Agroforestry activities in Forest Areas with Special Purpose (FASP) have been implemented since 2000 in Parungpanjang, West Java, which was subsequently reinforced by the Decree of the Minister of Environment and Forestry concerning the Recognition and Protection of Forest Partnerships (Kulin KK) for the Harapan Sejahtera and Guna Bakti Forest Farmer Groups in 2019. This study investigates the contribution of agroforestry systems to farmer income using a household survey in the Parungpanjang Research Forest. The study aims to analyze: 1) the contribution of agroforestry to farmer income from a household structured income analysis; 2) factors of agroforestry that influence total farmer household income using multiple regression analysis. The results show that agroforestry systems contributed 15.8% to farmer household income. The highest agroforestry productivity occurs in the age group of 41-45 years with an average of managed land area of 0.65 hectares and average annual income of IDR 16,780,000 (USD 1,198.6)/farmer/year. The statistical model showed that agroforestry income does not have a significant influence on total farmer household income due to differences in the types of commercial crops, motivation, and skill, as well as age related to physical abilities. There are only two agroforestry factors, namely age and land area, that have a significant influence on total farmer income, whereby the direction of the age variable has a negative influence.
Good knowledge on economic value of a particular tourist destination is primarily fundamental for effective management policy formulation. In 2015, Aik Nyet Nature Tourism, which covers an area of approximately 9.08 hectare, is one of tourist destinations planned to receive donation from Provincial Government of West Nusa Tenggara (Pemprov NTB) for its improvement and development of facilities, infrastructures as well as capacity building for people around the tourism location. Using travel cost method, this study estimates consumers' surplus and economic benefits of recreational value in Aik Nyet before the realization of donation from Pemprov NTB. Consumers' surplus per individual per visit is estimated using data collected from survey. Data were collected by means of self-administered, paper-based questionnaire completed on-site during weekend and national holiday of August to October 2015. Using poisson regression, the travel costs (transportation cost, consumption cost, and location paid entrance fee) were considered in the study to explain the frequency of individual's visit to the tourist location. Results of the study show that that consumer surplus obtained by visitors is Rp2,557.158 per visit per individual and the economic recreational value before the realization of the government's financial support is approximately Rp9,333,627.70 per year.
Purposes This study aims to investigate what consumer’s preference, as group members, to participate in boycott movement in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach A mix method, qualitative (the first phase) and quantitative (the second phase), approach is used. The first phase used secondary data from media reporting interconnected themes on boycott, and the result of which was analyzed using content analysis method. Based on the results of the first phase, the authors continue with the second phase. The second phase used primary data from survey. The data were analyzed using analytical hierarchy process method. Findings The results showed that the primary target of boycott is the firm. The primary objective of boycott is the changing in firms’ behavior (instrumental), and the primary root cause of boycott is economy. Originality Value The study contributes to improve the authors’ knowledge about consumers’ preference, as group members, in their attempt to get involved in boycott movement. From the perspective of reference group theory, the study shows that consumers always compare what they do to what their groups do. Consumers also tend to be willingly persuaded if an opinion has been adopted by a group of preferred people or when they are the members. From the perspective of expectancy-value theory, the decision to present particular behaviors is the results of rational process directed to a particular objective. Behavior chosen is considered, consequences and results of an action are evaluated, and the decision is made whether or not to take any action.
In Indonesia, Law No. 40/2007 Using the cases of CSR during the earthquake in Jogjakarta, which was before the enactment of the Law, the objective of this paper is to investigate whether CSR leads to a decrease in competitiveness. In this paper, the objective is achieved by examining the models of beliefs, attitudes, and purchase intentions of consumers toward a company implementing CSR.On May 27, 2006, at approximately 05:59 a.m., an earthquake of 5.6 Richter scale damaged Yogyakarta and the surrounding areas. The results of the preliminary assessment on the damages and losses of an early morning earthquake in the provinces of DIY and Central Java revealed that the earthquake killed more than 5,716 people, injured 37,927 people, destroyed 240,396 houses, as well as resulted in disruption of local economic activities.
The maturity of the R&D institutions through Public Service Agency (BLU) is an effort to increase the relevance in responding stakeholder needs. BLU is present as a solution for R&D institutions in providing goods and/or services that are sold based on the principles of efficiency and productivity. However, the strategic plan for the BLU formation is prepared by submitting a substantive, a technical and an administrative requirement. Therefore, this research facilitates the submission of these requirements through the Pentahelix Collaboration Model, which is the optimization of 5 (five) roles: business, government/management, community, researchers and media by implementing the roadmap at the Forest Tree Seed Technology Research and Development Center. The case study steps to improve all the roles conditions was by adapting Kurt Lewin's action research into 4 (four) stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The role of the business unit is emphasized on market differentiation and business strategy by considering an opportunity to increase revenue realization/financial forecasting ratio. The role of management is emphasized on budget flexibility and remuneration by considering cost accounting and its unit cost calculations. The role of the community is emphasized on the conducive policies by accommodating stakeholders’ need. The role of the researcher is emphasized on the innovation of forest seed’s products/services by improving service quality and managing it with corporate style principles. The role of the media is emphasized on the professionalism of human resources by considering the community satisfaction index.
The theory of attribution has been widely used in marketing studies. However, this theory contains some limitations as well. Using the context of protests of tempe producers, this study aims at minimizing the limitations by integrating the attribution theory with collective action theories, prosocial theories, and expectancy-value theories in explaining and predicting the behavior of product consumers and individuals/groups that joined the protests. To answer the research objectives, this study proposed a model integrating the attribution of perceived motives of tempe producers joining the, empathy towards tempe producers, attitude towards tempe producers, and subsequent purchasing intention. The results indicate that the proposed model is supported by the data. This implies that the integration of the attribution theory with collective action theories, prosocial theories, and expectancy-value theories can minimize the limitations with regard to the criticism in neglecting motivation in attribution processes and confounding between attribution processes and attributional processes.
Currently, there are limited studies on the application of the social cognitive theory in social psychology, particularly in explaining and predicting panic-buying behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. This study is primarily aimed at acknowledging the role of the social cognitive theory’s development in explaining and predicting the panic-buying behavior of Indonesian citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic. The development of the theory is attained by combining emotions and subjective norms to predict the panic-buying behavior intention in Indonesia. Using a purposive sampling technique, the sample size consists of 350 respondents from various areas, such as Jakarta, Tangerang, and Banten. An online survey was performed as the data collection method. Social desirabilit response (SDR) test was also conducted by this study to guarantee the naturality of the replies from the respondents. Data were then analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with a two-stage approach. The result demonstrated that emotions have the highest impact on the panic-buying behavioral intention. Further, subjective norms, self-efficacy, and social outcome expectancies have the second, third, and fourth highest impacts on panic-buying behavior, respectively. In general, the social cognitive theory model developed in this study can understand, explain, and predict panic-buying behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak in Indonesia. Overall, the results of this study may serve as basic information for practitioners and business persons by providing insights regarding the factors that form consumers’ intentions and behavior during the pandemic, relating to their buying decisions.
