective means of conducting early screening for college students’ mental health. The use of digital-based screening enables faster risk identification and allows researchers to reach a wider range of respondents, thereby supporting efforts to prevent mental health problems in higher education environments. Overall, this study highlights the value of integrating digital screening into university mental health systems and underscores the importance of further developing technology?supported prevention strategies in higher education settings.

Abstract

Classic issues in Indonesia's rice agro-industry supply chain include fragmented distribution channels, price volatility, and a lack of quality assurance (traceability) for consumers. While there are several digital solutions out there, including agricultural e-commerce and QR Code-based tracking systems, the majority of these solutions are operating in silos. This article reviews the state of the art of digital technologies for rice commodities and proposes a framework based on Digital Business Ecosystem (DBE). Building on a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 20 selected studies (2016-2025), the research highlights three main trends: (1) the predominance of e-commerce platforms oriented towards final sales, (2) the establishment of technical traceability systems that are not yet market-integrated, and (3) poor adoption of ecosystem strategies. A unified digital ecosystem integration between production management systems (on-farm), quality validation (traceability), and market platforms (marketplaces) is deemed to be crucial for enhancing competitiveness among producers, while also securing consumer trust.

Abstract

This study discusses the design and development of an automatic sliding garage door system powered by a three-phase electric motor and controlled via a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) based on an Outseal Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). The system is engineered to enhance operational efficiency and convenience by utilizing a remote control as the primary trigger for opening and closing the door. Using a VFD enables flexible motor speed regulation, resulting in smoother, safer door movement. The Outseal PLC serves as the central controller, integrating signals from the remote control and automatically managing the operation of both the VFD and the three-phase motor. Testing results demonstrate that the system operates with fast response, stability, and reliability under various conditions. At a VFD frequency setting of 3 Hz, the motor runs at 90 rpm, achieving an open/close cycle time of 13 seconds. When the frequency is increased to 3.5 Hz, the motor speed rises to 105 rpm, reducing the cycle time to 11 seconds.

Abstract

This study examines the determinants of young agripreneur capacity in the horticultural sector of Purbalingga Regency, emphasising the moderating role of climate change—an aspect rarely integrated into previous studies that predominantly focus on the direct determinants of young farmers’ capacity. Using a Partial Least Square–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) approach, this study analyzes the effects of farmer characteristics, external support, and the role of extension agents within a moderated structural framework. Data were collected from 100 young horticultural farmers in the villages of Kutabawa and Serang using purposive sampling. The results show that farmer characteristics (? = 0.267; p = 0.039), external support (? = 0.298; p = 0.009), and the role of extension agents (? = 0.261; p = 0.014) have positive and significant effects on agripreneur capacity, with the model explaining 46.1% of the variance (R² = 0.461). Climate change does not have a direct effect (? = 0.107; p = 0.269), but it significantly moderates the relationship between farmer characteristics and agripreneur capacity (? = 0.245; p = 0.044). However, it does not moderate the influence of external support (? = -0.189; p = 0.065) or the role of extension agents (? = 0.034; p = 0.740). These findings demonstrate that climate change functions as a conditional strengthening factor for individual-based capacity rather than as an institutional support mechanism. The study highlights that strengthening young agripreneur capacity requires prioritizing farmer characteristics, improving the effectiveness of external support, and enhancing adaptive extension services aligned with climate challenges.

Abstract

The increase in COVID-19 cases also increases waste production, including mask waste. The use of masks is one of the steps to mitigate transmission during the pandemic. Used masks, on the other hand, are a source of environmental pollution and can facilitate the spread of COVID-19. The study was prepared to evaluate efforts to mitigate COVID-19 spread through mask waste management. This study was compiled using observation methods, literature studies and secondary data collection to strengthen the observation results. As a result, the Denpasar City Government has mitigated the spread of COVID-19 through socialization and massive control of health protocols up to the village level. Alternative mitigation measures to curb the spread of COVID-19 through mask waste management have not been implemented, despite the Ministry of Environment and Forestry's circular letter Number SE.3 / MENLHK / PSLB3 / PLB.3 / 3/2021. Mask waste at the household level is still mixed with household waste, and there is no unavailability of used mask shelters in public facility areas. This phenomenon is thought to have contributed to cases of transmission between family members or family clusters, office clusters, school clusters, market clusters, and religious ceremonial clusters  Contribution to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):SDG 3: Good Health and Well-BeingSDG 6: Clean Water and SanitationSDG 11: Sustainable Cities and CommunitiesSDG 15: Life on Land

Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve students' financial literacy at the Special Branch of Muhammadiyah (PCIM) in Saudi Arabia through training in basic financial management and sharia-based investment. The program was held at the PCIM Saudi Arabia Centre (Rumah Buya Hamka), Medina, on November 11, 2025, and involved collaboration among three universities: Muhammadiyah University Makassar, Muhammadiyah University Buton, and Alkhairaat University. The methodological approach used was participatory-educational with interactive lectures, discussions, simulations, and hands-on practice. The activity results showed a significant increase in participants' conceptual understanding and practical skills in budgeting, cash flow management, financial planning, and recognising safe and productive sharia-compliant investment instruments. In addition, this activity strengthened students' ethical awareness and financial responsibility by integrating Islamic values into each training session. This program contributes to strengthening the economic capacity of diaspora students and strengthening collaborative networks across universities and the Muhammadiyah community in Saudi Arabia. Thus, this activity has the potential to serve as a model for community service grounded in adaptive, applicable, and sustainable Islamic financial literacy, relevant for replication among Indonesian student communities in various countries.

Abstract

This study quantified greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from an apartment-scale aerobic Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) in Surabaya using the 2019 IPCC Guidelines combined with a Scope 1–Scope 2 accounting framework. Direct emissions (Scope 1) consisted of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) generated from biological treatment processes, while indirect emissions (Scope 2) were associated with operational electricity consumption. Activity data from 2023–2025 included occupancy levels, wastewater flow rates, effluent quality, and equipment operation. Results showed that Scope 1 emissions increased from 6,689 to 8,256 kg CO2-eq/year due to rising occupancy, whereas Scope 2 emissions from electricity remained stable at 65,821 kg CO2/year. Total emissions ranged from 72,510 to 74,077 kg CO2-eq/year, with electricity contributing approximately 90% of the overall GHG profile. Per-capita emission intensity decreased from 161.5 to 133.7 kg CO2-eq/person/year as occupancy increased, while energy demand remained constant. These findings demonstrate that electricity use—particularly aeration energy—dominates the carbon footprint of apartment-scale aerobic STPs. The study highlights the importance of facility-level GHG inventories and indicates that energy efficiency improvement represents the most effective mitigation strategy for residential wastewater treatment systems.
