ANALYSIS OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN AN ATTEMPT TO ESCALATE BLACK TEA PRODUCTION AT PT PERKEBUNAN TAMBI WONOSOBO, CENTRAL JAVA
Objective: This study aims to analyze the role of supply chain management (SCM) in addressing production constraints and increasing black tea production at PT Perkebunan Tambi, where demand exceeds supply, causing operational inefficiencies. Methods: A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving systematic observations, documentation, and interviews with key informants from the production and marketing divisions. This approach enabled a detailed analysis of phenomena affecting supply chain activities and production processes. Results: The findings indicate that the implementation of SCM at PT Perkebunan Tambi is suboptimal due to recurring constraints in key areas, including machinery reliability, transportation of tea shoots, workforce readiness, and inventory management. The primary bottleneck lies in the aging machinery, which, despite regular maintenance, fails to perform effectively, leading to production delays and reduced output. These challenges hinder the alignment of production capacity with market demand, creating a supply-demand gap. Novelty: This study highlights the critical link between aging infrastructure and supply chain inefficiencies, emphasizing the need for strategic machine renewal and improved inventory management to sustain continuous operations and meet growing market demands. The research provides actionable insights into overcoming production challenges through enhanced SCM practices, contributing to the literature on supply chain optimization in tea production industries

RISK AND PROFIT ANALYSIS IN INVESTMENT DECISIONS ON AGGRESSIVE INVESTORS IN JAVA ISLAND IN 2020 AN EMPIRICAL STUDY ON THE INDONESIAN CAPITAL MARKET
Objective: This study examines the relationship between investment decisions, high-risk profiles, and medium-risk profiles with emotional anxiety among aggressive investors in Java during 2020, addressing the underexplored psychological dimensions of investor behavior. Method: Adopting a quantitative observational research design, the study utilized panel data comprising 20 observations from 7 cross-sections over the 2020–2022 period. Panel regression analysis was conducted to assess the impact of the variables on emotional anxiety, with data sourced from credible institutions to ensure reliability. Results: The findings indicate that investment decisions, high-risk profiles, and medium-risk profiles do not significantly influence the emotional anxiety of aggressive investors. A low R-squared value suggests that these variables account for only a small proportion of the observed variation in emotional anxiety. Novelty: This study provides fresh insights by highlighting the limited explanatory power of traditional financial and risk-related factors on emotional anxiety, suggesting the need to explore broader psychological and behavioral elements. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating emotional factors into risk management strategies, enabling policymakers and practitioners to better address investor resilience amidst market volatility. By focusing on the intersection of financial and psychological aspects, this research contributes to a nuanced understanding of aggressive investor behavior in the Indonesian capital market
INVESTMENT STRATEGY, BUSINESS CAPITAL AND INCOME AGAINST RECESSION RISK THROUGH GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF ACHIEVING SDG'S NO. 9
Objective: This study examines the relationship between investment methodology, working capital, and income in the context of recessionary uncertainty. It specifically explores the role of government regulations in advancing Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) No. 9, focusing on industrial innovation, infrastructure, and resilience. Method: The investigation employs an explanatory and scientific approach, integrating theoretical and empirical analysis to assess the interactions between investment strategies, working capital, income, and government regulations during economic downturns. Data are analyzed to evaluate the mediating effects of government regulation on these variables. Results: The findings indicate that investment strategies targeting critical infrastructure foster durable economic expansion, enhancing resilience during recessions. Flexible working capital management mitigates market instability risks. The results reveal that investment strategies and income significantly influence government regulation, while enterprise capital does not. Additionally, investment strategies and venture capital impact recession risks indirectly through government regulation, which also mediates the influence of income on recession risk. Novelty: This study uniquely highlights the mediating role of government regulation in linking income and recession risk, as well as its impact on investment strategies and venture capital. By aligning these insights with SDG No. 9, it contributes to the broader understanding of how economic policies and private sector strategies can collaboratively enhance resilience during economic downturns
