https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37025
<p>The digital financialization of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) increases access to information and facilitates resource management. During the pandemic, there was a significant surge in digital transactions, increasing sales of several products, with Gorontalo Province experiencing a 3.57% rise. This research investigates the impact of social factors on digital financial literacy and their influence on the performance of MSMEs. Conducted in Gorontalo City from March to July 2024, this research employed an explanatory approach, focusing on the founders of MSMEs, specifically 50 individuals who served as respondents. Primary data was collected through structured interviews using questionnaires. The analysis utilized Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS), supported by Smart-PLS 3.0 software. The findings reveal that social factors significantly influence digital financial literacy, although they do not directly affect MSMEs' performance. Digital technology, however, has a significant impact on MSMEs' performance and mediates the relationship between social factors and performance. Despite these advancements, many MSME actors lack proper financial management practices, such as recording daily cash inflows and outflows, limiting their financial awareness. Targeted financial education programs are essential and include hands-on training on the use of financial management applications for tracking income and expenses. Furthermore, collaborations with financial institutions, fintech platforms, and e-commerce providers can facilitate training in digital financial tools and services. Although participation in such initiatives is currently limited, institutions like Bank Indonesia can scale up efforts to develop model MSMEs that inspire broader adoption of digital financial practices among other enterprises.</p>Echan AdamNofita BobihuYuriko Boekoesoe

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37971
<p>Shallot farming has the main characteristic of being season-dependent. The phenomenon of shallot production scarcity in central areas generally occurs during the off-season, when production is 30% lower compared to the in-season. Human resource development is a key factor in facing this challenge. Globalization demands creative and innovative farmers to thrive and compete. The role of entrepreneurial behavior in the agricultural sector is essential to create more innovative, independent, and risk-taking farmers in managing their farms. This research aimed to (1) examine how individual characteristics and the business environment influence the entrepreneurial behavior of shallot farmers and (2) assess the influence of this entrepreneurial behavior on the performance of shallot farming. This study employed SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Modeling) using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach for data analysis, with a total sample of 130 respondents. The results showed that individual characteristics and the business environment positively and significantly influence entrepreneurial behavior, which in turn positively affects shallot farming performance. The improvement of farmers' entrepreneurial behavior is influenced by internal factors (individual characteristics) and external factors (business environment), yet the ability to grow and take risks remains a weak indicator. Building capacity through training and gaining access to low-interest financing (KUR) can help farmers overcome challenges. Additionally, low farming commitment due to unstable farmer incomes can be addressed through price stabilization programs, such as partnerships to ensure market access with consistent selling prices. Future research is recommended to explore strategies for enhancing farm performance through factors beyond entrepreneurial behavior.</p>Aulia AdetyaDwi RachminaLukman Mohammad Baga

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39045
<p><em>Rice is a staple food for many people worldwide, especially in Asia, including Indonesians, with conventional white rice being the most commonly consumed type. However, conventional white rice has nutritional limitations and a high glycemic index, which can negatively impact health. This study explores consumer preferences and Willingness to Pay (WTP) for porang-based analogue rice as a healthier alternative. Using the Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) method, data were collected from 150 respondents in Bogor, Indonesia, through voluntary response sampling. The results show that attributes such as porang rice type, softness, clear white colour, packaging, well-known brand, ease of preparation, longer shelf life, and health claims significantly influence consumer preferences. Consumers are willing to pay a higher price: IDR 46,040/kg for porang rice, IDR 58,600/kg for soft rice, IDR 43,338/kg for rice with a clear white colour, IDR 61,860/kg for packaged rice, IDR 61,389/kg for rice with a well-known brand, IDR 40,028/kg for rice that is easy to prepare, IDR 41,200/kg for rice with a longer shelf life, and IDR 90,401/kg for rice with health claims. These findings highlight the growing demand for healthier food options and provide valuable insights for producers and marketers to develop effective strategies. Emphasizing product quality and health benefits is crucial to increasing market acceptance of porang-based analogue rice.</em></p>Wahyu ViarianiRita NurmalinaHarmini

