Abstract

The role of local institution linkage greatly determines the sustainability of the national hybrid corn seed production system. Linking and integrating indigenous knowledge and local institution in one program is necessary to support an efficient and effective work system. This study analyzes the linkages between institutions and indigenous knowledge that support the smooth supply of hybrid corn seeds for farmers in remote areas. Using Interpretative Structural Modeling analysis to map institutions into four quadrants (Dependent, Linkage, Autonomous, and Independent). Involved three experts in defining the institutions that play a role in the seed system: government, seed producers, and researchers. The results showed that 19 institutions played an active role, 6 of which were in the Independent quadrant, 9 in the linkage quadrant, 6 in the dependent quadrant, and none in the autonomous quadrant. This means that the identification of related institutions by experts is correct. Based on this mapping, 4 institutions have a very large influence on the development of the corn seed system, namely the Indonesian House of Representatives (IHR), the Planning Bureau (PB), the Directorate General of Food Crops (DGF), and the Seed Certification Inspection Center (SCIC). That institution can encourage the advancement of hybrid corn seed production systems. However, their dependence on external environmental influences is still high, so their independence is relatively low. Then the institutions that must be conditioned that they still have high Driving Power and Dependence Power are the Agency for Agricultural Research and Development (AARD), the National Seed Company (NSC), the Seed Grower Group (SGG), the Governor (GV), and the Provincial Agricultural Services (PAS). That institution only needs maintenance to continue excelling in providing farmers with corn seeds. The role of local institutions and indigenous culture (LG, EWF, EAO, and LFG) have not been seen to be involved in strengthening the seed system even though its independence is very high, so it is feared that the seed system is unsustainable.

Abstract

Krayan's main commodity is Adan rice which has received a Geographical Indication Certification (GIS). This rice has high economic value and competitiveness because it is cultivated organically. Therefore, local rice commodities need to be cultivated in a sustainable manner. One dimension of local rice sustainability is the institutional dimension. The institutional dimension is an important for sustainable agricultural development because it plays a supporting role in the success of farming. This study aims to analyze the sustainability of local Adan rice farming on the institutional dimension in Krayan District, Nunukan Regency, Indonesia. This research was completed by using the Multi Dimensional Scaling Method and sample was obtained of 50 respondents. The results showed that the institutional dimension of local Adan rice farming in Krayan District was 58.41 which means the institutional dimension has an affect on the sustainability of Adan rice farming in Krayan sub-district with a quite sustainable status. The results of the analysis of sensitive attributes on the institutional dimension are capital loans from financial institutions (banks or other capital assistance institutions), the existence of cooperative institutions, capital assistance from cooperatives and Membership in indigenous forums. This implies that, considering all sensitive attributes of institutional dimension are important aspect to support the sustainability of local Adan rice farming.

Abstract

The Agroforestry and intercropping farming systems are carried out by farmers in managing their cocoa cultivations due to limited land and the availability of commodities to support household needs. This system is maintained because it impacts increasing farmers’ income, maintaining local horticulture commodities and fulfilling the social needs of these commodities.  This research uses a qualitative approach, with Focus Group Discussions involving farmers, NGOs, government, and other stakeholders. The results showed that agroforestry as an alternative to indigenous farming for cocoa farmers in Polewali Mandar Regency positively impacted farmer institutions, increasing income and meeting the needs of farmer households. The existence of farmer-NGO partnerships has helped change farmer institutions. Still, it has not altered local institutions that have become farmers' habits in managing farmland, including utilizing cocoa farms by intercropping. There has been a significant change on cocoa farmers from producing non-fermented cocoa to fermented and certified cocoa. Besides that, there is an increase in farmers' income by integrating cocoa - goats by utilizing shade trees in cocoa gardens as animal feed, producing organic fertilizers and pesticides from goat urine, and creating a market for inter-crop commodities such as cocoa, coconut, ginger, and locally grown fruits. all are in the same garden. Agroforestry as an alternative to indigenous farming must be maintained because it can increase farmers' income, also offers solutions to land degradation, and provides environmental services so it is expected to be able to guarantee sustainability and on the one hand, continue to support the achievement of an inclusive market for cocoa.

Abstract

Salak (Salacca zalacca) is a cultivated plant species with development areas spanning more than half of Indonesia's provinces. It is not surprising since salak is a tropical plant native to Indonesia, managed traditionally for generations as an indigenous agricultural system. Learning from experience, around the 1980s, the peak popularity of salak commodities in this area has succeeded in becoming a commodity as a regional icon of Pinrang Regency, South Sulawesi, called salak lasape. Although salak lasape is better known for its distinctive aroma, the quantity of production in Pinrang Regency is declining. This research aims to find appropriate strategic programs in ensuring the availability of food, especially fruit, and to restore the popularity of salak lasape as a regional icon in South Sulawesi. This research was conducted through an expert system approach. Data were obtained through resource persons from several institutions/agencies related to the development of horticultural commodities using the Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) analysis method. The results show that of the 14 sub-elements analyzed, there are nine of them that can be set as strategic programs in restoring the popularity of salak lasape, namely: (1) increasing the commitment of government agencies, (2) developing the marketing sector, (3) rehabilitating/rejuvenating salak plantations, (4) developing processed household products, (5) increasing farmers' knowledge and skills, (6) increasing the role of extension/mentoring, (7) fostering farmer groups/local wisdom, (8) Effectivize the role of the Industry and Trade Office, and (9) increasing the role and responsibility of the Plantation Office. Among the nine programs, two are key programs, namely: increasing the commitment of government agencies and rehabilitating/rejuvenating salak plantations. The increased role of government agencies indicates that the implementation of strategic programs that are the research findings should be under the control of institutional strengthening of horticultural commodities.

