The Influence of Social Capital and Human Capital on Food Security in Karangpatihan Village, Indonesia
Agriculture is vital to food security because it provides food, clothing, and shelter. Based on the 2022 Indonesian Food Security Index (IKP), Ponorogo Regency is ranked 19th out of 416 districts throughout Indonesia, with a food security score of 86.20. However, there will be a decline in rice production in Ponorogo Regency in 2022. It will, of course, impact the condition of food security in villages, one of which is Karangpatihan Village. Social capital is a fundamental aspect of creating sustainable agricultural development. This concept refers to the beliefs, networks, values, and norms facilitating cooperation and collective action to achieve common goals. The strong trust between farmers is vital to fostering cooperation and strengthening their social networks. A good social network reflects mutually agreed-upon norms for establishing relationships and interacting. This research aims to identify the influence of farmers\u27 social and human capital in supporting food security in Karangpatihan Village. Research data was obtained based on questionnaires from 250 farmers in Karangpatihan Village. The analysis used is structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis, which is used to identify the influence between variables. Based on SEM analysis, there is a positive direct relationship between social capital and food security variables. Meanwhile, the direct relationship between human capital and food security variables is negative
A Dynamic Model of Raw Water Availability for Clean Water Demand in the Bedadung Watershed
The Bedadung watershed has undergone multiple changes in land cover, resulting in high erosion, sedimentation, flooding, and population pressure, which has caused an imbalance between the demand for clean water and the availability of raw water. Changes in land function resulted in decreasing infiltration capacity and increasing surface flow. This research aims to create a dynamic model of raw water availability in the Bedadung watershed to supply the domestic and non-domestic sectors in Jember. The availability of raw water is influenced by dynamic inputs such as population, industrial, and tourism growth, as well as the expansion of agricultural land. This model will produce a causal-loop diagram (CLD) between variables and then create a stock-flow diagram (SFD) using secondary data programmed by the Vensim PLE 10.1.1 application within 50 years. The modeling results show that the need for clean water increases over time, while the availability of raw water will decrease over time after 2025. In 2057, the clean water demand (463.29x106 m3y-1) was higher than the availability of groundwater (461.775x106 m3y-1), but it was still smaller than the availability of surface water (56,853,200x109 m3y-1). Water-carrying capacity will increase until 2025, then decrease over time

The Amount of Water used to Wash Hands to Prevent The Spread of Covid-19
Based on the WHO data updated on December 28, 2021, the global tally of COVID-19 cases for that year reached 281,808,270, with a reported 5,411,759 deaths worldwide. Specifically in Indonesia, the cases total 5,411,759, with 144,081 deaths by that date. To reduce the risk of transmission, practicing good hand hygiene is crucial. Regular hand washing with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer when soap isn\u27t available helps remove pathogens from our hands, contributing to a cleaner and healthier lifestyle. Collecting rainwater in specially designed containers can be an effective and sustainable way to meet handwashing needs, supporting health protocols to prevent the spread of COVID-19. By providing an accessible water source for hand hygiene, communities, especially those with limited water access, can implement handwashing practices more consistently. This initiative is beneficial for promoting both environmental sustainability and public health, particularly in areas facing water scarcity. Additionally, filtration or disinfection processes can enhance rainwater collection systems to ensure safe water for handwashing, further supporting a cleaner and healthier environment. The result is that visitors wash their hands on average 5 times per day, with an average volume of 0.6 liters of water used in a one-time hand wash. With an interval of 6 days without rain, the maximum hand washing needs are 53.35 m3. The roof area in the market is 16,240 m2, and the water volume from effective rain is 21.11 m3. If we use a reservoir of 1200 liters, we need 22 22-unit reservoirs for maximum water demand.

Way Sekampung subwatershed is the watershed area of Way Sekampung dam. The changes in land use that occurred in the Way Sekampung subwatershed caused flooding and landslides. To reduce existing problems, vegetative and mechanical land conservation efforts are needed. In this study, the USLE method was used to estimate the rate of erosion and then map the distribution of the Erosion Hazard Index in the Way Sekampung Subwatershed with the help of Geographic Information System (GIS). Based on existing conditions, the erosion rate in 2017 was 29626.262 tons/ha/year; in 2022, the erosion rate was 76617.579 tons/ha/year. The results of the analysis of the Erosion Hazard Index in 2017 and 2022 showed four criteria, namely low with a difference of -1.115%, moderate with an increase of 1.140%, high with a difference of -0.097%, and very high with a difference of 0.071%. Conservation with new land use, construction of terraces, and check dams has resulted in a reduction in erosion in the Way Sekampung Subwatershed with an Erosion Hazard Index, which is a low index increase of 26.992% from the existing condition and a very high 22.819% reduction from the existing condition. These results show that land conservation can reduce erosion in the Way Sekampung Subwatershed
Study of Tiu Kulit Dam Reservoir Operational Pattern Simulation in Sumbawa Island
Tiu Kulit Reservoir plays a pivotal role in managing water resources in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, serving as a vital source for raw water, irrigation, and livestock consumption in the neighboring regions. This study aims to assess the operational dynamics of Tiu Kulit Reservoir across varying hydrological conditions, namely dry, normal, and wet years. The analysis is based on inflow rates and equilibrium water surface elevations. To achieve the objectives, an investigation of the reservoir\u27s operation pattern was conducted. Inflow rates and equilibrium water surface elevations were scrutinized to discern operational behaviors under different hydrological scenarios. The findings indicate distinct operational strategies for Tiu Kulit Reservoir. During dry years, the outflow rate is restricted to 1.20 m3/s at a water surface elevation of +53.07 m. Conversely, the reservoir\u27s operation in normal and wet years allows for a maximum outflow rate aimed at satisfying water demand, set at +57.00 m. In instances of excessive rainfall, the study highlights the potential for overflow beyond the spillway threshold. The study underscores the significance of these results for effective water management and resource allocation in the region. Understanding the reservoir\u27s behavior under various conditions enables informed decision-making and sustainable utilization of water resources. To build upon this study, it is recommended to implement continuous monitoring systems for both inflow and outflow rates. Furthermore, the installation of rainfall monitoring stations within the catchment area would enhance data accuracy. Regular evaluations of the reservoir\u27s operational patterns are also advised, allowing for adaptive strategies in response to evolving climate conditions. Moreover, future research endeavors should focus on augmenting water supply to meet the demands of a growing population and livestock, while optimizing agricultural practices to boost productivity
