Analysis of Factors Affecting Food Security in Tapal Kuda Region, East Java, Indonesia
One of the biggest issues facing countries around the world, including the Tapal Kuda region, is food security. Due to the large and productive agricultural area, a variety of food crops, including vegetables, corn, and rice, can be produced. However, it has food insecurity that can be caused by a decrease in crop area, lack of irrigation, low technology, social and economic changes. The purpose of this study is to ensure that poverty levels, rice production, GDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product), and rice prices have an impact on food security in Tapal Kuda. The sampling method used in the study was used deliberately, namely the purposive method. The selected examples are seven districts in the Tapal Kuda region including Probolinggo, Pasuruan, Lumajang, Jember, Bondowoso, Situbondo and Banyuwangi Regencies. Panel data regression analysis is a technique used that involves panel data or variations of cross section data and time series data. The analysis was carried out by managing the data using the Eviews software. The findings of the study show that poverty and rice prices have a negative impact on food security in the Tapal Kuda region, GDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) and rice production have a positive impact. Optimizing the government's commitment to developing programs based on increasing local food production to keep pace with population growth and ensuring public access to safe and quality food can increase food security
Farmer's Capacity of Palm Integrated Beef Cattle Businesses on Manokwari District, Indonesia
The research aims to analyze the capacity of farmers and the factors that influence the capacity of farmers in the integrated palm oil beef cattle business in Manokwari Regency. The research was carried out in Manokwari Regency, West Papua. The sample was 228 breeders using the proportional cluster random sampling technique. Primary data was collected using questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and FGD. Independent variables consist of individual characteristics, support from external factors, and the role of agricultural instructors. The dependent variable of this research is farmer capacity. Analysis techniques used descriptive statistics and SEM (Structural Equation Models). The results show that the business capacity of farmers in the palm oil integrated beef cattle business is in the low category, which is indicated by the ability of farmers who do not pay attention to the technicalities of integrated cattle cultivation, such as the majority of cattle breeds whose mothers and bulls are unknown, raising livestock in oil palm plantations with lack of supervision, the mating system naturally, with any male, no health checks and deworming are ever carried out, easy marketing conditions mean that efforts to establish cooperation are not a concern. The capacity of farmers in the integrated beef cattle business on oil palm plantations is directly influenced by (1) the individual characteristics of the farmer as reflected by formal education, number of livestock, perception and motivation of the farmer; (2) External support reflected by government, family, institutional and market support; (3) the role of agricultural instructors as facilitators, communicators and consultants.
The Effect of Conservation Use on Technical Efficiency of Carrot Farming in East Java, Indonesia
East Java Province, one of the carrot centers, experiences fluctuations in carrot production, which is thought to be due to inefficient production factors and land degradation due to low conservation use. The study investigates the level of conservation activities adopted by carrot farmers in East Java Province, focusing on technical efficiency and the impact of socio-economic factors on this efficiency. This study was conducted purposively in Sumberbrantas Village, Batu City, and Wonokerso Village, Probolinggo Regency, using a simple random sampling method with data collection through interviews. The analysis method used was the Likert scale scoring method for the level of conservation adoption by farmers, stochastic frontier analysis using the Cobb-Douglas function with maximum likelihood estimate (MLE), and tobit regression analysis to determine the effect of conservation on technical efficiency. Results show that conservation adoption is mostly low, with factors like land, chemical fertilizers, organic fertilizers, pesticides, and labor positively affecting production. The average level of technical efficiency is 0.4970, with location and education having a significant positive effect. Conservation variables do not have a significant effect

Analysis of Rice Price Volatility in Medan City, Indonesia
