PENGEMBANGAN USAHA INTEGRASI SAWIT SAPI: DUKUNGAN LEGISLASI DAN STAKEHOLDER
Full text linkThe area of oil palm plantations is now reaching 14.7 million hectares, and it is an opportunity for Indonesia to develop an integrated beef cattle industry with the oil-palm integrated system. However, the development of this system is not yet massive. The problem among others is the plantation area owned by the smallholder farmers which is not sufficient for grazing area. To formulate concentrate feeds for the cattle, farmers need supports from palm oil processing companies for its raw materials. This paper is prepared as a literature review aimed at analyzing the prospects and constraints, legal aspects, and stakeholders' role in developing cattle-oil palm integration. This paper concludes that there is ample opportunity to develop an oil palm-cattle integration system. Furthermore, oil palm industry development requires legal aspects, the number of farmers and companies, and the organizations. A policy is needed to develop an oil palm-cattle integration system, coordinated by the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs. The needed policies among others organizing smallholders involved in the integration system for easier access to technologies, extension, livestock health services, and access to feed raw materials such as palm kernel cake and sludge. Sustainability of oil palm-cattle integration efforts in the regions is needed to extend the status of current regulations regarding the integration system from Governor and Regency Regulations into Regional Regulations
SMART FARMING 4.0 UNTUK MEWUJUDKAN PERTANIAN INDONESIA MAJU, MANDIRI, DAN MODERN
Full text linkSmart farming 4.0 based on artificial intelligence is a flagship launched by the Ministry of Agriculture. Smart farming 4.0 encourages the farmers to work more efficient, measurable, and integrated. Through technology, farmers are able to carry out farm practice by relying on mechanization, not on the planting season, from planting to harvesting accurately. Several smart farming technologies such as blockchain for modern off farm agriculture, agri drone sprayer, drone surveillance (drone for land mapping), soil and weather sensors, intelligent irrigation systems, Agriculture War Room (AWR), siscrop (information systems) 1.0 have been implemented in some areas. However, farmers deal with various educational backgrounds, aging farmers phenomenon, and high cost of smart farming technology tools to implement smart farming. This paper aims to analyze the huge opportunities of smart farming by utilizing the potential of millennial farmers as actors and analyzing various government policies to support smart farming 4.0. The Ministry of PDTT has carried out pilot projects to implement smart farming in several locations. The Ministry of Agriculture also needs to play a role by creating a smart farming roadmap. The Government's Strategic Project 2020–2024 through food estate based on farmer corporations may support massive smart farming applications
PERAN DESA MANDIRI BENIH MENDUKUNG PERCEPATAN ADOPSI TEKNOLOGI VARIETAS UNGGUL BARU PADI
No full textAgricultural research and development agencies have produced several new improved rice varieties (NIRVs) over the past few years with various advantages to deal with climate change and increase rice production. However, until now, the adoption of NIRVs is still relatively low. This paper aims to determine the performance and problems of adopting NIRVs and recommending strategies for accelerating the adoption of NIRVs by increasing seed availability through the role of Seed Mandiri Village. This paper is the result of a review of several research results and relevant literature. Of the many NIRVs that have been released, until now, their distribution is still very limited. Most farmers still use improved rice varieties that have been released for a long time, such as Ciherang, Mekongga and IR64. The low level of availability of NIRV seeds on a commercial scale is one of the inhibiting factors for the adoption and spread of NIRVs. To increase the availability of NIRV seeds, one of them can be done by optimizing the role of the Seed Self-Reliant Village. Seed Self-Reliant Village in various regions can be encouraged to carry out sustainable breeding of NIRV seeds, especially for location-specific NIRV seeds. Thus, it is hoped that these efforts will increase the adoption of NIRVs so that it can further have implications for increasing rice production and meeting national food needs
KINERJA AGRIBISNIS MANGGA GEDONG GINCU DAN POTENSINYA SEBAGAI PRODUK EKSPOR PERTANIAN UNGGULAN
Full text linkGedong gincu mango is a specific mango variety in West Java Province, which has a high economic value and the prospect of being a superior export commodity of Indonesia. Despite its increasing production and high market prospect, gedong gincu mango agribusiness still faces various problems, both in on-farm and off-farm aspects. This paper aims to study the agribusiness of gedong gincu mango, covering both on-farm and off-farm aspects and export prospects. In general, gedong gincu mango farmers are small-scale farmers who practice traditional cultivation, harvest, and post-harvest management; are not yet market-oriented; practicing conventional marketing that relies on collecting traders, and have weak institutional. These conditions cause low productivity and diverse quality of gedong mango and are not continuously available throughout the year, which hinder the potential for wide-open exports from being appropriately utilized. It needs improvement in both on-farm and off-farm to improve the production and marketing of gedong gincu mango. At the on-farm level, efforts to increase competitiveness can be made by improving fruit production, productivity, quality, and continuity, by applying good agricultural practices. At the off-farm level, this can be done through improving facilities and infrastructures, institutions, and regulations. These efforts should involve all parties, including farmers (producers), marketing agents (collectors, traders, exporters), and policymakers

TINJAUAN HISTORIS TEKNOLOGI VARIETAS UNGGUL DAN PROGRAM INTENSIFIKASI DALAM PENINGKATAN PRODUKTIVITAS PADI BERKELANJUTAN
Full text linkSince 1943 hundreds of superior varieties of rice have been released, but domestic rice production has not been able to meet the national rice needs. One of the main problems is the decrease in fertile land due to continuoes land conversion. Therefore, the main mainstay in increasing rice production is increasing productivity through technological improvements. For this reason, Balitbangtan continues to create new high yielding varieties of rice through plant breeding. More than 200 high-yielding varieties of rice have been produced to meet the challenge of increasing productivity. This paper aims to examine the historical profile of the creation of superior rice varieties inline with intensification programs, and their role in increasing national rice production. The study was conducted using a desk study approach, which was to examine secondary data and literature from various publications. The results of the study showed that the creation of high yielding varieties accompanied by various intensification programs has succeeded in increasing rice productivity in a sustainable manner. The challenge for Balitbangtan is the creation of new high yielding varieties with higher yields than those currently available

DINAMIKA KREDIT PROGRAM DAN PERSPEKTIF SKEMA BARU KREDIT USAHA RAKYAT UNTUK PEMBIAYAAN PERTANIAN 2020-2024
Full text linkOne of the Government's efforts to achieve food security is through increasing People’s Business Credit (KUR) fund. KUR disbursement, so far, is relatively low and it is necessary to implement the new scheme perspective on KUR. This paper presents the new scheme perspective on KUR to improve its disbursement as well as agricultural production. The basis for the new scheme perspective is derived from Agricultural Financing Program review, KUR implementation, driving factors and the benefits. Agricultural Financing Program before and during KUR era shows that the success of KUR disbursement is affected by socialization and human resources capacity. This finding is supported by the review that KUR disbursement success is determined by human’s character. Existing KUR scheme gets better and successful in increasing the farmers’ income. On the other hand, some unsuccessful results ok KUR is due to moral hazard. The new scheme of KUR should focus on effective and efficient socialization of this program credit to all stakeholders. For example, socialization is implemented using social media which is easily understood and accessed. Utilizing applications of cellular phone is also very useful to improve the program knowledge and to deal with moral hazard. Additionally, it is necessary to include ecological aspect as well as youth and women access in the scheme
