Abstract

Agricultural mechanization used provides benefits in farming, namely cost efficiency. Harvester Combine Machine (HCM) use in rice farming can eliminate harvesting labor. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the impact of HCM use to the rice farming laborers in Durian Seginim Village, and to analyze the adaptation actions taken by the laborers because of the impact of using HCM. The research was conducted in October 2022. The number of respondents was 100 and the data was taken randomly from 192 rice farmers who use HCM. The data analysis method used is descriptive qualitative analysis. The results showed that the use of HCM in rice farming provides benefits for farm owners in savings in harvesting costs of 23.99 percent. However, the use of HCM reduced employment opportunities by 58.72- time allocation of labor/Ha (36.78% of the total farming workforce). Specifically for harvesting workers, labor absorption decreased by 42.70 time allocation of labor/Ha (25.91%) which was dominated by female workers from outside the family. Female workers experienced a decline in their income and contribution to household income by 46.99 percent. The three adaptation actions most frequently carried out by harvesting workers are working in the on-farm agricultural sector outside rice farming (21%), working on land that does not use HCM (17%), and selling large or small of rice stock, user savings, etc. (13%)

Abstract

The agricultural industry is crucial for the national economy's growth, and the government is committed to advancing development policies. However, challenges persist, necessitating collaboration between the private sector, government, and other stakeholders. This study examines the impact of the Corporate Social Responsibility program on farmers' income in North Halmahera Regency. The study was carried out specifically in the districts of Kao Teluk, Malifut, Kao, Kao Barat, and Kao Utara, between December 2022 and March 2023. The data utilized in this study were gathered through interviews and a questionnaire administered to one hundred respondents, specifically farmers who had benefited from the Community Development and Empowerment of Corporate Social Responsibility program and were deliberately selected using a purposive sampling method. The research employed the Structural Equation Model approach for data analysis and processing, utilizing Microsoft Excel and the SmartPLS application version 4. According to the study's findings, farmer participation and perceptions significantly and positively impacted the implementation of the Corporate Social Responsibility program. Similarly, smallholder participation, perceptions, and the execution of the Corporate Social Responsibility program have a substantial and favorable impact on farmers' income. Enhanced farmer participation is directly proportional to improved farmer perception, thereby facilitating the successful execution of the CSR program and guaranteeing favorable outcomes, impacts, and agricultural sustainability-thereby augmenting farmers' incomes.

Abstract

The corn farmer households examined in this study participated in the dryland transmigration program to enhance welfare by furnishing livelihood capital to poor farmer households. This research compares the livelihood capital of corn farmer households in the transmigration areas of Gorontalo and Boalemo districts, Gorontalo, Indonesia, and examines its impact on their livelihood strategy selection. The study involved 240 poor corn farmer households. Data analysis was conducted by computing the livelihood capital index through entropy weighting analysis, followed by multinomial logistic regression analysis to examine the influence of livelihood capital on livelihood strategies. Findings indicate a higher level of livelihood capital in Boalemo Regency than in Gorontalo Regency, with Boalemo District outperforming in physical and human capital. In contrast, the Gorontalo district excels in natural and social capital. However, the financial capital of corn farmer households in both regions still needs to be improved. Natural and human capital significantly influences the likelihood of corn farming households opting for on-farm strategies over a combination of on-farm and off-farm strategies. In the case of on-farm and off-farm strategies, natural capital substantially enhances the probability of corn farmer households selecting both on-farm and off-farm strategies rather than solely on-farm and non-farm strategies. Conversely, physical capital diminishes the likelihood of corn farmer households adopting both on-farm and off-farm strategies compared to the combination of on-farm and non-farm strategies.

Abstract

Soybeans are an essential commodity in the Indonesian economy; therefore, the government encourages soybean cultivation at the farmer level. This article aims to analyze variations in the feasibility level of soybean farming in Indonesia, the distribution of R/C values, and its forming parameters based on the results of a research literature review. This paper also attempts to look at the factors that influence R/C achievement and provide input for similar studies in the future. Literature was taken from the Google Scholar database, which published research on the feasibility of soybean farming in Indonesia, published in journals or proceedings, both in Indonesian and English, and published in 2013-2023. A total of 122 articles were screened, around 51 (113 case studies) for further explanation, consisting of 39 journal articles and 12 proceedings articles. The analysis technique uses CV (coefficient of variation) and simple tabulation. All articles concluded that soybean farming was worth cultivating (R/C > 1), but three articles received an R/C value < 1, or soybean farming was not worth cultivating. The highest R/C value is 3.96, and the lowest is 0.50. In contrast, the CV value of R/C shows the lowest value (of 0.33) compared to the CV values of TR, TC, productivity, and selling price of harvest, meaning the distribution The R/C value of soybean farming over the last ten years tends to be homogeneous (does not vary). High productivity does not indicate high R/C achievement, nor do certain superior varieties always show high R/C. Farming feasibility research needs to explain more fully the parameters that form R/C values, use standard writing standards in writing the units for each parameter, and explain varieties, cultivation techniques, and the conditions of farmers in soybean farming.

