Abstract

This study investigates the economic feasibility of using modern agricultural machinery in oil palm plantations in South Sumatra. A quantitative approach was employed, involving 40 samples collected through a structured questionnaire utilizing a Likert scale from 1 to 5. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 26, focusing on key economic indicators such as production efficiency, cost savings, and profitability. The results revealed strong positive and significant relationships between the use of modern machinery and all three economic indicators. The findings suggest that modern agricultural machinery significantly enhances economic performance in oil palm plantations, making it a viable investment for improving productivity and profitability. These insights provide valuable guidance for plantation owners and policymakers in promoting the adoption of advanced agricultural technology in the region.

Abstract

The increasing demand for sustainable food production has led to a growing interest in the utilization of agricultural wastes as alternative raw materials in the fermentation industry. This systematic literature review examines the potential of agricultural by-products, such as fruit peels, vegetable scraps, and cereal residues, as substrates for fermented food production. By analyzing a wide range of studies, this review identifies the types of agricultural wastes successfully used, the fermentation processes involved, and the benefits derived from these practices, including waste reduction, cost savings, and nutritional enhancement. The review also highlights the challenges associated with the variability in waste composition, logistical constraints, and consumer acceptance. The findings suggest that the utilization of agricultural wastes in fermented food production not only contributes to environmental sustainability but also offers economic and nutritional benefits. However, further research is needed to optimize fermentation processes, assess economic feasibility, and enhance consumer acceptance. This review provides valuable insights for researchers, industry stakeholders, and policymakers interested in promoting sustainable food production practices.

Abstract

This study provides a comparative analysis of the productivity of organic and conventional maize farming in East Java, employing a quantitative approach with 40 sample farms. Utilizing a Likert scale from 1 to 5, data were collected and analyzed using SPSS version 26. The findings indicate that while conventional farming demonstrates higher average yields, the difference in productivity between the two systems is statistically significant but not substantial. Organic farming shows competitive productivity, particularly in the long term, due to its positive impact on soil health and sustainability. The study highlights the potential of organic farming as a viable alternative to conventional practices in maize cultivation, offering valuable insights for policymakers and farmers in East Java.

Abstract

This bibliometric study examines the evolution of agroforestry research over several decades, analyzing publication patterns, citation trends, and collaboration networks. Utilizing data from a comprehensive database, we identified major thematic areas including sustainability, carbon management, and the socioeconomic impacts on smallholder farmers. The analysis reveals a significant growth in the focus on environmental benefits such as carbon sequestration and biodiversity conservation within agroforestry systems. Additionally, the study highlights the key roles of influential researchers and outlines the dynamic collaboration networks that drive the field. By mapping the intellectual landscape of agroforestry research, this study provides both theoretical insights and practical implications, emphasizing the contribution of agroforestry to sustainable land management and climate change mitigation. This research not only charts past and current trends but also identifies under-researched areas, suggesting directions for future investigation.

Abstract

This study employs a bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer to visualize the authorship network within the domain of precision agriculture, identifying key researchers and their collaborative relationships. By mapping the connections based on publications from a specified time period, the analysis highlights the central figures like Erickson, B, who play pivotal roles in the network and reveals the interlinkages among various contributors. The study provides insights into the structural dynamics of research collaborations and elucidates the influence patterns among the scholars. Despite the inherent limitations such as database selection bias and the static nature of the bibliometric snapshot, the results offer valuable implications for enhancing research collaboration, academic planning, and strategic positioning within the scholarly community. This approach not only aids in recognizing influential entities and emerging talents but also assists institutions and funders in making informed decisions that could drive impactful research in precision agriculture.
