Quality Seed Production Process According to Standards
type: item
description: Quality seed is a fundamental input in agricultural production, directly influencing crop yield, resilience, and uniformity across farming systems. However, many seed production systems in developing regions still rely on informal practices that do not fully comply with established seed quality standards, resulting in low genetic purity, high contamination, and variable germination performance. This study develops a conceptual framework for the Quality Seed Production Process According to Standards by synthesizing principles from international seed certification schemes, national regulations, and best practices in field and post harvest management. The framework integrates four key layers genetic and varietal integrity, field production and isolation, post harvest handling and quality testing, and certification and traceability to illustrate how seed producers can systematically meet physical, physiological, and genetic quality requirements. The findings highlight that adherence to seed production standards can increase productivity, reduce the risk of seed-borne diseases, and improve farmers’ confidence in formal seed systems, while policy implications include strengthening certification institutions, promoting producer training, and developing digital traceability tools for seed lot monitoring.

E-Commerce Logistics Integration for Sustainable Agricultural Value Chains Toward a Digital Green Supply System
type: item
description: The rapid expansion of e-commerce logistics has transformed agricultural value chains, creating new opportunities for efficiency, traceability, and sustainability. However, the integration of logistics systems with sustainable agriculture remains limited in both practice and policy. This study develops a conceptual framework called the Digital Green Supply System (DGSS) by extending the model proposed by Zhou et al. (2024) on optimal logistics strategies for green agricultural e-commerce. Using a theory-extension approach based on secondary quantitative findings and system-level interpretation, the research explores how digital logistics can serve as a catalyst for sustainable agricultural transformation. The analysis reinterprets key parameters game-theoretic model logistics service cost coefficient (k), consumer sensitivity to logistics quality (γ), and platform commission rate (ρ) to explain how cost–service trade-offs influence environmental and economic outcomes. The proposed DGSS framework comprises four interconnected layers: digital integration, green logistics, value chain optimization, and sustainability feedback. Together, these components form an adaptive ecosystem that balances profitability, carbon efficiency, and social inclusivity through data-driven coordination and real-time feedback loops. The findings highlight that e-commerce logistics integration can reduce post-harvest losses, lower emissions, and enhance market accessibility for rural producers. Policy implications include promoting green logistics subsidies, digital infrastructure investment, and open data systems to strengthen environmental accountability. Overall, the DGSS framework positions e-commerce logistics as both a strategic enabler of sustainable agriculture and a foundation for low-carbon, resilient, and inclusive agri-food systems.

Integrating Food Technology and Chemistry for Sustainable Fortification and Functional Food Development
type: item
description: The growing demand for sustainable, nutritious, and health-promoting food has accelerated the integration of food chemistry and food technology in fortification and functional food development. This study presents a conceptual synthesis that explores how chemical mechanisms and technological processes can be harmonized to enhance nutrient bioavailability, product stability, and environmental sustainability. Relying on secondary data from peer-reviewed studies published between 2015 and 2025, the research identifies key intersections between molecular food chemistry, process optimization, and green food engineering. The analysis reveals that food chemistry provides the molecular foundation for understanding reactions such as oxidation, Maillard transformation, and enzymatic modification, which determine nutrient retention and sensory quality. Food technology operationalizes these reactions through controlled processing techniques such as microencapsulation, fermentation, and extrusion that preserve bioactive compounds and enable targeted nutrient delivery. Furthermore, the adoption of green chemistry principles, including the use of natural antioxidants, solvent replacement, and low-energy processing, supports the environmental dimension of sustainable production. The resulting conceptual framework, termed the Chemistry Technology Sustainability Nexus, demonstrates that integrating molecular precision with technological innovation can yield fortified and functional foods that are both nutritionally effective and ecologically responsible. This study contributes to the theoretical understanding of sustainable food design, emphasizing that future food systems must align chemical integrity, technological efficiency, and environmental stewardship to achieve long-term global food security.

Agribusiness Business Model Based on the Blue Economy: Synergy Between Agricultural Production and Maritime Logistics
type: item
description: Agribusiness plays a pivotal role in advancing economic growth, food security, and rural welfare, especially in archipelagic nations such as Indonesia where agriculture and maritime activities are geographically intertwined. Yet, fragmented supply chains, limited accessibility, and underdeveloped logistics infrastructure hinder the efficiency and competitiveness of agricultural systems. This study proposes a conceptual business model that integrates agribusiness with maritime logistics under the principles of the Blue Economy. Using a qualitative, desk-based analytical approach, it synthesizes academic literature, policy documents, and development reports to construct a framework aligning agricultural production with ocean-based distribution systems. The model is structured through an adapted Business Model Canvas emphasizing five interlinked components: (1) a value proposition centered on maritime connectivity and sustainability; (2) key integration activities between agricultural processing and sea transport coordination; (3) infrastructure and channel reconfiguration around coastal agrologistics hubs; (4) multi-actor partnerships among farmers, port authorities, and logistics providers; and (5) financial and environmental sustainability mechanisms. The findings highlight that maritime logistics can transform geographic fragmentation into an operational advantage by enabling cost-efficient, low-carbon, and inclusive supply chains. The proposed framework offers a strategic pathway for building resilient agribusiness ecosystems in island nations, supporting food security, regional equity, and sustainable development. While conceptual, the model lays groundwork for future empirical validation and pilot implementation to enhance coordination between agriculture and maritime sectors within Blue Economy-driven growth strategies.