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39860
<p>Hj. Karmi chilli chips, a small enterprise in Dumai City, Riau, Indonesia, is contending with competition from local competitors. This research seeks to revitalize the marketing mix by examining consumer perceptions and digital strategies. The study assesses consumer views on the 7Ps marketing mix (product, price, place, promotion, process, people, physical evidence) for Hj. Karmi chilli chips. This study examines the present condition of these elements and proposes improvements to boost competitiveness and facilitate market growth. Utilizing survey methods with 40 participants and descriptive analysis based on the Likert scale and gap analysis, the study discovered that consumers have a very positive perception of price, people, and process, and a positive perception of place and product. Consumers rated physical evidence and promotion as average. Overall, the marketing perception of Hj. Karmi's consumers are positive. The product features simple packaging that emphasizes the product itself. The chips are priced competitively in Dumai City, providing affordable quality. The store's location suffers from poor accessibility and parking. Limited promotional activities have led to low awareness. Family members manage operations, allowing for close oversight but restricting growth. Consumers highly rate the production process for its quality and hygiene. The physical evidence was considered unattractive. Enhancements are necessary in product, place, promotion, people, and physical evidence to boost competitiveness. Recommendations include enhancing product quality and packaging, improving store accessibility, increasing digital promotion, hiring non-family employees, and upgrading the store layout to attract consumers in Dumai City, Riau.</p>Fanny SeptyaJohn Atsu AgbolosooJumatri YusriSusila Pitri

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/36522
<p>The objective of this research is to see the development of cocoa competitiveness and its determining factors in the Southeast Sulawesi trade. The data used in the study were collected from several institutions, namely Central Statistics Agency, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the International Cocoa Organization (ICCO), in the form of time series data from 2011-2022. The research methodology applied the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) for determining the development of cocoa competitiveness and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis for the determinants of cocoa trade. The results of the analysis show that Southeast Sulawesi's superior cocoa commodity has competitiveness. The RCA value can be seen from 2011 to 2018 and is still quite good. It is proven that the average RCA is above 4, although in the following year the RCA value shows a decreasing trend until 2022. Moreover, the determining factors for the competitiveness of Southeast Sulawesi’s cocoa are land area, production factors, domestic prices and international prices. Only the domestic price variable partially has a notable effect on its competitiveness. This research can be made a reference for the local government to adopt any policies regarding the export of cocoa beans and processed products so that it can encourage and increase the competitiveness of Southeast Sulawesi cocoa through implementing downstreaming, improving infrastructure and national cocoa research and development.</p>Masitah MasitahDoddy Ismunandar BahariAnnisa AmaliahCampina Illa PrihantiniNursalamAyu WulandaryKhaerunnisa Khaerunnisa

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37398
<p>Food security is a key global challenge, with agriculture playing a crucial role in ensuring food availability, access, and stability. Farming families, especially in remote border areas, often face poverty and unmet nutritional needs, making them vulnerable to food insecurity. Factors like poor infrastructure and high food prices exacerbate the situation in these regions. Pepper farming is a vital income source for farmers in West Kalimantan's border areas. This study analyzes pepper farming income and its impact on food security using descriptive and logistic regression methods. This study aims to analyze the income structure of pepper farmers and its relationship with food security by employing descriptive statistics and logistic regression methods. Findings reveal that pepper farmers derive income from three primary sources: on-farm, off-farm, and non-farm activities, with an average annual farming income of IDR 48,331,800. The study classified most pepper farmers as "food secured," emphasizing that income from farming and off-farm work significantly influences their food security status. These results underscore the importance of income diversification and agricultural development in mitigating food insecurity, particularly in rural and border communities..</p>Yohana PaulinaErlinda YurisinthaeDewi Kurniasih

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/38310
<p>Curcuma is frequently employed as an appetite enhancer and for medicinal purposes. In addition to being consumed domestically, Indonesian curcuma is also exported to the global market. This research identifies the manner in which Indonesian curcuma competes in the worldwide market, taking into account the fact that it also competes with curcuma from various other countries. The market position of Indonesian curcuma is identified using the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) method. The comparator countries selected for this study are five curcuma exporters, namely India, the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, and the USA. The analysis utilised time series data from January 2013 to December 2022, and the identification results of this study indicate that Indonesian curcuma is a normal good with elastic and responsive properties to the global demand for curcuma. Furthermore, it is observed that Indonesian curcuma substitutes or replaces Indian curcuma. Conversely, Dutch, German, Spanish, and USA curcuma exhibit a complementary relationship with Indonesian curcuma. To enhance the competitiveness of Indonesian curcuma in the global market, it is imperative to augment the volume and quality of exports, with a particular focus on standardisation and enhancing the added value through processing. This strategic approach is expected to not only ensure price competitiveness with other exporters but also to expand the share of Indonesian curcuma exports in the global market.</p>Muhammad Ali Yafi

