Abstract: Small-scale coffee farming in Indonesia faces low productivity due to poor farming practices and low-quality planting materials. It highlights the need for improved coffee varieties that meet farmers’ preferences. Given the vulnerability of coffee farming to climate change, participatory breeding programs that involve collaboration between researchers and farmers to develop a climate-adapted variety are essential. This study used survey data from Gayo Highland, Aceh, Indonesia, to investigate farmers’ perception of the importance of climate-related attributes in a coffee variety, including those developed through a participatory breeding program, and the determinant factors. The result shows that farmers rated climate-related attributes as the least important (average score 0.36) compared to others, such as coffee productivity (1.57) and quality (1.22), resistance to pests and diseases (0.96), and input-use efficiency (0.57). This finding suggests a lack of awareness among farmers about the importance of climate issues in coffee farming. The estimation results also indicate that coffee extension activities have a negative association with farmers’ perceptions of the importance of climate attributes. This study recommends inclusive and targeted climate c aigns to increase farmers’ concern, awareness, and knowledge about the threats of climate change to coffee farming through strengthening advisory services.

Abstract: Chilli is one of important vegetables in Indonesia, which is produced all year long despite the seasonal variation. While seasonality in consumer demand and producer supply of agricultural commodities is well understood, relatively little is known regarding seasonal variation in adoption of farm technologies, such as hybrid seeds, whose effectiveness may vary across seasons. Hybrid seed adoption studies in developing countries tend to suffer from a problem of temporal aggregation where data is either (1) measured in a snapshot of time, in which case seasonal variation cannot be analysed, or (2) aggregated over a year or multiple years, where cyclical seasonal variation is washed out. This study uncovers seasonal dynamics in hybrid seed demand by analysing the case of chilli in hybrid seed use by farmers will be critical for improving seed-system. Factor demand functions were estimated using a unique dataset of 597 chilli producers. The study tested for structural change in demand for hybrid seeds going from dry season to wet season and identify season-specific constraints to hybrid seed use. Results showed that hybrid seed adoption is likely associated with water supply, especially during dry seasons. The adoption of hybrid seed could be lower in irrigated land during the rainy season.

Abstract: Palm oil commodity in Indonesia is the cash crop for smallholder farmers especially in the dry land area. This smallholder has contributed to produce Crude Palm Oil (CPO) about more than 40 percent in the supply chain. This study is aimed to identify downstream and upstream in the line of CPO palm oil. Secondly, is to know the role of the actors in the CPO supply chain and its traceability. This study employed the traceability method of networking of CPO supply chain in Southeast Sulawesi. Indonesia. Two research sites were conducted as the implementation of survey, observation, interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The respondents have chosen from the downstream to upstream of the CPO supply chain. Independent farmers, middlemen, delivery order, and Fruit Fresh Bunches (FFB) mills to produce CPO have been interviewed as the key informant of this research. Traceability study shows that the main source of FFB came from the core of PT. Damai Jaya Lestari both in the research site, plasma, and independent farmer. In North Konawe, the downstream line that farmers sell the FFB to the middlemen then they bring to the agency who has the delivery order from the CPO mills. Meanwhile, in Kolaka District, Independent farmers sold the FFB to the agency who has the contract with the PT. Damai Jaya Lestari in Plasma Village, Poliggona Sub District. In terms of the green economy, waste such empty bunches were limited access for farmers who wanted to proceed with the waste for organic fertilizer and feeding cows. The role and the traceability study show that independent farmers have no access to utilize the waste of empty bunches, no protection from the Damai Jaya Lestari as the CPO mills, and have no institutional farmers as the farmers group.
