Abstract

The first goal of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to eradicate poverty by 2030. In Indonesia, achieving this goal requires particular attention to the agricultural sector, where a large share of the poor population is concentrated. This study examines poverty dynamics among agricultural households in Indonesia using data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) for 2007 and 2014, applying a spell approach. The findings indicate that temporary (transient) poverty accounts for 74.55% of total poverty, while chronic poverty constitutes 25.45%. Furthermore, the results from the ordered logit model reveal that dynamic poverty is significantly influenced by the household head’s age and education level, household size, gender, access to electricity and financial credit, residential location (within or outside Java), as well as changes in household size, education level, access to credit, and land ownership.

Abstract

Food security has a crucial role in maintaining the sustainability of smallholder households that are vulnerable to climate and economic shocks. This study aims to describe the food security conditions of smallholder households, measure the level of food security, and formulate strategies to increase food security in smallholder households in Gondang District, Mojokerto Regency.  The study used a quantitative descriptive method, with 43 respondents determined by purposive sampling. Food security level measurement was conducted using the Resilience Capacity Index (RCI). The results of the study show that the level of food security of smallholder households is in the very vulnerable category (RCI index was 34.66%). These conditions reflect limited adaptive capacity, assets, access to basic services and social safety nets.  Food security for smallholder households can be achieved through an integrated approach that includes increasing the adaptive capacity of farmers, optimizing and diversifying productive assets, equitable access to basic services, and strengthening social safety nets.

Abstract

Boyolali Regency, especially the Cepogo District, has significant potential for curly chili farming, supported by favorable topographical conditions and the presence of the Pepe Watershed Area. However, the productivity of curly chili in this region remains lower than the provincial average in Central Java. This study aimed to analyze the effects of production inputs and to evaluate the optimization of input use in curly chili farming in the Pepe Watershed Area, Boyolali Regency. The study employed a quantitative, survey-based approach with 68 curly chili farmers as respondents. Data were analyzed using the Cobb-Douglas production function, and input optimization was assessed using the ratio of marginal value product to input prices. The findings demonstrated that land area, seed use, and labor exerted had a positive and significant influence on curly chili farming, whereas manure, Phosphorus fertilizer, and pesticides exhibited no significant impact. The optimization research indicated that land area and seed utilization had not attained optimal levels and require enhancement. The application of manure, Phosphorus fertilizer, and pesticides was excessive and requires reduction. These findings offer valuable insights for enhancing input management efficiency and promoting the sustainability of curly chili farming in watershed regions.

Abstract

 Indonesia ranks as the world's third-largest cocoa butter exporter, contributing 11% to global exports. However, export values have declined from USD 791 million (2020) to USD 627 million (2023), presenting a paradox given Indonesia's substantial production capacity, established infrastructure, and supportive policy interventions.This study analyzes the comparative advantage and export performance dynamics of Indonesian cocoa butter in global markets during 2010–2023, using an integrated Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) and Export Product Dynamics (EPD) framework. Time-series export data were obtained from UN COMTRADE, ITC, and Trademap for HS code 180400. The study compares Indonesia with Malaysia across two contrasting destination markets: the United States (mature, high-value market) and Estonia (emerging EU gateway). RCA analysis measures comparative advantage based on export structure specialization, while EPD categorizes competitive positioning into four quadrants: Rising Star, Falling Star, Lost Opportunity, and Retreat. Indonesia demonstrates exceptionally high RCA values (Estonia: 87.80; US: 50.43), confirming strong comparative advantage. However, EPD analysis reveals divergent market dynamics: Indonesia achieves Rising Star status in Estonia (expanding market share in growing market) but Falling Star status in the US (gaining share in declining market). Malaysia falls into the Lost Opportunity quadrant in both markets, indicating declining competitiveness. The findings reveal a critical RCA-EPD paradox: high comparative advantage does not guarantee sustainable market growth. While RCA reflects structural export specialization, EPD captures dynamic competitive positioning. This divergence underscores that export strategies must integrate both static comparative advantage and dynamic market responsiveness. For Indonesia, maintaining competitiveness requires market diversification, product upgrading, and adaptive strategies tailored to market-specific demand trajectories.

Abstract

Smallholder buffalo farming plays an important role in supporting rural livelihoods in Biboki Anleu District, North Central Timor Regency, particularly as a source of household income, traditional asset, and socio-cultural exchange in local communities. This study aims to analyze farmers’ income, economic efficiency, factors affecting income, and strategic development of smallholder buffalo farming. A survey was conducted involving 37 buffalo farmers selected through a census approach. Data were analyzed using income analysis, Return Cost Ratio, multiple linear regression, and SWOT analysis. The results show that buffalo farming generated an average annual income of IDR 108,127,975.60 per farmer, with an R/C ratio of 5.754, indicating that the business is economically feasible and efficient. Feed cost and farming experience significantly influenced farmers’ income. The high efficiency was supported by the use of local feed resources and agricultural by-products, such as sago, rice straw, and kabesak leaves, which reduced cash production costs. The study concludes that smallholder buffalo farming has strong economic potential when supported by local resource-based feed management, improved market information, breeding services, and farmer training. Strategic development should prioritize feed processing, institutional support, and population sustainability.