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/36305
<p>Vegetables have various benefits for the human body, but most people's consumption is still lacking. The purposes of this research were to analyze (1) the vegetable consumption adequacy level and (2) the determinants of the adequacy level of vegetable consumption of urban households in Lampung Province. This study used a descriptive method with secondary data from the 2019 National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas), from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Lampung Province. A total of 1,500 households were used as samples. The data analysis method used was descriptive and a statistical verification analysis. The results showed that urban households consume an average of 559.37 grams/day, or 152.53 grams/capita/day, of vegetables. The level of household vegetable consumption was still low, with an average of 61.01 percent of the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendation. Household income, number of household members, age of the head of household, the education level of the household's head, and the education level of the housewife positively influenced the adequacy level of household vegetable consumption. The number of household members was the variable that had the greatest influence on the household vegetable consumption level. Income and family size are determinants of adequate vegetable consumption. Therefore, to increase vegetable consumption, the government should educate the community with a focus on allocating income for healthier food. Educational activities can be integrated with ongoing government programs.</p>Wuryaningsih Dwi Sayekti Dyah Aring Hepiana LestariFembriarti Erry PrasmatiwiRabiatul Adawiyah

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37240
<p>The adoption of digital agricultural technologies is regarded as a pivotal measure for enhancing productivity and efficiency in Indonesia's paddy farming sector. This research is concerned with the factors that influence the adoption of digital technologies among paddy farmers in Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan. A quantitative approach was employed in the study, which involved 150 farmers. The role of government support, farmer characteristics, mentoring, and perceptions in promoting agricultural digitalisation was analysed. The findings indicate that the role of the government, particularly in the development of infrastructure and the provision of financial assistance, is the most significant factor influencing the adoption of digital technologies. Mentoring programs, in particular those that concentrate on the spheres of education and motivation, also assume a pivotal role. However, contrary to expectations, farmers' perceptions alone do not significantly impact their decision to adopt digital technologies. This suggests that, while attitudes towards technology are favourable, structural and educational support are vital for effective implementation. The study concludes that the key factors in fostering digital transformation in the region's agricultural sector are the enhancement of infrastructure, the provision of targeted training, and the offering of financial incentives.</p>Hardi Dominikus BancinResmaya Agnesia Mutiara SiraitSigit Sugiardi

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37993
<p>This study aims to analyze the level of labour productivity and the factors influencing labour productivity in independent oil palm plantations. The research has taken place in Bangunrejo Sub-district, Central Lampung Regency. Data collection used the survey method. The sample size was 70 independent oil palm farmers. Sampling of oil palm farmers using a stratified random sampling method according to the age of the oil palm plants. Based on the conditions at the research location, the age of the plants is categorized into 19-12 years, 13-16 years, 17-21 years, 22-25 years. The sample size of each age category is 8, 14, 24 and 24 farmers. Data analysis employed descriptive quantitative methods and multiple linear regression. The results revealed that there is a tendency that the older the plant, the higher the labour productivity. The level of labour productivity in independent oil palm farms in the 9–12 year plant age group was 247.40 kg TBS/HOK, 13–16 year plant age was 250.81 kg TBS/HOK, 17–21 year plant age was 230.70 kg TBS/HOK, and 22–25 year plant age was 253.95 kg TBS/HOK. This is reinforced by the results of the regression analysis, which shows that when the land size, farming experience, and age of oil palm plants increase, the labour productivity of independent oil palm farms also increases.</p>Dyah Aring Hepiana LestariBustanul ArifinRirin Aristiyani

