Abstract

Potato is cultivated as the main tuber crop which is essential for ethnic farmers’ household income in Southern Shan State, Myanmar. Most ethnic farmers use chemicals widely to enhance crop yield and reduce pests. Overuse and misuse of pesticides could lead to a series of health impacts and environmental issues. The main aim of the study is to explore farmers’ current practices and knowledge level on pesticides in potato production. The participants of 100 farmers were chosen from each village with a cluster and purposive sampling technique using structured questionnaires to collect the data from a village in Kalaw Township. The finding showed that 72% of farmers use only chemical pesticides due to more effective and received training from pesticide companies’ staff and whereas only 3% received information from governmental officials. Reasons to use alternative methods, types of alternative methods and where farmers learned alternative methods were significantly related to pest control methods. Farm experience in farmers was not associated with pest control methods. This study will help extension workers to provide appropriate training and improve farmers’ knowledge of pest control management for the highland crop.

Abstract

Sustainable tourism requires valuable and useful resources, balances people's social, economic, and environmental goals, and realizes the carrying capacity of resources. This paper examines the tourism situation in the City of Banjarnegara, Central Java, Indonesia, using the three pillars of sustainable tourism: Social, Economic and Environmental. This study aims to examine sustainable tourism in Banjarnegara by following indicators from the Global Council on Sustainable Tourism Destinations Criteria (GSTC-D) and publications in international journals using the keyword "indicator of sustainable tourism". The sampling technique used stakeholder analysis with purposive sampling by 21 expert respondents who have been involved in the world of tourism for approximately five years. Analysis of conditions in Banjarnegara compared with available indicators, then data validation by key stakeholder interviewing and respondents. The assessment of the indicators was followed by a questionnaire based on indicators; the measurement of indicators was carried out using a 5-point Likert scale by stakeholders to assess opinions from strongly disagree to strongly agree to obtain results where sustainable tourism indicators can become important indicators in Banjarnegara. In the end, the most important social, economic, and environmental indicators produced in this study can be used as sustainable tourism standards in Banjarnegara tourism development. Based on the assessment of social indicator questionnaire data, there are four social indicators in the strongly agree category with Total percentage of 89.67%. Based on the assessment of economic indicator questionnaire data, there are six economic indicators in the strongly agree category with total percentage of 87.94 %. Based on the assessment of environmental indicator questionnaire data, there are five economic indicators in the strongly agree category with total percentage of 86.27%.

Abstract

According to the World Bank's Climate Change Knowledge Portal in 2020, the increase in annual temperature in Indonesia, which tends to rise by 0.3°C, is consistent with the Urban Heat phenomenon. Population growth and shifting land cover contribute to annual temperature fluctuations by reducing the amount of vegetated land. The increase in temperature in the urban environment has particular impacts on the community in terms of environmental changes. The term "Urban Heat Signature" refers to land cover in a localized urban environment with natural consequences due to solar radiation and high-low temperature values. This study was conducted in Pamoyanan Village, Cianjur District, by analyzing Land Surface Temperature images derived from Landsat OLI TIRS images, collecting air temperature measurements, and spreading field surveys about human perceptions. According to the processing results, the maximum temperature is greater than 30°C. The air temperature ranges from a maximum of 34.8°C in open land to a minimum of 27.4°C in medium vegetation. If this is the case, then the perception of human temperature significantly impacts comfort and the growing tendency for people to sweat in society.

Abstract

Commercial areas refer to specific zones designated for business activities, such as trade, retail, and industry, which play a critical role in supporting regional economic development. In the case of Serang City, the government has planned its development as a hub for commerce and industry. However, selecting an optimal location for commercial areas involves addressing challenges related to multiple criteria and alternative options, each with varying advantages and trade-offs, which often complicates the decision-making process. This research aims to analyze spatial modeling using simulations based on the Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) method, supported by ILWIS software to determine the most suitable locations. The results indicate that simulations A, B, C, and D effectively identify areas suitable for commercial development. Among these, simulation C, which emphasizes carrying capacity and land use variables, proved most accurate, identifying a potential area of 7,042.02 hectares across Serang and Cipokjaya Regencies. The study concludes that the SMCE method offers a robust framework for developing simulation models that assist in policy decision-making. Future research is recommended to incorporate additional parameters to enhance the precision and comprehensiveness of determining the best commercial locations