Abstract

Inulinase (EC 3.2.1.80) is an enzyme that can hydrolyze inulin into fructose or fructo-oligosaccharides. Using the inulinase enzyme as a catalyst in making inulinase-based fructose can obtain a fructose percentage of 90-95 percent. Inulin is a linear polysaccharide (ß-2,1-linked d-fructose residue terminated by a glucose residue) that accumulates as a storage carbohydrate in plants. One natural source that can produce inulin is bananas. Bananas are a source of inulin which contains around 0.58-1.09 percent. This research used three types of bananas, including Musa X paradisiaca, Musa paradisiaca formatypica, Musa paradisiaca var sapientum. Apart from that, you can also find out the characteristics of the microbes and enzyme activity produced from the three types of bananas. The results of this research show that the three isolated types of banana are capable of producing the inulin ase enzyme which is indicated by the growth of these microbes in ISM media. ISM media (Inulinase Selective Media) is an inulinase mixing media where only inulin-producing microbes can grow on the media. The microbes isolated from the three types of bananas that had the highest inulinase enzyme activity value were Raja Nangka bananas with an enzyme activity value of 0.405 IU/mL. Meanwhile, the lowest inulinase enzyme activity value was in Kepok bananas with an enzyme activity value of 0.088 IU/mL.

Abstract

Tropical regions face threats from pests, leading to significant losses in the global potato supply. Intercropping potatoes with faba beans is being explored to control pest infestations in tropical areas. This study aims to provide insights into pest dynamics and improve pestmanagement strategies for sustainable potato cultivation. The research evaluates five cropping systems, each replicated across seven beds: potato monoculture, alternating growth of potatoes and faba beans at a 2:1 ratio, planting faba beans between the rows of potatoes at a 1:1 ratio, growing faba beans between two beds of potatoes, and cultivating solely faba beans. The study looked at various factors such as the type and intensity of pest attacks on potatoes. It found that planting faba beans alongside potatoes can help reduce aphid (Homoptera: Aphididae) and mirid bug (Hemipetra: Miridae) attacks, but may not affect grasshopper (Orthoptera: Acrididaeand Pyrgomorphidae) attacks. The distance between potato beds and the population of faba bean plants can also influence pest interactions. Understanding these dynamics offers important information for sustainable pest management practices in intercropping systems.

Abstract

The agricultural sector is one of the sectors that makes a large contribution to labor absorption in Indonesia, however data shows a decline in the rate of labor absorption in the agricultural sector, especially among the younger generation. One effort to increase the number of young workers absorbed in the agricultural sector is through agricultural vocational school education which is expected to grow the interest of agricultural vocational school students to work in the agricultural sector in order to overcome the decline in farmer regeneration in Indonesia. The research objectives are to: (1) Identify the interest of agricultural vocational school students in agriculture to work in the agricultural sector, and (2) analyze the factors that influence agricultural vocational school students' interest in working in the agricultural sector. The research was carried out in September 2023 at one of the vocational schools specializing in agricultural skills in Ciamis Regency. The research sample consisted of 78 students who were determined using cluster random sampling. Agricultural vocational school students' interest in working in the agricultural sector was analyzed descriptively, while the factors that influenced agricultural vocational school students' interest in working in the agricultural sector were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The research results show: (1) The majority of agricultural vocational school students who are interested in working in the agricultural sector are in the medium category, and (2) The social environment, community environment and social status have a significant influence on agricultural vocational school students' interest in working in the agricultural sector, while their parents' income has no significant influence.

Abstract

A monophage herbivorous insect called S. pectinicornis can be utilized to biologically control the weed Pistia stratiotes. Insect mass reproduction followed by release into the target weed area is one technique that can be used. The quality of the feed must be taken into consideration during maintenance in order to increase the fitness of S. pectinicornis insects and enable them to function at their best. The fertilization procedure can improve the nutritional value of P. stratiotes as a feed source. The experiment involved applying NPK fertilizer to P. stratiotes at 6 different levels: 0 g (control); 5 g; 10 g; 15 g; 20 g; and 25 g. The findings demonstrated that when NPK fertilizer was applied to Pistia stratiotes, S. pectiniconis larvae, pupae, and imago had a better chance of surviving than controls. S. pectinicornis showed improved insect growth and development since its lifespan was shorter than controls at every developmental stage. The ideal NPK fertilizer dose for maintaining Pistia stratiotes as feed during S. pectinicornis propagation is 15g/20 L of water.

Abstract

Suji leaves contain a green pigment, namely chlorophyll. Suji leaf chlorophyll and its derivative compounds provide health benefits due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. This research aims to produce suji leaf chlorophyll extract yogurt with antioxidant activity, soluble protein levels, and high numbers of lactic acid bacteria. This research used a completely randomized factorial design (CRD) consisting of 2 factors, namely the concentration of added chlorophyll extract (1%, 2%, 3%) and variations in fermentation time (6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours). The research results showed that suji leaf chlorophyll extract yogurt with antioxidant activity, high levels of soluble protein, and a high number of lactic acid bacteria was found in the treatment with the addition of 3 percent chlorophyll and a fermentation time of 10 hours. In this treatment, suji leaf chlorophyll yogurt was obtained with antioxidant activity of 59.20 percent, dissolved protein content of 128.80 mg BSA/100 ml, total sugar content of 71.92 g glucose/100 ml, fat content of 5.91 percent, total chlorophyll of 2 .39 mg/L, viscosity 10.00 cP; color L* (brightness) 77.09, color a* (reddish) -5.80, color b* (yellowish) 9.35 and total Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) around 8.08 Log CFU/mL. Yogurt, with the addition of suji leaf chlorophyll extract, has the potential to be an excellent alternative to functional food for consumption.
