“…The agricultural sector in East Java is facing challenges that threaten its productivity and sustainability. These challenges include the narrowing of agricultural land due to population growth and the need to maintain rice productivity as a staple food [5]. Additionally, there is a need to predict food crop production to inform policy decisions and overcome production uncertainties [6].…”

“…Sustainable agriculture can also help minimize the adverse impacts of climate change on rural communities by providing alternative livelihood options, diversifying income sources, and improving food security [9]- [12]. However, more research and collaboration is needed to develop interdisciplinary and multidimensional agriculture that integrates all aspects of management and generates a wide variety of ecosystem services [5]- [8]. This research seeks to unravel the complex relationship between climate change, sustainable agricultural practices, and their joint influence on important dimensions of agricultural productivity and food security.…”
In rural East Java, Indonesia, this study examines the effects of climate change and sustainable farming practices on food security and agricultural output. A structural equation modeling approach was used to analyze the data from a survey of 250 farmers. The latent constructs' validity and reliability were validated by the measurement model evaluation, and each construct's uniqueness was guaranteed by discriminant validity analysis. Significant correlations were found by using the structural model: production was unexpectedly positively influenced by climate change, while food security was severely affected. Sustainable farming methods have a high positive correlation with production and food security. Demographic analysis shed light on the traits of the farmers in the sample. The evaluation of the model fit revealed that the relationships in the suggested model were satisfactorily represented. By providing useful insights for practitioners and policymakers pursuing sustainable agricultural development, this study advances knowledge of the complex dynamics of East Javan agriculture.

“…Otherwise, conventional tillage systems lead to significant disturbance of soil biota through soil disarrangement caused by ploughing, removal of litter layers from the land surface with consequent loss of soil organic matter and increased flux of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from soils [20], and changes in soil temperature and humidity [21]. As the maintenance of ground cover contributes to keeping the soil moist for longer, as well as protecting the soil surface against solar radiation and temperature fluctuation, CA practices can help crops thrive in challenging weather conditions during the growing season [22].…”
The development of sustainable application practices, which do not demand incorporation into the soil, is necessary to encourage slurry use in conservation agriculture (CA). Incorporation is the most common practice to reduce nitrogen losses from the applied slurry. However, in CA, soil disturbance must be avoided. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate strategies to reduce gaseous emissions from dairy slurry applied to stubble-covered soil without incorporation. We evaluated (1) effects on ammonia (NH3) emissions of pretreatment by acidification (ADS), irrigation (IR) and placement under the stubble (US); and (2) effects of ADS, IR, US and delayed fertilization (RDS T16) on greenhouse gases (GHG). The results of the evaluated strategies were compared to raw slurry (RDS) and ammonium sulphate (MS). Additionally, in experiment 2, the results were compared to ammonium sulphate (MB) and slurry injection (IN), both in bare soil. ADS, US and IR decreased NH3 emissions by 66%, 60% and 32.5%, respectively, with total N emissions NH3 emissions accounting for more than 79% of N losses in slurry-based treatments. Late application reduced N2O emissions by 48%. GHG emissions from ADS, US and IR were similar to those from MS, MB and IN. ADS, US and IR are the most suitable strategies for slurry application in CA.