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39072
<p>This study focuses on analyzing the implementation of Musi Rawas Regency Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2018 concerning Sustainable Food Crop Land Protection (LP2B). In the study, interviews were conducted with informants related to the research aimed at developing a strategy for implementing Musi Rawas Regency Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2018, concerning the protection of sustainable food crop land in Musi Rawas Regency. The method used in this study is interpretive structural modelling (ISM). The ISM method is a modeling technique that can summarize expert opinions to provide specific opinions on the hierarchy of sub-elements according to each element contained in the system. The results obtained from this study indicate that the main obstacle is the lack of optimal socialization regarding sustainable food crop land protection policies to the community, and the need for increased farmer training to implement sustainable agricultural practices to protect food crop areas and land sustainably.</p>IndarwantoYuwanaAtra RomeidaGunggung SenoajiReflisRahmi Yuristia

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39963
<p>Globally four main vegetable oils are soybean, rapeseed, sunflower, and palm oils. Although these oils compete, their prices typically trend in the same direction. This research aims to investigate the short-term and long-term pricing relationships among these four oils. After using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) for analysis, the study applies variance decomposition and impulse response approaches. Monthly data from January 2003 to December 2024 is included in the dataset. The results show that each vegetable oil's price is impacted by its historical price in the short run. On the other hand, the four oil prices show a long-term link over the long run, suggesting that they are cointegrated. It is evident from variance decomposition and impulse response function analysis that soybean oil's price significantly has a greater influence on the price of palm, sunflower, and rapeseed oils. The conclusion is that the price fluctuations of rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, and palm oil are largely driven by changes in soybean oil prices.</p>Lela Novita SariFeryantoRachmat Pambudy

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/35733
<p><em>Toraja’s culture is distinct and captivating, with unique traditions passed down through generations. Among them, the tradition of serving and consuming tuak (a traditional alcoholic beverage) stands out, particularly in ceremonies like Rambu Tuka' (thanksgiving) and Rambu Solo' (funeral). Although many view tuak as a drink that can intoxicate and lead to health issues, it also holds potential as a profitable business if seen from a different perspective. This research investigates the business opportunities of Toraja tuak by examining social, economic, and cultural factors to understand how the economic conditions of tuak producers might be improved and gain broader acceptance. The study aims to analyze the viability of tuak as a business, factoring in social, economic, and cultural dimensions. The research is conducted in three stages: first, identifying issues through interviews and FGDs; second, conducting an in-depth literature review and gathering primary data on tuak business opportunities; and third, collecting secondary data, processing and analyzing it, and drawing conclusions. Results indicate that the tuak business holds significant promise when viewed through these comprehensive lenses, offering valuable social, economic, and cultural benefits.</em></p>Dwi Prasetyawati ThanaYohanis PadallinganFarizah Dhaifina Amran

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/36536
<p>The increase in internet users and the trend of online food shopping have created risks that affect consumer purchase decisions when buying food products online. This research aims to examine how risk perception influences the purchasing decisions of online food products. This study was conducted in Pontianak, Kalimantan Barat. The region's expanding digital infrastructure offers significant e-commerce growth opportunities in the food sector. However, uncertainties and perceived risks may pose challenges for both consumers and the local industry. The sample was determined using convenience sampling. The data collected was primary data obtained from a questionnaire completed by 150 consumers of online food products. The variables involved in this research were financial risk, product risk, time risk, delivery risk, and consumer purchase decisions. The data analysis utilized Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) within a quantitative framework to explore and validate relationships between key variables. This included descriptive analysis to summarize data characteristics and Partial Least Squares (PLS) testing with SmartPLS 4 software. This approach will offer a thorough overview of the data and a detailed analysis of structural relationships. The research shows that delivery risk, financial risk, and product risk significantly affect consumer purchasing decisions, with delivery risk being the most influential. Changes in delivery risk will notably impact buying behaviour. In contrast, time risk does not significantly impact purchasing decisions, as evidenced by a path coefficient (0.069), t-value (1.007<t-table 1.96), and p-value (0.314>0.05).</p>ZulfikriEva DolorosaDewi Kurniati

