<![CDATA[Integrated farming-livestock systems offer a sustainable approach to agrocomplex development in Indonesia. This study analyzes the application of integrated systems in three different agroecosystems: wetlands in Karawang, drylands in Gunung Kidul, and plantations in Central Lampung. Research methods include direct observation, field measurements, and data analysis using Systems Dynamics Modeling, Data Envelopment Analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling. The results show three main typologies of integration: rice-cattle, food crops-horticulture-goats, and oil palm-livestock systems. Integrated systems increase nitrogen use efficiency by 37-52%, reduce chemical fertilizer needs by 45%, and increase farmer income by 43.7 % compared to conventional practices. Environmentally, these systems increase soil organic matter content, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2.4-3.7 tons CO₂-eq/ha/year, and increase biodiversity. Implementation challenges include institutional fragmentation, limited post-harvest technology, and lack of standardization of organic fertilizer quality. Critical success factors include institutional support, farmers’ technical capacity, and the suitability of technology to the local context. This research contributes to the development of a sustainable agrocomplex model that is adaptive to the diverse conditions of Indonesia’s agroecosystems, with important implications for food security and climate change mitigation policies.]]>

<![CDATA[This study analyzes the role of public-private partnerships in strengthening agrocomplex systems in Indonesia's economic corridors using a mixed-methods approach involving in-depth interviews, FGDs, surveys, and document analysis. The results show significant variation in the implementation of partnership models across economic corridors, with the multi-stakeholder consortium model showing the highest level of satisfaction among farmers. Public-private partnerships contributed to an average increase in productivity of 23.7 % and farmer income of 30.5% compared to non-partner farmers. Critical factors for partnership success include transparency in the use of funds , clarity of risk-sharing mechanisms, and the presence of a neutral facilitator. Key challenges to partnership implementation include unequal bargaining power (76.5 % ), unclear legal framework (67.8%), and limited supporting infrastructure (63.4%). The study highlights the importance of a contextual approach in partnership development, strengthening the governance dimension, and innovating financing models to enhance the positive impact of partnerships on sustainable agricultural development in Indonesia. The study findings provide important policy implications for the development of inclusive and sustainable agrocomplex systems across Indonesia's economic corridors.]]>

<![CDATA[Digital technology has transformative potential in optimizing agrocomplex value chains, but its implementation in developing countries such as Indonesia still faces various challenges. This study analyzes the role of digital technology in optimizing agrocomplex value chains with a focus on implementation in Indonesia. Through a comprehensive analysis of various cases of digital technology implementation in the agricultural sector, this study identifies significant benefits including increased productivity by up to 27.3%, reduced production costs by 18.7%, and efficient use of resources. The analysis also reveals a gap in technology adoption between large and small-scale farmers, as well as the importance of a supporting ecosystem that includes digital infrastructure, capacity development, and conducive policies. The inclusive partnership model and ecosystem-based approach have proven effective in increasing the adoption rate and benefits of digital technology. This study provides a comprehensive framework for implementing digital technology in agrocomplex value chains that considers technological, socio-economic, and environmental sustainability aspects. The implications of this study are relevant for developing policies and strategies for digital transformation in the agricultural sector in Indonesia and other developing countries.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze and formulate a strategy for developing human resources (HR) in realizing an integrated agrocomplex that is globally competitive. Using a mixed methods approach that integrates quantitative and qualitative methods, the study was conducted on 350 respondents representing various actors in the agrocomplex value chain in five agricultural center provinces in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate a gap in HR competency at various agrocomplex nodes, especially in the use of digital technology, post-harvest management, understanding international standards, and global marketing. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis confirmed the significant influence of individual characteristics (β = 0.437), institutional capacity (β = 0.385), access to technology and information (β = 0.324), and government policy support (β = 0.276) on HR competency, which in turn had a strong influence on agrocomplex competitiveness (β = 0.612). Qualitative findings revealed four main themes: generation gaps in agricultural management, limitations of the agricultural innovation support ecosystem, fragmentation of agricultural HR development programs, and the digital divide. Based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), five priority strategies for human resource development were formulated, namely: (1) revitalization of agricultural vocational education and training; (2) strengthening the agricultural extension system based on digital technology; (3) development of penta-helix partnerships; (4) increasing the institutional capacity of farmers; and (5) developing incentives for young farmer cadres. This study concludes that human resource development is a fundamental prerequisite in realizing a globally competitive integrated agrocomplex, which requires a holistic approach and integration of interventions at the individual, institutional, and ecosystem levels. Policy recommendations are directed at the orchestration of cross-sectoral programs and strengthening synergies between stakeholders within the framework of agricultural transformation towards a modern agrocomplex. ]]>

<![CDATA[This study critically examines the transformative potential of circular economy principles within Indonesia's agrocomplex sector, an imperative shift given the agricultural sector's 13% contribution to the national GDP and employment of 29% of the workforce. Through a mixed-method approach incorporating in-depth interviews with 35 key stakeholders across five major Indonesian regions, focus group discussions, and system dynamics modeling, the research identifies significant opportunities for resource optimization where 63.7% of agricultural biomass currently remains unutilized or burned. The study uncovers five promising circular business models: Industrial-Agricultural Symbiosis, Agricultural Resource Sharing Platforms, Distributed Biorefinery, Product-as-a-Service Agriculture, and Regenerative Supply Chains, with Industrial-Agricultural Symbiosis demonstrating the highest benefit-cost ratio of 3.7 and potential carbon emission reductions of 42%. Key implementation enablers include supportive policies, access to green financing, technological capacity, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and capacity development, while primary barriers encompass value chain fragmentation, infrastructure limitations, inadequate economic incentives, resistance to change, and capacity constraints. A strategic three-phase roadmap (2025-2035) is proposed to accelerate the transition toward a circular agrocomplex in Indonesia, requiring an estimated investment of Rp156.3 trillion over a decade with potential to create 4.4 million new jobs. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating traditional agricultural wisdom with modern technology and establishing collaborative governance frameworks to ensure an equitable distribution of benefits throughout the agricultural value chain, ultimately redefining the relationship between production, consumption, and regeneration in Indonesia's food system. ]]>
