“…The reason farmers practice organic cultivation, besides having a high selling value, also has a good impact on health. 100% of farmers in the area consume organic rice themselves, in contrast to the case in Thailand, where 63% of organic farmers market more through marketing (Methamontri et al, 2022). The reason farmers use an organic system is that 100% of farmers want to produce rice products that have a high price and want to maintain health by consuming organic rice that incomes from their own.…”

The current challenges of industrial agriculture focus on environmental safety. Water quality is an indicator of environmental sustainability. The cultivation system has an impact on water quality. The aim of this study is to assess the water quality of agricultural systems. Anthropogenically, agricultural activities have an impact on environmental aspects. Identification of agricultural systems is clustered into organic and non-organic agriculture. The agricultural system in Indonesia is regulated based on SNI 6729;2016. Water sampling was carried out at three points, including upstream, middle (irrigation), and downstream (river). Water sampling at each point was repeated three times. Assessment of the physical quality of water using the Combo Quality Meter. Water samples for chemical and biological analysis at the Environmental Laboratory, Perum. Jasa Tirta 1. Determination of water quality standards refers to Government Regulation No. 82 of 2001. In the upstream section, pollution can be seen in the biological oxygen demand (BOD) indicator, with an average of 15.03 mg L-1 for organic and conventional systems. The phosphate indicator averaged 1.96 mg L-1. In the middle section (irrigation), the pollution indicators for BOD, phosphate, and total Coliform parameters were 6.76 mg L-1 for the organic system, 7.37 mg L-1 for the non-organic system, and 1,290 CFU mL-1. In the downstream (river), pollution indicators consist of total suspended solids (TSS), BOD, chemical oxygen demand (COD), and total Coliform. Anthropogenic identification for clustering agricultural systems at the research location uses stratified disproportional sampling. The results of this research provide recommendations for water quality management for sustainable agricultural environmental management.

In general, small-scale farmers in rural areas often experience obstacles in implementing technological innovations offered by agricultural extension workers. Obstacles can come from within the individual breeder himself. The theory of small farmers and the theory of collective action is expected to solve the obstacles to implementing these technological innovations. This study aims to analyze and find solutions to the obstacles to implementing technological innovation at the individual level of small farmers in rural areas. Researchers took case study research with a research and development (RD) method approach to find the construction of a joint venture model. Qualitative methods are used in Focus Group Discussion (FGD) activities. At the same time, the quantitative descriptive research method is to evaluate the results of implementing the joint venture model. The population and the evaluation research sample were members of the Ampelsari Makmur Jaya farmer group in Pasuruan Regency and the La Tulip Farmer/Women Group in Lamongan Regency. The number of respondents for the perception evaluation was 68, determined as a total sample. Data was collected through participation techniques, in-depth interviews, FGDs and surveys. The evaluation perception was analyzed using descriptive analysis and Score T. The evaluation of respondents’ perceptions resulted in the farmers accepting the establishment of community-based business units (complete feed and pastured chicken business). The solution is also considered effective in solving the obstacles to applying technological innovation by rural and small-scale farmers in Indonesia.

“…First off, the vast bulk of prior research has mostly concentrated on the macro-level effects of credit and lending on agricultural productivity (Rehman, Chandio, Hussain, & Jingdong, 2019). While these studies have produced insightful information about the benefits of loan availability, they have only offered a scant amount of information about the particular challenges that farmers encounter in actually obtaining credit (Methamontri, Tsusaka, Zulfiqar, Yukongdi, & Datta, 2022). Second, the existing study frequently provides a general picture of the topic, paying less attention to the experiences of specific farmers on a micro level and the viewpoints of financial institutions actively engaged in agricultural financing (Andati et al, 2022).…”

Pakistan's agriculture industry, distinguished by its variety of animals and crops, has historically been the foundation of the country's economy. It contributes significantly to GDP, employs a considerable section of the people, and assures food security for the country. Despite its vast potential, the agricultural sector continues to struggle with issues including low productivity, susceptibility to climate change, and inadequate access to financial resources. Investigating the Credit Barriers to Bank Lending in Pakistan's Agriculture Sector was the aim of this study. The effectiveness of present lending processes, as well as the role of banks in providing credit to agricultural consumers, and the socioeconomic implications of bank credit in agriculture, were also explored. In-depth semi-structured interviews were the primary technique of data collecting for this study, which followed a qualitative research design. A total of 33 representatives from the NRSP Micro Finance Bank, Zari Tarraqiati Bank Ltd., and National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) in the Bahawalpur region, as well as some of the bank's visiting clientele, were the participants of the study. Data was extracted and analyzed using thematic analysis to reveal recurring themes and trends. According to the findings, banks in Pakistan encountered some credit challenges when offering loans to the farm industry. There were societal issues, knowledge gaps, legal constraints, and financial challenges. Stakeholder perspectives, including those of bank employees and farmers, provided a thorough picture of the problems at hand. This research contributes to the literature by offering an in-depth analysis of credit restrictions in agricultural financing in Pakistan.
