Abstract

Food crops are agricultural commodities that have a significant contribution to food security, economic stability, and community welfare. West Sumatra Province, as one of the agricultural regions in Indonesia, has great potential in developing various food crop commodities that are an important part of people's consumption and life. Despite having the potential to support natural resources, the dynamics of food crop production in West Sumatra show fluctuations from time to time. Analysis of food crop production trends is important to understand production development patterns and identify challenges and opportunities in efforts to increase food crop commodity production. This study aims to determine the trend in the amount of food crop commodity production in West Sumatra Province. This study analyzed food crop production trends in West Sumatra Province using quantitative descriptive analysis of secondary data from the Central Statistics Agency (2020-2024). Six commodities were examined: paddy, corn, peanuts, mung beans, cassava, and sweet potatoes. The results of the study found that throughout 2018-2024, the production of food crop commodities in West Sumatra Province, consisting of paddy, corn, peanuts, mung beans, cassava, and sweet potatoes, showed a negative trend where food crop commodities tended to experience a decrease in production from year to year. The production of food crop commodities is influenced by various factors, including land area, seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, the number of workers, and climate change. The declining food crop production in West Sumatra Province requires immediate attention to ensure food security amid growing population demands.

Abstract

Household food availability is one of the main pillars of food security, which is greatly influenced by socioeconomic conditions, especially in wetland agricultural areas with ecological and infrastructure limitations. This study examines household food availability levels and identifies key socioeconomic determinants among farming households in Karias Dalam Village, Banjang Subdistrict, Hulu Sungai Utara Regency, an area characterized by wetland agroecosystems with significant ecological and infrastructural limitations. Employing a cross-sectional analytical survey design, data were collected from 42 farming households selected through simple random sampling from a population of 280 households. Quantitative descriptive analysis and multiple linear regression (α = 5%) were applied to assess food availability measured in kcal/capita/day and its relationship with household income, mothers’ nutritional knowledge, and family size. The findings reveal that farming households operate at moderate food availability levels, averaging 1,462 kcal/capita/day which is a substantial deficit of 39% below the national recommended dietary allowance of 2,400 kcal. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrates that household income, mothers’ nutritional knowledge, and family size simultaneously exert significant effects on food availability (F = 10.847, p < 0.001), with these factors collectively explaining 46.1% of the variance (R² = 0.461). Specifically, income and nutritional knowledge demonstrate positive associations, while larger family size negatively impacts per capita food availability. These results underscore the urgent need for integrated policy interventions combining income diversification, maternal nutrition education, and family planning support to enhance food security in wetland agricultural communities. The study contributes empirical evidence for context-specific food security strategies in Indonesia’s marginalized wetland ecosystems.

Abstract

Oyster mushroom cultivation has considerable economic potential; however, production activities are inherently exposed to various risks that may disrupt productivity and business sustainability. UD. ARERA Oyster Mushroom in East Denpasar faces recurring production risks, including inconsistent baglog quality, unstable temperature and humidity conditions in the mushroom house, limited worker skills, and pest infestations. These conditions necessitate a structured and systematic risk management approach. This study aims to identify production risks, analyze their root causes, and formulate priority risk mitigation strategies to support business sustainability. This study employs a descriptive research design using qualitative and quantitative approaches. Primary data were collected through direct observation, in-depth interviews, and questionnaires administered to the owner and workers of UD. ARERA Oyster Mushroom. Risk identification was conducted using the Fishbone Diagram to classify root causes based on human, material, method, machine, and environmental factors. Risk prioritization was carried out using the House of Risk (HOR) method. HOR 1 was applied to determine priority risk agents based on Aggregate Risk Potential (ARP), while HOR 2 prioritized mitigation actions by evaluating effectiveness and implementation difficulty. The results indicate that the most critical production risks are inconsistent baglog quality, unstable environmental conditions, inadequate worker skills, and pest attacks. Priority mitigation strategies include establishing baglog quality standards, improving environmental control systems, providing technical training, and implementing regular pest management. The integration of Fishbone Diagram and House of Risk provides a comprehensive framework for proactive risk management in oyster mushroom cultivation.

