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

Buffalo farming plays an important role in supporting rural livelihoods and maintaining local livestock resources. However, the sustainability of buffalo agribusiness is influenced by farmers’ socio-economic conditions, management practices, and the efficient use of available resources. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of buffalo farmers, examine the income level and economic efficiency of smallholder buffalo farming, identify socio-economic factors affecting farmers’ income, and formulate development strategies for buffalo agribusiness. The research used a survey approach involving 37 smallholder buffalo farmers selected purposively. Data were collected through interviews and supporting documents and analyzed using descriptive methods, farm income evaluation, and strategic analysis. The results show that buffalo farmers generally have sufficient experience and capability in managing their farming activities. Buffalo farming provides promising income and good economic prospects for farmers. Farmers’ age and experience in raising buffalo contribute positively to their income levels. Development strategies emphasize the importance of government support in utilizing local feed resources such as sago, improving supervision of buffalo slaughter and marketing activities, providing better access to market information, and offering training on feed processing from agricultural residues such as straw to support sustainable buffalo farming development.
