Abstract

Sustainable production by independent oil palm smallholders links to the creation of goods and services using processes and systems that are resource-conserving, economically viable, and socially and creatively rewarding for all working people and consumers. However, there is limited efficiency in financial management and low resource allocation for rural finance operations to support the development of rural economies. This study tried to prove whether household financial management promotes rural development using the theories of transaction cost, financial transaction management, public expenditure management, and a rural development framework. This research was conducted in Sambas District, West Kalimantan, using a mixed method with purposive sampling and structured questionnaires administered to 200 independent oil palm smallholders. Multidimensional scaling and a structural equation model were employed to analyze the data. The results unveiled that household financial management promoted rural development due to its effects on accessibility and infrastructure for market opportunities, basic and public services, and governance regarding participation in agriculture meetings and training by the government. Governance emerged as the most direct effect of rural development as it contributed to livelihoods, community-based economic empowerment, human resources, and rural environmental problems. Operational and risk management came as the most influential factors in household financial management. Government played a role in engaging smallholders in supply chains, access to inputs, and households’ transition in confronting a variety of yields, unstable output and input prices, and changes in production technology. Innovative multi-actor collaborations were required to reinforce and provide a cloak for policy decisions.

Abstract

Local factors and global influences shape consumers’ perceptions through social media. In this regard, spice drinks as an agribusiness product have received increasing attention due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, understanding consumers’ perceptions is crucial for promoting the development of spice drinks. This study aims to (1) extract consumers’ perceptions of spice drinks based on discussions on social media using sentiment analysis and (2) classify the factors influencing their perceptions using factor analysis. The input dataset was obtained through Twitter data to acquire Kansei words. The results disclosed that Twitter could extract Kansei words and validate consumers’ perceptions of spice drinks as an agribusiness product. The sentiment analysis revealed 78% positive and 13% neutral tweets. Subsequently, an online survey was conducted among 495 respondents aged 18 to 41, distributed through various social media platforms from June to August 2022. The respondents were Generation Z and Millennials, with Generation Z referring to individuals born between 1997 and 2012 and Millennials born between 1981 and 1996. Factor analysis identified four principal components influencing consumers’ perceptions toward spice drinks: positive attitudes were associated with the quick, milky, mixed, healthy, quality, energy, fresh, warm, and safe; benefits were affiliated with the words enjoy, rest, life, smile, and story; quality concerned easy, flavour, and spicy; and sensory dealt with sweet, aroma, and bitter.

Abstract

Most entrepreneurs have witnessed their businesses fail during the Covid-19 pandemic, and young farmers are no exception. This study revealed the challenges encountered by young farmers during the pandemic and their efforts to address them. Production, capital, marketing, and their effects on income have emerged as significant challenges for them. The participants were young farmers who received business capital through the Young Agricultural Entrepreneurial Development Program (Penumbuhan Wirausaha Muda Pertanian or PWMP). The data were gathered by census method, and 71 young farmers completed and returned the questionnaire via electronic forms. Data were analyzed using a quantitative description. The results unveiled that young farmers encountered production, capital, and marketing issues. Young farmers combated production problems by improving creativity, cooperation, and management. Forming partnerships, developing innovative products, and seeking bank loans were all viable options for addressing the capital shortage. Additionally, marketing concerns were addressed through online marketing, building partnerships, and expanding networks. Besides capital, young farmers required opportunities, mentors, and a supportive environment to succeed as entrepreneurs. The government should establish policies supporting the efforts of young farmers during the pandemic. Moreover, young farmers necessitated training and infrastructure assistance in online marketing.

Abstract

The enactment of the Village Law marks the beginning of the rural development transformation through Village Owned Enterprise (VOE) implementation. In Indonesia, 45,549 VOEs have been established in 83,931 villages. VOEs are developed with a social business model to provide economic and social benefits to the community. Unfortunately, VOEs demonstrating satisfying performance in Indonesia have not reached 600. This research focused on discovering significant factors influencing VOEs’ ability to accomplish their best economic and social performance and proposed a success pattern that other VOEs could adapt to their natural and human assets. This study adopted a qualitative mono-method with 24 sources, varying from village government officers, directors and personnel of VOEs, academicians, and other parties, focusing on exploring three VOEs with accomplishments. The findings uncovered six propositions that must be fulfilled for VOEs to attain the necessary success concerning social and economic performance. These results suggested that the village government’s commitment, the VOEs’ management professionalism, and the village community’s involvement must cooperate to produce a balanced social and economic performance. This discovery also suggested VOEs to reflect and reproduce local knowledge trough take an advantage of their distinctive natural and human resources.

Abstract

Agricultural insurance is a risk-sharing business arrangement to protect farmers who encounter problems with adverse selection and moral hazards caused by asymmetric information. This situation leads to market inefficiencies since people with more information commonly take advantage of less informed people. This study aimed to compare the performance difference in the economic efficiency of rice farming between Rice Farming Insurance (RFI) participants and non-participant farmers. Primary data were collected from 202 farmers in Tangerang Regency. The marginal value product–marginal factor cost (MVP-MFC) approach was utilized to estimate resource use efficiency in rice production. The t-test was applied to determine differences in input allocation. The MVP-MFC discovered that the use of seeds was efficient for RFI participant farmers. Meanwhile, land, organic fertilizer, and pesticide had not been efficient, and inputs of inorganic fertilizer and labor were inefficient. Conversly, non-participant farmers indicated that the use of land, seeds, organic fertilizers, and pesticides had not been efficient, but the use of inorganic fertilizers and labor was inefficient. However, the comparison test revealed no difference in the input allocation efficiency between RFI participants and non-participant farmers. Hence, innovation in media and extension methods were required to change farmers’ behavior. Government policies were also necessary to ensure the availability of inputs. In addition, avoiding adverse selection and moral hazards in agricultural insurance was required to identify hazardous groups.

