Abstract

Greenhouse technology presents a promising solution to the challenges of agricultural productivity and sustainability, particularly for small-scale farmers facing climate change, resource constraints, and unpredictable weather conditions. This study was the first attempt to investigate the impact of greenhouse adoption on farmers’ welfare which focused on household income per capita and food security status. The samples of this study were conducted 201 melon farmers in East Java, Indonesia. This study analyzed data to discern the effects of greenhouse adoption on farmers’ welfare by employing endogenous switching regression to address potential endogeneity issues. The analysis revealed that greenhouse adoption significantly and positively affected household income per capita and food security status. Through rigorous data analysis, this research had contributed valuable insights into the socio-economic implications of adopting greenhouses in agricultural practices. The results highlighted the role of greenhouses in boosting farmers’ resilience, improving livelihoods, and enhancing food security, providing a strong case for promoting greenhouse technology in rural agricultural practices.

Abstract

Despite the potential to grow and earn more profit through export, the seaweed sector is dealing with several difficulties, including challenges in the production faced by smallholder farmers. Farmers have managed their seaweed farming by implementing several risk management practices. This study examined the effect of farmers’ risk management practices on seaweed production and the determinants of seaweed production risk management practices. This study utilized data from a survey of 100 farmers in Takalar Regency, a key seaweed production area in Indonesia, along with insights from a focus group discussion (FGD) with seaweed experts. A Cobb-Douglas production function and logistic regression were employed. The findings unveiled that seaweed farmers’ risk management practices had positively boosted their seaweed production. The findings also highlighted that such factors as education level, farming experience, farm size, and weather risk influenced the farmers’ practices of dealing with the production risk. Understanding the effect of risk management practices on farm production and the determinants of production risk management practices could assist policymakers in designing effective policies and farmers in being more innovative in their coping strategies to mitigate production risk, leading to improved productivity and income. The prioritized risk management practices for seaweed production focused on diversifying planting locations and harvesting under hot temperatures to mitigate production risks. In contrast, practices such as changing seeds, relocating, and adjusting cultivation methods were also crucial but less widely applied.

Abstract

The global community recognizes social forestry as a way to improve community welfare through sustainable forest programs. In Indonesia, this program aims to involve local communities in forest management, providing multiple benefits such as forest preservation, improved livelihoods, and poverty reduction. This study aims to analyze the sustainability of a social forestry program for both Community Forest (CF) and non-Community Forest (non-CF) schemes (Village Forests and Community Plantation Forests). The research was conducted in Sijunjung, Solok, Padang Pariaman Regencies, and Padang City, involving a sample of 33 CF participants and 65 non-CF participants selected through snowball sampling. The data were collected through direct interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) at provincial and regency levels. The business sustainability assessment utilized multidimensional indicators (MDS) across three dimensions: economic, social, and institutional and analyzed using Rap_MForest. The findings revealed that social forestry program had a moderate level of sustainability in all dimensions; however, the social dimension showed lower sustainability, owing to limited community participation and ineffective empowerment of non-group members. The sustainability index of CF scheme was higher than the non-CF (VF and CPF). The CF model emerged as the more adaptable and comprehensive approach, promoting both environmental conservation and socioeconomic development. Therefore, prioritizing the institutional strengthening of VF and CPF became crucial. In addition, enhancing the active role and involvement of group members in the social forestry program within the social dimension was also essential. To enhance sustainability, efforts should be focused on strengthening mentoring and counseling programs for social forestry groups involved in state forest and community plantation initiatives.

Abstract

Wool production has great potential to alleviate food insecurity and poverty in South Africa, but declining national output poses significant challenges. The lack of comprehensive studies on macro-environmental factors and efficiency in smallholder wool farming hinders effective policymaking and resource allocation to improve sustainability. This study conducted a PESTEL analysis and introduced a model to improve the efficiency of smallholder wool farming and rural livelihoods through the evaluation of the industrial macro environment. The PESTEL analysis assisted farmers in identifying future macroeconomic variables to ensure the proper development and sustainability of their wool farming. The analysis uncovered a negative correlation between the efficiency of wool farming and the lack of access to information, markets and credit, feed costs, inadequate extension services, and farmers’ lack of knowledge. Consequently, this study advocated for the training of smallholder wool farmers to improve their wool quality, extension services, and access to information, markets, and credit. This research further proposed minimum operational and transaction costs to enhance the overall efficiency of smallholder wool production in Thaba ‘Nchu and Botshabelo.

