Introduction: A sustainable livelihood program for former illegal loggers implemented by agriculture cultivation in rehabilitation zones or “Tetelan” land. Then, the agroforestry system should be applied to restore the function of forests and generate economic value. The research aims to examine the perceptions of former illegal loggers and the factors that influence the application of agroforestry on “tetelan” land. Methods: The research was conducted in Sanenrejo Village and Andongrejo Village, Tempurejo District, Jember Regency, East Java as buffer villages of the Meru Betiri National Park (MBNP). The research data used has cross-sectional characteristics. The data were measured using the Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive quantitative methods, followed by the Chi-square method to determine the effect of the relationship between variables. Results: Perception of former illegal loggers of agroforestry in “tetelan” land is in a good category. This means that efforts to implement an agroforestry system in "Tetelan" land to restore forest function have a high chance of success. At the same time, the factors that significantly influence the application of agroforestry are education and income. Conclusion: Individual approach efforts should target ex-illegal logger farmers with an elementary school education and low income (between IDR 300,000–IDR 6,200,000).

Introduction: Organic farming has emerged as a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to food production. However, the adoption of organic farming practices in Indonesia remains slow. Progressive farmers have the potential to act as opinion leaders, accelerating the diffusion of innovations in organic rice farming. This study investigates the role of progressive farmers as opinion leaders in facilitating innovation diffusion for the development of organic paddy fields. Methods: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, non-participant observations, and document analysis involving 17 participants, including progressive farmers, conventional farmers, and agricultural extension agents engaged in organic rice farming development. Data were analyzed descriptively using the framework of social learning theory. Results: Findings indicate that opinion leaders play a pivotal role as initiators, pioneers, information disseminators, and role models in promoting organic rice farming innovations. Their actions and statements regarding innovations strongly influence farmers' decision-making processes. Conclusion: The study concludes that progressive farmers, as opinion leaders, effectively act as change agents and mentors by introducing and fostering the adoption of organic farming practices. The shared socio-cultural background between opinion leaders and their communities facilitates intensive interpersonal communication, ensuring that messages are relevant, credible, memorable, and trustworthy, thereby accelerating innovation diffusion. Nevertheless, the study also highlights certain limitations faced by progressive farmers. Strengthening their communication skills and fostering collaborations with agricultural institutions, such as extension agents and organic farming communities, are essential to further expedite the diffusion of organic farming innovations.

Introduction: Lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L.) is a popular vegetable plant in Indonesia. This is because the demand for lettuce continues to increase and lettuce plants can be planted with a hydroponic system that is currently in great demand by the community, especially generation Z (Gen Z). In meeting the demand for lettuce, lettuce is planted hydroponically. Planting in a hydroponic system often does not pay attention to the intensity of light that can be received by plants due to the shade from the GreenHouse or UV plastic used, so that plants cannot grow optimally. The purpose of this study was to find the most suitable lettuce varieties planted hydroponically at various irradiation times as well as the most appropriate long light for lettuce plant growth and to analyze the relationship between characters with the yield for indirect selection. Methods: The study was conducted at the GreenHouse Arsy Hydroponic using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) factorial pattern. 3 lettuce varieties and 4 long light treatments were the treatments in this study. The relationship between characters was analyzed using correlation analysis. Results: The results of the study showed that the Cos and Batavia varieties can generally be used for planting with a light duration of more than 12 hours compared to the Oakleaf variety. Light duration of less than 12 hours is not recommended because it will cause the plant height to be higher, especially for the Oakleaf variety. In the indirect selection process to obtain high-yielding varieties in the hydroponic system by providing light duration and varieties can be selected from the characteristics of the number of leaves, leaf width and root length which have a significant positive correlation. Conclusion: The results of the study showed that selecting the appropriate variety can increase optimal crop yields. Information on the relationship between plant characteristics is very important to increase the effectiveness of selection.