One of the primary challenges faced by government policies concerning agricultural commodities is maintaining food price stability. Instability in food prices can have significant economic, political, and social repercussions. This study provides an in-depth analysis of rice price fluctuations on a daily basis, offering a clearer understanding of rice price volatility in Medan. Through seasonality and volatility analysis, this research examines the changing trends in rice prices and their associated fluctuations. It is revealed that rice prices in Medan peak in February, and the lowest rice prices occur in December. The rice prices were more volatile before the pandemic than after it. During the pre-pandemic period, the correlation between the prices of various food items was relatively low, meaning that the prices of different commodities were not strongly linked. However, in the post-pandemic period, the correlation between rice prices and other food items in Medan became more significant, suggesting that the prices of rice were more closely tied to those of other essential foodstuffs. Although rice price volatility in Medan is generally low throughout most of the year, the government should focus particular attention on the months between October and February, when volatility tends to be higher due to factors such as seasonal demand spikes and external influences like weather conditions. By proactively managing supply and demand, ensuring adequate rice stocks, and supporting local rice production, the Medan government can more effectively navigate periods of heightened volatility and ensure that rice prices remain stable and affordable for all consumer
Analysis of Customer Preferences and Willingness to Pay for Healthy Salad in Malang, Indonesia
The growing trend of healthier eating habits, driven by increasing health awareness, presents a business opportunity for SMEs in the healthy food sector. This study investigates consumer preferences, attribute importance, and willingness to pay for vegetable salads in Malang, using a discrete choice experiment with a conditional logit model. A survey of 150 respondents who had purchased and consumed vegetable salads was conducted, analyzing key attributes, including health, mood, convenience, sensory appeal, natural content, and price, adapted from the food choice questionnaire and processed using R-Studio software. The findings indicate that consumers prefer vegetable salads that are high in fiber, free of additives, available in nearby shops, relaxing when consumed, and have a good taste. The ranking of attributes is important in purchasing decisions, as it follows the order of health, natural content, convenience, mood, and sensory appeal. Consumers' willingness to pay shows that they are willing to pay IDR 10,416 for "simple to make," IDR 19,410 for "ready in no time," IDR 11,549 for "contain natural ingredients," IDR 2,101 for "make them feel good when consumed," IDR 24,287 for "smell nice," and IDR 26,334 for "look good." These findings provide essential implications for SMEs, guiding product development towards fiber-rich and additive-free vegetable salads with appealing sensory attributes and easy preparation. Additionally, marketing strategies should emphasize health benefits, natural ingredients, and convenience while leveraging sensory appeal to attract a broader audience. Pricing strategies should reflect the premium consumers are willing to pay, and distribution channels should ensure accessibility. By aligning product offerings with consumer preferences and understanding their willingness to pay, SMEs can enhance their competitiveness and achieve sustainable growth in the expanding healthy food market
Performance Test of Vegetative Characteristics of Pigmented Local Rice at Various Levels of Soil Water Content
The conversion of land to dry land promotes the use of local rice varieties capable of withstanding drought conditions, thus contributing to the development of sustainable agricultural practices. The anthocyanin content of pigmented rice may confer a greater resilience to cell damage caused by drought conditions than white rice. This study aims to evaluate the vegetative characteristics of local pigmented rice at varying soil water content levels. The study was conducted from June to August 2024 at the Agricultural Laboratory of Sebelas Maret University. Eight rice varieties were utilized, including two control rice varieties, two local white rice varieties, and four local pigmented rice varieties. The experimental design was a completely randomized block design split plot with three blocks and two factorials: eight rice varieties and four levels of soil water content. Data analysis was conducted using the ANOVA, Duncan, and regression tests. The findings indicated that Hitam Cempo and Merah Wangi exhibited optimal growth at a lower soil water content of field capacity (25% FC) than white rice and IR64 control. Hitam Mutiara and Merah Wangi exhibited optimal responses at 75% and 50% FC, respectively, compared to the white rice and IR64 control varieties. Leaf rolling scores increased in black and red rice as soil water content decreased compared to white rice. The research findings indicate that, based on the vegetative characteristics of local pigmented rice, it has the potential to be more drought tolerant than white rice. Further research on testing physiological and biochemical resistance traits is needed to support the development of rice types that can be planted in dry land