Abstract

This paper deals with sustainability of coffee as indigenous farming toward digital technology. Indigenous agricultural knowledge (IAK) has long been a driving force in agricultural development. IAK is systematic and collective knowledge, practices, and beliefs about the relationship between living beings and their environment that have been passed down from generation to generation through cultural transmission. This study employed a comprehensive literature review to investigate the publisher of publications with identical titles Some of the knowledge that still exists on indigenous agriculture in communities can be a setback to agricultural progress as it has the potential to become several barriers that development strategies have neutralized over the years. Modern technology is having a growing impact on how traditional agriculture is aided. With the help of contemporary technology, farmers can now access a variety of data about what people in the world need and prepare for another challenge in the competition in the same business of agriculture. This is because they have considerable market potential and resources that can contribute to sustainable economic growth. With today's technological advancements, indigenous-based agriculture can keep up with digital technological advances in helping agriculture-dependent communities increase the productivity of arabica coffee and improve farmers' incomes. The role of digital will not eliminate the part of traditional custom-based agriculture. Still, it can maintain and preserve the custom as a cultural heritage while not forgetting the main objectives needed by people who depend on agriculture.

Abstract

Climate change, such as reduced rain intensity, is the biggest reason for the decline in crop yields and impacts farmers' income. This study aimed to analyze the adaptation strategies of households of wet-rice and field rice farmers in the face of climate change (drought and flood). The research was conducted in Matakali Sub-district, Polewali Mandar Regency, with the research design of survey method and in-depth interviews on Farmer Households as the unit of analysis. The results showed that the adaptation strategies carried out by households of wet-rice and field rice farmers in Matakali District to minimize the negative impacts of climate change include: 1) survival strategy, 2) consolidation strategy, and 3) accumulation strategy. Survival strategies carried out by households of wet-rice and field rice farmers in maintaining their survival are by diversifying their work, economic adaptation, and getting assistance from the government. The consolidation strategy is carried out by households of wet rice and field rice farmers who can still fulfill their needs despite experiencing crop failure. Farming communities that apply consolidation strategies borrow money from relatives, families, banks, and cooperatives. Accommodation strategies are carried out by groups of farming households, namely opening a grocery store business. The application of survival, consolidation, and accumulation strategies is sometimes still needed to meet all the needs of the households of wet-rice and field rice farmers.

Abstract

The cattle-oil palm integration system refers to a farming approach that involves the integration of the plantation sub-sector and the livestock sub-sector. Can be achieved by utilizing the vacant area beneath oil palm plants to graze beef cattle. The combination of oil palm and cattle production systems has significant social, economic, and ecological standpoints. The program strategy for establishing a cattle-oil palm integration system highlights the importance of institutional involvement in supporting a priority program that has achieved success in multiple areas. The study was conducted in the Tanah Bumbu District in the South Kalimantan Province. The place selection was conducted via purposive sampling, considering its potential as a prototype for combining cattle and oil palm development. This study employs Interpretative Structural Modeling to categorize local institutions into four quadrants: dependent, linked, autonomous, and independent. Engaging three specialists in delineating the entities involved in the development of the cattle-oil palm integration system, specifically the central government, regional government, community, business sector, and universities. The research findings indicate the presence of 17 active institutions, distributed as follows: 2 in the independent quadrant, 9 in the linkage quadrant, 6 in the dependent quadrant, and none in the autonomous quadrant. Thus, the essential requirements for enhancing this establishment have been delineated. The institutional strengthening strategy was devised using a three-step approach, which involved the establishment of small farmer corporations, the establishment of autonomous cooperatives, and the revitalization of Indonesian planters and breeders associations. We analyze and subsequently include multiple entities that contribute to the enhancement of individual empowerment. The suggested approach for enhancing institutional development necessitates the cooperation of cooperatives, smallholder groups, and palm oil mills, with the assistance of regulatory authorities, financial institutions, and input suppliers, through mutually advantageous partnership initiatives.

Abstract

The potential of Indonesian marine and Indonesian fisheries is so great, especially now that this potential has been supported by various program policies and development activities in the marine and fisheries sector, however, in line with such rapid changes in all fields both on an international and national scale, the program policies and development activities of the marine and fisheries sector require adjustments or changes in order to meet economic needs that are more focused on improvement of people's welfare. Supporting the role of local institutions in marketing seaweed which is one of the marine resource commodities that has high economic value, is easy to cultivate and relatively low production costs. Therefore, this study aims to find out what is the role of local institutions in seaweed marketing. The data analysis technique used is qualitative analysis whose analytics are interpretive and interpretive understanding or verstehen. The qualitative definition here means that the data presented is in the form of words into the form of expanded text instead of numbers Data from interviews and observations are written in a detailed field note and then analyzed qualitatively. To obtain accurate data. The results showed that the role of local institutions in terms of seaweed marketing, namely formal institutions, especially cooperatives, has not been well institutionalized among the community in Jeneponto Regency because there is still a lack of farmers who are interested in participating in the cooperative, for non-formal institutions only in marketing activities. So that local institutions in Jeneponto district, both formal and informal, have not been able to fully support seaweed cultivation activities, especially in seaweed marketing.