Abstract

Ethiopia’s oil seed industry is expanding swiftly to meet rising domestic and foreign demand, assisting the country in generating foreign exchange earnings and income. This study aimed to quantify the level of household commercialization of Niger seed output and analyze the determinants affecting it. This research utilized a three-stage random sampling technique to gather quantitative and qualitative data from primary and secondary sources. The primary data came from sampled households through a semi-structured interview. Moreover, 150 samples were selected randomly. Descriptive statistics and the Tobit censored regression model were utilized to analyze the data. SPSS version 20 and STATA 13 software were also employed. The average level of Niger seed commercialization in the area was 0.71%. Several determinants, including the amount of Niger seed output, market information, frequency of extension service, training access, age, and total livestock unit, influenced the level Niger seed. The regional government and district leaders should strengthen the provision of different training to raise the production, productivity, and level of Niger seed commercialization by enhancing the marketable surplus of Niger seeds.

Abstract

Farmer groups have been critical in pursuing agricultural development, particularly in developing countries. Indonesia’s government has promoted the development of farmer groups in recent years, mainly in the rice sector, as a strategic agricultural commodity. This paper explored the relations between farmer group membership, farming practices, and productivity in the Indonesian rice sector. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and regression analysis were employed to examine the 2014 National Agricultural Survey data. The empirical findings confirmed the positive relations between farmer group membership and productivity in the Indonesian rice sector. Furthermore, farmers’ characteristics covering age, gender, education level, and farming practices, such as land status and access to irrigation, all played a role in determining the extent to which farmers participated in farmer groups.

Abstract

A collaborative performance system focuses on sustainable performance management in a sustainable supply chain. This system was employed to determine the relationship between the farmer group association (Gapoktan) of Lembang Agri (LA) that produce fresh vegetables and supermarkets as purchasing partners to improve performance. This study is crucial due to the shift in farmers’ roles from merely producers to entrepreneurs. This study utilized the dependency theory to explore the impact of collaborative networks on information and resource sharing and supply chain performance, as well as determine the appropriate orientation for collaborative supply chain indicators. The study surveyed 80 respondents representing different types of partnership structures from a parallel or supplier-buyer supply chain structure perspective. Moreover, the model developed on collaborative networks, information sharing, resource sharing and supply chain performance was analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results unveiled a positive and significant indirect relationship between collaborative networks and supply chain performance. The implication could be applied to identify the developing theories concerning collaborative network relationships and information and resource sharing related to supply chain performance on their networks, especially in producing fresh horticultural commodities. This study is essential to enrich the limited research in this industry.

Abstract

Since the development of the food choice questionnaire (FCQ) to assess consumers’ food choice motives in 1995, studies using the FCQ have been highly diverse. Despite the abundance of research on the topic, FCQ nevertheless manages to provide deep insights into consumers’ food choices—a crucial aspect for the agrifood industry and the formulation of food policies. This study aimed to analyze science mapping and synthesize research implications on the studies of consumers’ food choice motives using FCQ. In total, 169 FCQ-related journal articles were retrieved from the Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) databases for this study. The data were analyzed using a scoping review and bibliometric analysis (ScoRBA). The findings disclosed a positive trend in research on consumers’ food choice motives using FCQ. Notably, two seminal papers significantly influenced this field. Furthermore, specific research topics emerged and diversified over time, with recent themes encompassing consumer issues, consumer segments, research methods, and contextual factors. Recommendations for future research included: (1) conducting longitudinal studies to bridge the gap between food choice motives and dietary behaviors, with the incorporation of additional new recent factors; (2) longitudinal studies to explore nutrition, psychology, and health study groups in diverse cultural settings and more reliable research; (3) exploring FCQ research through a gender lens within varied cultural contexts, with an expansion of longitudinal research and more parameters; and (4) delving into FCQ research on adolescents, considering various potential influencing factors and utilizing data capable of elucidating causal relationships between variables.

Abstract

Indonesia's economy has developed rapidly, but it has not solved undernourishment issues among low-income people. Therefore, similar to other developing countries, Indonesia has instituted a food price subsidy program known as Rice for the Poor (RASKIN) to help low-income families meet their needs and alleviate some of their financial burdens. This study examined how RASKIN affected the intake of calories and three macronutrients of Indonesian households using the representative National Socioeconomic Survey (SUSENAS) data. In comparison to intake without the subsidy, the estimation results based on the endogenous switching regression model suggested that receiving the subsidy raised the household calorie intake by 368.4 Kcal/day for recipients and 454.6 Kcal/day for nonrecipients. Likewise, households receiving the subsidy raised their macronutrient intake, encompassing protein, carbohydrate, and fat, compared to those not receiving it. Therefore, RASKIN contributed to raising the intake of calories and three macronutrients. However, a certain portion of non-poor households were found to receive RASKIN owing to mistargeting, suggesting that the government should rectify targeting errors to enhance the effectiveness of the subsidy and attain the key purpose of improving the well-being of people with low incomes.
