Perilaku Petani Milenial Provinsi Jawa Barat dalam Penerapan Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) pada Tanaman Hortikultura

Millennial farmers become superior and competitive human resources as determinants of the progress of agricultural development. Millennial farmers must be adaptive to digitalization technology and innovation and environmentally friendly cultivation techniques to face agricultural development, including climate change challenges. Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) behavior is the strategic effort of millennial farmers as an approach to dealing with the impacts of climate change on the agricultural sector, as well as efforts by the agricultural industry to reduce its impact on climate change through efficient management of crops, land and soil, and water. The management is based on three pillars of CSA: 1) Increasing agricultural productivity and income, 2) Improving adaptation and resilience to climate change, and 3) Reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This study aims to analyze CSA implementation behavior based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) by examining the direct and indirect effects of attitude variables, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and intentions. These variables are measured by integrating TPB with the CSA context. The research sample was 198 respondents of Millennial Farmer Ambassadors and Andalan Farmer Ambassadors in West Java Province, conducted in 2023. This research uses a quantitative approach with the Structural Equation Model-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method to analyze complex models with many variables—data collection techniques using questionnaire instruments that have been valid and reliable. The results showed that attitude, perceived behavioral control, and intention significantly influence behavior both directly and indirectly through intention (p-value < α 0.05). Meanwhile, subjective norms do not substantially affect behavior directly or indirectly through intention (p-value > α 0.05). So, it is necessary to develop interventions that strengthen the formation of positive intentions and the need for practical support for subjective norms related to CSA implementation behavior in millennial farmers.

The algorithm of effective communication ties between HR departments of industrial companies and the university

Human resources are one of the basic factors of production. At present, this factor is becoming scarce, and employers are facing much tougher competition for high quality human resources. That entails growing demands modern graduates make regarding their workplace. The authors have analyzed the dynamics of the unemployment rate and made a conclusion about the absence of labor-surplus regions in Russia. Under these conditions employers need to establish system interaction with the university. The authors point out that close communication should be initiated in the first years of training because the majority of the students start working during their studies at the educational institution. Two basic models of organization of the graduate employment have been studied. The first model is a model according to which the functions of organizing internship and employment are merged into a single structure; the second one is a model where the function of organizing internship is assigned to the training department/division while the employment function is the task of a separate structural division. On the basis of the analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each suggested model the authors have made a conclusion that the first model if the most effective as it contributes to the creation of a single point of entry and communication with the university. A problematic issue in graduate employment is the gap in understanding the requirements of the graduate to the employer and those of the employer to the future specialist. The authors put forward a hypothesis that one of the effective ways of solving the stated problem may be a special algorithm of work of the employees of the Career Centre with the representatives of HR departments, heads of educational and industrial practices. The main stages of the algorithms have been identified: conducting a design and analytical session; the introduction of dual training as an effective tool for building the interaction between Career Centres and HR departments; developing programs of interaction with employers depending on the category, formation of a pool of ambassadors of interested parties. Implementation of the algorithm presented in the article will contribute to the development of a single approach of interaction with employers and will ensure more effective employment of graduates.

Analysis of Indonesia’s Human Resource Development

Lack of human resource skills and low educational attainment are still problems related to human resources in Indonesia. According to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), which represents 258,000 members in more than 165 countries, one of the main challenges for Indonesian human resources today is competition. They believe that the demand for qualified and trained human resources throughout the world has increased, but productivity and quality of human resources are still very low at present. In Indonesia itself, data shows that the number of workers has a low level of education. The Central Statistics Agency noted that Indonesia’s working population will reach 139.85 million people in August 2023. Based on their level of education, the domestic working population is dominated by elementary school graduates and below, the number reached 51.49 million people or contributed 36.82% of the total working population in the country. Then there were 24.85 million junior high school graduate workers, or 17.77%. Meanwhile, the working population with high school graduates is 28.33 million people or accounts for 20.25%. Meanwhile, 17.33 million Indonesian workers are vocational school graduates. The proportion reached 12.40%. Meanwhile, the population of university graduates is recorded at 14.44 million people, or 10.32% of the total working population nationally. Lastly, the number of workers graduating from Diploma I/II/III is the lowest, namely only 3.41 million people or 2.44%. Education level can indicate the quality and productivity of the workforce. According to the scope of work, the majority of the working population in Indonesia works in the informal sector, namely 59.11%. Meanwhile, the other 40.89% work in the formal sector. Because most human resources have limited skills and a low level of education, it will be difficult to increase the productivity and quality of human resources to compete. In the current era of advanced technology and industrialization, human resources are needed who can develop, think more advanced and are able to adapt to the times. The quality of human resources is the key to the country’s future success. Superior and competitive human resources mean that Indonesia is treated equally and respected by other countries. The quality of Indonesia’s human resources is still weak, therefore training and development needs to be carried out to improve quality. This research aims to analyze human resource development in Indonesia. Data was analyzed qualitatively. The results of the research show that Indonesian human resources have developed through education and training. This can be improved in order to achieve increased quality of human resources.