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37530
<p>Improving the technical efficiency of cassava is essential, as it enhances resource use, boosts, and drives broader economic growth. This study aimed to estimate the technical efficiency of cassava production as a contribution to food security, job creation, and sustainable agriculture-based development. Trenggalek Regency was chosen as the research location, considering that the regency is in the centre of cassava production in East Java Province, as a key factor in achieving sustainable agricultural development. The data were obtained through interviews with 70 cassava farmers, selected using stratified random sampling across two sub-districts. The data used in this study were primary and secondary data, while the data analysis used the stochastic frontier production function. The results of the study on the efficiency of production factors include land area (89.31), cassava seeds (5.36), labour (34.20), NPK fertiliser (6.70), KCL fertiliser (0.69), SP36 fertiliser (0.51), urea fertiliser (-0.49), and pesticide (-0.09). In general, cassava farming in Trenggalek Regency is not technically efficient in utilising production factors. In fact, technical efficiency is an important factor that needs to be considered, and there is great potential to increase cassava production through efficiency improvements. Therefore, interventions are needed to improve the technical efficiency of cassava farming through intensive counselling and training programs, appropriate input use, technological development, and improved access to capital, aiming to positively impact farmers` income, food security, and sustainable agricultural development.</p>Ida Syamsu RoidahNoor RizkiyahFatchur RozciHerry Nur Faisal

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/38316
<p>This research examines the economic behaviour of independent oil palm smallholders in fulfilling household expenditures from all their income sources and their level of welfare at present and the stability in the future. The income of oil palm smallholders in Megang Sakti District, Musi Rawas Regency, was IDR 24,731,506 per hectare per year. The total income of the farm household was IDR 43,614,839 per year, which was contributed by the oil palm plantation, the non-oil palm plantation, and non-farming productive activities.All household expenditures could be covered by all existing sources of income, and the net future income will increase as the oil palm plantation enters productive age periods. It has been revealed that oil palm plantations operated by independent smallholders present significant opportunities for economic growth and rural development, but they raise challenges related to sustainability, market access, and social equity. The independent oil palm farmers are recommended to (1) form an independent farmer institution and implement proper and sustainable institution management and (2) submit a proposal to the Oil Palm Plantation Fund Management Agency (BPDPKS) and other financial institutions to demand a grant or get a loan at an affordable interest rate for financing their future business activities. Furthermore, there are ten practical actions that can be implemented by the independent oil palm smallholders.</p>LifianthiElly RosanaAndy MulyanaThirtawati

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39841
<p>Effective risk management is essential for rice farmers to achieve sustainable agriculture. Rice production is inherently influenced by uncertainties that can lead to yield declines or, in severe cases, complete crop failure. These uncertainties arise from various factors, including climate change, nutrient leaching, soil erosion, landslides, floods, pests, and droughts. Such risks not only threaten production but also have short-term impacts on food security at regional and national levels, potentially resulting in rice scarcity and rising prices. This study aims to analyze rice production and its associated risks in Purbalingga Regency, Central Java. Using multiple linear regression and multiplicative heteroscedasticity regression methods, the study incorporates novel elements such as agricultural inputs (land size, seeds, urea fertilizer, pesticides, and machinery), socio-demographic factors (planting season, education, farming experience), and government policies (ownership of farmer cards and extension service intensity). The findings indicate that land area, urea fertilizer, pesticides, agricultural tools, Farmer Card ownership, extension services, and planting seasons significantly affect rice production and its risks. These results underscore the importance of enhancing farmers' capabilities through improved agricultural inputs, education, and a deeper understanding of evolving planting processes, ultimately enabling more effective risk management strategies.</p>Sodik Dwi PurnomoSri SundariDamar JatiHeru CahyoCahyaningtyas Ria UripiSully Kemala OctisariTiladela Luhita

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/36315
<p>The Rice farming insurance (AUTP) program is a risk transfer mechanism designed to help farmers mitigate losses due to crop failures. This program is crucial as rice farming faces high level of risks and uncertainty. This study aims to analyze farmer’s attitudes toward AUTP and their satisfaction with the program’s attributes. Attitudes reflect farmer’s acceptance, trust, and perceptions of the benefits of the insurance, while satisfaction indicates the extent to wich their expectations are met. The research was conducted in Lampung Province, involving 161 randomly selected respondents. Farmers' attitudes were analyzed using Fishbein Multiattribute method, which evaluates their perceptions of various insurance attributes. Satisfaction levels were measured using the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI), providing a quantitative perspective on farmer’s experiences with the AUTP Program. Base on the Fishbein Multiattribute analysis, farmer’s attitudes towards AUTP categorized as positive. This score indicates that farmers hold a favorable view of the AUTP program, with the highest scores attributed to service providers and pricing. According to CSI Analysis, farmer’s satisfaction was categorized as moderately satisfactory level. This indicates that although farmer’s needs are largely fulfilled, some aspects of the AUTP program still require improvement. To enhance farmer’s satisfaction and partisipation, additional effors are needed, such as expanding program outreach, refining the claims process, and offering better compensation. These actions are anticipated to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of the AUTP program in the future.</p>Dwi HaryonoNovi Rosanti Dewi Mulia SariRiri WulandariEbenezer Sinambela

