This community service program was motivated by the suboptimal development of agribusiness partnership patterns among farmer groups assisted by the Agricultural Extension Center (BPP) of East Dumai District, Dumai City, which has resulted in low productivity, limited value added, and weak bargaining power of farmers. The program aimed to enhance farmers’ understanding, capacity, and readiness to develop sustainable agribusiness partnership strategies. The method applied was a community organizing approach through counseling, participatory discussions, and mentoring involving five farmer groups with a total of 15 farmers. The results indicate an improvement in farmers’ understanding of agribusiness partnership concepts and models, a shift in mindset from individual to collective group-based farming, and the emergence of initial agreements to develop simple partnership schemes with local agribusiness actors. In addition, farmers showed increased readiness in managerial aspects, product quality improvement, and communication with potential partners. This program contributes to strengthening farmer group institutions and provides a foundation for developing more structured and sustainable agribusiness partnerships.

Corruption in Indonesia is a chronic problem that damages the social and economic structure of the country. This paper explores the history of corruption from feudal times to the modern era, highlighting corrupt practices as part of the culture of government. The government has taken serious steps by establishing anti-corruption regulations and institutions to eradicate corruption that harms society and the state. This research uses the literature study method with a focus on improving governance and increasing transparency as an effort to prevent corruption. Through qualitative analysis, this research evaluates the effectiveness of existing anti-corruption regulations and institutions, as well as understanding the impact of corruption on people's social and economic rights. The results show that the government has taken concrete steps, such as establishing the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and encouraging the use of information technology. However, the fight against corruption is faced with structural, cultural, instrumental and management barriers. Measures to improve governance and increase transparency are key to preventing corruption. Challenges include organized corruption, corrupt practices in the private sector, and non-compliance with regulations. Lack of resources is a constraint, and corruption in complex bureaucratic systems complicates case handling. Improving coordination, transparency, and public participation is needed to overcome these challenges.

The implementation of public sector accounting is very important to ensure transparency, efficiency and effectiveness in the financial management of government entities, including village governments. This study explores the extent to which the Karangrejo Village Government has adopted and implemented public sector accounting standards, procedures, and reporting practices in its financial system. This research includes studies on accounting policies, budgeting processes, and the smaller number of financial transactions of village governments compared to local governments. The results of the study indicate that the policies implemented by the Karangrejo village government are in accordance with applicable regulations and have been evaluated by accountants in presenting accountability reports. In addition, the village government has prepared financial reports, including balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow statements, which provide comprehensive information on village financial activities and assist in assessing village financial performance and accountability. The preparation of financial reports using a village-based accounting information system (SISKEUDES) also assists village officials in compiling financial accounting reports for village funds more seriously. This study concludes that the implementation of public sector accounting in the Karangrejo Village Government financial system in 2020 has increased financial transparency, accountability, and governance. However, there is still room for improvement, such as strengthening internal controls, increasing capacity building programs for village officials, and ensuring the sustainability of accounting practices that have been implemented.
