“…For example, a study conducted by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in Kenya found that farmers who sold livestock were more likely to adopt new agricultural technologies (Adato & Meinzen-Dick, 2002), such as tractors and plows, compared to farmers who did not sell livestock (Adato & Meinzen-Dick, 2002). Another study, conducted by the World Bank in India, found that livestock sales were positively associated with the adoption of agricultural machinery, particularly in regions where livestock farming was an important source of income (Viswanathan et al, 2020). This research highlights the importance of livestock sales as a source of income and capital for farmers, and the role they play in promoting the adoption of agricultural machinery.…”

The adoption of advanced agricultural technologies is crucial in reducing poverty and improving food security on the developing economy countries. Despite the recognition of its importance, smallholder farmers in developing nations often face obstacles in adopting new technologies, leading to slow uptake. To better understand the factors that impact the use of agricultural technology in these nations, this study seeks to provide insights through a review of previous research on technology adoption. The results of the study highlight several key elements that determine whether or not agricultural technology is adopted, including factors related to the technology itself, the economic situation of farmers, the institutional and organizational affiliations of the farmers, and unique household factors. In order to fully comprehend the complexities involved in the adoption of agricultural technology, future research is recommended to include the perspectives and experiences of farmers. By considering their perceptions of new technologies, the range of factors influencing. The purpose of this paper is to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by smallholder farmers in adopting new technologies and to identify opportunities for improvement. By considering their perceptions of new technologies, the range of factors influencing technology adoption can be broadened, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the subject.

“…Climate change is also associated with increased land degradation, particularly soil salinization. Due to the predicted impact of climate change on the ability to produce food crops, there is an urgent need to improve the resilience and productivity of these crops to better suit the new climate (ABARES, 2021; Gowda et al., 2018; Viswanathan et al., 2020).…”

The changing climate poses significant threats to agriculture and the ability to ensure sufficient global food production. With the expanding population, there is an urgent demand to increase crop productivity to meet the rising food demand. Producing climate‐smart crop varieties together with developing new agronomic management strategies are strategies that may help address this issue. Recent advances in genomics‐assistant breeding, the use of high‐throughput DNA sequencing, high‐resolution phenotyping, and advanced genome engineering can support the development of advanced, climate resilient crops. Here, we assess the potential to enhance the resilience of crops under the changing climate. Through the use of big data, advanced breeding strategies, and advanced agriculture practices, crop varieties could be produced with enhanced resilience and increased productivity and nutrition, supporting future global food security.

“…Especially for rice farmers, the government has provided fertilizer subsidies which are distributed to villages in East Java Province. But whether this is a benefit that can be felt by farmers is still a debate among the opinions of farmers personally (Maulana, 2016;Viswanathan et al, 2020). In the short-term, inflation in this case has a negative effect.…”

This paper attempts to show that causality of the impact of macroeconomic factors in the form of inflation and gross domestic product on the farmer term of trade in East Java Province, Indonesia. This research was carried out over eleven years quarterly, starting from 2010-2021, and was analyzed using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The finding of this study indicated that, in the short and long term, inflation has a negative impact but not a significant effect. A 1% increase in inflation in the current period would have the impact of decreasing the term of trade of farmers by 0.0009% in the future period. This often happens due to the decline in the value of the currency which is mostly caused by speculator buyers who buy products from farmers. Meanwhile, a 1% increase in gross regional domestic product in the current period would have an increase in the farmer term of trade by 0.02% in the next period. This finding shows that inflation cannot be seen as extraordinary, affecting to the farmer’s term of trade. Rising inflation can lead to the decreasing level of farmers' welfare due to costs that must be paid by farmers.JEL Classification E31; J43; O11