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/37387
<p>Pineapple leaf waste (PALW) is often perceived as an agricultural by-product with limited utility and lacking economic value. This study pioneers the evaluation of added value from pineapple leaf waste in Prabumulih. It explores innovative strategies for developing the Wiwa Producer Cooperative using the Hayami method and SWOT analysis. The findings reveal that all processed products, such as woven fabric and cloths, derived from pineapple leaf waste generated a high and profitable value-added ratio. A key strength factor is that the Miwa Pineapple Producer Cooperative is a pioneer of pineapple leaf processing in Prabumulih. However, significant weaknesses include limited human resources and capital, while opportunities exist in promotional events, and threats arise from the lengthy production process. The cooperative adopts an aggressive strategy, emphasising market penetration, market development, and product innovation through the Strengths-Opportunities (S-O) approach. The findings underline the economic potential of pineapple leaf waste as a sustainable resource, offering a pathway to rural economic empowerment and environmental conservation. This study provides actionable strategies for policymakers and cooperative leaders to enhance competitiveness, foster innovation, and promote sustainable practices in the agricultural sector. By participating in broader promotional events, maintaining product quality, expanding market reach, and innovating product offerings, the cooperative can ensure sustainable growth and contribute to the circular economy.</p>Erni PurbiyantiYulia SariMerna Ayu SulastriTrisna Wahyu Swasdiningrum PutriGhaitsa Safira Adzra

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/39388
<p>One of the key challenges faced by the peasant movement after occupying disputed land is optimizing its utilization to support sustainable livelihoods. This study investigates land utilization practices following the occupation of abandoned plantation concession in Nanggung District, Bogor Regency. Of the 37 occupied land blocks across three villages in the district, this study focuses on a single block located in Cisarua Village. Employing a mixed-method approach, quantitative data were collected through a census survey of 47 farming households managing land in the selected block, complemented by qualitative data from in-depth interviews and field observations. The findings reveal diverse land utilization orientations—ranging from commercial and subsistence farming to non-agricultural activities—and substantial variations in commodity production and farm income. This diversity is primarily shaped by two factors: (1) individual respondent characteristics, notably farming experience, and (2) household characteristics, particularly landholding size. These findings underscore the importance of improving post-occupation support systems to ensure that land reform leads to long-term socio-economic benefits for peasant households.</p>Ai Siti Nur AssiyahMohamad Shohibuddin

https://ejournal.unib.ac.id/agrisep/article/view/40868
<p>Human resilience is related to the availability of natural resources, such as water, which is developed through community empowerment and technology. Nganti Village, Bojonegoro is one of the villages that is vulnerable to the availability of clean water for daily consumption. So, this research aims to (1) analyze the problems and potential of water sources that are not utilized by the Nganti community, (2) analyze community strategies in dealing with water problems, and (3) simulate alternative membrane technology based on community empowerment. This research used a combined approach, quantitative and qualitative, involving key informants, including the Village Head, Head of the Clean Water Association, Ngraho Sub-district Head, and Community Leaders, in addition to a survey of 40 Nganti-Ngraho residents. Data analysis is descriptive statistical and qualitative. The water quality of a spring in Nganti Village shows that the water is not suitable for drinking, washing and latrines (MCK) due to the high content of iron and other metals. Meanwhile, the community's strategy is to use water reservoirs as an alternative water source and introduce membrane technology through community empowerment activities.</p>Setiyo Yuli HandonoYusuf WibisonoWahyunanto Agung NugrohoChusnul Arif