Agro-Communicative Networks Rural Sociology Perspectives on Knowledge Sharing and Innovation Diffusion in Sustainable Agriculture
type: item
description: Sustainable agricultural transformation depends not only on technology but also on communication, trust, and collective participation. This study develops a conceptual framework of Agro-Communicative Networks by integrating insights from rural sociology and development communication. Drawing upon secondary data from the article “Communication and Social Capital in Community-Supported Agriculture” (JAFSCD, 2022) and supporting literature from 2015–2025, the study explores how communication processes contribute to the formation of social capital and the diffusion of innovation in rural agricultural systems. The analysis reveals that communication builds social capital through three interrelated mechanisms: bonding (trust and solidarity within groups), bridging (horizontal collaboration among communities), and linking (vertical connections with institutions). These communicative relationships generate collective learning and shared decision-making, which accelerate innovation diffusion and strengthen the sustainability of agricultural practices. The proposed Agro-Communicative Network Framework conceptualizes this dynamic as a continuous cycle in which dialogue fosters trust, trust builds social capital, and social capital enhances the quality and depth of future communication. The findings suggest that agricultural innovation should be understood as a socially negotiated process rather than a unidirectional transfer of knowledge. Strengthening participatory communication through local media, farmer cooperatives, and digital platforms can enhance community resilience, inclusivity, and long-term sustainability. The study concludes that communication is not only a medium of coordination but also a strategic driver of social innovation in the rural agribusiness ecosystem.

From Field to Functional Food Integrating Microbial Innovation and Agroindustry Development for Sustainable Agriculture
type: item
description: Sustainable agricultural development increasingly depends on innovations that bridge biological productivity at the farm level and value creation within agroindustry. This study proposes an integrated framework connecting microbial bioinnovation in crop production with functional food development, forming a “Field-to-Functional-Food” model. The research employs a conceptual synthesis based on two empirical datasets from experimental studies on microbial consortia (Fm48 and R15) applied to rice cultivation and on instant ginger drink formulations as a value-added agroindustrial product. The microbial consortium demonstrated significant improvements in rice yield components productive tillers, panicle length, and 1000-grain weight through enhanced nutrient uptake and reduced chemical input dependency. Meanwhile, the functional food study showed that the addition of 15% milk powder increased protein content and antioxidant activity in instant ginger products, improving both nutritional value and consumer acceptance. By integrating these findings, the proposed framework illustrates how upstream microbial innovation can serve as the biological foundation for downstream agroindustrial transformation. This integration promotes a circular and sustainable agrocomplex system characterized by resource efficiency, environmental responsibility, and inclusive economic participation. The conceptual model aligns with the principles of the Blue–Green Economy, emphasizing synergy between biotechnology, processing innovation, and sustainable food systems. The study concludes that linking microbial-based production and functional food processing can enhance agricultural competitiveness, strengthen rural industries, and advance the transition toward an innovative-driven and nutritionally oriented agro-economy

type: item
description: This study critically examines the transformative potential of circular economy principles within Indonesia's agrocomplex sector, an imperative shift given the agricultural sector's 13% contribution to the national GDP and employment of 29% of the workforce. Through a mixed-method approach incorporating in-depth interviews with 35 key stakeholders across five major Indonesian regions, focus group discussions, and system dynamics modeling, the research identifies significant opportunities for resource optimization where 63.7% of agricultural biomass currently remains unutilized or burned. The study uncovers five promising circular business models: Industrial-Agricultural Symbiosis, Agricultural Resource Sharing Platforms, Distributed Biorefinery, Product-as-a-Service Agriculture, and Regenerative Supply Chains, with Industrial-Agricultural Symbiosis demonstrating the highest benefit-cost ratio of 3.7 and potential carbon emission reductions of 42%. Key implementation enablers include supportive policies, access to green financing, technological capacity, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and capacity development, while primary barriers encompass value chain fragmentation, infrastructure limitations, inadequate economic incentives, resistance to change, and capacity constraints. A strategic three-phase roadmap (2025-2035) is proposed to accelerate the transition toward a circular agrocomplex in Indonesia, requiring an estimated investment of Rp156.3 trillion over a decade with potential to create 4.4 million new jobs. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating traditional agricultural wisdom with modern technology and establishing collaborative governance frameworks to ensure an equitable distribution of benefits throughout the agricultural value chain, ultimately redefining the relationship between production, consumption, and regeneration in Indonesia's food system.

