This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing the Government Food Reserve (CPP) program in supporting the food security of vulnerable families in Godog Village, Laren Subdistrict, Lamongan Regency. Since 2022, the CPP program has been designed to assist communities affected by food insecurity by providing food aid in the form of 10 kg rice packages. The study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. The focus lies on analyzing the program’s implementation and the factors influencing its success, using Edward III’s theory, which includes four key elements: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation involving beneficiaries, village officials, and aid distribution personnel. The findings indicate that the CPP program in Godog Village has significantly benefited vulnerable families by improving their food security but still faces several challenges. Good communication between the village government and the community, as well as the availability of resources, serve as the primary supporting factors for smooth aid distribution. Conversely, the main challenges arise from poor road infrastructure, which hampers aid distribution, and issues in updating the Beneficiary Family (KPM) data. The study recommends improving infrastructure and updating KPM data as strategic steps to enhance the program’s implementation effectiveness.

This research investigates the resilience of coastal communities in Desa Sukamulya, Kecamatan Paku Haji, in responding to the impacts of climate change. Using a quantitative approach with a survey method, data were collected from 40 respondents, including fishermen and coastal business actors. Findings reveal significant challenges faced by these communities, such as extreme weather, shifting fishing seasons, and declining fish catches, which negatively affect their economic sustainability. While awareness of climate change exists, gaps remain between understanding and actual adaptation efforts due to limited resources and inadequate infrastructure. The high dependency on fishing as a primary income source increases vulnerability, compounded by low savings, limited job diversification, and weak participation in social and cooperative networks. This study recommends enhancing livelihood diversification, improving coastal infrastructure, strengthening community organizations, providing climate education, and rehabilitating coastal ecosystems like mangroves and coral reefs. These strategies aim to bolster the resilience of coastal communities, ensuring better adaptation to climate change and the sustainability of their livelihoods.

Abstract. From the perspective of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), fluctuations in raw material prices are highly concerning as they can significantly impact business stability. While MSMEs may tolerate price fluctuations to some extent, from an industrial engineering perspective, such a passive approach contradicts the principles of continuous improvement. This study seeks to predict the price of large red chili peppers using five regression models implemented through Orange Data Mining: Linear Regression, Support Vector Machine, Decision Tree, k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN), and Gradient Boosting. Due to the limited availability of daily data, particularly within a daily timeframe, the study utilized weekly data spanning three years. The results of the Test and Score evaluation shows Gradient Boosting as the best-performing model, achieving a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 0.7%. However, the MAPE for predictions in January 2025 increased to 15.8%. This error is expected to decrease as more weekly data becomes available to mitigate the inaccuracies inherent in this model. Keywords: prediction, red chilli, regression, supervised learning , orange data mining. Abstrak.

This study aims to explore the root growth patterns of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cultivated in a polybag system, and examine the implications for nutrient absorption efficiency and plant survival. The method used was a systematic literature review, with narrative analysis of recent studies in the last five years. Data were analyzed to identify the relationship between root architecture, growing medium, and nutrient absorption efficiency.  The results showed that the polybag system, with its limited root growing space, promoted adaptation of root growth patterns, including an increase in lateral root density and a reduction in primary root length. Coconut fiber- and vermiculite-based growing media were shown to increase nutrient absorption capacity by up to 30%, while inoculation of rhizosphere microorganisms, such as mycorrhiza, increased phosphorus use efficiency by up to 25%. In addition, optimal root zone temperature plays an important role in supporting root metabolic activities.  The conclusion of this study confirms that optimizing root growth patterns through growing media, temperature management, and utilization of microorganisms can significantly increase the productivity of cucumber plants. These findings provide a basis for developing more efficient and sustainable cultivation strategies in modern horticultural systems.

Rancangan Undang-Undang (RUU) Ketahanan Keluarga yang sempat diusulkan dalam Prolegnas DPR RI menimbulkan kontroversi karena memuat pasal-pasal yang dihapus dari tafsir Islam konservatif, terutama dalam hal peran gender dalam keluarga. Di tengah masyarakat Indonesia yang plural dan multitafsir, RUU ini mencerminkan upaya negara dalam mengarahkan moralitas masyarakat berdasarkan interpretasi agama tertentu. Penelitian ini penting untuk melihat bagaimana legislasi menjadi arena produksi kebenaran moral yang berdampak langsung pada hubungan kekuasaan dalam rumah tangga serta posisi perempuan di ruang sosial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi pustaka dan analisis wacana kritis. Data diambil dari naskah RUU, pernyataan organisasi keagamaan, dan literatur akademik mengenai hukum keluarga dan gender dalam Islam. Analisisnya terfokus pada aspek empat: kontradiksi dengan prinsip kesetaraan gender, dominasi tafsir konservatif, fragmentasi respons ormas Islam, serta peran negara dalam menginstitusionalisasi tafsir agama. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa legislasi ini tidak netral, melainkan bermuatan ideologi dan politik. Oleh karena itu, hukum keluarga harus dirumuskan secara partisipatif, kontekstual, dan menjunjung nilai-nilai keadilan serta pluralisme. Peran masyarakat sipil dan ormas progresif menjadi sangat penting dalam menjaga demokrasi substantif. Kata kunci : legislasi, gender, tafsir Islam, negara, demokrasi.

Indonesia is the world's largest archipelago with a diversity of cultures that enrich its national identity. Among these cultures, the Bugis culture of South Sulawesi stands out for its rich traditions and deep maritime heritage. One of the major practice in Bugis identity is massompek, a centuries-old migration practice that reflects the Bugis ethos of resilience, self-reliance, courage and the search for a better life. Massompek brought Bugis communities to form influential diaspora networks in Indonesia and internationally, particularly in Malaysia. These diaspora communities contribute greatly to the local economy and trade, building strong social networks and encouraging cultural exchanges that reinforce their collective identity. This article examines massompek as a dynamic force shaping the Bugis diaspora, focusing on its cultural, economic and social impact in Malaysia. It also discusses the challenges of modernization and cultural preservation faced by younger generations of the Bugis diaspora and considers the role of the Indonesian and Malaysian governments in supporting the sustainability and integration of Bugis heritage through targeted cultural and economic initiatives.