Abstract

Climate change poses significant pressures on the sustainability of global agricultural systems and food security stability. This study aims to analyze the development of global literature on climate change adaptation in the agricultural sector and identify conceptual gaps and future research directions. The study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach combined with bibliometric analysis of reputable international publications. A total of 39 articles were selected for final analysis. The results indicate that agricultural adaptation research has grown rapidly over the past two decades, with a primary focus on Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA), ecosystem-based resource management, production system diversification, and the integration of digital technologies such as precision agriculture and artificial intelligence. However, the literature remains fragmented and technically oriented, with limited integration between technological innovation, farmers’ adaptive capacity, institutional governance, and the dimensions of food security and social equity. This study proposes an integrative conceptual framework that links technological innovation, ecosystem sustainability, socioeconomic capacity, and public policy in strengthening the resilience of the global food system. These findings provide theoretical contributions and policy implications for accelerating sustainable agricultural transformation amid the dynamics of climate change.

Abstract

The digital transformation of agriculture in Indonesia faces a significant hurdle, marked by the low adoption rate of online marketing among farmers despite its potential to shorten supply chains and increase profitability. This study explores the lived experiences of farmers in Malang City, Indonesia, regarding the adoption of online marketing. Utilizing a qualitative phenomenological approach, in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation were conducted with six farmers purposively selected to represent diverse backgrounds, from conventional to millennial urban farmers. The analysis revealed six core themes: motivation driven by crisis and opportunity; a learning process heavily reliant on intergenerational assistance; a spectrum of marketing strategies from pure transaction to personal branding; positive economic impacts including margin increases of 40-50% and market diversification; persistent operational challenges such as logistics and digital reputation; and a fundamental identity transformation from traditional farmer to digital agripreneur. The findings highlight a digital divide not only in access and skills but also in the capacity to generate value from technology. This research enriches the Technology Acceptance Model by incorporating socio-cultural and intergenerational dimensions, introducing the concept of “facilitated adoption.” It concludes that online marketing adoption is a complex negotiation between tradition and modernity, producing heterogeneous farmer typologies. The study offers practical recommendations for local governments to create mentorship programs and for platforms to develop features responsive to diverse farmer needs, emphasizing that sustainable digital agriculture requires both technological infrastructure and social engineering.

Abstract

Despite a high awareness of its benefits, the adoption rate of farm business diversification in Indonesia remains low, indicating a complex decision-making process beyond simple economic calculation. This study explores the lived experiences of farmers in Sidomulyo Village, Batu City, to understand the perspectives, driving factors, and obstacles influencing their diversification decisions. Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research involved in-depth interviews with 23 informants, including farmers practicing various forms of diversification, non-diversifiers, and key village stakeholders. The findings reveal that diversification decisions are a non-linear social journey, triggered by critical moments such as crop failure, and mediated by learning from trusted “innovator farmer” role models. Social capital within farmer groups functions paradoxically as both an enabler, through information exchange and safety nets, and a constraint, through conformity pressures. Farmers demonstrate creative agency by utilizing traditional practices like gotong royong to overcome structural limitations in infrastructure and market access, yet remain constrained by them. Crucially, the meaning of diversification extends beyond income stability to encompass identity as innovators, a strategy for intergenerational succession, and nascent ecological awareness, with women often acting as the hidden drivers of change. This research critiques top-down extension models, recommending policies that facilitate social learning, strengthen both bonding and bridging social capital, and address gendered constraints to foster more resilient and sustainable agricultural livelihoods.

Abstract

The transformation of strawberry farmers into agrotourism operators represents a paradigm shift in rural development from pure agriculture to service-based tourism economy. This study analyzes the transformation process of strawberry farmers in Pandanrejo Village, Batu City, East Java, using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 18 informants, participatory observation, and document analysis. Results indicate that transformation occurred in three stages: (1) crisis of traditional agriculture due to price fluctuations, (2) BUMDes-based agrotourism initiation in 2018-2019, and (3) institutionalization of sustainable tourism. Key driving factors include economic incentives (40-60% income increase), policy support from Batu City Tourism Office, and social capital of mutual cooperation (Sinoman Batu Association). However, challenges include infrastructure limitations, conflicts with traditional middlemen, and risks of cultural commodification. This study recommends strengthening BUMDes managerial capacity and developing agrotourism zoning regulations to maintain balance between commercialization and sustainability.

