Abstract

Most farmers are experiencing challenges and constraints in accessing agricultural inputs, thus leading to poor and underutilization of agro inputs and consequently low agricultural productivity in most part of sub-Saharan Africa. This study assessed the agro-input supply sector in Kogi state. A total of 157 input dealers were randomly selected across the twenty-one local government areas in the state. Data were collected using well-structured questionnaire complemented with interview schedule and were analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. Findings reveal that agro-chemicals, fertilizer and feed were the major inputs supplied by most of the retailers and wholesalers that hardly engage in activities that create awareness about their products. Input prices were the most important preference and consideration factor in the purchase of agro-input by customers and form the basis for competition. Casual, family and child labours that proved to be cheaper, commonly accessible and do not require signing of formal employment contract with workers dominated both the retail and wholesale sectors. Poor government support, poor business condition in addition to poor capital base, high transportation cost, price fluctuations, adulteration were the identified major constraints affecting the agripreneurs. The study recommends capacity development on new marketing strategies, registration of businesses with relevant agencies, provision of credit and financial services; formation of formidable, strong and mutual-trust co-operative societies for input supply actors so as to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of the agricultural inputs supply sector in the state.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020 led to unpredictable price fluctuation in agricultural commodities such as Shallots. The purpose of this research was to analyze the price fluctuation behavior of shallots in Gorontalo Province during the Covid-19 Pandemic and the price volatility surge as well as the effect of the pandemic during 2020. This study used data from The National Food Strategy Information Center in the form of weekly price in time-series from January 2018 to December 2020. The data analysis on price volatility was conducted using the Auto-Regressive Conditional Heteroscedastic and Generalized Auto-Regressive Conditional Heteroscedastic (ARCH / GARCH) Models. The results show that shallot price behavior randomly fluctuates every year, is more unpredictable, and has significant fluctuation over 2020. The ARCH / GARCH models prove that Pandemic Covid-19 in 2020 triggered the unpredictable price fluctuation and led to price volatility of shallots commodity in Gorontalo Province.

Abstract

Limited studies exist on the commitment of members to cooperative societies. Therefore, the study sought to measure perceptions of membership and the drivers of membership commitment of cocoa farmers' cooperative societies in the Atwima Mponua District of Ashanti Region, Ghana. Data was collected from a sample of 400 cocoa farmers through a multi-stage sampling technique. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (binary logit regression) were used in analyzing the data. Results show that cocoa farmers agree that they benefit from the cooperative and they appreciate the management, marketing and business, internal dynamics and public interest of their cooperatives. The study also discovered that farm age, access to extension service, farming experience, farmer status, cooperative benefits and internal dynamics are critical to obtaining commitment in cooperative societies. The study shows the need for the Ghana Cocoa Board to improve farmers’ access to extension services so as to improve their commitment in cooperative societies. Cooperative organizations are encouraged to consider the perceptions of the cocoa farmers and their socio-economic characteristics in order to elicit the desired commitment.

Abstract

Microinsurance is an important risk mitigation strategy in smallholder farmers’ agricultural enterprises that are faced with intensifying climate change and unpredictability. This study analysed the perceptions of smallholder tobacco farmers in Zimbabwe’s tobacco-growing regions of the Mashonaland Provinces towards microinsurance as a risk coping strategy given the risks of hailstorms, droughts, and long-dry spells in the rainy season. A qualitative phenomenological study was conducted with 13 purposively selected small-scale tobacco farmers. The study employed unstructured interviews to collect data from the participants. The findings of the study suggest that smallholder farmers have a positive perception of microinsurance, against the general view that they have a negative attitude. The study found that other risks with which smallholder farmers are faced and their immediate risk response, tolerance and disposition may have a distorting effect on the smallholder farmers’ perceptions and attitude towards microinsurance. It was further found that the perception of the smallholder farmers was also influenced by whether the farmers had other sources of income, whether they previously had experienced crop losses due to weather-induced risks and the general level of education of the smallholder farmer. It was also found that most of the micro-insurance services offered were mainly supply-side driven rather than demand-side driven and as a result, most of the products were not farmer-centric. New product development, farmer-centric insurance service offerings and general farmer sensitisation on the need for microinsurance were recommended.

Abstract

Tarakan City has limited agricultural land potential and is less productive so that most of the consumption needs for vegetables are imported from outside the island of Tarakan. It is hoped that with the development of hydroponic technology, the community can meet the needs of vegetables independently. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that influence the decision of farmers to implement a hydroponic system. The research is located in Tarakan City with the research period from April to October 2021. The method of determining respondents was carried out intentionally to 40 respondents with the consideration that the community had obtained information about hydroponic system, either through direct agricultural extension workers, from friends or through other electronic media. such as television, YouTube, Facebook and other social media. To find out the factors that affect farmers' opportunities to apply hydroponic system, an analysis is carried out using the logit function approach. Analysis of the factors that influence farmers' decisions to apply hydroponic system using logit regression function analysis obtained a Nagelkerke R2 value of 0.494 meaning that the variation of the independent variables included in the model was able to explain 49.4% of the existing phenomena and the remaining 50.6% was explained by other variables. The variable hydroponic planting experience (X4) has a significant and significant effect at the 5 %, meaning that the more often people cultivate hydroponic plants, the greater the opportunity to apply hydroponic system, while age (X1), formal education (X2), Membership Dummy in the farmer group (X3), and Dummy nutrient costs (X5) are not significant. One of the obstacles for farmers in applying hydroponic system is the cost of purchasing nutrients.

