The 6th ICoSA (International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture) 2023 is annual international scientific meeting organized by Department of Agrotechnology, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY). This conference is dedicated to facilitate discussion among stakeholders (both domestic and/or international) related to the major issues found in agricultural sectors, particularly in the implementation of sustainable agriculture. This conference also mediates a beneficial exchange of information to support the improvement and the development of agriculture. For its fifth implementation, the 6th ICoSA 2023 brought the theme of "Smart Farming Toward Society 5.0 For SDGs. This conference was conducted in the form of Hybrid meeting on August 9-10 2023. We recorded high enthusiasm from the participants coming from different areas and institutions across Indonesia that applied to join in this conference. This excitement was reflected by 104 papers received. Regarding its implementation, this conference provided two main activities, including plenary talks and parallel discussion regarding various fields of studies related to agriculture.After performing highly selective scientific review on the submitted paper, we are delighted to present this proceeding as a paper compilation representing various field of studies, such as crop production system, crop protection, management of land use, and postharvest management. We would like to express our gratitude to the organizing committees and supporting parties for their hard work and precious support, either during the conference and the post- conference publication, thus leading to a success of 6th ICoSA. We sincerely hope that this conference can be considered as a scientific forum providing high quality discussion among researchers and other related stakeholders in agricultural sectors.