Abstract

High demand for cassava in domestic and international markets has raised concerns related to the long-term sustainability of cassava agribusiness. The multifaceted character of sustainability demonstrates the interconnected sustainability across multiple dimensions. This study aims to assess the sustainability index and condition of cassava agribusiness in Lampung Province across various dimensions (economic, sociocultural, technical and technological, institutional, and environmental) and to develop a strategy for cassava agribusiness sustainability to ensure food security. A total of 66 farmer respondents from the two villages were interviewed. Furthermore, FGDs were conducted with traders, local government officials, and factory responders. This research utilized the multi-aspect sustainability analysis (MSA) technique to assess the sustainability status across multiple dimensions. This research concluded that the sustainability status of cassava agribusiness in Lampung Province was less sustainable. This score pertained to economic, technical and technological, and institutional aspects. Meanwhile, social culture and environmental aspects stood in the sustainability category, demonstrating the susceptibility of cassava agribusiness to potential business instability. Cassava agribusiness in Lampung necessitated strategies primarily addressing economic, technical, and technological aspects, along with the establishment of efficient and appropriate institutions to enhance the sustainability of cassava agribusiness in Lampung Province and to ensure food security.

Abstract

Efforts to overcome the dependence on garlic imports in Indonesia by raising its production have not yet been achieved. Various challenges have emerged, threatening the sustainability of garlic production and escalating the annual volume of imports. It is imperative to evaluate the initiatives undertaken to ensure the sustainability of garlic production. To address the issue, this study assessed the sustainability of garlic production and identified the leverage factors affecting it. This study employed the Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) method by examining indicators across five dimensions. Sustainability scores were derived through expert judgment via interviews and Focus Group Discussions with 74 participants. This research discovered moderate sustainability levels, with the economic dimension exhibiting the lowest index. Consequently, garlic farming faced considerable challenges and obstacles stemming from economic factors, potentially disrupting the sustainability of its production. Based on the identified leverage variables, this study recommends five specific interventions to improve garlic production sustainability: constructing water reservoirs and developing irrigation infrastructure, implement a minimum purchasing price and restricting import quotas during peak harvest, enhancing the selling value of local garlic by promoting its superiority, making significant efforts to develop research aimed at producing high-quality seeds in mass quantities, and establishing a robust marketing institution at the farmer level.

Abstract

Sorghum is a drought-tolerant crop that can contribute to Indonesia’s food security and income generation. However, this potential often fails to improve farmers’ income and welfare unless accompanied by economic feasibility, particularly in marketing practices. This study examined market efficiency and partnership models in sorghum development in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta and Central Java Provinces. The research analyzed the marketing cost, marketing margin, farmers’ share, and partnership cultivation models of the sorghum. The data were collected through surveys, interviews, and observations to 120 sorghum farmers and 60 traders. The study utilized descriptive statistics, ANOVA to compare farmers’ share in the different marketing channels, and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to select the partnership models. The results unveiled Channel II which consisting of farmers, village collector traders, traders outside the city or regency, and national companies, produced the highest marketing margin. Meanwhile, Channel III, comprising farmers, village collector traders, and the local feed industry, generated the highest farmers’ share. The study revealed that sole proprietorship partnerships were the farmers' dominant choice in the sorghum business. Nevertheless, the partnership model with feed industry had also formed in the research area.

Abstract

Social entrepreneurship plays a critical role in addressing social challenges through innovative approaches, especially under environmental turbulence. This study investigated how Social Entrepreneurship Orientation (SEO) influences the financial and social performance of agricultural social enterprises in Indonesia, considering the moderating effect of environmental turbulence. Using purposive sampling, data were collected via an online survey from 106 agricultural social enterprise managers or owners across various Indonesian regions between February and July 2023. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed for analysis. Results denoted that SEO positively impacted both financial and social performance during environmental turbulence. Although environmental turbulence escalated SEO, it did not directly affect enterprise performance. Additionally, SEO mediated the relationship between environmental turbulence and financial and social performance, mitigating the turbulence’s adverse effect. These findings have highlighted SEO as a key capability for agricultural social enterprises to navigate dynamic environments and enhance their overall performance.

Abstract

Farmers’ attitudes are closely related to intrinsic and extrinsic factors in carrying out agricultural activities. Meanwhile, socio-economic characteristics, spatial aspects, values, agricultural attributes, and biophysical assets are tools for understanding the complex relationships between various factors influencing behavior. Urbanization pressure is one of the external factors affecting farmers’ attitudes toward maintaining land and agricultural activities. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the relationship between regional characteristics and farmers’ attitudes, as well as the factors influencing attitudes toward maintaining agriculture at different levels of urbanization pressure. This study utilized a global narrative or integrative literature review combined with in-depth interviews with farmers and agricultural officers to expand the local context. The results disclosed that farmers experienced challenges in maintaining four key factors in facing urbanization pressure, encompassing land, activities, production, and productivity. Regional characteristics influenced by urbanization have played a crucial role in shaping farmers’ attitudes. Farmers required support from the government, academics, entrepreneurs, and the community in facing the increasingly rapid urbanization pressure.
