“…Rural entrepreneurship has become one of the main forces in the economic growth of a country, especially in developing countries. The entrepreneurial strategy is considered as a key factor to improve performance in local economic regional development (Rokhim et al , 2017). One strategy in encouraging rural entrepreneurship is to design an entrepreneurial program to develop thinking styles and skills in identifying business opportunities; analytic and problem-solving; creativity; expanding network relations; take a risk; starting a business and management among small business owner/managers (Alarape, 2007).…”

Purpose Village-owned enterprises, in this study called Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUMDes), are rural communities economic empowerment program developed by the Indonesian Government to encourage the growth of rural entrepreneurship by using the potential of locally owned resources. However, the implementation and effect of the BUMDes program are questionable. Thus, this study aims to investigate the role of BUMDes in encouraging rural entrepreneurship and strengthening rural economic development. In addition, this study also explores challenges in implementing the BUMDes program. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews using purposive sampling techniques to key people in management at five BUMDes in Garut Regency, West Java, Indonesia, which have successfully implemented the BUMDes program. Findings The findings of this study indicate that BUMDes are proven to encourage rural entrepreneurship with the dimensions of exploration and empowerment, capacity building and the support and involvement of all stakeholders. BUMDes were established in accordance with government policies based on the village discussion process as the culture of the Indonesian people by involving elements of the village government, associations and the community. However, the challenges in implementing BUMDes are still faced by managers including implementation and regulatory mismatches, lack of qualified human resources and lack of synergy between the village government and BUMDes. Research limitations/implications In this study, the development of a local economic empowerment program as a driver of rural entrepreneurship is carried out in the Indonesian context. In addition, based on the unique nature of case studies, making this study can only be implemented in cases that have similar characteristics. Therefore, in the context of other countries, it can be done by modifying the results obtained based on the conditions and potential of each region. Originality/value Although recognition of entrepreneurship is one of the main determinants of rural economic development, empirical research in this area is relatively rare. Thus, this study adds a new perspective on the BUMDes program as an effort to grow rural entrepreneurship.

Repeatability of baited remote underwater video station (BRUVS) results within and between seasons

et al. 2020

Baited remote underwater video stations (BRUVS) are increasingly being used to evaluate and monitor reef communities. Many BRUVS studies compare multiple sites sampled at single time points that may differ from the sampling time of another site. As BRUVS use grows in its application to provide data relevant to sustainable management, marine protected area success, and overall reef health, understanding repeatability of sampling results is vital. We examined the repeatability of BRUVS results for the elasmobranch community both within and between seasons and years, and explored environmental factors affecting abundances at two sites in Indonesia. On 956 BRUVS, 1139 elasmobranchs (69% rays, 31% sharks) were observed. We found consistent results in species composition and abundances within a season and across years. However, elasmobranch abundances were significantly higher in the wet season. The elasmobranch community was significantly different between the two sites sampled, one site being more coastal and easily accessed by fishermen. Our results demonstrate that while BRUVS are a reliable and repeatable method for surveying elasmobranchs, care must be taken in the timing of sampling between different regions to ensure that any differences observed are due to inherent differences amongst sampling areas as opposed to seasonal dissimilarities.

“…In addition, there are also capital problems, network marketing, lack of knowledge and skills in processing shallots into processed products that have higher economic value. These problems need to be addressed immediately in order to be able to realize an increase in farmers' welfare and increase the regional economy based on the potential of local resources [4] This research was inspired by several previous studies which have the same theme, namely the development of local economic potential, including research conducted by Rokhim, Wahyuni, Wulandari, Pinagara [5] with their research entitled "Analyzing Key Success Factors of Local Economic Development in Several Remote Areas in Indonesia". Rokhim, Wahyuni, Wulandari, Pinagara [5] underline that the regional development of the local economy to improve the quality of local life is highly dependent on the quality of the local community, the characteristics of production resources, stakeholder participation, entrepreneurial activities and local empowerment.…”

The local economic development approach is widely used by local governments because it is holistic so that it is considered capable of overcoming various problems. This research was conducted to analyze efforts to develop local economic potential based on local economic resource development, in the main commodity of Sumenep Regency, namely onion. This study uses a qualitative method. A series of structured observations, documentation and interviews were carried out at the head of the agriculture, food crops, horticulture, plantations and their staff, the head of the Rubaru Agricultural counseling center, academics, local media journalists, the Gapoktan chairman who together wanted to improve the quality of community life. The results of the study indicate that efforts have been made to develop local economic resources but have not been optimal. Local governments must still commit to remain consistent in increasing the potential of the local economy, especially by developing regulations related to marketing networks that protect farmers. In addition, it also requires an increase in competitiveness with the use of agricultural technology to produce processed shallots products that are currently being pioneered. Local governments also need to collaborate with relevant stakeholders.