Abstract

This study aims to map the development of agricultural technology innovation research in supporting food security using a bibliometric approach. The analysis was conducted on a dataset of scientific publications indexed in selected academic databases during the period 2015–2025, serving as the unit of analysis to identify conceptual structures, thematic clusters, research evolution, and emerging research gaps. The keyword visualisation results show the dominance of the themes of precision agriculture, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), smart farming, and digital agriculture as the main drivers of the transformation of modern agricultural systems. The cluster map shows a close relationship between technological innovation, sustainability, and food security, while the density–centrality analysis places precision agriculture and digital agriculture as motor themes with high centrality and density. Thematic evolution shows a shift from the conservation and sustainability paradigm towards data-based and artificial intelligence-based agricultural systems integrated with digital governance and the circular economy. Although technology is the dominant focus, aspects of farmer adoption, governance, digital inclusion, and policy integration remain strategic research gaps. These findings confirm that the transformation of agriculture towards a resilient food system requires multidisciplinary integration between technological innovation, environmental sustainability, and institutional and public policy support.

Abstract

Digital transformation in the agricultural sector offers significant opportunities to enhance the productivity, efficiency, and welfare of smallholder farmers in Indonesia. Nevertheless, the rate of digital technology adoption among smallholder farmers remains relatively low due to limited digital literacy, infrastructure access, economic risks, and suboptimal institutional support. This study aims to develop a more comprehensive conceptual framework to explain the dynamics of digital technology adoption by smallholder farmers in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative approach with a conceptual paper design through a systematic conceptual review of relevant international and national literature, alongside a synthesis of key theories including Diffusion of Innovation (DOI), Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The analytical findings indicate that digital technology adoption is a multidimensional socio-technical process involving the interaction of individual cognitive capacity, household economic stability, community social capital, digital infrastructure readiness, and policy and institutional support. Based on theoretical integration and cross-country empirical findings from developing nations, this study develops the Adaptive Socio-Technical Agrarian Digitalization (ASTAD) model, which emphasizes a dynamic adaptive process within the agrarian ecosystem. This model extends classical approaches by incorporating variables such as economic risk buffer capacity, digital learning elasticity, collective trust, digital access stability, and market integration. The contribution of this research lies in reinforcing a systemic perspective for understanding smallholder agricultural digitalization in Indonesia, along with policy implications for promoting an inclusive and sustainable digital ecosystem.

Abstract

This study aims to qualitatively analyse farmers' perceptions of deforestation and climate change and explore how these perceptions influence the agricultural adaptation strategies they implement. The study was conducted in X District, Y Province, Indonesia, using a qualitative descriptive approach. A total of 20–25 farmers were selected through purposive sampling based on a minimum of 10 years of farming experience. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and focus group discussions (FGDs), then analysed using thematic analysis with triangulation of sources and member checks to ensure the validity of the findings. The results showed that most farmers were aware of significant changes in the last 10–20 years, particularly erratic rainfall patterns, increased drought, and more frequent extreme weather events. In addition, farmers also identified deforestation, such as illegal logging and conversion of forests to plantations, as factors affecting microclimate change and land productivity. Although the level of scientific understanding of the relationship between deforestation and climate change varies, empirical experience is the main basis for shaping their risk perceptions and adaptive responses. Adaptation strategies implemented include crop diversification, planting schedule adjustments, crop rotation, soil conservation, shelterbelt planting, water management, and manual pest control. Differences in perceptions and adaptations were also found based on age groups, with more experienced farmers tending to have a more holistic understanding and implement more systematic conservation strategies. These findings confirm that risk perception plays an important role in shaping farmers' adaptive capacity. Therefore, climate change adaptation and mitigation policies need to consider local perspectives, strengthen access to information, and increase institutional support to encourage sustainable and climate-resilient agricultural practices.
