Abstract

This study aims to analyze the processing techniques of cocoa beans in Neniari Village, Seram Barat District, including harvesting, fermentation, peeling, and drying. The research method used is a descriptive approach with interviews and field observations involving 12 cocoa farmers. The results show that farmers are aware of the signs of ripe cocoa fruits, but the processing techniques still rely on traditional methods. Most farmers use sunlight for drying cocoa beans and simple tools like machetes for harvesting and peeling. Inadequate fermentation and drying techniques affect the quality of cocoa beans. It is recommended that farmers receive training on more modern processing techniques to improve the quality of cocoa beans and competitiveness in the global market.

Abstract

Population growth is a crucial factor influencing the development of settlements, particularly in rural areas. This study analyzes the impact of population growth on settlement development in Itawaka Village, East Saparua District, from 2014 to 2023. The research employs a quantitative approach using simple linear regression analysis to measure the extent to which population changes affect settlement expansion and infrastructure development. The results indicate that the highest population was recorded in 2018 at 2,099 inhabitants, followed by a significant decline, reaching 1,882 in 2023. The analysis reveals a strong correlation between population growth and settlement expansion, with an R-square value of 0.699, meaning that 69.9% of settlement development variations can be explained by demographic changes. The findings highlight the need for sustainable settlement planning to address population fluctuations and ensure balanced infrastructure development. This study contributes to understanding the relationship between demographic trends and spatial planning in coastal rural areas, providing insights for policymakers in formulating sustainable settlement strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model in improving students' learning outcomes and critical thinking skills in the Social Studies-Geography subject at SMP Negeri 77 Maluku Tengah. The research approach used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) with two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 13 eighth-grade students. Data were collected through learning outcome tests, student activity observations, and teacher interviews. The results showed that the implementation of the PBL model increased students' active engagement in learning, improved conceptual understanding, and developed critical thinking skills. In the first cycle, most students still had difficulty analyzing the given problems, while in the second cycle, there was a significant improvement in problem-solving, argumentation, and conceptual understanding. The average student score increased from 70.37% in the first cycle to 83.84% in the second cycle. In conclusion, the PBL learning model is proven to be effective.

Abstract

Indonesia faces a high risk of natural disasters, making disaster mitigation education crucial. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a geography-based learning module in enhancing students’ understanding of disaster mitigation at SMA Negeri 3 Ambon. A mix methods approach was employed, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Data were collected through pretests, posttests, observations, and interviews. The results showed a 39.68% increase in average posttest scores, indicating improved student comprehension. Observations revealed that students became more engaged in discussions and simulations after using the learning module. Interviews with teachers highlighted that the module facilitated more systematic and practical delivery of materials. In conclusion, the geography-based learning module effectively enhances disaster mitigation understanding. However, further support in teacher training and curriculum refinement is needed to optimize its implementation

Abstract

Effective agricultural land management plays a crucial role in improving crop production and farmers' welfare. This study aims to analyze the factors affecting agricultural productivity in Waimital Village, Kairatu District, West Seram Regency. The research method employed a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis to measure the relationship between land management variables and agricultural yield. The findings indicate that the use of organic fertilizers, efficient irrigation systems, and crop rotation positively impact harvest outcomes. Furthermore, limited access to technology and agricultural extension services remain significant challenges for farmers in increasing productivity. Therefore, government and academic interventions are required to accelerate the adoption of modern agricultural technologies. This study concludes that optimizing land management can enhance food security and farmers' well-being in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Sopi production in Hatusua Village is a traditional economic activity that contributes significantly to household income. This study aims to evaluate the contribution of sopi enterprises to family income and assess their viability using a descriptive quantitative approach. The sample consisted of ten sopi farmers selected through total sampling, with data collected via observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis employed the Benefit-Cost Ratio (B/C Ratio) method. The findings revealed that the average weekly income of farmers reached IDR 1,200,000, yet all respondents recorded B/C values below 1, indicating that the enterprise is not financially viable. The main contributing factors include high fuel costs, reliance on manual tools, and limited market access. While sopi holds strong economic and cultural potential, strategic improvements through training, appropriate technology adoption, product legalization.