Abstract

Agricultural extension is a key tool for supporting farmer capacity building, and the quality of its implementation directly determines the actual effectiveness of extension work. This study focuses on the Integrated Crop Management Farmer Field School (SLPTT) program in Sumenep Regency, Indonesia, to assess the quality of program implementation relative to farmer knowledge improvement. The study employed a descriptive quantitative method, selecting 120 rice farmers from four sub-districts in the regency as survey respondents. A multidimensional index encompassing program socialization, farmer meetings, training consistency, and the role of extension workers was used to evaluate implementation quality, while the magnitude of knowledge improvement was measured by pre- and post-test scores. Results indicated that the quality of program implementation was very high across all study sites, with implementation index scores ranging from 4.38 to 4.69. Farmers in all sub-districts achieved knowledge improvements, with growth rates ranging from 30.58% in Manding District to 112.30% in Kota District, Sumenep. However, high implementation quality does not always result in proportional and synchronous improvements in farmer knowledge. Based on these findings, this study proposes strengthening participatory learning methods, clearly defining the role of agricultural extension officers, and optimizing project effectiveness to adapt to diverse local contexts.

Abstract

Cayenne pepper is one of the essential food commodities for Indonesian society that frequently experiences price fluctuations. Volatility in cayenne pepper prices can be influenced by seasonal changes, shifts in consumer preferences, and variations in cultivated area. This study aims to analyze seasonal price volatility of cayenne pepper in five major production regencies in East Java during January 2020 to December 2023. The five regencies examined in this study are Malang, Kediri, Blitar, Banyuwangi, and Probolinggo. This study serves as an attempt to map uncertainty in price between seasons, because studies on price volatility rarely break down the level of price volatility between dry and rainy seasons. Analysis employs the ARCH/GARCH model. The study found that Malang, Kediri, and Banyuwangi experience high volatility during the rainy season, with value of ARCH/GARCH Malang (1,150), Kediri (1,164), and Banyuwangi (1,062). Meanwhile, during the dry season the entire research area tends to show low volatility, with ARCH/GARCH values less than 1. These findings confirm that seasonal factors are an important determinant of cayenne pepper volatility and need to be considered in formulating price stabilization policies as well as risk mitigation strategies for producers and supply chain actors.

Abstract

Garlic is one of Indonesia's strategic horticultural commodities however, domestic production remains insufficient to meet national demand, resulting in continued dependence on imports. Improving the efficiency of garlic farming is therefore essential to enhance domestic production and reduce import dependency.This study attempts to analyze the technical and allocative efficiency of garlic farming production in Karanganyar Regency in response to the still suboptimal use of production inputs by farmers. The study employs a quantitative approach with a sample of 110 garlic farmers in Karanganyar Regency. Technical and allocative efficiency are analyzed using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), while the determinant of technical efficiency are examined using a Tobit regression model. The findings show that the average level of technical efficiency falls into the low category (0.375 ≤ x 0.583), whereas allocative efficiency is in the moderate category (0.585–0.792). The Tobit regression results show that education and farmer group participation have a positive effect on technical efficiency, while the frequency of extension participation and rainfall risk severity have a negative effect on technical efficiency. These findings suggest the need for strategies focused on strengthening farmer education, enhancing the role of farmer groups, improving the effectiveness of extension services, and developing adaptation measures to mitigate rainfall-related production risks in garlic farming.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of Indonesia’s palm oil industry has raised concerns regarding deforestation and carbon emissions, particularly in major producing regions such as Riau Province. This study aims to examine the relationship between palm oil exports and environmental sustainability by considering deforestation, carbon emissions, and RSPO certification during 2013–2023. The study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data, descriptive analysis, and regression-based assessment. The findings indicate that increases in palm oil export values are not consistently accompanied by higher deforestation, although export growth remains associated with environmental pressure through carbon emissions. Meanwhile, RSPO-certified plantation areas tend to be associated with lower deforestation and carbon emissions. These results suggest that environmental outcomes in the palm oil sector are influenced not only by export performance but also by sustainability governance mechanisms. The study recommends strengthening sustainability certification and environmental governance to support competitive and environmentally responsible palm oil development in Riau Province.