Human Resource Development Strategy in Realizing Integrated and Globally Competitive Agrocomplexes
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze and formulate a strategy for developing human resources (HR) in realizing an integrated agrocomplex that is globally competitive. Using a mixed methods approach that integrates quantitative and qualitative methods, the study was conducted on 350 respondents representing various actors in the agrocomplex value chain in five agricultural center provinces in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate a gap in HR competency at various agrocomplex nodes, especially in the use of digital technology, post-harvest management, understanding international standards, and global marketing. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis confirmed the significant influence of individual characteristics (β = 0.437), institutional capacity (β = 0.385), access to technology and information (β = 0.324), and government policy support (β = 0.276) on HR competency, which in turn had a strong influence on agrocomplex competitiveness (β = 0.612). Qualitative findings revealed four main themes: generation gaps in agricultural management, limitations of the agricultural innovation support ecosystem, fragmentation of agricultural HR development programs, and the digital divide. Based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), five priority strategies for human resource development were formulated, namely: (1) revitalization of agricultural vocational education and training; (2) strengthening the agricultural extension system based on digital technology; (3) development of penta-helix partnerships; (4) increasing the institutional capacity of farmers; and (5) developing incentives for young farmer cadres. This study concludes that human resource development is a fundamental prerequisite in realizing a globally competitive integrated agrocomplex, which requires a holistic approach and integration of interventions at the individual, institutional, and ecosystem levels. Policy recommendations are directed at the orchestration of cross-sectoral programs and strengthening s…

Integration of Farming-Livestock Systems in Sustainable Agrocomplex Development in Indonesia
type: item
description: Integrated farming-livestock systems offer a sustainable approach to agrocomplex development in Indonesia. This study analyzes the application of integrated systems in three different agroecosystems: wetlands in Karawang, drylands in Gunung Kidul, and plantations in Central Lampung. Research methods include direct observation, field measurements, and data analysis using Systems Dynamics Modeling, Data Envelopment Analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling. The results show three main typologies of integration: rice-cattle, food crops-horticulture-goats, and oil palm-livestock systems. Integrated systems increase nitrogen use efficiency by 37-52%, reduce chemical fertilizer needs by 45%, and increase farmer income by 43.7 % compared to conventional practices. Environmentally, these systems increase soil organic matter content, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2.4-3.7 tons CO₂-eq/ha/year, and increase biodiversity. Implementation challenges include institutional fragmentation, limited post-harvest technology, and lack of standardization of organic fertilizer quality. Critical success factors include institutional support, farmers’ technical capacity, and the suitability of technology to the local context. This research contributes to the development of a sustainable agrocomplex model that is adaptive to the diverse conditions of Indonesia’s agroecosystems, with important implications for food security and climate change mitigation policies.

The Impact of Climate Change on the Sustainability of Tiger Prawn Cultivation in Tropical Waters
type: item
description: Global climate change has become a serious threat to the aquaculture sector, including tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon) cultivation in tropical waters. This research aims to analyze the impact of climate change on the sustainability of tiger prawn cultivation in Indonesia. The method used is a literature study and secondary data analysis from various trusted sources. The research results show that climate change has a significant impact on aquatic environmental parameters, such as increasing water temperature, changes in salinity, and ocean acidification. This condition affects the physiology, growth, and survival rate of black tiger prawns. Increasing water temperature causes stress in shrimp, reduces growth rate, and increases disease susceptibility. Changes in salinity due to erratic rainfall and rising sea levels disrupt the shrimp's osmotic balance. Ocean acidification hurts the calcification process of shrimp shells.

Use of organic fertilizers and microbial phosphate solubilizers to improve maize plant quality
type: item
description: Maize plants are one of Indonesia's most important food crops, which require nutrients containing sufficient phosphorus (P) for growth. However, soil P availability could be higher due to physical, chemical and biological factors. Therefore, this study investigates the effect of organic fertilizers and phosphate solubilizing agents (MPF) on maize plant quality. This study used a randomized group design with four treatments: no organic fertilizer and MPF (comparison), organic fertilizer only, MPF only and organic fertilizer and MPF. The results showed that treatment with organic fertilizers and MPF positively affected maize plant quality, such as plant height, stalk diameter, number of leaves, leaf area, shoot wet and dry weight, root wet and dry weight, and P. content in plants. This indicates that applying organic fertilizers and MPF can increase soil P availability and P uptake by maize plants. Thus, using organic fertilizers and MPF can be an environmentally friendly and economical alternative to improve the quality of corn plants.