Introduction: This study aims to analyze the financial feasibility and identify the influence of total production, planting area, and farmer identity (age, education level, farming experience, number of family dependents) on the income of lowland rice farmers in Selubuk Village, Air Napal District, North Bengkulu Regency. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a survey method on 29 farmer respondents selected from 97 farmer families using the Slovin formula. Primary data were collected through questionnaires and interviews, while secondary data were obtained from related agencies. Data analysis included cost-revenue analysis (R/C ratio) and multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The results showed that lowland rice farming in Selubuk Village was financially feasible with an R/C ratio value of 3.39. The regression analysis results indicated that simultaneously, total production, planting area, age, farming experience, education level, and number of family dependents had a significant effect on farmer income (Sig. F = 0.000). Partially, the variables of total production, planting area, farming experience, and education level had a positive and significant effect on farmer income (p < 0.05). However, a multicollinearity problem was detected between the total production and planting area variables, which needs attention in the interpretation of their individual coefficients. The variables of age and number of family dependents did not have a significant effect on farmer income (p > 0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, lowland rice farming in Selubuk Village is profitable, and income improvement can be focused on production factors, experience, and increasing farmer education capacity, considering the close relationship between production and land area.

Introduction: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is one of the horticultural plants of the fruit type which is included in the gourd tribe or Cucurbitaceae family. The problem of melon cultivation in the field is that it requires intensive maintenance, is susceptible to pests and diseases, uses less efficient nutrients, is sensitive to weeds, and has less controlled growth. The above problems can be overcome by hydroponic techniques. In hydroponic techniques, environmental resources are easier to control and the results obtained are more satisfying compared to conventional cultivation, especially in open fields. Amino acids are proteins that have been broken down through the metabolic process into small molecules. In addition to humans, plants also need amino acids to increase overall yields and quality. Methods: This study aims to determine the effect of providing the best Amino Plant concentration for the growth and production of melon plants. This study was conducted in June - October 2022 at the Smart Green House (SGH) of Jember State Polytechnic. The experimental design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of one factor, namely the concentration of Amino Acid with 3 levels, namely P1 (4 mg/L), P2 (8 mg/L), and P3 (12 mg/L). Results: The results of the study showed that the administration of Amino Acids at a dose of 2 g/L gave results that were not significantly different (ns) in all parameters and showed that there was no effective concentration for melon growth and production in all parameters.Conclusion: Based on the results of this research, it is recommended to carry out further research by applying Amino Plant according to the guidelines on the packaging. It is necessary to calibrate the drip irrigation or fertigation system so that the nutrient flow is uniform.

Introduction: Oil palm nurseries are crucial to oil palm farming success. Thus, precise management measures from the start, such as giving nutrients and using optimal planting material, are essential. Vermicompost and guano were tested as organic fertilizers in oil palm fields to replace chemical fertilizers. This study aims to evaluate the effect of guano and vermicompost as organic fertilizers on the growth of oil palm seedlings during the pre-nursery stage. Methods: Besides the control group, the experimental treatments included 10% vermicompost, 20% vermicompost, 10% guano, and 20% guano, each replicated five times in a completely randomized design. Results: The introduction of 10% guano resulted in a significant enhancement across key growth metrics Addition of 10% guano had 20.0% more leaves, 22.5% more stem diameter, and 62.1% more shoot dry weight than the control group. This study shows that guano, which includes 19% P2O5, can boost oil palm seedling growth. The inceptisols was already rich in nutrients, thus vermicompost had no effect on it throughout the three-month testing. Since the soil conditions were good, vermicompost did not change them during the three-month trial. The correlation matrix showed a strong and constant link between seedling shoot and root fresh and dry weights. The relationship between organic fertilizers and oil palm nursery growth highlights the importance of a well-rounded plant development profile. This highlights the complex relationship between organic fertilizers and oil palm growth. Conclusion: Guano at 10% has been shown to improve oil palm seedling growth in the nursery phase, outperforming vermicompost.