Abstract

Animal foods are a major source of protein for households. Gorontalo Province has a lot of potential for marine fishery development, despite being one of the provinces where families consume less protein than the national protein sufficiency rate. This article investigates the household elasticity of demand for animal food in the context of increasing prices and incomes. The Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System is used in to estimate the share equations from which reliable price and income elasticities can be derived. The article utilizes secondary data from the National Socio-Economic Survey for March 2021, which includes consumption and household expenditure information on all animal protein-containing meals, 4,811 households make up the study's sample. All animal foods, except for eggs, were found to be highly price elastic. The most elastic food is beef, which has a demand elasticity of 3.829%, followed by chicken meat (3.13%), fish (2.345%), milk (1.311%), and eggs (0.846 percent). Eggs were discovered to be price inelastic. Except for eggs, all animal products are considered luxury goods as indicated by income elasticity estimates. Beef has the highest income elasticity (3.181%), followed by chicken (2.957%), fish (1.674%), and milk (1.574 percent). Eggs are normal items because their income elasticity is the lowest at 0.589 percent. This finding confirms that for households in rural Gorontalo, price policy is more effective than income policy.

Abstract

The study examined the comparative analysis of technical efficiency of cluster and non-cluster rice farming in Borno state, Nigeria. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaire administered to 232 farmers comprising of 93 clustering and 139 non-clustering rice farmers in Borno State, Nigeria. Data were subjected to analytical techniques that included descriptive statistics, gross margin, t-test and stochastic frontier production function (SFPF). Cluster rice farming enterprise per hectare was more profitable by producing a gross margin (GM) of 196,020.62/ha thus returning N1.72 on every N1.00 invested as compared to non-cluster farming which produced a GM of 99,619.32/ha and thus had a return of N0.96 on every N1.00 invested. The SFPF revealed an average technical efficiency (TE) of 0.76 for cluster farming was higher than 0.58 for non-cluster farmers. Hence, cluster rice farming was more technically efficient compared to non-cluster rice farming. The determining factors of TE in cluster farming include seed (-0.49), fertilizer (0.242), agro-chemicals (0.341) and labour (0.747) compared to non-cluster which included fertilizer (0.207), agro-chemicals (-0.291) and labour (0.668). Inefficiency variables were insignificant in cluster farming while household members active in farming (0.811), years of farming experience (-0.226), and amount of credit utilized (0.5e-4) were statistically significant in non-cluster farming. Insecurity, pest infestation and shortage of water were critical production constraints faced by cluster farmers compared to non-cluster farmers faced with constraints such as shortage of water, insecurity and flooding. Non-clustering farmers should adopt production cluster farming to boost their profit, increase their efficiency and take advantage of the enormous services attributed to working in groups.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the marketing channel model of ginger, analyze the marketing efficiency of ginger and analyze the added value resulting from the innovation of ginger products into ginger powder in Sidenreng Rappang Regency. This goal is based on several problems encountered when conducting the initial survey, such as ginger farmers only getting a small profit because they only market their products in the form of raw or unprocessed ginger so there is a significant difference in selling prices at the farmer level. This research's data analysis method consists of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Qualitative analysis was used to identify marketing channels for ginger in Sidenreng Rappang Regency. In contrast, quantitative analysis was used to determine marketing efficiency and the amount of added value resulting from the innovation of ginger products into ginger powder using the Hayami method. The results showed that the marketing channel for ginger in Panca Lautang District, Sidenreng Rapppang Regency consisted of Farmers - Collectors - Retailers - Consumers. From these results, there are two marketing institutions in the ginger marketing channel, namely collectors and retailers. The value of the marketing margin obtained through the ginger marketing channel which is the difference between the price paid by consumers and the price received by farmers is Rp. 8,500. The value of a farmer's share in the ginger marketing channel is based on the price received by farmers from the final consumer price of 66% with a profit ratio of 6.9 which indicates that the ginger marketing channel in Panca Lautang District, Sidenreng Rapppang Regency can be said to be efficient. The added value of processing ginger into powdered ginger is Rp. 79,000/kg with a value-added ratio of 39.50% and a profit of Rp. 74,000 or 37%. The large percentage of processing profits indicates that selling powdered ginger processing products is more profitable than selling fresh products.

Abstract

griculture has been recognized as an important sector in Indonesia. In addition to providing food and industrial raw materials, it contributes significantly to the growth of gross domestic product (GDP), foreign exchange, employment, and rural household income. One of the important triggers for the decline in harvested area and rice production in Musi Rawas Regency is the decline in rice field area due to the conversion of rice fields to non-rice fields. Conflicts over water resources vary from one area to another because water is not evenly distributed both in space and time. Therefore, this paper describes changes in the household population of rice farmers and changes in the population of aquaculture farmers in Musi Rawas Regency. This research was conducted using quantitative methods through a descriptive observational approach to secondary data obtained from the Government of Musi Rawas Regency, South Sumatra Province, Indonesia. The distribution of descriptive data was analyzed univariately using the SPSS Statistic 25.0 application. The area of rice fields increased from 2019 to 2021, followed by the number of farmers which also increased. The area of aquaculture is relatively stable in 2020 and 2021 and has increased compared to 2019. Meanwhile, aquaculture households from 2019 to 2021 continue to increase. he findings indicate the expansion of new rice fields (extensification) due to the need for new rice fields due to the increase in the population of farmers. The population of fish farmers is increasing even though the fishery area is constant. This condition indicates the fragmentation of fishery land.
